Oh, also, just so you know Freddy being a demon means Wes Craven's New Nightmare is the only canon Freddy in the Horrorverse and all the others were just movies. Except for Freddy vs Jason, that never happened in this continuity. You know, to avoid confusion.

It gets kinda meta and confusing, but basically, in New Nightmare it's revealed Freddy is actually a demon that was kept at bay by Nightmare on Elm Street movies (bear with me) and after the release of The Final Nightmare he was freed. The real-life actors, producers and directors then have to come together to make another Nightmare movie to stop Demon Freddy.

If you're wondering, the difference between Demon Freddy and the Movie Freddy is that Movie Freddy is goofier and likes to tell jokes while Demon Freddy just wants to kill and has a lot darker of a sense of humour, kinda like in the original Elm Street movie. Speaking of which, since New Nightmare is the only "real" thing in the Horrorverse that means Elm Street isn't a real place.

Did you understand all that? if not it's fine, feel free to ask questions.
