The terrifying animatronics seen in the popular "Five Nights at Freddy's" video game will soon be featured on the big screen. Early this month, a report posted on The Hollywood Reporter stated that Warner Bros. managed to earn the rights to bring the 2014 hit horror survival game to theaters. 

The movie adaptation of the indie point-and-click survival horror game will be under the production of Vertigo Entertainment, led by Roy Lee along with KatzSmith Productions' Seth Grahame-Smith and David Katzenberg. 

"Five Nights at Freddy's" is designed and developed by Scott Cawthon, and initially released through Desura on August 8, 2014. The sequel was released in November last year, and the third installment rolled out last month.

"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," Cawthon said.

The terrifying plot of the game takes place inside the fictional Freddy Fazbear's Pizza restaurant, wherein a group of animatronic animals that perform fast-paced kiddie songs in the morning would kill any human in sight at night. To be able to succeed in this game, players must assume the role of a night watch security guard named Mike Schmidt. This character is tasked to monitor the security cameras scattered around the restaurant while inside the security room.

The person who used to work for the night shift left a video message, saying that the restaurant's animatronics named Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie, Chica, as well as Foxy can roam on their own at night. These animatronics turn out to be monstrous animatronics that kill everyone in sight.

But will the production team for the upcoming movie adaptation stick with the video game's story? 

Rumors claim that the film will have a different plot when it reaches the big screen, but both Warner Bros. and the film producers are mum about the report at the moment. However, the producers claim that they are looking forward to working with its developer. 

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

More information about the "Five Nights at Freddy's" film is expected to become available soon.
