Ok, so what is Freddy Kruegar? A free spirit of some sort, maybe? IF any
one out there was actually silly enough to use this in a game, how would you
do it?

Just Curious...;-)

Besides, this'll probably annoy my GM, who's here on the list...

And I still can't find the perfect cheeseburger...:)

He's a shadow free spirit I guess. Pure evil and he eats babies. Then again
maybe he's a horror (everything else is! :-))

You're right. It does! :-)

Yeah he would be a free spirit, with a Dream Spell ability that does
damage.

I'm not sure how to classify Freddie. But, for anyone else that wants
information without renting all the movies check out:

Linkname: A Nightmare on the Web
Filename: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~rexerm/nightmare/

There's even a map of the town.
