As a young boy, Jason was often bullied and teased relentlessly by fellow campers and often ignored by counselors due to his disfiguring appearance and the only one who showed him any sympathy was his mother alone.

After his supposed drowning and Pamela's massacre and eventual death (which he witnessed), Jason eventually grew up into a deeply disturbed and misanthropic individual. Jason is shown to prefer to isolate himself from others and was horribly territorial as he would kill anyone who stepped foot on his turf. He lacks little if any empathy for his victims as he only has sympathy for his mother.

Despite his disfigurements, Jason is not at all foolish and is extremely skilled at tricking and outsmarting his victims. He is also a resourceful and skilled hunter as he became somewhat of a survivalist living in the woods on his own. Despite this, Jason has a very short temper and if irritated in the slightest will often lash out in anger and become extremely violent (evidenced by his memory of his mothers decapitation, which resulted in him lashing out).

Jason is also highly deluded and mentally broken as he comes to think that Whitney Miller is his mother which is why he keeps her chained in his lair, reminding him of the only person who showed him any love. His love for his mother is the only empathy Jason has which is shown as he always has her locket with him and why he keeps her decapitated head or any remnants of her in general.
