The main character of both the Nightmare Ned video game and TV show. He is a bald-headed, glasses-wearing, 10-year-old boy who has a hyperactive imagination, using it to deal with his fears, troubles, and anxieties through dark and quirky nightmares. He lives with his mother, his father, and baby sister. He also has a grandfather named Ted Needlemeyer, but he has only appeared in the video game.
Line 25 ⟶ 26:

Although he tries to comprehend Ned's nightmare dilemmas, it does not occurs often, as he is constantly confused by them. In the video game, he is only a supporting character and does not speak a single line during the game's course, but plays a bigger role in the TV series.
Line 34 ⟶ 36:
* [[Minor Injury Overreaction]]: Ned freaks out over losing his tooth, despite the fact he's lost every other one of his baby teeth.
* [[Wrong Genre Savvy]]: In the opening to the very last episode, Ned's dad seems to think he's in some kind of mystery or suspense show. This is quickly dropped when the focus shifts to Ned.
* [[Determinator]]: As his dream-world
** [[Losing Your Head]]: His reason for hunting Willie Trout.
