Freddy Krueger’s composer

WTOP Entertainment Reporter Jason Fraley celebrates Halloween by chatting with “A Nightmare on Elm Street” composer Charles Bernstein, who wrote the music for Freddy Krueger. They spoke in 2020 about his memories of working with Wes Craven to craft the creepy ditty “1, 2, Freddy’s coming for you.” He even recreates the music live on his piano during the interview.
