“Five Nights At Freddy’s” is already one of the biggest horror hits of the cinema year. The film climbed to the top of the cinema charts in many countries during its opening weekend – with figures from the US being particularly impressive. Since its release on October 26, 2023, the film has grossed a whopping $78 million, even though it is already available on streaming at the same time.
Of course, the film probably owes the hype mainly to the legendary jump scare video game series, which has been causing cries of fear in many children’s rooms since 2014. The streamers who played the weird survival horror on camera and thus contributed to the popularity of the game series may also have played a role in the success of the animatronic horror characters.
Some of these content creators are also thanked via small cameo appearances in “Five Nights in Freddy’s.” We tell you who you can discover in the film.
Seven guest appearances in total
There are a total of seven major or minor appearances in the film from streamers CoryxKenshin, Matthew MatPat, Baz, 8-BitRyan, Dawko, FusionZGamer, and Razzbowski.
The biggest appearance of the streamer gang is probably CoryxKenshin, who appears in the film as an overwhelmed taxi driver and has to drive a somewhat battered Freddy Fazbear through the city. Those who bring a little more will be rewarded with another scene with CoryxKenshin. And here too, his passenger is extremely unusual…
With MatPat, another streamer has a bigger cameo role. In ‘Five Nights At Freddy’s’, fans can experience the popular content creator as a waiter trying in vain to take an order while annoying Aunt Jane (Mary Stuart Masterson) teams up with her accomplice Max (Kat Conner Sterling) and his brother Jeff (David Lind) devise a sinister plan to take away Mike’s (Josh Hutcherson) custody of Abby (Piper Rubio).
The other streamers will not appear directly in ‘Five Nights At Freddy’s’. Instead, their photos can be discovered throughout the film – for example, as former employees at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza Place, where they were named Employee of the Month.
