During a party thrown in celebration of the latest installment of the famous horror series Friday the 13th, one of the franchise’s original stars was injured and taken to the hospital.

Warrington Gillette, who played the original Jason Voorhees in Friday the 13th Part 2, attended the party in full Jason costume and took the stage as part of a joke to frighten attendees.

However, his plan went south when a female partygoer jumped on stage and tried to wrestle an axe he was holding to the ground, reenacting bits from the cult series, which resulted in Gillette cutting open his hand.

A source tells New York Post gossip column PageSix, “She jumped on stage and tried to grab his axe. It was straight out of a horror movie. Lingerie-clad models were running and screaming, as a blood-soaked Jason ran off the runway to get to a hospital.”

Gillette was the first of ten total actors to play the famous hockey mask-wearing villain Jason Voorhees over the series’ 12 films, Derek Mears playing the latest incarnation of the mass murderer in the Michael Bay-produced remake of the Friday the 13th.

The film opened this past Friday, February 13th and earned $45.2 million its opening weekend.
