ARI LEHMAN is the actor/singer who has the unique honor of having played the role of the First Jason Voorhees in the Paramount Classic Horror Film "Friday the 13th" (1980). The original "Boy In The Lake" himself, Ari played a crucial role in the film's famous final scene, in which he suddenly emerges from the icy waters of Crystal Lake.
Appeared as horror characters Jason, Michael Myers, and Leatherface on film.
The decision to cast Mayhew as Chewbacca proved wise. The giant actor threw himself into the role with great determination.

On May 9th, 1980 a horror Icon was born.
Help us celebrate 30 years of Friday the 13th!
Thirty years ago a screen play by Victor Miller under the direction of Sean S. Cunningham brought forth a horror cult classic known as Friday the 13th. This ground breaking film was poorly received by film critics, despite their opinions it went on to become one of the most profitable slasher films in cinema history. It was also the first movie of its kind to secure distribution in the USA by a major studio.
Rock out to the metal sounds of First Jason and Soul Feeders, meet Friday the 13th celebrities, enjoy one of a kind panel discussions, and find out what might be next for our beloved hockey mask wearing killer!

We are honored to host the launch of "The Wererat's Tale" book one of a new trilogy in the Abyss Walker world by Author Sir Shane Moore's and Published by Skullvines Press
Author
Sir Shane Moore
Actor
Peter Mayhew
January 14th, 2008. Shane retires from his police career to be a professional novelist. His Abyss Walker series has spawned two franchise writers; renown novelist and playwright, Roy C. Booth and up and coming novelist, Dave Barlow. The series has spawned five graphic novel spin offs with artists from Marvel and Gene Simmonss Dominatrix writer, Sean Taylor.
In August 2009, Shane released book five in his Abyss Walker series with the debut appearance of a character modeled after Peter Mayhew (Chewbacca from Star Wars.)
Abyss Walker Artists
Kendall R. Hart wears many hats as well as a Stormtrooper helmet. By day he is the senior graphic designer for a conglomeration of athletic companies with clients such as Nike, adidas, Speedo and Asics. But under the Dark Side of the Moon he creates fantastic sculptures and paintings depicting a world wilder than our own. Visit him (and fellow artist/soulmate Rae Goss) online at grimstonestudios.com and maskedmayhem.deviantart.com
(Never approach him from his blindside as he will instinctively lash out when startled with his patented Delayed Death Touch Attack, capable of killing a healthy adult male within 40 years.)
Billys ability to bring characters to life on canvas and paper caught the attention of best-selling author Shane Moore who dubbed him Duco-Letum (Painter of Death) and named him Official Artist of his Abyss Walker Series.
Utilizing his talents in both graphic design and traditional art, Billy has unearthed a line of graphic Ts emblazoned with the denizens of the vast and forbidding wasteland known as his Imagination.
Terry Naughton is a former animator with Walt Disney Studios. Now Im a freelance illustrator. I was with Disney for 17 years, and worked on almost every feature film produced from 1985 till 2002. Some of my credits include, the Beast in Beauty and the Beast, the Genie in Aladdin and Zazu in the Lion King to name a few.
