According the The Hollywood Reporter, Bryan Fuller is developing a series that will serve as a prequel to Friday the 13th, called ‘Crystal Lake,’ which begs the question: How is that supposed to work when the drowning of Mrs. Voorhees’ (Betsy Palmer) son triggered all the murder (because, unlike what most people probably think, initially Jason not only wasn’t the killer and he actually died) that was to follow.
I’m sure it’s a wee detail that a really good writer can find some way to work around, though from where I sit it seems not an insignificant detail.
