In both posts, the fictional character had a similar death count, weapon choice, crime scene and punishment. They differ in location, photo, detail and disclaimer. Other retellings have moved the legend to Brooklyn and Buffalo , N. The latest version of the post is accompanied by an old photo of a man in a fedora lurking behind several children as they pose for a photo.
The most glaring difference between the two posts is that Phariss does not disclose that the legend is untrue. More: Fact check: Ellen, Oprah, many others are not under house arrest for child sex trafficking. Phariss' version of the legend has unique details about how Krueger has haunted towns and killed children from beyond the grave.

Lightening Creek residents changed the town's name to Alluwe in After the U. Army Corps of Engineers bought the land to build Oologah Lake in the s, the town was moved and renamed New Alluwe.
The town is estimated to have lost half its population during the move. Part of where it shows is in the worldbuilding, and the lore surrounding Freddy. Different films seem to adhere to different rules, so there isn't total consistency in what he can do. This makes answering any questions in regards to why things are the way they are a little tricky, but not impossible. Freddy Krueger's backstory is a dark one. Essentially, when he was alive he was a child murderer. After he was able to evade going to prison, the parents of his victims and other children in the town decided to get their revenge.
They tracked him down and found the boiler room where he took his victims, trapped him there, and burned him alive. This is of course what gives him his burned features. This is the backstory established in the first film, and it's not made clear as to why he went from just a regular person to a dream demon.
Most of the supernatural rules established here revolve around when he can terrorize the teens, which is in their sleep only at this point, and how he can be beaten, but not how he gained these abilities. Viewers have to look to the later films, specifically to the very last film, for any real answers. His mother Amanda was a nun working at an asylum for the criminally deranged.
After accidentally being left with the inmates alone for some time, Amanda was found to have been sexually assaulted over times and found pregnant.
This gives Freddy the title "son of maniacs" and his DNA combined with an abusive home life made him into the human monster that he was when alive. And in Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare it is revealed that his powers to manipulate the dream world weren't given to him until after he was killed. The final film in the series shows Freddy as a man being killed, and what happened afterward. When there was no one left to kill, Freddy sought to leave Springwood — hoping to continue his murder spree in another town full of more children.
Only one person could arrange for this to happen — his daughter, Kathryn Krueger. Krueger used what was left of his supernatural powers to find his daughter, who was now an adult named "Maggie Burroughs" Lisa Zane and was working as a counselor to troubled teenagers in another city. Since her mother's death, Maggie was raised by adoptive parents and had suppressed the disturbing memories of her early childhood.
After catching up with Maggie, Krueger attempted to convince her to do his bidding. She proved, though, that a compulsion for murder was not hereditary and instead schemed with Doc Yaphet Kotto , her coworker and dream psychiatrist , to help destroy Krueger. After pulling him out of her dream and into reality, Maggie stabbed Krueger in the abdomen with his own glove and then shoved a pipe bomb into Krueger's chest, effectively killing him and releasing the dream demons that had given him his power.
The following is a list of times Freddy Krueger is killed or supposedly killed in each of the movies in the series. In the hybrid sequel, Freddy vs. Jason , Freddy was trapped in Hell. Figuring out how Krueger operated, the authorities and town officials covered up any and all traces of his prior existence, which included blacking out obituaries and quarantining anyone who had ever dreamed about, or had any knowledge of Krueger.
Other countermeasures included giving Hypnocil, a drug that prevents people from dreaming, to the children moved to Westin Hills. As a result, Springwood returned to obscurity and subsequently repopulated with no ill effects.
Meanwhile, Krueger was unable to escape the boundaries of Hell, thanks to the complete ignorance of his existence to the people of Springwood, and the use of Hypnocil to prevent those in Westin Hills from dreaming. Due to the fact that no one so much as knew of him, much less feared him, Freddy was unable to gain enough power to escape. Thus, Freddy hatched a plan to resurrect the undead, immortal killing machine, Jason Voorhees.
Then, in the disguise of Jason's mother, Pamela, Freddy manipulated Jason into rising from the dead once more and going to Elm Street to kill more teenagers.
Jason committed a few murders, which were then blamed on Krueger as planned. As a result, Krueger began to get his equilibrium back. Enough fear fell over Springwood to make Krueger strong enough to haunt the town again.
The problem, which Krueger had not counted on, was that Jason would not stop killing. He became irritated when Jason continued to slaughter "his kids" before he could.
Thus, a bloody fight ensued between the two murderous icons that raged from the dream world to the waking world at Jason's old haunt, Camp Crystal Lake. The film ends with Jason walking out of Crystal Lake holding Krueger's decapitated head, which he winks to the audience, followed by Krueger's laughter, indicating his reign of terror may not yet be over. In the movies, Freddy's arrival is usually preceded by children in the dreams of his victims. They chant a rhyme about Freddy that warns others to stay away from him.
One, two, Freddy's coming for you. Three, four, better lock your door. Five, six, grab your crucifix. Seven, eight, gonna stay up late. Nine, ten, never sleep again. Apart from about 20 children that he killed before he was burned alive by the parents of Elm Street, he killed around 40 after he fused with the dream demons and became able to enter dreams from
