Five Nights at Freddy’s originally began as a horror video game. The player is a night watchman at the abandoned Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza restaurant. There are 5 animatronics in the restaurant that are haunted by the spirits of young children. The player ultimately has to make it through 5 nights at the pizzeria.
The beloved video game became so popular that it went on to expand into a total of 20 games, with a movie adaptation that was released just last year. The movie features Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games), Elizabeth Lail (You), and Matthew Lillard (Scooby-Doo, Scream, She’s All That).
The animatronics of characters like Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, and Foxy were created by none other than Jim Henson’s Creature Shop. The puppeteer is also known for working on The Muppets, Fraggle Rock, and Sesame Street.
The movie is scheduled to release in Fall 2025. No other information or trailers have been released yet. While waiting, you can watch the first Five Nights at Freddy’s on Prime, Apple TV, and Peacock.
