Biography[]

Lana was a waitress at a diner located somewhere in southern New Jersey in the late 1980s. She dated an ambulance driver named Billy, who picked up her up one night for a date. Lana prepped herself in the bathroom, which involved flashing her breasts to herself in front of a mirror then closed up the shop.

When she went outside, Billy was nowhere to be found. She went into his car and found some of his cocaine, which she snorted. Just then, masked murderer Roy Burns appeared, having already killed Billy. Lana screamed in horror and tried to escape, but Roy hacked her in the chest with an axe, killing her. [1]

Notes & Trivia[]

  • The Friday the 13th wiki gives Lana's surname as Ardsley, though she is never identified as such in the film.
  • When flashing her breasts to herself, Lana exclaimed "It's showtime!" The impetus behind this is unclear. Perhaps acts of vanity and narcissism followed by unwarranted exclamations was a common trait among Jersey girls from the 1980s.
