Although it was released online to stream at home, “Five Nights at Freddy’s” tops the weekend box office with a very surprising and record-breaking $130.5 million worldwide haul. The horror movie beat out juggernauts like the “Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour” concert film and Martin Scorsese’s period drama “Killers of the Flower Moon.”

But, if you don’t want to catch it in theaters, “Five Nights at Freddy’s,” which is based on the very popular video game series, is ready to stream on Peacock — for subscribers only. If you’re not a subscriber, you can sign up for the streaming service with plans starting at $5.99/month.
