Have you heard that poem before? If so, then you too may have been traumatized by the movie franchise that is Nightmare on Elm Street. The horror franchise has spawned nearly 10 films, and is considered one of the greatest horror stories of all time. Freddy Krueger, whom was played by Robert Englund, is at the forefront of the series, killing teen agers while they sleep. It scared folk all through these past 40 years the franchise existed, but it's just a movie right? Freddy can't hurt you...can he?
