Where was A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) filmed?

8 locations on the HorrorMeet Atlas.

• Tina's House

  The Venice bungalow where Tina gets dragged up the wall and across the ceiling in the first film's signature kill; Rod's panicked escape was shot in the alley out back. Private residence, admire from the sidewalk.

• Glen's House

  Directly across from 1428, this is the home of Johnny Depp's Glen Lantz, who gets sucked into his bed and turned into a geyser of blood in his film debut. Private residence, admire from the sidewalk.

• John Marshall High School

  Springwood High's exterior, where Nancy dozes off in English class and follows Tina's blood-soaked body bag through the halls. The same Gothic campus doubled as Rydell High in Grease.

• Lincoln Heights Jail Boiler Room

  Freddy's steam-hissing boiler room lair was built in the basement of this shuttered 1931 city jail, where Tina flees down the corridors in the opening nightmare. Fenced off but visible from Avenue 19.

• Springwood Police Station / Cahuenga Branch Library

  This 1916 Carnegie library played the exterior of the 5th Precinct where Nancy's dad, Lt. Thompson, works and where Rod is hauled in for Tina's murder.

• Venice Canal Bridge

  The footbridge over Eastern Canal at Linnie Canal is where Nancy and Glen have their heart-to-heart about the dreams, with the camera looking south down the canal. Walk right onto it.

• Evergreen Cemetery

  Rod's funeral was shot near the Ivy Chapel in this historic Boyle Heights cemetery, right before Nancy's parents finally tell her who Fred Krueger was.

• Katja Institute Sleep Clinic

  American Jewish University's hilltop campus stood in for the sleep-disorder clinic where Nancy wakes up screaming with Freddy's fedora clutched in her hands.
