You are both wrong and right at the same time.

The Psycho character in Terraria references Michael Myers from the horror film franchise Halloween. The name Psycho was derived from the film Halloween taking inspiration from Alfred Hitchcock's film, Psycho. But... Although this character references Michael Myers, he actually does look like Jason Voorhees instead.

Let's compare their appearance:


 * For the head, Michael Myers wears a full paper mache mask that covers neck and ears, only thing it leaves exposed is hair which Michael actually has. Jason Voorhees wears a hockey mask which is pretty much just a disc covering only the front of the face and is held by a visible black garter band going around the back of the head. Jason is bald. Pyscho definitely has Jason's head.


 * For the outfit, Michael Myers wears a one-piece full body jump suit, like what mechanics often wear, in some films his suit seems greenish but in some it looks bluish. Jason Voorhees wears a green button shirt on his first film appearance then wears a black shirt with a green jacket over it for most of the other films. He wears jeans and then boots. Psycho's outfit definitely looks more like Jason Voorhees.

It's possible Terraria's developers did this on purpose to reference 2 characters at the same time but if we base it on the name, this is definitely referencing Michael Myers... and yes, I am a horror movie nut. Or maybe a movie geek in general. XD
