First Jason Actor Ari Lehman Attending Convention This November

Friday fans know Ari Lehman well.  Ari has the distinction of being the first actor to ever portray the iconic Jason Voorhees on screen in the legendary closing scene of the original Friday the 13^th which sees him unexpectedly emerge from the waters of Crystal Lake behind final girl Alice Hardy and drag her back with him to the murky bottom.

Ari has been frequenting the convention scene for years, spending time with fans of the franchise and playing music with his band First Jason. Now he is joining the Dark History and Horror Con in Urbana, Illinois the weekend of November 16-18th.

Ari is great with the fans and always has plenty of items for fans to purchase and have signed. If you are in the area this November, make sure to stop in and say hello!
