Get An Exclusive Sneak Peek At NIGHTMARE AUTOPSIS: A RETURN TO ELM STREET With Author Lowell Greenblatt

One, two, Freddy’s coming for you…so you’d better be prepared by learning all about him in Lowell Greenblatt’s new book! Now available from Harker Press, Nightmare Autopsis: A Return to Elm Street is the definitive retrospective on A Nightmare on Elm Street, and FANGORIA is excited to present an exclusive chat with Greenblatt about why he chose the slasher franchise to write about, and what makes it so special for fans and filmmakers alike. 

Nightmare Autopsis is an in-depth retrospective on one of the biggest horror franchises of all time, featuring new production information from the making of the films. The book features a foreword by Nathan Thomas Milliner, examinations of unused sequel scripts, notes on deleted and alternate scenes, a history of Freddy’s iconography, new interviews with cast and crew, and deep dives on the origins of each film. (It also features a section on FANGORIA’s connection to the franchise, featuring an interview with our very own Phill Nobile Jr.!)

Also included is a photo gallery spanning the entire franchise, as well as new insights from Jack Sholder, Chuck Russell, and Stephen Hopkins, who directed the second, third, and fifth films in the franchise respectively. 

Nightmare Autopsis is one of many celebrations of the popular slasher franchise that’s coming to life this fall for fans to enjoy. A special seven-film collection is being released this fall, rereleasing the franchise in killer 4K to celebrate its fortieth anniversary. The 4K remasters will also be featured as part of a marathon at Alamo Drafthouse as part of their Dark Visions series, for those that live near the cinema chain, and another book on the legacy of the franchise,
