Biography
Rick is the son of Dennis Johnson and the brother of Alice. He is also the boyfriend of Kristen Parker. Despite the fact that his father is an alcoholic, Rick doesn't take his abuse as lightly as his sister does. Rick knows karate and is good friends with a guy called Dan Jordan, who Alice has a crush on. Even after Kristen is killed by Freddy in her dream, Rick doesn't know whether to believe Freddy is real or not.

One day, Rick falls asleep in school and ends up in one of Freddy's nightmares. He descends in an elevator to a dojo where he has to battle Freddy. Only Freddy is invisible and Rick must use his other senses to combat Freddy. Rick defeats Freddy by knocking his glove to the floor, but the glove quickly gets back up and strikes Rick in the chest, killing him. At his own funeral, Rick comes out of his coffin to say goodbye to Alice before he goes to the afterlife, but this is actually one of Alice's daydreams. After Krueger murdered him, he absorbed his soul and gets his dream power, but it was released at the end of the film.
