I'm a huge collector of Freddy Krueger and Nightmare On Elm Street stuff, and when I got this book, I was just blown away. The great pictures and behind the scenes made it excelent! email me if you wanna talk Freddy!

If you love Freddy Kruger then this book is a must! It shows many secrets of each films from 1-6.

This is a must with great pictures and biographies of each cast member and a large amount of pictures,charts and biographies on each film from: A Nightmare on Elm St -to- Freddy'd Dead

This is the ultimate collectors item for any Nightmare fan. A good variety of pictures from each of the movies (Nightmares 1 thru Freddy's Dead), plus some good insight into some of the special FX that went into the movies.

The only real problem I had was, if your a devoted NOES fan like I am, you will notice a lot of minor mistakes throughout the book. For instance, Lisa, from Nightmare 2, is listed as Lisa Poletti, but in the movie her name is Lisa Webber.

Other than the few minor mistakes, this book is definetly worth picking up!

This book has everything you need to know about Freddy Krueger and all the Nightmare on elm street films! This book is not missing one detail! Its has a summary of every Krueger Film! It also has ever picture from all the Krueger films including behind the scene footage! It is the best Freddy Krueger book ever made!!!!

I bought this book for my boyfriend for his birthday. He's a huge Freddy Krueger fan and knows a lot about the character and the movies. I was so happy that this book taught him a few things about the movies, how they were made and the history of the character. The pictures are great too, even though some of them are in black and white.

This is a good reference for Nightmare on Elm Street fans and collectors. It contains both color and B&W still photos, lots of trivia and behind the scenes facts, etc.

I wish they'd update this and bring into a full-color format with a more modern media-centric look, and add material From New Nightmare and Freddy vs. Jason. As it is, it covers up through Freddy's Dead, the Final Nightmare, and is relatively complete.

It's hard to come by, but is great for the completist if you can get your hands on a copy.

This book isn't so much the official history of Freddy Krueger, but it is the best sorce of information on the Nightmare On Elm Street films. This book is loaded with pictures taken from the films, and includes many behind the scenes photos as well. It features interviews with Wes Craven, Robert Shaye, Robert Englund, and many other of the NOES directors and special effects members. Find out interesting things like, the alternative endings to the films, how they did the special effects and even the movies budgets. This book has it all. No true Nightmare On Elm Street fan should be with out it.

All the NOES fans on the 'net said that "this is the book to get!" if you were a big fan of the series, so of course I got it. It has TONS of info on the behind-the-scenes of the movies stuff, but it doesn't delve into the characters and their histories, really, which is what I was looking for. It's pretty good for an NOES book by itself, I mean it DOES have tons of info, but it wasn't the book I was looking for. Also, being the picky fan I am, several times they got their facts wrong, like calling Nancy "Alice" amongst others. But, other than that, a great book if you want to know what went on behind the minds and scenes of the Nightmare On Elm Street series!
