Ranking the New ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s 2’ Popcorn Buckets From Cutest to Creepiest

The onslaught of Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 popcorn buckets and concession stand goods has begun.

In the first wave of products you can find at movie theaters, there’s a wide selection of Freddy Fazbear and friends as buckets, straws, and dancing animatronics. The Blumhouse horror sequel, directed once again by Emma Tammi and starring Josh Hutcherson (The Hunger Games franchise), is set for an early December release, and while the Five Nights at Freddy’s video game world still has plenty of characters left to bring to the screen, Freddy Fazbear is still the reigning icon in the movies. That includes this first wave of toys cosplaying as snack receptacles.

Here’s a peek at what AMC Theaters, Cinemark, Fandango and Regal Cinemas have on the way, ranked from cutest to creepiest.

7. Freddy Fazbear Teddy Popcorn Bucket – Cinemark

The teddy form of Freddy is just too darn cute, and it’s hugging the popcorn bucket disguised as a stack of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza boxes. (Verdict: The cutest and most coveted.)

6. Cupcake Sipper – AMC Theaters

This sippy cup is perfect and would look adorable to use if you’re fandom-bounding in a Chica-inspired look. We’re expecting this one to sell out, so it might be necessary to lurk at the popcorn stand to catch its drop at AMC. (Verdict: Cute as a cupcake!)

5. Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 Character Toppers – AMC Theaters

As you’d expect, there will be standard buckets and cups that feature returning and new characters. AMC Theaters mixes it up with various concession toppers, which include Balloon Boy in his innocent-looking form. (Verdict: Cute.)

4. The Faztalker – Fandango online exclusive

What a throwback! Reminiscent of the Talkboy Recorder from the ’90s, the Fazbear Talker is a nostalgic prop that is set to make its debut in Five Nights at Freddy’s 2. It’s how the ghosts reconnect with Abby (Piper Rubio), which makes its adorable facade more sinister than you might think. We can’t wait to see it in action and in our hands as a popcorn bucket, thanks to the Fandango exclusive. (Verdict: Cute… but creepy.)

3. Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 character straws – Regal Cinema

The Regal Cinemas version of FNAF‘s icons’ straw tops looks so demented. We love it. And the detail on the Fazbear cup with a vintage feel is giving “hawked off eBay” and haunted. (Verdict: Creepy and cursed.)

2. Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 stage bucket – Regal Cinemas

This is basically a diorama that I would not trust in a room with the lights off. It’s cool-looking, but I would expect it to come to life as I reached my hand in for some buttery popped goodness. (Verdict: Creepy but corny.)

1. Freddy Fazbear head popcorn bucket – AMC Theaters

We are blown away by this popcorn bucket for so many reasons, but mainly because it’s terrifying. The head holds popcorn, yes, but the container is nightmare fuel that not only features red light-up eyes but also allows you to literally rip Freddy’s face off, revealing an animatronic skull beneath. To make matters more hardcore, the face can then be used as a wearable mask. This might be the best popcorn bucket of the year, honestly. (Verdict: Creepy as hell but genius.)

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 opens in theaters December 5.
