Freddy was a maniac who stalked the children of Springfield. He was a bladed-glove wielding child murderer and one day the parents decided to fight back and burned Krueger alive.

Rival
Name: Superman
Reason: Superman is trying to find the Joker after the latter tricked him into killing Lois Lane and their unborn child, as well as setting off a nuke in Metropolis. Superman arrives in the PlayStation Realm and confronts Sweet Tooth, believing him to be the Joker. Sweet Tooth manages to stick him with a needle, causing Superman to lose conciousness. As his vision fades, Superman sees Freddy's face behind the clown's mask. Superman finds himself in a red PlayStation Realm, and sees many of the other All-Stars fighting their rivals. He comes across Big Daddy and Sackboy, and sees the Little Sister playing hopscotch. She begins singing, "1, 2. Freddy's coming for you. 3, 4. You better lock the door. 5, 6. Need a kryptonite fix. 7, 8 Looks like you arrived too late 9, 10. You won't escape a..gain." before she turns toward Superman and all of the other All-Stars disappear as the Little Sister morphs into Freddy. Superman's eyes glow red as he prepares to fight.
Connection: Both are non-video game characters that have appeared in the Mortal Kombat series. Freddy is also known for manipulating a person's dreams, much like the Joker's usage of the Scarecrow's fear toxin in the Injustice: Gods Among Us comic.
