At 18, Amanda Krueger decided to become a nun. Her name in Christ was to be known as "Sister Mary Helena." Her first assignment as a nun was to go to the tower (where the most insane were locked up) in Westin Hills. Only a few days away from Christmas, Amanda was accidently locked in the tower when the guards were in a hurry to go home to their families. The inmates kept her hidden for several days, brutally raping and beating her. When she was finally found, she was barely alive, and pregnant.

In September After a breech birth, Fred Charles Krueger was born. Amanda decides to raise him, and the convent allows her to stay as a nun. When Freddy reached the age of 10 he started to display eccentric and even sociopathic tendencies. (playing alone and hurting small animals) At 11, Freddy became a ward of the state after slicing his mother's leg with a kitchen knife. He found his first beat up fedora(hat) outside of a grocery store when he was 17. When he was 18 he went to work as a janitor at Springwood High. He also met and began to date Loretta Johnson, a waitress at a nearby diner. 3 months later he married Loretta Johnson. 5 years into the marriage they had a daughter named Katherine. Freddy or also known as the Springwood Slasher was estimated to have killed 20-30 children while he was alive. When his wife uncovered his secret he strangled her to death and his daughter was taken to an adoption home. Freddy then fled the law.

When Freddy was finally captured in trial it was revealed that the arrest warrant for Freddy was not signed in the proper place so he was released. The parents swore revenge. That night, a mob of angry parents including Lt. Thompson and his wife Marge, Richard Lane and his wife, Walter Lantz, and Doug Parker, among others, collared Freddy in his boiler room and burnt him to death. But the parents were too late to save the life of 6 year old Melissa Roberts, Freddy's last victim. Amanda Krueger died around the same time. After hearing about what happened in the trial, she lost her mind and hung herself allegedly, but no body was ever found. After that Freddy was back and he began stalking people in their dreams and killing them.
