Season one of Netflix’s “Stranger Things” came out of nowhere and became a pop culture phenomenon fast in the summer of 2016. By this point, Netflix had already had a big hit with 2013’s “House Of Cards,” which earned the company its first Emmy nominations.

In just three days of release, “Five Nights at Freddy’s” has already surpassed the entire global haul of 2022’s “Halloween Ends” ($104 million) and will soon overtake 2021’s “Halloween Kills” ($133 million) — which previously ranked as the biggest hybrid releases from Universal and Peacock.
