Alice Johnson is a fictional character in the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise, portrayed by Lisa Wilcox. Alice is the protagonist of the fourth and fifth films. She appeared in the films A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988) and A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989) before going on to appear in the comic book series and novels.
In The Dream Master, Alice has the ability to gain the "dream powers" of Freddy Krueger's victims. In The Dream Child, Freddy begins to use Alice's unborn son Jacob as a way to return and she defeats him with the help of the spirits of Amanda Krueger and Jacob. In the original script for Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare, Alice was set to return but this idea was eventually scrapped.
In A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master, Alice Johnson was the best friend of Kristen Parker because her brother Rick was dating Kristen. Alice came from a damaged family and was timid, working as a waitress; she used her dreams as a way to escape from the real world. When Kristen accidentally pulls Alice into her dream, she passes her dream powers onto her before Freddy kills Kristen. Combining Kristen's powers with Alice's lucid dreaming abilities made her the "Dream Master" and she became Krueger's next target. Her link to Krueger, allowed her to take on the abilities, both from the real world and the dream world, of Krueger's victims. One by one her friends are killed off by Freddy and she is given their abilities making her much stronger and capable of fighting back. She attempts to go to Debbie's alongside Dan to form a plan but when Debbie is murdered they are left to face Freddy alone. Alice crashes Dan's car and he is rushed to the hospital. Alice prepares for her battle and pulls Dan into her dream. When Dan is woke up in the hospital, Alice is left alone. Sensing that Krueger relied on his victim's souls, she defeated him by forcing him to stare into a glass shard from a church, which caused all of his victims to claw their way out of Krueger's body.
