SEASON 2, EPISODE 11 DREAMS THAT KILL When Charlie (Dick Gautier), the host of a tabloid television news program, openly explores the harrowing deaths of people who are fatal victims of their own nightmares, he faces a formidable and deadly opponent in Freddy Krueger. Also, a young brain dead victim of a motorcycle accident gets a new lease on life when he receives a highly experimental brain cell transplant, only to find out that he has inherited not only the personality traits of the donor, but Freddy Krueger's murderous vendetta as well.
