He doesn't say the teenagers, yet Jason goes after the teenagers, and only the teenagers, and not younger than teenage children.
Voorhees, Jason's mother, Freddy brings Jason back to life and sends him to Elm Street to punish "the children" for misbehaving. Freddy shows Jason a fantasy where he chases and kills a camper.ĭisguised as Mrs. By keeping the children in the town in the dark as to his existence, Freddy lost his power to invade their dreams, effectively ending his reign of terror.Īfter searching through Hell, he eventually found Jason Voorhees and decided to use Jason to make the kids remember him. In this context, he's obviously referring to teenagers (with the possible exception of the time between the 5th and 6th films), yet he talks like they are the same group of people he was targeting pre-death.Īfter his death in Freddy's Dead, Freddy Krueger was stuck in Hell, unable to return to the dreams of Springwood's children. He comments that after death, "the children" still feared him. Next, scenes from the first six movies are shown. Next, Freddy is shown being burned to death. He comments that dozens of children fell to his blades. Apparently, he did successfully kill many younger than teenage children between the fifth and sixth films, but this has never been shown, again for obvious reasons.) (Angela Walsh, who he tried, but failed, to kill post-death, was in this age range, but she doesn't count, because he didn't successfully kill her. Next, Freddy is shown making a scrapbook that includes photos of his pre-death victims, even the oldest of which are obviously younger than even the youngest of the teenagers he's shown killing post-death.
The actual murder isn't shown, for obvious reasons. As a narrator, Freddy explains that the fear from children (here apparently meaning anyone younger than 20) is what gives him his power.Ī pre-death Freddy is shown about to murder an obviously not teenage girl in the Boiler Room.
