welcome everyone Adam through here
0:14
coming to you from the canyons Southern
0:17
California I got my 3d glasses on
0:20
because today's subject matter coincides
0:23
with the film a horror film that was
0:28
released in the 3d format I'm gonna
0:32
check out the filming locations
0:33
of Friday the 13th part three should
0:40
probably take these off though because
0:41
they're very disorienting join me shall
0:48
you starting off on this road where the
0:50
van pulls down to park in front of
0:52
Vera's place looks considerably
0:54
different most the houses have been torn
0:56
down and new apartments have been put in
0:59
their place but right here is where the
1:03
kids were playing baseball on the road
1:06
really the only thing from this angle
1:08
that looks the same is this structure
1:12
here in the center of your screen notice
1:15
the unique angle of the roofline and the
1:17
windows still matches up it's about the
1:21
only thing in this section that you can
1:23
kind of compare from then till now her
1:26
house would have been here it's been
1:27
torn down but you can't see this
1:30
building in one of the frames and as
1:34
they meandered across the road those
1:36
trees in the tree line kinda sorta
1:40
matches up to what it looked like that
1:43
the van would have been parked right
1:46
down there near that corner just a few
1:48
feet back from where this car is now
1:51
parked between the two trees
1:54
in fact that house back there is the
1:57
same home
1:59
a little bit of growth obviously of the
2:02
trees over the years but that's where
2:04
the van is parked should also add in it
2:06
I don't have any cell phone reception it
2:11
should be okay maybe it's also
2:14
incredibly desolate the perfect place
2:18
for terror the spunky Canyon market here
2:25
in Green Valley this is where the
2:28
altercation was the bikers happened the
2:31
front of the building looks a little bit
2:33
different but if you shift over to the
2:35
left there are a few structures that
2:39
still look the same
2:40
pictured here and even this phone booth
2:45
is still on site it's interesting to
2:48
note they kept the same name just change
2:49
the states from New Jersey even though
2:53
this is California pictured inside
2:56
there's even a sign as States Green
2:59
Valley has everything including wildlife
3:01
on the t-shirt I was hoping they'd have
3:03
it in here but they no longer sell them
3:06
in fact they've removed the post office
3:08
boxes as well the counters been reshift
3:11
'add the whole indoors completely
3:14
different really hard to match anything
3:16
up by wandering around in here but this
3:19
inside here is where is where they had
3:22
the altercation they built this concrete
3:24
wall over the years but this is where
3:27
the bikes were toppled over and he was
3:30
very angry he started to go after them
3:32
but they had other things in mind they
3:35
turned the bug around and ran over his
3:38
motorcycle I brought my little toy
3:40
recreation bug to recreate the shot
3:44
nailed it it's filled up with bugs it's
3:48
like a attraction for them
3:50
for all the bugs you know you can't even
3:53
get in there use the phone because the
3:55
lights on so the phone still works
4:03
that's a middling course if you stab the
4:03
old one with the dial I think religion
4:05
or no maybe that's a piece of movie
4:09
history right as he was yelling at them
4:11
as they drove off off on the left there
4:15
used to be a building over here and I
4:18
was informed by the owner that it burned
4:21
down the guy at the store said that this
4:25
actually burned down that's the sound of
4:32
the car just notice about a block away
4:37
from the store are the old post office
4:41
boxes re shifted between then and now to
4:47
this area they're not all here and
4:49
they're not stacked in the same fashion
4:52
but what do you think I think they're
4:54
the same once just look at the design of
4:57
them pay close attention and now look at
5:02
current I yeah I think that's them at
5:07
least some of them look at that view
5:10
there is no guardrail next to the road
5:14
so you know be very cautious as you
5:17
drive along this route
5:19
very breathtaking however
5:25
nice at first glance you might think
5:25
that's crystal like a rest assured it's
5:28
not we're close but I repeat that is not
5:32
down there it's not Crystal Lake and
5:35
speaking of that body of water it can be
5:37
seen written on that very sign which
5:40
used to sit atop a building that was
5:44
once right here the very start of the
5:47
movie the couple owned this
5:50
establishment and just to the right of
5:52
the frame is where she had her laundry
5:54
hung out to dry at night but they were
5:58
still laundry hung out to dry
6:01
looks to be some of the foundation still
6:03
remains the camera panned by in this
6:06
fashion similar to the direction I'm
6:09
walking and you can even see this in the
6:13
movie this little chunk rock wall here
6:17
part of it's been chipped away but yeah
6:23
at least that remains one thing that's
6:25
kind of fascinating you can match up the
6:28
formation of how they placed the rocks
6:32
down in there now it's very very grown
6:35
over now in fact even the ground has
6:38
raised up considerably this was much
6:41
taller well in reality it's the same
6:45
height that's at the ground you know the
6:47
dirt has piled up over the years but
6:51
basically right behind all these weeds
6:53
is the one angle you can see when you
6:57
see Voorhees right there in the laundry
7:00
it was basically right here you can
7:05
match up you can match up those rocks
7:07
the camera would have been stationed
7:09
more at this distance but there you have
7:13
it that's what I'm referring to see his
7:15
hand there on the left and there's the
7:18
rocks I was describing when the police
7:21
pulled out they drove down this incline
7:24
and both cars parked somewhere in the
7:29
vicinity here just across the roadway
7:35
from that former building overlooking
7:37
the situation the van continues to drive
7:41
along the street on the top of that hill
7:44
look at that sunburst nice moving along
7:47
nothing to see here nothing to see bugs
7:52
out here I gotta say I'm very excited
7:54
about the next spot
7:55
we're in routes - Higgins Haven when
8:00
they first pull in the van dries up this
8:03
hill the dirt road you can see the
8:06
foliage there to the right all still
8:09
looks exactly the same I'm here today
8:11
with Heath fellow Friday the 13th fan
8:15
and he's standing where the Higgins
8:16
Haven sign would have been right there
8:21
your stanchion dinh the spot as we
8:24
passed this tree we're now heading
8:27
towards where the wooden bridge was they
8:31
built this embankment upward and you
8:33
could still see some of the concrete
8:36
pieces right here is where the van went
8:40
over that and towards the homestead
8:56
there was a piece of farm equipment in
8:56
the frame as well would have been right
8:59
there to the right and this log almost
9:03
looks like a dead log there's just a
9:07
little chunk left not the whole thing
9:10
just a piece but laying in the same spot
9:12
found a plank right there it's teetering
9:15
and you can see there's a nail keeping
9:20
something in place oh yeah there you go
9:24
that's a look at that check out that
9:26
bolt concrete foundation here as well
9:29
the interesting thing is the road that
9:31
went over this spot didn't even really
9:35
need to be here because there's another
9:37
road right over there
9:39
this was built specifically for the
9:41
movie here's a longer piece it's been
9:44
cut off at the end but it's about the
9:46
distance maybe if it went off and
9:48
their foot or two about where vehicle
9:50
could drive across a picture an
9:53
automobile would be just going right
9:55
along like that over that piece
9:57
necessary however to build the tension
9:59
later on as you know the film continues
10:02
this bridge will come in come into play
10:05
in 2006 the home they built specifically
10:09
for Friday 13th part three burned down
10:15
used to sit right over there it's very
10:23
quiet out here
10:49
used to be a porch extending out you see
10:49
the fireplace they are in the distance
10:52
and it's still here it's about the only
10:55
thing really noticeable that porch was
10:59
just a few feet above the ground in this
11:02
area here it was made as a two-story
11:07
structure but in reality it really
11:09
wasn't a second floor there was a spiral
11:11
staircase right smack-dab in the middle
11:14
there and a lot of action took place
11:17
right over here where there were a few
11:20
wooden stairs on top of this concrete
11:23
one and went into the side door which
11:26
was basically used for pretty much every
11:29
entrance into the home right about there
11:33
and from this angle you can see a
11:37
fireplace over there one of Jason's best
11:40
kills is where he grabs the scorching
11:43
hot poker from this fireplace and jabs
11:47
it right into the belly of chili
11:49
matching up let's take a look at some of
11:51
the rocks here on the right and the
11:54
formation of how they are compared to
11:58
current day yeah identical if you look
12:03
side-by-side see the long one there the
12:07
top one above it circular even this
12:08
little teeny tiny one in the middle
12:11
there it is the circular one at top the
12:15
long one and teeny tiny one I always
12:20
wanted to do this here bucket list
12:25
accomplished Rick and Chris standing at
12:29
the base of the stairs or should I say
12:32
former stairs I want you to pay close
12:35
attention to this indentation on the
12:39
concrete step right down there and if I
12:42
pan back just a little bit you can see
12:47
it
12:49
right here look closely there's that
12:53
little indentation when they are having
12:55
a discussion over the top of the
12:58
automobile this would have been Rick's
13:00
last view before his eyeball was popped
13:03
out of socket by jason voorhees who was
13:07
perched right here on the wooden stairs
13:12
and looked very very closely at these
13:19
particular rocks wouldn't stare just to
13:23
the right and Rick's feet were dangling
13:26
right in there in fact there's those
13:30
rocks
13:31
there's his feet and there is where the
13:36
feet were holy cow that's that's awesome
13:39
right what he's carrying off one of the
13:42
bodies you see the moose head and then
13:45
below the moose head I love matching
13:48
this stuff up so look directly below
13:51
where the moose head was hanging moose
13:53
head up there and what I was just
13:56
showing are these particular formations
14:00
and then over here are more that are
14:03
completely identical that would be to
14:05
the left of the moose head right there
14:08
so you look at those four or five rocks
14:11
and correlation going upward and that's
14:15
them whatever happened to that that cool
14:19
moose head this has sprung up to great
14:22
height since then as well but I was
14:25
noticing right in here where the porch
14:29
was this is where that swing sat right
14:34
in this little cubbyhole wedge between
14:37
that wall and the fireplace and the
14:42
porch would have gone straight ahead
14:46
that way if you exited the side door and
14:48
wandered tucked away over here in the
14:51
corner directly under this limb was the
14:55
outhouse see the way that Forks upward
15:00
the outhouse would be just to the left
15:03
of the trunk right there under that limb
15:06
I know what you've been waiting for
15:08
that's right the bard
15:22
I have to admit after seeing this on
15:22
screen so many times I'm slightly
15:26
slightly intimidated and nervous to go
15:30
in here you want to do the honors okay
15:48
oh my goodness Jason's barn and this is
15:48
the angle when he's looking at them from
15:52
across the way he's got the door just
15:54
barely opened and he's kind of looming
16:14
that's his field he's stalking them is
16:14
anyone out there
16:15
don't come in here trust me heed my
16:18
warning do not come in here he's looming
16:22
out this very window or at least he was
16:27
looming out this very window wait is
16:30
there guy out there walking on his hands
16:32
oh no just just my imagination
16:45
I didn't sanction sanction that idea the
16:45
original ladder was right here leading
16:48
straight up it has been removed over
16:52
time to the loft this is where he was
16:56
hoisting the hay up from the ground and
16:59
then eventually unbeknownst to him
17:02
hoisted Chris up
17:12
oh my goodness another fascinating thing
17:12
is right in here which is where Fox was
17:16
embedded with the pitchfork you can
17:20
still see the holes where the pitchfork
17:24
was shoved into the wood her neck right
17:28
there
17:28
in the middle while locals dead body was
17:33
laying right over to the left side
17:36
yeah he got impaled right in here and if
17:42
you match it up you could see that
17:44
corner piece there also shown here she
17:49
would have been right there even the
17:52
knot holes you can see knot hole there
17:56
one off to the side even one in this far
18:00
corner which you can faintly see in this
18:04
screenshot Wow where the ladder formerly
18:08
was from this angle pointing down it'd
18:11
be interesting to wait in this barn and
18:12
then when someone else walks in just
18:14
kick a little hay on him just like he
18:18
did to her in the movie and just to
18:20
think a few moments earlier she was
18:22
swinging around up there having a good
18:25
old time see that PVC pipe down there
18:27
that was a drainage section and look at
18:33
the embankment here you can see some
18:36
concrete a wall the makeshift dam has
18:41
been built and they dug out a little
18:44
trench hole right here filled it with
18:47
water from a well which has been making
18:51
all that noise
18:52
at the windmill finding a little more
18:57
concrete it stretched all the way back
19:00
to this edge of the property look down
19:04
here you can even see some remnants kind
19:07
of like a makeshift pool the dock
19:13
it's kind of off in the distance over
19:15
that way so this whole area here was
19:19
filled with water how cool is that a
19:24
crazy pipe drainage pipe that comes out
19:27
of Crystal Lake nice it's amazing all
19:31
this stuff is just sitting out here in
19:32
the California Sun I'm just waiting for
19:34
Pamela Voorhees to pop out at any moment
19:37
right
19:46
this windmill was not always here you
19:49
watched the movie you'll notice that
19:51
they had a little shed in its place
19:54
but look down there that is the dock as
19:58
pictured here and there's that little
20:01
shed where the windmill now stands it
20:03
extended out about probably three more
20:05
feet she was sitting right here the
20:08
ground was pushed down quite a ways and
20:13
the water was there but let's take a
20:17
detailed look at the remains that is
20:20
still sitting out here just kind of
20:25
rotting away you have to be careful for
20:29
snakes
20:29
especially this time of year lots of
20:32
insects and slithering creatures they
20:35
like to lie and wait under piles a wood
20:39
like this it's amazing because this
20:45
right here in this spot is Friday the
20:48
13th history because this is where Jason
20:53
Voorhees first showed up in the hockey
20:57
mask right here my freaking here very
21:02
tough to make it out through these
21:04
leaves but as I pull back you can get a
21:09
view of what it looked like back in 1982
21:13
right there she's just waiting at the
21:16
end of the dock which is the same angle
21:20
that I am right now there's the dock
21:23
right down there this is the tube this
21:27
tube was off but this tube this is for
21:29
the pump and this will from 1922 it's
21:32
one of the oldest wells in California it
21:35
can be used to pump the water from here
21:37
into Crystal Lake and with this
21:41
apparatus here which was connected over
21:43
there if you can see that part where the
21:45
PVC comes up yeah so that's where the
21:49
water for the lake came from absolutely
21:51
and the shed was over this exact spot
21:55
where this now
21:58
stands tall and proud and Wow another
22:01
sunburst
22:02
what I know this pump will still operate
22:05
in this day it will still pump water and
22:07
if you look here it's wet there's water
22:10
dripping how deep do you think that goes
22:12
oh it's got to be a good 50 feet because
22:16
it's got to go down into the water table
22:18
now it's hard to imagine by today's
22:19
standards but right here is where she
22:21
was wading in the water and grabbed his
22:24
wallet looked up and mr. Vorhees was
22:29
right here at this angle oh my gosh
22:38
standing right there between those two
22:42
poles just to give a little perspective
22:44
there you have it the second to the
22:49
right of the two poles on the dock is
22:52
where he was standing and there was a
22:53
taller wooden pole that protruded up
22:55
from it as you can see right there how
23:02
cool is that I'm just waiting for a
23:07
harpoon to be launched at us right as I
23:12
stand here and soak in the experience I
23:14
start to notice more and more things
23:16
like this old dead piece of wood that's
23:20
sitting here just to the side of the
23:23
dock and there it is at the feet of
23:27
Jason that's that old dead piece of wood
23:31
that's still here and it's been here for
23:35
36 years would you say that that's
23:41
awesome let's see that's incredible no
23:44
would you say it I because you get it
23:50
cuz it's made uh it's it's a tree for
23:52
those that might not know the folklore
23:54
of how the Friday the 13th mask was
23:58
given or taken by Jason it was because
24:02
Shelley
24:03
originally had it to play pranks on some
24:07
of his friends here he is looking in the
24:10
side of the barn window and there's a
24:13
few rocks that were built up a little
24:16
higher back then because he was looking
24:19
in that very window and then he wandered
24:21
around inside the barn and from then on
24:26
the mask was Jason's I have made it back
24:29
down into the gully the proper angle
24:33
where the bridge was to recreate the
24:36
chase scene and I have applied the
24:41
proper wardrobe to follow in his
24:45
footsteps and run along the same path
24:49
let's do this the bottom of this dry
25:25
riverbed looking this direction is where
25:29
he also continued the chase straight
25:32
ahead through the overgrown thicket is
25:35
where the van was stuck on the bridge
25:37
and he busted out the driver's side
25:39
window with his head and then chased her
25:43
down this direction he never stops he
25:49
never stops
26:03
he continues to run right along here up
26:03
this hill and appears to be maybe one of
26:06
the bikers motorcycles and then John
26:11
salong the side of the barn straight
26:14
that way doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
26:22
to to to to to to to to to to
26:26
doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo
26:28
doo
26:31
Kris was hiding across this section of
26:34
boards and there's only one but there
26:36
used to be two when she was on top of it
26:39
and then hopped straight down on top of
26:42
him right about at that angle you can
26:46
see the camera was on the ground facing
26:49
upward going into attack mode and the
26:52
roof the metal roof you know still looks
26:56
identical I think I'm gonna climb back
26:58
up to the loft open those top doors and
27:02
lay from this angle from up there yeah I
27:10
think that needs to happen I need to I
27:13
need to do that okay yes
27:24
yes yes right
27:39
after her terror had ended she walked up
27:39
to the shore grabbed a canoe and tried
27:43
to have a peaceful moment just about
27:45
here give or take
27:47
he could see the canoe she was resting
27:49
in and that conglomerate chunk that
27:53
almost looks like a an island back then
27:55
but now it just looks like normal
27:58
landscape during the dream sequence near
28:01
the top of the chimney over to the left
28:06
what would be the imaginary second floor
28:08
was a window the Jason was scratching at
28:13
right there look to the right of this
28:17
print out you can see the rocks from the
28:20
fireplace so the window would have been
28:24
right up there directly below it was
28:27
that doorway that he busted through and
28:30
there are some metal screws that held
28:34
the wooden stairs in place and really
28:38
the best way to match it up but the far
28:40
left of this rock wall was where the
28:44
door was and those stairs went upward
28:48
he's coming for us he's coming for us
28:51
with a vengeance it is amazing to think
28:54
that he was just gallivanting along
28:56
right through there but alas it was all
28:59
an illusion she was safe and sound in
29:04
that canoe right here until
29:11
da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
29:11
maggot-infested worm-ridden faced Pamela
