Let's make this birthday one to remember.

83 years old (Born on December 31, 1941)

Happy Birthday, Sean S. Cunningham! You're the mastermind who turned a simple hockey mask into an iconic fashion statement and made summer camps terrifyingly unforgettable. Thanks to you, generations think twice before wandering off alone in the woods or taking midnight swims.

From producing "Last House on the Left" to directing "Friday the 13th," your knack for suspenseful storytelling has kept audiences delightfully sleepless for decades. Your legacy continues as new fans discover Jason Voorhees' timeless charm—proving once again that nothing says birthday cheer quite like a machete-wielding maniac!

Here's wishing you another year filled with screams (of joy)!
