Five Nights at Freddy's: Circus song

[Gibedon]

I think the reason this music is so eerie is because of how fast the notes play, and how loud it is when all you’ve been hearing in the game is ambience and faint buzzing from the fan

[NinjaPickle]

This is one of my favorite horror elements in all of FNAF. The absolute juxtaposition of this overly cheery extremely happy music potentially playing in the most nightmarish scenario imaginable. Everytime I hear this, I imagine the security guard locking both doors, animatronics banging on the windows, and the guard curled up in the corner crying as this music blares in the room.

This is actually extremely disturbing, as this happy random out of nowhere circus type music plays in the dark ambience as the eyes of stuffed dead children mashed into a metal suit stare at you blank in the eye.

[MangleFoxy]

Everything else I've gotten used to, but this music is able to still creep me out.

[senorluigi]

I once had a nightmare where i was hiding and something was chasing me. This music out of nowhere started playing in the background while i was hiding. I remember wanting to wake up so bad and was glad when i woke up.

[まいあゆみ-bm]

I like how the Freddy, Bonnie and Chica are looking at us like they're saying "Foxy is here" or "Foxy, just go get that night guard now what are you doing"

[PalKiba]

I like how you can hear someone turn on the music. That click at the start of the video.

Joke: at 0:01 the song changes to Circus - Five Nights at Freddy's.

This song scared the bloody hell out of me when i was a child and now im getting hit by nostalgia so hard cause of this song, thank you Scott for everything.

[aeyes]

Idk why but this makes me feel big nostalgia

"WHERE FANTASY AND FUN COME TO LIFE"

[tomasinojonathan]

"Four tapes hidden inside their empty heads
Freddy ripped apart with a smile
Bonnie dancing in the dark
Chica and her wonderful song
Foxy meets the Happy Man
You are gifted, you found the fifth."

This is the scariest moment in fnaf. A forced, uncanny music plays in the middle of the night and the silence of the pizzeria. The music just feels eerie and and unsettling. This image also, with the main cast having these human-like hyper-realistic eyes while staring at the camera is really disturbing and it's sad it wasn't used in the final game. While if you think of it it sounds like a happy song, it is a song of agony and pain of these poor children, multilated and stuffed inside an uncanny valley vintage animatronic struggling to escape. And judging by the clicking noise at the start, this is probably the thing they heard before they died.

[coopersmith]

Damn Mike, you got the whole pizzeria laughing.



You also got their attention...

[tanyagancheva]

I don't care what all of yall think, this is the most fire shit ive ever fucking heard

[grunt]

I like how the eyes of each animatronic are so, not so fitting in their face, and theyre are almost identical. It feels like that hyperrealistic eyes that you put to your creepypasta oc or animation that doesnt seem to fit the actual chsracters face

[Icyy]

genuinely still terrifying even after the fact that the base game does not scare me anymore from playing it a lot.

[Spunro]

i like how these kind of noises are in the game. foxy singing, freddy laughing, and the circus music randomly playing is like a reminder that they are designed for kids and someone forgot to turn them off during the night so they just sing and laugh at random intervals

[Jrangeman]

I always get nervous when hearing this. Im just trying to beat the Night and I hear this and I start sweating.

[Hughjanus]

This music + the faint sound of children screaming + william afton saying “criminal” on loop = masterpiece
