About

Nightmare on Section 8, also known as the Low Tier God Freddy Krueger Outfit, refers to "fit pic" photographs of Twitch streamer Low Tier God, also known as LTG or Dale Wilson, wearing an outfit inspired by the character Freddy Krueger from the A Nightmare on Elm Street horror film franchise. The outfit consists of a green-and-red-striped T-shirt (with "COVENANT" written on it), a brown brimmed hat, ripped black skinny jeans and Krueger's signature glove, which resembles a claw. The photos of Low Tier God in cosplay notably attracted memetic use in mid-2025, when TikTok users shared edits of LTG in the Freddy Krueger outfit, paired with a remix of a Rick and Morty song. The Freddy Krueger Outfit was humorously used by Low Tier God's fans and internet users at large as a symbol of Low Tier God's poor outfit choices. Some called the photos "A Nightmare on Section 8" (low-income housing) in viral posts and memes.
