Be prepared to relive the terror and fright of creepy pizzerias and animatronics. This time on the big screen.

According to The Hollywood Reporter the hit video game franchise Five Nights At Freddy’s has been picked up by Paramount Pictures for a feature film adaptation. To help further your excitement, Roy Lee of Vertigo Entertainment along with Seth Grahame-Smithmand and David Katzenberg of KatzSmith Productions have been set to produce the adaptation. Among the three, they are known for working on projects such as Poltergeist, The Ring, Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, and Stephen King’s It. This alone promises a creepy and sadistic outlook of what is to come. No word on the plot has been given, but the studio is currently seeking writers for the project.

“We’re looking forward to working with Scott to make an insane, terrifying and weirdly adorable movie,” said Grahame-Smith.

“The story really lends itself to being a movie and it taps into a largely unexplored niche of horror that a lot of people will be able to relate to,” said series creator Scott Cawthon.

As you wait for the film be sure to download the game on IOS, Android, or PC to see what the rave is all about!

Five Nights At Freddy’s is an indie point-and-click game that throws you into a realm of terror. You play as the night security guard of Freddy’s, a dark and demented version of Chuck-E-Cheese, who becomes victim to homicidal, possessed animatronics that roam the halls searching for their next victim.
