When Friday The 13th Occurs During The Coronapocalypse

Usually when Friday the 13th rolls around, horror fans on Twitter celebrate with photos of Jason Voorhees and other spooky GIFs and videos. Unfortunately, this Friday the 13th has landed during the Coronavirus pandemic which is pretty much all anyone can think about, as it dramatically alters our global health and well-being. As countless events around the world continue to be cancelled due to the dangerous virus, many people are now starting a journey of self-isolation to combat it. While the news has only caused unease and an increase in anxiety, it was nice to see many Twitter users finding a way to crack jokes and find a way to celebrate one of the scariest holidays in an already horror-filled week. Below are some of favorites that we found after #Fridaythe13th and #Coronapocalypse began to trend.
