Five Nights In its first box office debut, At Freddy's kills the competition by smashing several records in the first weekend

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 30, 2023
Five Nights At Freddy's debut in the box office, raking in $78 million in North America and $130 million globally, at a standoff. And, those numbers are even more remarkable considering that the supernatural horror film, which is based on the video game franchise of the same name, was released simultaneously in theaters and the Peacock streaming service. According to box office analysts, the PG-13 rating and a prime Halloween launch date helped propel it to the top spot this weekend. The film has already passed over 2022's Halloween Ends ($104 million), and it will soon surpass 2021's Halloween Kills ($133 million). Both of the two slasher films, which had the advantage of being part of a newly developed and successful film franchise, were previously ranked as the top hybrid releases from Universal and Peacock.
