Don't let him catch you sleeping!
Created by Jeff Freilich, Wes Craven
On Syndication
A horror anthology hosted by Freddy Krueger that trades the dream-logic intensity of the films for episodic tales of death and evil, balancing genuine dread with campy host-driven playfulness.
The evil, sinister killer of the "Nightmare On Elm Street" movies, Freddy Krueger, hosts this show, where each week, he shows us a tale of evil and death about the lives of people who live in Springwood.
