Freddy is disfigured not disabled though?

Dude is literally a dream entering supernatural serial killer. That is exactly the kinda thing that is NOT offensive to any particular group and is also "scary."

Rolling around in a wheelchair with a voice box like Stephen Hawking might be a bit much for a costume though yeah.

Okay, I get that is wrong to associate scars with being evil or calling short people names.

Freddy Krueger I feel is more about the claws than the scars. He isn't meant to demonize anyone, to my knowledge.

Burns on the level of Freddy are a disability. This isn't like, a scar you got because of a cigarette poke or something.

F*** off

Halloween is for people to have fun dressing up. If a kid wants to be Freddy there is nothing wrong with it.

I am extremely sorry for irl burn victims however trying to make Freddy into your own black face just makes you look stupid.

I don't see it with Freddy. Others if clearly mocking a costume based around ana xrusk disability, I can understand

but man this is as bad as the online protest for removing scene of firefighters being killed by Michael Myers

I'm getting more and more exhausted with each passing Halloween. Can't people just get over themselves and let the world breathe? We've all been through a lot.

TIL Freddy Krueger is disabled
I think they're referring to the fact that he's a burn victim, maybe? They could have chosen a better example for this.
