Nice neighborhood.

Anyway,

that's where it gets weird.

She says that he comes back

in dreams.

And if he kills you

in your dream...

you're dead for real.

Now I lay me down to sleep.

The master of dreams,

my soul I'll keep.

Dream master.

I think I remember the rhyme.

Kristen, get the hell

away from that house!

! Andale!

You don't have to go

if you don't want to.

I'll take care of you.

I better go.

OK...

but I'll call you tonight,

and we'll get through this.

Shotgun.

Something the matter

with the cuisine?

Well, Mom, I'll tell you...

when two of your friends

die in the same day...

let me know what it does

to your appetite.

You're just tired.

Don't think I haven't noticed

you aren't sleeping.

That has got to stop, honey.

What's wrong with me?

Adolescent anxiety.

That'll make it better.

Oh, God.

Mom, what did you do?

Jesus! Sleeping pills?

Look, Kristen, I'm sorry.

Sorry?

Sorry that you

and your tennis pals...

torched this guy,

and now he's after me?

In case you haven't been

keeping score...

it's his f***ing banquet,

and I'm the last course!

We went over this in therapy!

No, Mother.

You just murdered me.

Take that

to your goddamn therapy.

Dream someplace fun.

Thanks, Alice.

Hi, little girl.

- What's your name?

- Alice.

I have a friend named Alice.

Elm Street's last brat.

Farewell.

We beat you before!

And now you're all alone!

Kristen, why don't you...

call on one of

your little friends?

Maybe they could help.

Never!

I'm the last!

Why don't you reach out...

and cut someone?

How sweet.

Fresh meat.

Alice, wake up and get out!

Alice, I'm so sorry.

It was a mistake.

I pulled you in.

Alice, come to Daddy.

Leave her alone,

you son of a b*tch!

Now no one sleeps.

The souls of my children.

You'll need my power.

Are you OK?

Kristen...

we've gotta get to her house!

Oh, God! Kristen!

Let me go.

Hi, Alice.

Wish you were here.

Your horrible brother's

up to his old tricks.

Rick, as long as I've known you,

I've always wanted to ask...

what the hell this sh*t is

you put in your hair.

I want his body.

That's bullshit.

What else do you want?

She wants my body.

Alice, what are you doing?

I don't know.

It makes me feel better.

What are you doing?

Hello, baby.

Great.

You made her so happy then.

Until all this Freddy sh*t.

Why didn't I just stay with her?

It wouldn't have made

any difference.

Sure it would have.

No. I saw it happen in my dream.

There was this horrible man.

I don't wanna hear

about Freddy, OK?

I heard it all from Kristen,

so stop it.

I could smell the smoke.

I could feel the heat

from the fire.

- It wasn't a dream!

- Just stop it!

She wasn't crazy
