Five Nights at Freddy's: Animatronics and Folklore from the Uncanny Valley - GRIMM Digital Folklore
Happy Halloween everyone! In celebration of one of my favorite holidays, GRIMM and I will be taking a look at one of the most famous horror franchises around, Five Nights at Freddy's. I'm sure many of you are familiar with the real life inspirations behind some of our favorite murderous animatronics. However, long before any pizza selling rats, humanity has always been unnerved by the thought of any kind of creature that could pass for human. So please join GRIMM and I as we look into some of humanity's earliest fears as well as how a game about deadly animatronics can become a source of modern folklore.
