Better watch out. Better not cry. Better stay up. Or else you might die.

Like Santa Claus, Freddy Krueger sees you when you’re sleeping and knows when you’re awake – plus he totally wears a Christmas sweater – so that’s more than enough to make the Nightmare on Elm Street films perfect for holiday viewing… right?!

Syfy thinks so, and they’ve programmed a Nightmare on Elm Street franchise marathon that’ll take you through Christmas Eve and into Christmas morning. The slashing begins tonight at 10pm EST with Wes Craven’s original classic, and the marathon comes to an end with Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare at 8am on Christmas morning. Here’s the full schedule…

December 24th:

10pm – A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984)

December 25th:

12am – A Nightmare on Elm Street 2: Freddy’s Revenge

2am – A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors

4am – A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master

6am – A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child

8am – Freddy’s Dead: The Final Nightmare

Syfy’s Christmas Eve/Christmas Day schedule also includes films like Abominable Snowman, Ice Road Terror, Santa Jaws, The 12 Disasters of Christmas and Christmas Icetastrophe.
