== Trivia == ===In-Game=== * Although Part 2 Jason in the film was smaller in size, this has now been corrected in-game where Part 2 Jason would have about the same size as the other Jasons; this is one of the few instances where the continuity has been fairly consistent as well as corrected in the game. * This was one of the three Jasons playable in the beta, the others being [[Jason (Part 3)|Part 3 Jason]] and [[Jason (Part 7)|Part 7 Jason]]. * This is the only Jason in-game that has Traps and Morph as strengths. * Originally, Part 2 Jason had Sense as a strength; this has now changed with him having Traps as a strength instead. ===In the films=== *In terms of how Jason Voorhees survived his drowning is up to many interpretations by fans of the series. The more likely and/or logical speculation is that Jason survived by being washed up elsewhere, or possibly faking his own drowning to start a new life in the woods, but unaware of his mother's whereabouts, as a result of him being constantly bullied by the other kids at the camp. **According to the Freddy vs. Jason vs. Ash comic (which isn't considered canon in the film series) his mother Pamela Voorhees had used the Necronomicon to resurrect him from the lake; unbeknownst to her it worked, but she wouldn't find out until after her death. *As his debut for being the main character throughout the series, this was, in contrast, the first (as well as only) appearance of him not donning his iconic hockey mask which was introduced in ''Part 3''. However, this is excluded if you count Jason's young appearance in the first film. *Although to this day this remains unconfirmed whether or not this was an inspiration, the sack that Jason uses to conceal his identity was largely similar to "The Phantom Killer" from ''The Town that Dreaded Sundown'' (1976). Unlike Jason, the Phantom Killer's sack had two eye-holes instead of the one that Jason has. **Jason's appearance of him wearing a sack is also very similar to the appearance of John Merrick, the main character of ''The Elephant Man'' (1980) who wore a sack over his face. According to ''Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History of Friday the 13th'', ''The Elephant Man'' was released a year prior and was acclaimed and recognized by critics and audiences alike, so much that when Part 2 was released the following year, many of the audiences were drawing similarities to Jason's sack-wearing appearance to the character of John Merrick. **The death sequences of Mark, Jeff, and Sandra were largely similar to two particular death sequences in ''A Bay of Blood'' (1971), also known as ''Twitch of the Death Nerve'', alternatively. Much like with Jason's sack, this aspect has remained unconfirmed whether or not these deaths were directly ripped off of the latter film, or it was rather a coincidence that this was placed in the film. *In the film, Jason Voorhees was played by two actors. While unmasked, he was played by Warrington Gillette, and when masked, he was played by Steve Daskewisz. His facial appearance was modeled by Carl Fullerton.
