A Nightmare on Elm Street

About this game

A Nightmare on Elm Street is an unreleased NES game based on the film of the same name. In the game, you played as Freddy Krueger and your goal was to murder all the teens who are attempting to find your bones. The game was developed by Rare and planned to be published by LJN, however half way through development the game was scrapped and was restructured into a completely different game, possibly due to the dark nature of the game and Nintendo's strict guidelines from the time when it came to third party releases on the NES.
