Friday The 13th - Filming Locations - Finding Original Camp Crystal Lake

Date: August 31, 2012 Duration: 7m 10s
http://www.AdamTheWoo.com - PLEASE RATE & SUBSCRIBE - I decided to visit some of the spots from the very first Friday the 13th film. I went a different direction with this video and just showed raw footage instead of overlaying film stock and sound effects. I felt that since so many others have done these spots before me its only fair to give them credit and not overdo my version. Enjoy !
Watch on YouTube
