Friday the 13th film series free streaming on Pluto TV, Digi Mart USA News: The final Friday the 13th of 2026 falls this month, and many horror fans are planning to binge films from the franchise for the occasion. Following the debut of Crystal Lake last month on Peacock, the original series of feature films is available to stream for free.
Just in time for Friday the 13th, Pluto TV has made the first eight Friday the 13th movies available to stream. Viewers may watch these films with a different perspective after Crystal Lake, which serves as a prequel story to the films.
Pluto TV’s collection includes all of the installments released in the 1980s, which were distributed by Paramount Pictures before the franchise moved to New Line Cinema.
Pluto TV is currently the only streaming platform offering all eight of the Paramount movies for free. They are also available to subscribers on Paramount+ and AMC+, but require a paid subscription.
Peacock users may be able to stream the first three movies after watching Crystal Lake, but would need to switch to another streamer to watch the rest. Pluto TV is making it simple by having them all in one place for free on the big day.
The original Friday the 13th film from 1980 may feel particularly different for viewers after watching the events of Crystal Lake. In the movie, very little is told about Pam Voorhees’ (Betsy Palmer) backstory.
Crystal Lake reveals major details about what caused her descent into madness, along with how Jason came to be. The Peacock series also includes some major nods to Friday the 13th Part II.
While it is not exactly clear what is next for the franchise, the future appears bright. Crystal Lake was a hit for Peacock, with good chances of a renewal for Season 2. There are also plans to make more Friday the 13th movies, though it has not yet been officially announced when the next feature film will be released.
The success of Crystal Lake may give the next movie added momentum.
