Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 with Director Emma Tammi
Transforming a beloved game into a cinematic world isn’t simple, but Emma Tammi approaches it with equal parts respect, curiosity, and boldness. After turning Five Nights at Freddy’s into a global phenomenon, she returns with FNAF 2—a sequel that’s bigger, scarier, and packed with animatronics fans have been waiting years to see.
In this episode, Jacqueline Coley sits down with Emma to revisit how she first entered the Freddy’s universe—answering Jason Blum’s pandemic-era phone call, diving into a fast-track education in lore, and uncovering the emotional spine beneath all the jump scares. Emma shares how collaborations with creator Scott Cawthon, Jason Blum, and the cast shaped the films, and why the franchise’s themes of grief, memory, and paranoia demanded a deeper, more character-driven approach in the sequel.
She also breaks down the massive scale-up for FNAF 2: new set pieces, expanded world-building, and an entire army of animatronics engineered with the Jim Henson Creature Shop. From practical effects to Easter eggs designed for frame-by-frame internet sleuthing, Emma explains what it takes to make Freddy’s feel alive—sometimes terrifyingly so.
