Five Nights at Freddy’s opens with $10.3M in domestic previews, according to Deadline. This is a solid start for the film, which is based on the popular video game series of the same name. It is also a sign that there is a strong demand for horror films in the marketplace.
Five Nights at Freddy’s Box Office
The film’s $10.3M opening is comparable to other recent horror films, such as Halloween Kills ($16.4M) and Scream ($13.9M). It is also worth noting that Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach is opening on a Friday, which is typically the busiest day of the week for movie theaters.
If the film continues to perform well at the box office, it could earn a total of $30M-$40M domestically. This would be a solid result for the film, given its relatively modest budget.
For Comparison:
| Film | Opening Day | Total Domestic Gross |
|---|---|---|
| Five Nights at Freddy’s | $10.3M | $30M-$40M (estimated) |
| Halloween Kills | $16.4M | $49M |
| Scream | $13.9M | $81M |
As you can see, this movie had a solid opening day, but it is still too early to say how much the film will ultimately earn at the box office. However, if the film continues to perform well, it could end up being one of the most successful horror films of the year.
