Stealing “Five Nights at Freddy’s” cardboard cutouts has become a certified meme online. Numerous people have attempted their own heists and uploaded them to TikTok for the world to enjoy. For instance, TikToker @dstroke_ had a chance to steal a cardboard cutout of Bonnie from the film. Unfortunately, the video cuts out before we can see whether they managed to get out of the theater, but by and large, it seems many weren’t able to take “FNAF” merch with them.
The meme has become so widespread that some users have managed to create entire compilations of people trying to show off their dedication to “Five Nights at Freddy’s.” TikToker @1slow4.6I showed how their entire For You Page was filled with these kinds of videos with a quick screengrab showing how many people have attempted to be part of the crime wave.
“Five Nights at Freddy’s” has amassed a loyal following, which helped the film gross an impressive $78 million at the box office for its opening weekend. It shouldn’t be much of a surprise that some people would take their devotion to the franchise to the next level. And if Blumhouse decides to move forward with a sequel, we may very well see a follow-up to this meme in the next few years.
