The Strangest Items Confiscated By The TSA, In Pictures
Nightmare On Airplane Street

Wes Craven, who created the character, named Krueger after his school bully named Fred Krueger. A disfigured homeless person inspired the appearance. The antagonist’s gloved hand came from a cat’s claw, and it has always been hanging low because of how heavy the costume was.
