How Scooby-Doo & Five Nights at Freddy's Share A Fun Casting Connection

: An animated short that cleverly combines the iconic horror franchise with the beloved Scooby-Doo characters, takes us on a thrilling birthday trip to Fazbear's Pizzeria. With a fascinating twist, our favorite gang, Scooby, Shaggy, Fred, Velma, and Daphne embark on an adventure to uncover the truth behind the haunting in the parlor. Rather than diving into pure horror, this animation brilliantly reimagines Five Nights at Freddy's as a nostalgic Scooby-Doo episode. It captures the essence of the show's opening, along with the iconic gags we all love, while Springtrap relentlessly pursues Shaggy and Scoob through the restaurant.

Even though Scooby-Doo and Five Nights at Freddy's may appear to be unrelated franchises, they have an interesting connection through Scooby-Doo's upcoming movie. Matthew Lillard, known for his role in the Scream series, will portray William Afton, the original antagonist in the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise. Afton is the founder of a restaurant chain and has committed various gruesome murders before transforming into the character known as Springtrap. Lillard's previous experience in the horror genre adds a delightful twist to his portrayal of the villain, and it also creates a fascinating link between these two franchises.

In the 2002 live-action adaptation of Scooby-Doo and its 2004 sequel, Lillard played the role of Shaggy alongside Linda Cardellini, Freddy Prinze Jr., and Sarah Michelle Gellar. The entire cast reprised their roles in parodies, such as Robot Chicken. Since 2004, Lillard himself has become the primary voice for Shaggy in various animated films and shows.

After exploring numerous titles that uncover the mysteries of Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria, it's intriguing to think about what Scooby-Doo and his friends would do if they discovered the restaurant. The short film pays loving tribute to the original Scooby-Doo series, with detailed recreations, as well as nods to the wider Five Nights at Freddy's story. It's an enjoyable watch for fans who are familiar with both series. While the short may not delve into the more gruesome and chilling aspects of the games, it's still fun to see Springtrap portrayed as a monster-of-the-week for Mystery Inc.
