Publication

Mick Strawn, who was the production designer on A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors and of A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master approached author Blake Best to co-write this book with him on December 13, 2017. The formal announcement about the book was given by Best and Strawn on their respective social media pages on December 14, 2017 and production began on the book on January 1, 2018. Both Strawn and Best announced that the book would be released in August 2018 to coincide with the thirtieth anniversary of the film.[3]

The book was conceived by Strawn and Best as a way of sharing previously untold stories about the making of the film. It began with stories from the makeup effects crews who had worked on the film[4] but also included stories from production and the cast of the film, including Rachel Talalay, Robert Shaye, and Robert Englund.[5]

On May 6, 2018 Blake Best made an announcement via the book's official social media that special effects legend William Forsche had supplied never before seen photos for the book and also revealed a list of several other makeup effects artists who had also contributed to the book.[6]

On August 24, 2018 the book was released at Creepycon Halloween and Horror Convention in Knoxville, TN.[7]
