Alice Johnson is a fictional character in the A Nightmare on Elm Street franchise. She first appears in A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (1988) as a teenager that inherits dream superpowers from the victims of enigmatic serial killer Freddy Krueger. In this film, she was portrayed by Lisa Wilcox—who reprises the role in A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child (1989).

Writers William Kotzwinkle and Brian Helgeland conceptualized Alice. Alice is notable for her developed character arc—which features her evolving from an introverted girl to a proactive heroine. This emphasis on developing her character has led to Alice receiving a positive reception. Being an archenemy of Freddy, Alice is a primary protagonist. Alice returns in the novelizations and the canon comic book continuations.
