Fear Flashbacks! – Freddy Krueger’s original glove design from A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET (1984)

Today, we bring you a nifty little item. This is the original design sheet for Freddy’s glove in Wes Craven’s A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET. Dated April 28, 1984, roughly six months before the film hit theaters, Jim Doyle sketched out on a sheet of graph paper the design for one of the most iconic weapons in film history. This included details that noted use of a Wells Lamont brand work glove, as well as where to position the finger loops for maximum finger dexterity. Without a doubt, this is a great example of ‘the making of a monster’ and a priceless piece of film history.
