Five Nights at Freddy's (2023)	comment	If you're reading this page, it means you've been selected to describe Five Nights at Freddy's here. Congratulations! We're going to have so much fun together!Five Nights at Freddy's is a 2023 horror film based upon the hit video game franchise of the same name. It is directed by Emma Tammi (Into the Dark, The Wind), written by Tammi, series creator Scott Cawthon, and Seth Cuddeback, and produced by Cawthon and noted horror producer Jason Blum. The cast is composed of Josh Hutcherson, Matthew Lillard, Mary Stuart Masterson, Piper Rubio, Kat Conner Sterling, and Elizabeth Lail. Jim Henson's Creature Shop worked on the film's animatronic characters.Mike Schmidt (Hutcherson) is a young man with few prospects. Troubled by events in his past, his recent termination from his job at the mall has left him struggling to pay the bills. As providence would have it, opportunity comes knocking when he receives a job offer to act as the security guard for the local dilapidated Freddy Fazbearâ€™s Pizzeria, which he takes so he can keep custody of his 10-year-old sister Abby (Rubio). Unable to contact Abby's babysitter, Mike has no choice but to take his sister along for his shift. However, what at first seems like an easy kickback job turns into a nightmare when the pizzeriaâ€™s four iconic animatronic mascots — Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy — come to life at night and start to hunt them down. Now, with the help of a police officer named Vanessa (Lail), Mike must struggle to save not only himself but also his sister from the pizzeria's dark past and the monsters that it has created.The film was released in theaters on October 26th, 2023, and Peacock on October 27th, though it had already premiered in other countries a few days prior. A sequel is currently in development.Previews: Teaser, Trailer, Trailer 2

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_113480b7	type	Canon Foreigner
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_113480b7	comment	Canon Foreigner: Abby Schmidt, Mike's younger sister introduced in the trailer, is completely new for this adaptation. The same thing goes for Mike's younger brother, Garrett, who, in this adaptation, is one of the children William Afton killed.

If you've seen any of the trailers, you already know that Max, Jeff, and their friends are doomed to die at the animatronics' hands.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_14ed6ab7	comment	Does This Remind You of Anything?: The ghost children in the animatronics appear to be good imaginary friends to Abby and convince her to meet them in person, but it's eventually revealed that they're all acting under Afton's influence, who seeks to make her his next victim. There appear to be clear parallels with child grooming, especially via fictional personas (although the ghost children are independent of Afton; they're just amnesiac and influenced by him).

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_19851b86	type	The Sociopath
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_19851b86	comment	The Sociopath: Steve Raglan a.k.a. William Afton is a manipulative, psychopathic Serial Killer. He feels neither empathy nor remorse over his many crimes, which include butchering several children and trapping their souls. He perceives his crime spree as a childish game, like his kills are toy collections. Even attacking and stabbing his own daughter only horrifies him for a few seconds before he completely gets over it. He can act superficially charming enough to lure multiple children away to their deaths; he rants and raves and resorts to violence when he can't get his own way. Aunt Jane, though not a Serial Killer, ticks off many of the boxes for a textbook sociopath herself. She sees her only known surviving relatives, her niece and nephew, as nothing more than a means to covet extra money for herself and a hindrance to that goal, respectively; she cares nothing for the well-being of either of them; she shamelessly uses manipulative tactics, including Crocodile Tears, to get what she wants; and she has no compunctions against resorting to criminality to get her own way (or discussing it in front of her laywer).

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_19ebe383	type	Never Trust a Trailer
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_19ebe383	comment	Never Trust a Trailer: The official trailer has a scene where a napping Mike suddenly wakes up to the sound of the Toreador Song. In the film itself, Mike is instead woken up by the Romantics' "Talking in Your Sleep". In the film, there's a brief shot where the camera pans to Freddy as he stands behind Mike. The trailers frame this scene as a scary moment, as if Freddy was silently stalking Mike from behind. In the actual scene, Freddy doesn't do any harm. Springtrap doesn't chase Mike like the trailers imply, nor does he ominously hum the Toreador Song. In fact, the Toreador Song is heavily advertised in the trailers, but seldom plays in the movie.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_1b06aa41	comment	On a similar note, we never find out what happens to Jane's assumed corpse. It's entirely possible Golden Freddy kept his promise that she'd be fine and just knocked her out, so maybe she just left. But given that Mike went back home after the events of things and didn't seem to notice a corpse in his house, this leaves her true fate, along with the question of who or what may have removed her corpse, up to question.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_1f6983f7	type	Ambiguous Situation
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_1f6983f7	comment	Ambiguous Situation: The BB doll, despite freaking out Mike and the taxi driver, is completely benign, leaving his intentions and whether or not he's under Afton's control ambiguous. He's also implied, but never outright stated, to have his own supernatural abilities; he was able to get from the locker in Mike's office to a shelf in another room eye-level with him, and in The Stinger, he is also able to knock on a taxi door loudly enough to get the driver's attention, open the door, and climb inside despite being less than a foot tall. How he got that way is never fully explained, either. The novelization makes it even weirder, as apparently Mike has a random vision of a child he used to know in school being stuffed in a locker just before opening the locker BB's in, and somehow briefly mistakes the BB doll for an actual child when he first sees him.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_1f963842	comment	Bloodier and Gorier: FNAF is a series that has largely steered clear of gore aside from William Afton's and the Crying Child's pixelated deaths in the games, preferring to relegate most other gore off-screen or to the ambiguously canon books. In contrast, the film shows a lot of brutal deaths both on and off-screen — the security guard at the beginning who gets his face sliced off by a Freddy mask with built-in saw blades, one of the thieves gets his face chewed off by the Cupcake (which we get to see the aftermath of later), and Max gets bitten in half by Freddy, marking the first on-screen female death in the series. Inverted in the case of William's death; the games showed him violently shaking and collapsing as a large puddle of blood formed beneath him, but in the film, the only visible blood is from a brief shot showing some soaking through his clothes around the springlocks.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_22cf536c	comment	Chekhov's Gun: The first security guard partially unscrews a bolt on the hinged mechanism holding him to the deathtrap machine. Later on, when Mike is strapped into it, this allows him to fully unscrew the bolt and lets his hand get free to unlock the mechanism by pressing a button, just in time to escape his death. After taking the job, Steve informs Mike of a circuit breaker in the office he'll need to reset in the event of equipment malfunctioning. Sure enough, Mike resets the breaker when the screens and intercom system go haywire after his second dream with the ghost children, as well as turn on the lights to show Abby's drawing to the animatronics. Garrett's toy airplane ended up being stolen from him after his murder, as Afton gave it to his daughter Vanessa. Its appearance in a childhood photo Vanessa shows to Mike confirms to him that the children's killer and his brother's abductor are one and the same.

After Max's death, this forces him to bring her along to his shift at Freddy Fazbearâ€™s Pizzeria.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_26ac510e	type	Mythology Gag
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_26ac510e	comment	Mythology Gag: The film has quite a few covering numerous past games and books from the original series. The way the animatronics are lined up on the film's poster resembles the menu screen for the second game. The "Celebrate!" poster from the first game's office is shown off in the teaser trailer, completely unchanged and using the models from the original game. On the camera monitor in one shot of the film, the view of the three main animatronics on the Show Stage is identical to the positions they use in the original game. The establishment used in this film is certainly a recreation of the one used in the original game with a few new features added. Chica's Magic Rainbow appears as a decal for an ice cream store in the mall Mike works for. Additionally the store sells an ice cream flavor "Rainbow Explosion", refereincing CMR's Rainbow Cannon attack, which is essentially a rainbow explosion One-Hit Kill. The animatronics in the trailer having glowing red eyes is similar to the Nightmare Animatronics from the fourth game. Paying close attention to the logo of the building reveals it is called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza Place. This is the name of the establishment from the sixth game which allowed players to design their own Fazbear entertainment establishment. The scene of Abby hiding in a ball pit from the animatronics is extremely reminiscent of Into the Pit, the first story of the Fazbear Frights anthology. A set of posters released alongside the film's final trailer reference the story's cover very directly. The official trailer makes heavy use of the Toreador March; Freddy plays a music box rendition when you run out of power in the first game. The first scene of the film after the opening credits starts with Mike waking up to his alarm clock at 6 AM, the time which signifies the end of a night in the original games. The shot of his alarm clock is also edited so that the time initially appears against a black background, similar to how it appeared in the games. Chica dispatches Carl the would-be looter by launching her cupcake at him and allowing it to chomp away at his head, echoing how Nightmare Chica's cupcake can jumpscare the Child in Five Nights at Freddy's 4. The cupcake ends up taking a bite out of Afton's suit as well, triggering the Springlock Failure. MatPat's cameo takes place in a diner named Sparky's, presumably named after the old fifth animatronic theory "Sparky the Dog" that circulated online around the first game's release. He even says "Itâ€™s just a theory" in his scene. In addition, a book entitled Dream Theory pops up. William Afton assuming the guise of Steve Raglan and giving Mike instructions over the phone is likely a nod to an old theory where many people (most notably the previously-mentioned MatPat) suspected that the Phone Guy in the games was actually the murderer. The springlock suit that Chica tries to force Abby into looks a lot like Circus Baby, who's possessed by Elizabeth Afton in the game continuity. She may also be a reference to Ella, a different animatronic from the book series. Vanessa is Vanessa Afton, directly referencing one of the biggest theories from Help Wanted onward, that Vanessa A.'s last name is Afton and her father Bill is William, and Vanny's role in Security Breach, Vanessa both helping out Mike in running the pizzeria... as well as helping the animatronics in sealing Abby into another suit and William Afton in making sure there are no witnesses. The latter half of the ending credits features a haunting remix of the tune "My Grandfather's Clock", the same tune being used for the Puppet's music box in Five Nights at Freddy's 2. Parts of an animatronic dog are seen in the parts and service room, which hearkens back to either the Sparky the Dog meme or Fetch. Balloon Boy's appearance as a figurine is reminiscent of the Fazbear Frights story "Sergio's Lucky Day", which featured a toy version of Balloon Boy as the story's villain. Mike and Vanessa using electric weapons to stun the animatronics seems to nod to the "controlled shock" mechanic that first appeared in Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location. Foxy manages to get down a straight corridor very fast at least twice during the film while chasing his targets. This could be a nod to how Foxy's unique mechanics had him literally sprint down the corridor to the office once he left Pirate Cove in FNAF 1. When Foxy is running towards Jeff to kill him, he makes the same screaming sound used during jump scares in the first game. The animatronics perform whenever a button labeled "Showtime" is pressed. This was an element from Help Wanted that was planned but ultimately unimplemented. Just like in The Silver Eyes, the movie's climax sees William confront the heroes in his full Spring Bonnie getup and fall victim to the fateful springlocking incident responsible for his transformation into Springtrap. During Vanessa's visit to Mike's house, Abby wears a red sweater reminiscent of the one worn by Cassie, the protagonist of Security Breach's Ruin DLC. One of the looters has a T-shirt with a screen from the Midnight Motorist minigame from Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator emblazoned on it. Max is bitten in half by Freddy's animatronic jaws, referencing the infamous Bite of 1987 and the Bite of 1983. A dust-covered mirror has the "It's me" message from the first game written on it. The security office features the iconic fan and telephone (though no Phone Guy). After Mike gets his hand slashed by the child inhabiting Foxy in his dream, there's a jumpscare of said child screaming with black fluid leaking from his eyes, a nod to the ghostly posters from the first game. William Afton's costume is only ever referred to as the "Yellow Rabbit" instead of "Spring Bonnie" like in the games. Before Golden Freddy received his official name in the second game, his model file in the first game was called "Yellow Bear", which fits with Afton's Bonnie suit being his counterpart. When Balloon Boy appears in the locker to give a cat scare to Mike, he's shown sitting next to a flashlight, a nod to his infamous reputation of disabling the players flashlight, preventing them from stopping Withered Foxy from killing them in FNAF 2. When we first see the animatronics behind the curtains, Chica's face is angled similarly to Withered Chica's in the FNAF 2 trailer. The Rules poster taped to Mike's Office wall is directly lifted from Phisnom's FNAF Plus. Notably the only reference to the Fazbear Fanverse Initiative in the movie. William Afton being exposed via a drawing showing him as evil is taken from Five Nights at Freddy's: The Fourth Closet. At the end of the movie, William Afton's constant twitching in the Springtrap suit is reminiscent of the way Springtrap was originally introduced in the trailer for FNAF3 Not from the movie, but freddysfanzone.com's hit counter is provided by an entity known as "PhoneGuy Freewarez". When William Afton reawakens the shut down animatronics, Chica's Cupcake is seen lying on the floor and after the light flickers it is suddenly standing back up. This is a reference to how Scott Cawthon masks the movement of the animatronics without animation, via flickering lights, camera static or anything that obscures the player's vision.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_33d5b7f2	comment	Adapted Out: The film does away with the poor nighttime electricity of the pizzeria as a major element of conflict. While it is still present, it only comes up twice, once when Mike has to reset the breakers and isn't otherwise in danger, and again in the climax to break Afton's control over the children.ExceptionAbby does get injured when she triggers a malfunctioning electronic on Bonnie's guitar, but is fine a few scenes later long before the climax. The electric doors are absent and the cameras do not halt the movement of animatronics, but are still used to monitor their whereabouts. Henry Emily, who is known to be William Afton's business partner in the games, is completely absent from the film. Unless he is mentioned or appears in future films, this adaptation has Afton be on his own.

An actual inactive dog animatronic is seen later in the film, though it's unclear if this is meant to be a reference to Sparky or Fetch. The vandal who gets killed by the Cupcake during the break-in is stated by dialogue to be named Carl, which happens to be the long-running Fan Nickname for the Cupcake (and still sees far more use in the fandom than its official name of "Mr. Cupcake").

His actor, Matthew Lillard, also played Stu Macher, one of the Ghostfaces in the first Scream movie.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_3cc3ed1d	comment	While working as a mall security guard, Mike furiously beats up a man who was apparently kidnapping a child, only to realize that he's the child's father. This reckless behavior is explained later on, when we learn that Mike is still traumatized from witnessing his little brother's kidnapping. Also, the concept of him mistakenly believing a child is in danger when the complete opposite is actually happening (a stranger abduction actually being a parent finding their lost child) possibly foreshadows him seeing Abby being surrounded by the animatronics after hearing her screaming and assuming that the animatronics are attacking her, only to find out they were just being playful with her.

Since Abby's still angry at Mike, she happily gets in a taxi with the animatronic, who intends to take her back to the restaurant and turn her into one of Afton's minions.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_7301ae04	comment	Steve Raglan a.k.a. William Afton is a manipulative, psychopathic Serial Killer. He feels neither empathy nor remorse over his many crimes, which include butchering several children and trapping their souls. He perceives his crime spree as a childish game, like his kills are toy collections. Even attacking and stabbing his own daughter only horrifies him for a few seconds before he completely gets over it. He can act superficially charming enough to lure multiple children away to their deaths; he rants and raves and resorts to violence when he can't get his own way.

It turns out they both love each other dearly, and Mike is more worried about his ability to be a good guardian than actually resentful. He immediately regrets both bringing Aunt Jane to the house and his very brief agreement to give Abby to the animatronics and spends the rest of the film working to save her. Vanessa is the put-upon daughter of William Afton and has become a Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant due to knowing exactly what her father has done. However, she manages to face up to and fight him to save Abby, knowing that if she doesn't, Abby will end up as yet another of William's minions.

That said, it could be easily assumed that he split at the earliest opportunity given his already clear discomfort with Jane and her schemes and thus was spared the same fate that Jane and her crew all got. On a similar note, we never find out what happens to Jane's assumed corpse. It's entirely possible Golden Freddy kept his promise that she'd be fine and just knocked her out, so maybe she just left. But given that Mike went back home after the events of things and didn't seem to notice a corpse in his house, this leaves her true fate, along with the question of who or what may have removed her corpse, up to question. What happened to the corpses of Max, Jeff, Hank, and Carl aren't explained either. Mike stumbles across them in his escape from Parts & Services, but with nothing beyond that, it is reasonable to assume they are still there and forgotten by the film's end.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_93ed8515	comment	Set Right What Once Went Wrong: After Mike enlists Aunt Jane to babysit Abby due to being unable to reach Max (because her corpse is in the restaurant's storage room), he does his sleep ritual at work and dreams of his family again, happily enjoying their picnic. When Mike says that's not how things happened that day, the ghost children and his family say he's correct. They then tell him that he doesn't actually want to find Garrett's kidnapper in order to bring them to justice and get closure for his disappearance; what he really wants is to save Garrett, as he was unable to do so in real life, and keep his family from being destroyed. The children offer to help him be happily reunited with Garrett and his family, at the cost of handing Abby over to them. In a momentary lapse of judgment, as he's sucked into the illusion of the dream and pets Garrett's face, Mike accepts the offer, but upon immediately realizing that he would lose Abby as well (in addition to the likelihood of the children intending to reunite him with his family in the afterlife), he instantly regrets his decision and tries to call it off.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_9d12bbc1	type	Foreshadowing
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: In the intro, the camera focuses on one particular picture of a group of children with a yellow smiling rabbit. This picture is revisited later in the film as being how Springtrap controls the animatronics, by making them believe the "yellow rabbit" is their friend. The importance of the drawing is further foreshadowed by Abby's teacher (who assures Mike of Abby's focus on drawing as children communicate easily with pictures) and Abby herself (telling Mike the animatronics can't talk but do enjoy pictures). Shortly after this, the intro shows the Missing Children Incident, with particular focus made to a Purple Guy putting on a yellow rabbit suit before taking the children aside. This same suit, the Spring Bonnie suit, returns in the latter half of the movie, now in its more famous role as Springtrap. While working as a mall security guard, Mike furiously beats up a man who was apparently kidnapping a child, only to realize that he's the child's father. This reckless behavior is explained later on, when we learn that Mike is still traumatized from witnessing his little brother's kidnapping. Also, the concept of him mistakenly believing a child is in danger when the complete opposite is actually happening (a stranger abduction actually being a parent finding their lost child) possibly foreshadows him seeing Abby being surrounded by the animatronics after hearing her screaming and assuming that the animatronics are attacking her, only to find out they were just being playful with her. Steve Raglan gets suspiciously nervous when he learns that Mike's last name is Schmidt. This is when he realizes that Mike is the older brother of a boy that he kidnapped and murdered. There's a black hoodie hanging behind Steve Raglan when he's meeting with Mike. It looks just like the one the kidnapper was wearing. Vanessa knows a lot about Freddy's, the animatronics and the five missing kids — enough to make Mike thoroughly suspicious of her. She initially chalks this up to the pizzeria being on her beat and her having fond childhood memories of the place, but considering her father was the murderer, it's easy to figure out why she's actually so interested. The camera focuses on Bonnie's guitar sparking when the animatronic performance malfunctions on the second night. Two nights later, Abby is electrocuted and knocked out when she touches the guitar while Bonnie's using it. When Vanessa tells Mike about Freddy's being broken into, she makes no mention about what became of the vandals, seeming to imply the animatronics tidied up. In truth, she did know, and likely was the real one who tidied it up, but was keeping it from Mike.

At the end, she draws a picture of Afton in the Springlock Bonnie suit killing the Missing Children, reminding them of what happened and freeing them from Afton's influence.

Instead, because of him being forced to bring Abby to the pizzeria, the animatronics reluctantly held off from killing Mike initially due to his relation to their new friend, and when Jane does babysit Abby on Mike's final night, she is killed by Golden Freddy to get Abby back to the pizzeria.

Abby's line "Can we go home now?" was used in several trailers after they showed a montage of frightening moments from the movie. The post-release trailer for the movie follows the narrator's declaration that it's the #1 movie in the world with Steve Raglan saying, "Oh, it absolutely is," originally in response to Mike asking if the Freddy's job was still available. This trailer also edits the sequence of Mike trying to escape Foxy so that he instead looks back and screams at a positive score for the movie — its Rotten Tomatoes audience score in one version (89% at the time), and its Cinemascore in another version (A-).

This is the reason why he reluctantly takes up the job at Freddy's. Aunt Jane is unceremoniously murdered by Golden Freddy in the third act, rendering this entire subplot irrelevant.

The first is when he brings Aunt Jane to the house to "discuss" the possibility of her guardianship of Abby; the second is when he agrees to give Abby to the animatronics in exchange for seeing his family again. He immediately regrets both.

Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_dbca2c99	type	Red Herring
Five Nights at Freddy's (2023) / int_dbca2c99	comment	Red Herring: Fans of the games who are aware of Steve Raglan being William Afton and the widely accepted theory that he's Mike Schmidt's father in the games may seize upon the scene where Steve reads Mike's name and then trails off partway through before looking at his face more closely and suggesting Freddy's to him. Except as it turns out, this isn't because Steve/William recognizes him as his son, but rather because he recognizes him as the brother of one of his past victims. Golden Freddy's "IT'S ME" message is seen scrawled on a mirror on the second night. Fans may make the connection that its implied meaning from the game series, Mike's brother calling out to him from inside Golden Freddy, is true here as well. Nope. Garrett is never shown to be possessing an animatronic, and Golden Freddy turns out to be another kid with no connection to Mike, leaving the meaning of the message in this continuity a mystery.

Vanessa, who attempts to befriend both Mike and Abby, helps the latter when she's playing with the animatronics, and warns Mike that having her wander around the pizzeria after hours is dangerous. She also manages to break through her own traumas and face down her father to save both Mike and Abby when he arrives at the pizzeria as Springtrap.
