A Nightmare on Elm Street The Series Freddy’s Nightmares The Complete Series 2 Seasons with 44 Episodes on 6 Blu-ray Discs in 720p HD
Set Breakdown:
This is the complete series with 2 Seasons 44 Episodes in 720p which had been upscaled to clean out as many imperfections as I can. The episodes are presented in air date order.
There is an interactive menu so you can easily choose whichever episode you would like as well as chapter skips within each episode.
As always the highest quality paper, case and media are used in the creation of this set.

Story:
Each week Freddy’s Nightmares told a different story of a dark rooted and/or grim nature that took place in the fictitious town of Springwood, Ohio, and in particular, on Elm Street; the same setting as the A Nightmare on Elm Street films. Though the Freddy Krueger character would occasionally play a part in the plot, most of the stories did not involve him (it was, however, often hinted that Krueger indirectly influenced the desolate nature of the plotlines).
Similar to the Crypt Keeper in Tales from the Crypt, Krueger’s primary function was to host the series. He was featured in regular bumper segments, where he would offer an ominous or slapstick reaction to the happenings of the episode—culminating in him giving a quick, and usually eerie, epilogue at the end.
One element that makes the series unique is its two-tier story approach. Most of the episodes feature two different stories that each take up the first and second halves. Every second story, however, usually built on a character who played a minor (or supporting) role in the first.
Several episodes throughout the second season form mini-arcs, with the events of one episode being followed up and/or referenced in a later episode. Examples of this include the episodes Interior Loft which was given a direct sequel Interior Loft-Later and Lucky Stiff which was followed up with Easy Come, Easy Go.
Torrance High School was used as the filming location for Springwood High School preempting its use in later horror series like Buffy the Vampire Slayer.
Playback breakdown:
Standard Blu-ray player: This has the highest playback of all options. I recommend this option if available to you – please make sure your Blu-ray player is fully updated for the best playback experience.
PlayStation 3: I have tested my sets on my PS3, I have a generation 1 FAT model with a firmware of 4.43 and it plays fine. Remember that playback of PS3 is determined by the version of the system and the update you’re on.
PlayStation 4: This has the highest playback of the PlayStation systems. Quality of playback is determined by the version of the system and the update you are currently on. Make sure your system is fully updated for the best playback.
Xbox One: Based on customers reports Xbox has the lowest playback of all game systems. There are some ways to improve playback by updating the system and making sure the Blu-ray app in the system has the newest update. Playback is determined by the version of the system and the update you’re on.
All of this information is based on customer reports and personal experience. I would urge you to go through my feedback to see other customers experiences with playback. Many customers have had great success playing these on game systems. I put this here to be open and honest with you so you can have the best experience possible.
Running these Blu-rays on a video game consoles could result in playback issues based on all the information above.
