Five Night’s at Freddy’s becomes Blumhouse’s highest grossing movie

November 29, 2023 by EJ Moreno

Five Nights at Freddy’s is a massive hit for Blumhouse—actually, the studio’s biggest film of all time now.

The horror video game adaptation has grossed $136 million at the domestic box office, with an additional  $160 million from overseas markets. That puts the film at $295 million after 31 days of release.

The box office haul puts Five Nights at Freddy’s above previous record holder Split‘s $278,754,594, Halloween‘s $255,416,089, and Get Out‘s $252,297,405. The loyal fanbase and warm reception from the general public helped this achieve its massive success.

Five Nights at Freddy’s grossed $80 million in its opening weekend, the biggest horror opening of 2023, ahead of The Nun II and the highest-grossing Blumhouse global opening of all time. All of this while the film was a released day-and-date debut on Universal’s Peacock streaming service.

Expect another night at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria in the near future.

The movie follows a troubled security guard as he begins working at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. While spending his first night on the job, he realizes the night shift at Freddy’s won’t be so easy to make it through.

Five Nights At Freddy’s stars Josh Hutcherson, Matthew Lillard, Piper Rubio, Elizabeth Lail, Mary Stuart Masterson, Lucas Grant, Kat Conner Sterling and Jessica Blackmore.
