6. This Actor Appeared Twice…
Did you ever notice anything weird about the hunter in Jumanji? Besides the fact he was evil that is.
Van Pelt…
While watching the film, some eagle-eyed fans noticed that he looks eerily similar to Alan’s dad, Sam Parrish.

It turns out the same actor played both roles in the film, but the big question is –as it always is– why?
Sam Parrish…
The film had plenty of money left over in the budget, which it could have used to hire another actor – this means this double appearance was done intentionally.

Fans of course have come up with some good (and some wild) theories as to why this might be the case…
It’s all in his mind…
One of the most common beliefs is that the entire game is a figment of Alan’s imagination and due to his unresolved issues with his father, he begins seeing him in the form of Van Pelt.
