Ameriško mestece pretresajo domnevni samomori najstnikov, ki med prebivalci povzročajo pravo histerijo. Nancy Thompson, hčerka lokalnega policista, odkrije, da je vzrok za njihove samomore Freddy Krueger. Ta je kot vrtnar delal v vrtcu in zlorabljal tamkajšnje otroke, ogorčeni starši pa so ga zato živega zažgali. Leta kasneje se je Freddyjev duh vrnil in začel v sanjah pobijati otroke svojih morilcev.
On Elm Street, Nancy Thompson and a group of her friends including Tina Gray, Rod Lane and Glen Lantz are being tormented by a clawed killer in their dreams named Freddy Krueger. Nancy must think quickly, as Freddy tries to pick off his victims one by one. When he has you in your sleep, who is there to save you?
