Jack Burrell

Jack Burrell was one of 7 Camp Counselors to get murdered by Mrs. Voorhees in the original Friday the 13th movie.

In 1979, Jack and his girlfriend Marice Cunningham was hired as Camp Counselours by Steve Christy and arrived to Camp Crystal Lake to fix the place before the opening. After fixing the place, the counselors relaxed at the beach where his friend Ned Rubinstein faked a drowning in order to get mouth-to-mouth by Brenda. When co-worker Alice Hardy found a snake inside her cabin, He rushed into the cabin with his shovel as weapon. When looking for the snake, he unintentionally knocks over a nightstand before unintentionally destroying a bed. The Snake was then killed by Bill. After a run-in with a Police officer, he and Marcie walks around the place and Marcie reavels a dream she had many times as kid about a storm. When the storm comes in, Jack and Marcie goes into Jack's cabin to have sex, not knowing that Ned's body was lying on the bunk above them. After having sex, Marcie leaved the cabin to pee and Jack relaxed by smoking a joint. Suddenly blood began dripping on his face (from Ned's body), and his head was grabbed by Mrs. Voorhees, who kills Jack by stabbing an arrow through the bed and through Jack's neck. His body was never seen, but in the original script, his body was found hanging in a tree after Steve Christy's body was found hanging in the same tree. In the original script, Jack's body along with the bodies of the other victims was hanging in a tree by the main cabin, rocking slowly in the sun.
