Fear Level: Terrifying
Trigger Warnings: Jump scares, gaslighting, gore, cops, violence against women, knife trauma, alcoholism, metal on metal screeching Support us on our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/progressivelyhorrified In 1984, Wes Craven brought Robert Englund to haunt our dreams as the blade handed, dream haunting, gone but not forgotten psychopath Fred Krueger. To this day, he's been keeping kids awake late into the night. Luckily for us, one teen girl had a library card, access to shotgun shells, and a penchant for lucha libre.
