Five Nights at Freddy's (FNaF) is a popular survival horror video game series created by Scott Cawthon. The game is set in a haunted, animatronic-filled pizzeria, where players assume the role of a nighttime security guard tasked with surviving against malfunctioning, terrifying animatronics. As the nights progress, the animatronics become more aggressive, and players must manage limited resources, such as security cameras and doors, to avoid being caught. The series has spawned multiple sequels, merchandise, books, and even a movie adaptation, becoming a staple in the horror genre and gaming culture.
