Five Nights at Freddy's is a point-and-click horror game series created by Scott Cawthon, first released in 2014, where players survive nights as a security guard watched by haunted animatronics. The franchise grew through sequels, books and a film adaptation, keeping its title instantly recognisable online. This short spoken version circulates on soundboards as a setup line, often followed by the FNAF Jumpscare Scream for the punchline. Its popularity comes from that contrast between a plain announcement and the chaos players expect next.
