Question: It is said that in the original script, Julie the babysitter was meant to be Freddy's pawn, and even though they removed that part, there are still elements in the film that point fingers at her. What are some of these elements?

Chosen answer: Mostly just very subtle hints. In the beginning when she arrives right around the same time that Heather gets a call from the psycho-stalker, suggesting a possible connection. And the fact she's alone with Dylan many times during the film, as she could be subtly manipulating him to act out.

In the final version of the movie, Julie is not connected to Freddy in any way, and she was certainly not manipulating Dylan, nor anyone else. The fact that she arrives right around at the same time that Heather gets mysterious call is a pure coincidence.
