Does Five Nights at Freddy's have a post-credit scene?
2023 · Emma Tammi · 110 min
The answer
Yes — 1 post-credit scene
One mid-credits scene: CoryxKenshin's cab driver flips his light to off-duty and dozes off, someone climbs in, and he turns to find Balloon Boy sitting motionless in the passenger seat — cue one last scream. Then, at the very end of the credits, a distorted voice spells out 'C-O-M-E-F-I-N-D-M-E,' a FNAF 2-style audio cipher teasing where a sequel might go. Worth sitting all the way through.

What actually happens
Yes — one scene, and it lands mid-credits rather than at the very back, so you only need to sit through the first block of names to catch it. Then there is a second reason to stay all the way out, and it is audio rather than picture.
The mid-credits beat picks up a character the film has already used as a punchline: the cab driver played by YouTuber CoryxKenshin, who ferried Abby to the pizzeria earlier. He is parked outside, light flipped to off-duty, dozing, when knocking starts on the glass. He waves the fare away. The knocking continues. He turns around to find that something has already let itself into the back seat — the small striped animatronic Balloon Boy, motionless, staring straight at him. One jump scare, cut, back to the credits. The same figure has been in the movie all along, springing out of a locker in the security office in a gag most first-time viewers read as set dressing.
Then the crawl runs out and a distorted, pitch-shifted voice spells a message one letter at a time: C-O-M-E F-I-N-D M-E. It is deliberately built to sound like the garbled phone audio from Five Nights at Freddy's 2, and the fan reading — that it is William Afton calling from inside the Springtrap suit he is trapped in as the film ends — is the one the sequel effectively endorsed.
Both threads paid off. Balloon Boy returned as an antagonist in Five Nights at Freddy's 2 on December 5, 2025, and that film's own mid-credits scene found the Springtrap suit under a plastic sheet in the abandoned restaurant with one eye flickering back to life.
