One of the nastiest slasher tools in horror movie history is undoubtedly Freddy's awesome blade glove, known from Wes Craven's 'Nightmare on Elm' Street series.
In painstaking manual work, Freddy Krueger made it at that time from sheet metal, pipes, fish knifes, rivets and an old leather work glove. He made several versions of it in his notorious boiler room ... and also used it extensively.
Trick or Treat Studios in cooperation with the production company of the 'Nightmare on Elm Street' films Warner Bros. Pictures have teamed up with the aim of bringing the most authentic portable blade gloves to the collectors market.
There will be 4 versions:
A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4: THE DREAM MASTERA
NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 3: DREAM WARRIORS
A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 2: FREDDY'S REVENGE
NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET
No less than Anders Eriksen, the best independent manufacturer of replica gloves in the industry, who also built a personal glove for Freddy's actor Robert Englund in 2003, was entrusted with the development of the Gloves.
In addition to Eriksen's insider knowledge hundreds of screenshots and backstage photos were used for the development and production of the approximately 37 x 12 cm replicas. No detail was left out. The fittings were made of genuine copper, the blades made of stainless steel and the glove itself made of the finest leather.
One, two, Freddy comes home with his razor-sharp blade glove!
