    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Though they share the same title, this series is not linked to the Friday the 13th movie series. The main characters search for magically-cursed objects that were sold through their uncle's store. Reportedly, the last item that was supposed to be retrieved by the characters in the series finale was to be a hockey mask which would undoubtedly have belonged to Jason Voorhees. While the show's crew did play with the idea of having a hockey mask in one of the episodes as an in-joke, there was never any serious intention to tie the film series with the television series.
    • Goofs
      In the first few episodes of season 1 the shot of the Curious Goods store front has the same woman dressed in white walk by and stop to look in the store window.
    • Quotes

      Uncle Lewis: [to Jack] I'll send you straight to hell!

    • Crazy credits
      During the end credits, there is a shot of the item featured in each episode.
    • Connections
      Featured in Never Sleep Again: The Elm Street Legacy (2010)

    Love Friday the 13th The Series!
    My husband and I use to watch it every chance we'd get. Unfortunately, we can't seem to find it any where on re-runs.

    I'm hoping to purchase the series on DVD, if available, so that we can enjoy it anytime we wish.

    All it takes is one episode and you're hooked! We thought it was going to be more of a horror show and were pleasantly surprised it wasn't. It was a cross between the X Files and Twillight Zone.

    We can't understand why more people don't know about this wonderful show. Maybe we'll get lucky and someone will make a movie out of the show. I'd go see it!!!
