"Five Nights at Freddy's" is so good at giving gamers the heebie-jeebies as they explore the fast food restaurant packed with killer animatronics that Warner Bros. plans to bring the dreadful journey to the big screen. 

Not too long ago, a new iteration of the point-and-click survival game was released, and little did anyone know that they will see more of the animatronics/ killing machines in cinemas. The film outfit recently acquired rights to "Five Nights at Freddy's," game developer Scott Cawthon's most notable work. 

"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 told The Hollywood Reporter, explaining the game's great potential as a full-scale horror flick. 

It is still unknown how Warner Bros. will be crafting the now highly-anticipated "Five Nights at Freddy's" film, but what's sure is that development is making headway. Writers are now cooking up a spooky story and a setting for it, and the production team already has an idea. 

"We're looking forward to working with Scott to make an insane, terrifying and weirdly adorable movie," Seth Grahame-Smith of KatzSmith Productions told the said publication. 

Grahame-Smith will produce the "Five Nights at Freddy's" film with David Katzenberg and Vertigo Entertainment's Roy Lee.  

Unfortunately, a release date for the "Five Nights at Freddy's" movie has yet to be disclosed, and it looks like the film won't be here anytime soon as production just started. At the moment, it is known that Jon Berg and Nik Mavinkurve are will be overseeing things for Warner while Adam Stone and Jay Ireland will serve as executive producers. 

In the meantime, gamers and fans can revel in the wonders of "Five Nights at Freddy's" by reliving the experience of being confined in a place overrun by animatronics whose goal is to murder, and see what Warner Bros. saw in the game that led them to decide to bring the Scott Cawthon masterpiece to the silver screen.
