In the United States, the first episode of the series originally aired on September 28, 1987.[1] The series billed as The 13th Hour before Mancuso, Jr. decided to change the name to Friday the 13th in an effort to draw upon the popularity of the film franchise.

While Lewis was running the antique store, he made a deal with the Devil to sell cursed antiques in exchange for immortality and wealth. Now Micki and Ryan spend their time tracking down all of the sold antiques, which negatively influence their owners. Along the way, Micki and Ryan receive help in their endeavor from a former stage magician named Jack Marshak (Chris Wiggins), and Johnny Ventura (Steve Monarque).
