Scott Cawthon has finally unveiled the latest installment in his "Five Nights at Freddy's" video game series, showing a new evil animatronic character who will scare the players of the upcoming game "Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location."

The trailer promises fans of the independently released point-and-click survival horror game that the upcoming spin-off will incite "fear," "panic," "dread," and "terror" all at the same time. While the teaser does not provide much information about the game, the clips showing bits and pieces from the previous four "Five Nights at Freddy's" games show that it also could possibly come out with a point-and-click gameplay.

The teaser also reveals that players must crawl using the facility's vents to move from one place to another. It could mean that they upcoming game will allow players to roam freely in the area. It also implies that Cawthon has finally created a game that will let players move in two rooms instead of one.

A cryptic message also flashes in the trailer, saying: "Deep below ground, where memories sleep, anger is restless, and secrets don't keep." This could mean that players will stumble upon the deepest, darkest secrets of the lead character, which is a creepy, grinning clown-girl who whispers, "Don't hold it against us. You don't know what we've been through."

Other animatronics are also featured in the trailer, including the iconic Freddy Fazbear, an improved version of Foxy which has the tendency to become Mangle, and a creepy ballerina.

The trailer also implies that the upcoming game will be released this fall. While some fans believe that the game creator could launch the game earlier than expected just like what he did with "Five Nights at Freddy's World," this may not be possible since Cawthon already learned his lesson about rushing the development of a game.

More details are expected to come out about "Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location" in the coming days.
