That's his name and he's all in our heads, Nancy. After he died, he became something much, much worse. He was a child murderer when he was alive. The man in my dreams, he's real, isn't he?.He was a filthy child murder who killed at least twenty kids in the neighborhood.All day long I've been seeing that guy's weird face, and hearing those fingernails.Who's next? You? Maybe you? Or how about, YOU?.An Apple a day ain't gonna keep me away.If you think you're leaving Springwood, you're not going anywhere.Today, Springwood! Tomorrow, the world! KA-BOOM!.It's the graveyard shift, when I get hungry.If you're in Springwood now, then you're all mine.She loves me, she loves me not, she loves me, she loves me NOT!.Springwood's nightmares are just beginning. You really shouldn't fall asleep in class.Now that you have me what game do you want to play next?.Why are you screaming when I haven't even cut you yet?.Did you know.that after the heart stops beating, the brain keeps functioning for over 7 minutes?.
Now THAT'S a face, only a mother could love!.I should warn you, princess: The first time tends to get a little.The only thing to fear is fear himself.He may get the blood, but I'll get the glory, and that fear is my ticket home. I had to search the bowels of Hell, but I found someone, someone who'll make 'em remember. Being dead wasn't a problem, but being forgotten, now that's a BITCH!!!! I can't come back if nobody remembers me. Until they figured out a way to forget about me. The children still feared me, and their fear gave me the power to invade their dreams, and that's when the fun REALLY began. When I was alive, I might have been a little naughty, but after they killed me, I became something much, much worse. Then the parents of Springwood came for me, taking justice into their own hands. Dozens of children would fall by my blades. The Springwood Slasher, that's what they called me.
from the very beginning, it was the children who gave me my power. They even tried holy water! But I just keep on tickin'.
