Can someone explain this to me?

Why is Freddy able to appear to some of these people even though they're still awake? Doesn't this contradict the rules of the original?

REMAKES ARENT EXACT COPIES. its remastering the idea, going somewhere new with it. whats the point if remaking something if its exactly the same?
