A Dream Demon is a malevolent demonic entity and, according to Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, the source of Freddy Krueger's power. They vaguely resemble floating, skeletal snakes. The Dream Demons' primary goal was to break down the barriers between the Dream World and the real world. The Dream Demons sought out depraved and evil humans to act as their agents in spreading chaos. The Dream Demon animatronics were created by Jim Fowler and were manipulated by a team consisting of him, John Agnew, Bret Alexander, Adam DeFelice, Jennifer Howard and F. Lee Stone.
