Freddy’s Nightmares was a television series spawned from the hit Nightmare on Elm Street movie series. The Freddy’s Nightmares series premiered on October 9, 1988; and starred none other than the man himself, Robert Englund.

The pilot episode was entitled “No More Mr. Nice Guy,” and was directed by another big name in horror, Tobe Hooper. It all begins as Freddy goes on the trial of his life. But the arresting officer, whose beautify twin daughters live in terror of Freddy, forgot to real the accused his rights. Before you can say “you have the right to remain silent,” Freddy’s free... and everybody’s screaming. And bent on terminating Freddy permanently. But as fright fans know, Freddy’s going to have the last laugh-if not on this side of the grave.

The Springwood neighbors think their problems are over-until Freddy returns in their dreams.

After that. Freddy’s Nightmares ran for two seasons, and with a total of 44 episodes, was cancelled on February 9, 1990.

Trivia:

39 minutes 40 seconds into the episode "Dreams That Kill" a "Dr. Craven" is paged on the PA system. This is, of course, a reference to Wes Craven, the creator and director of the original _Nightmare on Elm Street, A (1984)_ movie.
