*READ SYNOPSIS* The film completely ignores the 2010 reboot. At the beginning of the film the audience is enlightened that "A Nightmare on Elm Street 2" through "Freddy vs. Jason" was nothing but vivid dreams that Nancy Thompson suffered from. It is quickly explained that these films were not actual events, but merely nightmares that Nancy has suffered from since the original attacks by Freddy in 1984. Nancy is now married to a school teacher named Billy Carson, and has a son named Phillip, and two grandchildren, Michael and Marge (named after her great-grandmother). Nancy was not around for much of her son's life, because of her very lengthy mental health recovery program. Nancy has sworn to her husband and son, that she would make up for lost time by being there for her grandchildren. Nancy falls asleep one night, and as usual, begins to have a frantic nightmare about Freddy and her former high school friends. As usual, Nancy begins to toss and turn, but tells herself that these dreams are not actual events, like the one in 1984, but just merely bad memorys working against her. The next morning, while cooking breakfast, her husband spots three small scratches on her gown. Nancy begins to freak out, but her husband quickly eases her mind whenever he informs her that he placed their pet cat in the bed after she had fallen asleep. They both saw this as an easy explanation. Across the road, Phillip, Nancy's son, is trying his best to get his two children up and ready for school. Michael and Marge are way to busy discussing their strange dreams, and the two quickly realize that their dreams are very similar. Phillip is in a big hurry, and ignores both of them. They both go to school discussing their dreams with all of their classmates. After school, the children go to their grandmother's home. Nancy cooks them supper, and over hears their conversation. Nancy sits down and asks them both questions. She quickly realizes that Freddy has visited both of them, and becomes very frantic. That night, Nancy begins to have one of her usual pesky nightmares, but something seems different. Nancy notices that her son, Phillip, is in her dream. She watches him get murdered. The next morning she wakes up with dry blood splattered on her face. Her husband, once again, plays it off and comes up with a logical excuse. Nancy begins to accept the excuse, but quickly recalls her nightmare. She tells her husband that they must go to her son's home at once. They do. They find him dead, slaughtered, in his bed. Freddy has returned for the first time since 1984. These are no longer bad dreams in the mind of Nancy Thompson. This is real life, and Freddy won't stop until Nancy and her whole world is dead.
