Five Nights at Freddy's Movie Now Streaming on Starz

The highly anticipated Five Nights at Freddy's movie is now available to stream on Starz. This adaptation of the popular survival horror video game series has captivated audiences, including the author's seven-year-old daughter who is a fan of the franchise's characters.

The Five Nights at Freddy's series was created by American video game developer Scott Cawthon. Born in Houston, Texas, Cawthon started with family-friendly Christian-themed games but gained worldwide fame with the release of the first Five Nights at Freddy’s game in 2014. The series has since expanded into books and movies, with Cawthon contributing to the lore and movie script. Despite mixed reviews, a sequel to the movie is in production, much to the delight of fans.

Cawthon is known for his leniency with fan games and works, allowing the franchise to spread across various media. This has contributed to its significant popularity among children, including the author's daughter who enjoys the cuddly-looking animals and spookiness associated with Five Nights at Freddy's. The author plans to watch the movie during the Halloween season to get hyped for the sequel.

The Five Nights at Freddy's franchise, loosely tied to the Chuck E. Cheese franchise, has proven its staying power with its appeal to both children and adults. Despite mixed reviews, the movie's sequel is eagerly awaited by fans, including the author's daughter who, despite not having seen the movie or played the games, is fond of the franchise's characters.
