The New York City Murders (2023)[]
Jason Carvey stole the photo of "Reggie" and opened an account on dating app "Flirtr", so he could match with his soon-to-be-victim Laura Crane. It is unknown if he made the name "Reggie" up as a subtle reference of Richie Kirsch, or the man in the photo was indeed named Reggie. It is also unknown if "Reggie" was a previous victim of Jason and Greg Bruckner, but it is likely that Jason only imposed as him, considering Laura was later implied as Jason's first victim. Nevertheless, "Reggie" and Laura were soon matched on the dating app, they then agreed to meet up on a date in a restaurant, Hasta El Fuego.
While waiting for "Reggie" in the restaurant, his photo was shown on Laura's phone when she received a call from him. During the phone call, "Reggie" claimed he was a block away from the restaurant, but was unable to find it, and proceeded to lure Laura out. Once Laura left the restaurant, she headed to a dark ally, where Jason appeared as Ghostface and murdered her.
