Five Nights at Freddy’s is behind your favorite TikTok trend
The animatronic monstrosities from Five Nights at Freddy’s inspire horror. Their lifeless robotic faces, coupled with jerky movements, have formed the basis for a beloved survival horror series that started in 2014. But these animatronic creatures do more than the occasional jump scare — they also allow people to make goofs about their cartoonish nature. And now a clip from the most recent game, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach, has inspired a series of trends catapulting the game’s influence onto one of the world’s biggest video sharing apps, TikTok.
