This guy is a class act! Over a decade ago, my husband missed out on going to a convention and meeting him so my mother in law asked him if he could call him on the phone. When she dialed and my husband didn't answer, Mr. Englund left him a voicemail that said "Hey Zach! Drop dead!" He still talks about that to this day! 🥰

Robert is beyond incredible! He is so engaging to listen to! All his acting/work he has done is untouchable & nobody else could do it! Love how he cares about his fans & that means more to him than fame!

Back in like… 2006 maybe 2007, I volunteered at the children’s museum in Macon Georgia for a local haunted house venue called underworld. Unbeknownst to me, Robert was touring haunted houses and I scared the crap outta the very dude who used to scare the crap outta me when I was a kid! I expected him to be much taller tho. Cheers Robert

I first watched Nightmare on Elm St when I was 6 ! I discovered that I would NOT have nightmares only as long as I wore headphones and listened to music whole watching. If I did that I was fine. If I didn't, the score of the film got to me combined with the visuals and Nightmares would ensue 😆

I'm 47. Always remember seeing the Freddie films for the first time here in the UK. It was as infamous due to certain scenes as clockwork orange was infamous. Robert Englund is always a joy to listen to. As for LOTR. When watching The Rings of Power I kept going back to LOTR the FOTR Into the dark Moria and Lothlorian scenes as those are my favourite scenes and soundtracks to transport me back into the magical world which the show while ok, unfortunately lacks that magic spark

Fantastic episode. What a lovely and down-to-earth guy Robert is. Found his stories really interesting. I’m not overly familiar with all the Nightmare On Elm Street movies. I think I’ve only seen the original. It’s his performance as Willy from V that I most associate him with. I used to absolutely love that original series. I remember staying up late each week as a kid, watching it with my brother. It was almost torture to have to wait a whole 7 days till the next episode, but that only added to the intensity and suspense of each show. Willy and Martin were my favourite characters. Both good aliens!😆

He should have been bigger than he was. He has so much talent beyond Freddy though Freddy is nothing without him. I could have played Freddy but I don’t have the look. I can do the voice but it now hurts my throat

Definitely surfaced middle school theater geek me! 🥺👏🏻 Also, ice cream sandwiches are incredible and I'm so sorry Billy is only for the first time at his age experiencing one. Idk, that might just be how much I love cold sweets 😋🍦 Thanks TFO for bringing him on and to Robert for being there! Always a joy, Tuesdays slap hard 🤩🧅💙
