It is just as well the series hasn't since it turns out A Nightmare On Elm Street's chronology makes Freddy far younger than a lot of viewers may expect. According to A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors, Freddy was born in 1942 and burned to death in 1968, making him only 26 when he died.
Early Life. Born in May 1942, Frederick Charles Krueger was conceived after nun Amanda Krueger was raped by over one hundred maniacs, eventually leading to the birth of her son, Freddy. Raised by Amanda and her alcoholic partner, Mr.
Like many supernatural slashers, Freddy Krueger was killed prior to his screen debut in A Nightmare On Elm Street. After killing dozens of children, Freddy was burned to death by the angry parents of Springwood, then returned in their surviving kids' dreams to get revenge.
Jason ultimately defeats Freddy despite appearing to die in the process, stabbing him with Freddy's own claws before falling into Crystal Lake, though if he did this to continue battling Freddy or for some reason save Lori for saving him earlier is unknown.
After accidentally being left with the inmates alone for some time, Amanda was found to have been sexually assaulted over 100 times and found pregnant. This gives Freddy the title "son of 100 maniacs" and his DNA combined with an abusive home life made him into the human monster that he was when alive.
Freddy is a dream-demon who attacks his victims from within their dreams. He is commonly identified by his burned, disfigured face, red-and-green striped sweater, brown fedora, and trademark metal-clawed brown leather glove only on his right hand.
Consequently, fire is one of the few things he fears. In his dream world, Freddy is invincible. However, when Freddy is pulled into the real world, he is the most vulnerable and can be killed.
It all starts in Freddy's nightmare realm. Because they are somewhere that Freddy is all-powerful, he taunts Jason with this iconic quote, letting him know he is in his world, and has no chance of winning while they are there.
Freddy tries to kill Gibb in a nightmare, but Jason kills her first in the real world along with others at the rave, angering Freddy, who realizes that Jason's killing spree will deny him victims.
Does intelligence really matter in this epic match-up of two of the most notorious killers of horror yesteryear? Certainly, it does. Freddy Krueger will out-wit Michael Meyers, brains over brawn. He is a cunning manipulator and antagonist, playing on Michael's emotions and luring him into a world of confusion.
When anyone thinks of Jason, the image of the iconic hockey mask instantly comes to mind. However, for the fans, the face behind the mask is always a highlight. Usually saved until the climactic final act, Jason's face is revealed, and over the course of eleven movies, each unmasked Jason is unique to each film.
In A Nightmare on Elm Street, Freddy is introduced as a serial child killer, Fred Krueger, from the fictitious town of Springwood, Ohio, who kills his victims with a bladed leather glove he crafted in a boiler room where he used to take his 20 victims.
Freddy Krueger (63 kills) Freddy Krueger, the child abuser and murderer from A Nightmare on Elm Street, has managed to rack up over 60 kills throughout his almost 40 years on-screen.
In the origin version he simply murdered them, using his iconic slasher hand. It was never implied that he raped them or molested them. He was murdered by the parents of Springwood after he was released on a technicality. in the newest edition from 2010, they made it clear Freddie was also molested children.
Hulk may be unkillable when he is awake, but as a sleeping Bruce Banner he is filled with nothing but fear, and Freddy Krueger would use every ounce of that fear against him. If Banner turned into Hulk during the dream, that would only serve Freddy Krueger even better.
Micheal is a mass murderer and all but not only is Freddy that, he's also a soul stealer, has killed far more children and is an implied pedophille. Freddy Krueger is just another sadistic killer whereas Michael Myers literally represents the concept of pure evil.
In Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare (1991) it is established that Krueger gets his powers from dream demons and can be killed by pulling him out of the dream world. His secret daughter Maggie (Lisa Zane) ends up luring him into reality, blowing him up with a pipe bomb, and freeing the demons.
Despite the fact that he sometimes uses it to kill his victims, Freddy appears to be afraid of fire (as it was by fire that he died his mortal death). If fire is used against him in a dream, he can be pulled into the waking world.

With Jason's fear being water, Freddy could very well have turned him into a fish in a lake being torn to shreds by a larger fish. Jason is no chump, he withstood plenty of what Freddy threw at him, but Jason gave everything he had in exchange.
Frederick Charles "Freddy" Krueger is the main antagonist of the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise and the titular main antagonist of the crossover film Freddy vs. Jason.
