Happy Friday the 13th, everyone! It’s a spooky Friday night, and what better way to celebrate than to see what our favorite horror villains would bring to the comedy stage? Imagine a world where Jason, Freddy, and Michael take a break from all that relentless slashing and instead try their hands at stand-up comedy. Here’s to hoping they leave their weapons backstage…or at least keep the jokes killer and not the crowd!
Jason Voorhees on Dating:
“I’m really bad at dating. Every time I try to swipe right, it’s with a machete! Not a great way to win hearts… or, well, keep them intact.”
Freddy Krueger on Sleep Patterns:
“People these days are obsessed with sleep trackers. I don’t need one — I just invade your nightmares and check in. Rest assured, I know exactly how many REM cycles you missed!”
Michael Myers on Halloween Decorations:
“My neighbor put up ‘Scary Michael Myers’ decorations this year. I went over to thank him, and he just fainted. People are so extra during Halloween!”
Pennywise on Childcare:
“Kids these days don’t want to play in the sewer with me. Apparently, they’re ‘too busy’ playing Minecraft. Honestly, who needs a creepy clown when they have skeletons in block form?”
Ghostface on Technology:
“Everyone freaks out when they get a call from an unknown number. But back in the ‘90s? Those were my golden years! Caller ID ruined my career, but thanks to spam calls, I’m making a comeback.”
Chucky on Toy Story:
“Toy Story was cute, but let’s be honest… those toys never had to deal with factory recalls. It’s not easy being a doll when everyone wants a refund.”
Hannibal Lecter on Fine Dining:
“People think I’m a picky eater, but really, I’m all about trying new things. I’m like, ‘Where’s the liver section?’ And no one finds that funny!”
Jigsaw on Escape Rooms:
“People pay money to get trapped in escape rooms now. Amateur hour, really. Back in my day, if you didn’t find the way out… you just didn’t get out. Period.”
Norman Bates on Family Dynamics:
“My mom and I had a close relationship. Some say it’s unhealthy, but they just don’t get it. She’s still with me… even when she’s not.”

Make it atmospheric, eerie, and funny.
