It’s the first of two Friday the 13ths this year—today and, appropriately enough, in October, right in the heart of Spooky Season. And since it isFriday the 13th, there’s no better time than right now to post the latest addition to Horror Street, my ongoing journey in search of awesome yet spooky graffiti art on the streets and little-traveled corners of New York City!
Jason Voorhees, the murderous, hockey-mask-wearing star of the Friday the 13th movie franchise—including my favorite entry, Freddy vs. Jason—in which he goes toe-to-toe…er, machete to finger-knives with Freddy Krueger of Nightmare on Elm Street fame—is the subject of this piece of graffiti art that I came across in 2021, in a dead-end street (how appropriate!) in the East Williamsburg area of Brooklyn. I don’t know who the artist is—I can’t make out the signature—but the piece was too good notto take a picture of it!
Stay tuned for further installments of Horror Street—there’s plenty of macabre graffiti art to be found on the streets of New York, if you look in the right creepy places! And be sure to check out my previous HS entries, which include such sights as the Brooklyn Vampire, the demonic D-Rod, and the regal Griffin!
