Taking place five years after the first film, Part 2 follows a similar premise, with an unknown stalker killing a group of camp counslers at a training camp near Crystal Lake. The film marks the debut of Jason Voorhees as the series' main antagonist. Originally, Friday the 13th Part 2 was intended to be an anthology film based on the Friday the 13th superstition.
