Timeline

  • 00:00:00 - 00:05:00

    Five Nights at Freddy's has a complex storyline that spans games, books, and now a movie. The franchise consists of overlapping yet separate continuities. It began with two inventors, William Afton and Henry Emily, who created animatronic characters at Fredbear's Family Diner in the 1980s. The animatronics were unique in that they featured spring lock suits, which were hazardous but integral to the restaurant's popularity. However, a tragic event led to young Charlie Emily's murder by William and set the stage for a series of supernatural occurrences, including the creation of Remnant, which anchors spirits to objects.

  • 00:05:00 - 00:10:00

    Charlie's spirit possesses an animatronic called the Puppet after her murder, while other supernatural phenomena emerge, such as Shadow Bonnie. William Afton, intrigued by these supernatural elements and possessing his own personal issues, conducts experiments creating more child-targeting animatronics. After his own daughter Elizabeth dies due to one of these, the events spiral, leading to further child murders by William, now using animatronics to hide the bodies. William's actions inadvertently lead to animatronics becoming haunted by the spirits of his victims.

  • 00:10:00 - 00:15:00

    Michael Afton, William's other son, becomes deeply intertwined with the events, first being manipulated by his father to solve the problems caused by remnant, and later working to unravel the chaos his father has created. A series of murders and possessed animatronics lead to Freddy's various locations being reopened and closed over the years. Henry Emily, wracked by the destruction, eventually enacts a plan to end the hauntings and put the spirits to rest, culminating in a fire meant to destroy the remaining remnants of the horrors created.

  • 00:15:00 - 00:20:00

    Despite Henry's efforts, certain spirits, including Cassidy and those attached to the animatronics, refuse to move on. Meanwhile, the Fazbear Entertainment franchise tries to cover up and profit from the past horrors by commissioning games that trivialize the events. William's digital consciousness, Glitchtrap, begins influencing a new generation, corrupting several and leading to events happening in newer locations like the Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex, where old torments and influences continue to haunt those involved.

  • 00:20:00 - 00:28:21

    In continued mayhem, new animatronics and a new character, Gregory, become central as old spirits and new AI begin interacting in dangerous and deadly encounters. These situations reveal Fazbear's attempts to fix past errors backfire, as technological remnants of William and other spirits cause ongoing chaos. The storyline remains open for further interpretation and exploration, with fan theories and new content continuing to expand the convoluted narrative.

  • 00:00:00
    Five Nights at Freddy's has a pretty big
  • 00:00:01
    story but when you look at the games on
  • 00:00:02
    a surface level it can be difficult to
  • 00:00:04
    tell what's happening when this is
  • 00:00:06
    particularly true when you factor in
  • 00:00:07
    that the books games and the new Five
  • 00:00:09
    Nights at Freddy's movie may have
  • 00:00:10
    overlapping elements but they are still
  • 00:00:12
    their own separate continuities of
  • 00:00:14
    events so with the movie opening the
  • 00:00:15
    franchise up to those only Loosely
  • 00:00:17
    acquainted with the series I figured now
  • 00:00:19
    would be a good time to explain just
  • 00:00:20
    what's going on in these games for any
  • 00:00:22
    fans New or Old who may have questions
  • 00:00:24
    about the lore so strap in and stay
  • 00:00:26
    tuned till the end for a special
  • 00:00:27
    announcement because I'm going to go
  • 00:00:29
    over the full timeline of the Five
  • 00:00:30
    Nights at Freddy's games before I get
  • 00:00:32
    into the story itself please note that
  • 00:00:33
    this is my own understanding of the
  • 00:00:35
    timeline and due to the nature of the
  • 00:00:36
    franchise you and others May disagree
  • 00:00:38
    with my interpretations if you have any
  • 00:00:40
    concerns about the events or placements
  • 00:00:41
    I put forward detailed explanations for
  • 00:00:43
    why and how events are placed can be
  • 00:00:44
    found in my previous videos which will
  • 00:00:46
    be linked in the description and noted
  • 00:00:47
    on screen when applicable in any case if
  • 00:00:49
    you watch through to the end I hope that
  • 00:00:50
    you'll find this timeline at least
  • 00:00:51
    somewhat helpful in your understanding
  • 00:00:53
    of the franchise Our Story begins with
  • 00:00:54
    two inventors William Aton and Henry
  • 00:00:56
    Emily who were living with their
  • 00:00:57
    families in or around Hurricane Utah yes
  • 00:01:00
    hurricane is pronounced that way in the
  • 00:01:01
    late '70s early 80s together they
  • 00:01:03
    co-founded a restaurant called fredbears
  • 00:01:05
    Family Diner where they used their
  • 00:01:06
    skills in robotics to create animatronic
  • 00:01:08
    characters that could double as wearable
  • 00:01:09
    mascot costumes now these weren't
  • 00:01:11
    regular animatronics but rather special
  • 00:01:13
    animatronics they had invented called
  • 00:01:15
    Spring lock suits by winding the spring
  • 00:01:17
    locks the animatronic Parts would be
  • 00:01:19
    pulled back to the sides of the suit to
  • 00:01:20
    make room for a human performer however
  • 00:01:22
    the spring locks weren't exactly stable
  • 00:01:24
    so if you touched breathed on or got the
  • 00:01:26
    spring locks wet they could break loose
  • 00:01:27
    driving the animatronic Parts into the
  • 00:01:29
    body of whoever was wearing the suit at
  • 00:01:30
    the time how this restaurant didn't get
  • 00:01:32
    shut down for OSHA violations I don't
  • 00:01:34
    know but in spite of the major safety
  • 00:01:35
    risk the place stayed open and got
  • 00:01:37
    pretty dang popular it got so popular in
  • 00:01:39
    fact that by 1983 it got a TV show and
  • 00:01:41
    William and Henry started a restaurant
  • 00:01:43
    chain called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza
  • 00:01:45
    under the brand Fazbear entertainment
  • 00:01:46
    Freddy's not only used spring Bonnie and
  • 00:01:48
    fredbear spring lock suits like
  • 00:01:50
    fredbear's Family Diner but it added new
  • 00:01:52
    characters in Freddy Bonnie Chica and
  • 00:01:54
    Foxy now Henry was generally a pretty
  • 00:01:56
    reasonable guy if you ignore him
  • 00:01:57
    thinking the spring lock suits were a
  • 00:01:59
    good idea he was was also the one who
  • 00:02:00
    was more handy in the robotics
  • 00:02:02
    Department between the two of them he
  • 00:02:03
    was the one primarily responsible for
  • 00:02:04
    making the animatronics and even made a
  • 00:02:06
    special animatronic the puppet to make
  • 00:02:08
    sure his daughter Charlie didn't wander
  • 00:02:09
    off while he couldn't watch her at work
  • 00:02:11
    William on the other hand may not have
  • 00:02:12
    been as skilled with robots but he did
  • 00:02:14
    have pretty high Charisma while Henry
  • 00:02:15
    was the main force behind the
  • 00:02:16
    animatronics William was the businessman
  • 00:02:18
    of the duo however he was not exactly a
  • 00:02:20
    mentally stable person which is probably
  • 00:02:22
    why his wife left him but we don't know
  • 00:02:24
    much about her other than we don't
  • 00:02:25
    really see her and she probably died
  • 00:02:26
    anyway William had what one might call
  • 00:02:28
    issues and would flip-flop between near
  • 00:02:30
    worship and extreme jealousy of his
  • 00:02:31
    business partner so on one rainy night
  • 00:02:33
    the first Domino fell when the puppet
  • 00:02:35
    was trapped in its box and Charlie Emily
  • 00:02:37
    was locked outside of Freddy's William
  • 00:02:39
    happened to be driving by and was firmly
  • 00:02:40
    on the extreme jealousy side of things
  • 00:02:42
    at that moment because upon seeing
  • 00:02:44
    Henry's daughter stuck outside the
  • 00:02:45
    restaurant he got out of the car and
  • 00:02:47
    instead of letting her back inside he
  • 00:02:48
    killed her and drove away leaving her
  • 00:02:50
    body lying in the alleyway the puppet
  • 00:02:52
    meanwhile managed to break free and to
  • 00:02:53
    make good on its programming to keep
  • 00:02:55
    Charlie inside it followed her into the
  • 00:02:56
    alleyway where due to damage from the
  • 00:02:58
    rain it collapsed on her body now now in
  • 00:03:00
    FNAF particularly strong emotions with
  • 00:03:02
    the most powerful being Agony tend to
  • 00:03:04
    linger in the environment and often get
  • 00:03:05
    absorbed into nearby objects metal in
  • 00:03:07
    particular acts as a good conductor for
  • 00:03:09
    non-physical aspects of the world such
  • 00:03:11
    as emotion memories or spirits and when
  • 00:03:13
    one of these things is absorbed by the
  • 00:03:14
    metal the end result is something called
  • 00:03:16
    Remnant while other objects can get
  • 00:03:18
    possessed Remnant is special in that it
  • 00:03:20
    can not only be used to Anchor spirits
  • 00:03:22
    to a vessel and function as a source of
  • 00:03:23
    energy but when extracted it could be
  • 00:03:25
    used to heal someone from Beyond the
  • 00:03:27
    point of death providing functional
  • 00:03:29
    immortality so when the puppet collapsed
  • 00:03:31
    on Charlie's body a couple things
  • 00:03:32
    happened first the metal in the puppet
  • 00:03:34
    reacted with the emotions and lingering
  • 00:03:35
    Spirit from Charlie's death and created
  • 00:03:37
    Remnant tying her spe to the animatronic
  • 00:03:39
    and causing dark tear streaks to appear
  • 00:03:41
    on the puppet's face where there weren't
  • 00:03:42
    any before second the agony from the
  • 00:03:44
    event created a shadow entity that
  • 00:03:46
    borrowed its rabbit-like appearance from
  • 00:03:47
    Charlie's killer who would perform in
  • 00:03:49
    the spring Bonnie rabbit animatronic and
  • 00:03:50
    had such a strong connection with the
  • 00:03:52
    thing that in the books bone rabbit ears
  • 00:03:54
    manifested on his ghost the Shadow's
  • 00:03:56
    official name is rwq FSF axe but it's
  • 00:03:59
    usually just called Shadow Bonnie for
  • 00:04:00
    convenience anyway Charlie's
  • 00:04:02
    disappearance was noted and a search was
  • 00:04:04
    started for her inside the restaurant
  • 00:04:05
    however the person who found her wasn't
  • 00:04:07
    one of the already present patrons while
  • 00:04:09
    I've talked about Henry having a kid I
  • 00:04:10
    haven't mentioned that William had three
  • 00:04:12
    kids of his own Michael Elizabeth and
  • 00:04:14
    another son who we don't have an actual
  • 00:04:15
    name for but is often called The Crying
  • 00:04:17
    child or CCE for reasons that will be
  • 00:04:19
    relevant soon CCE really liked the
  • 00:04:21
    animatronic characters and would often
  • 00:04:22
    sneak away from home to see them perform
  • 00:04:24
    in this instance however he was in his
  • 00:04:25
    room when Shadow Bonnie showed up
  • 00:04:27
    outside his house and got his attention
  • 00:04:28
    by breaking the window and led him to
  • 00:04:30
    the alleys outside the restaurant where
  • 00:04:31
    CeCe got the lovely experience of seeing
  • 00:04:33
    his dad's business partner's daughter
  • 00:04:35
    who he was probably friends with
  • 00:04:36
    bleeding out understandably the child
  • 00:04:38
    was traumatized and thought that the
  • 00:04:40
    animatronic lying on her body was what
  • 00:04:41
    had killed her meanwhile William
  • 00:04:43
    eventually got back home from whatever
  • 00:04:44
    errand he was on before he got the
  • 00:04:46
    craving to commit stab and while Michael
  • 00:04:47
    told him to go easy on CCE since he'd
  • 00:04:49
    had a bad day William promptly ignored
  • 00:04:51
    his son's advice and went to his
  • 00:04:52
    youngest son's room the door was locked
  • 00:04:54
    which William was not happy about so he
  • 00:04:55
    went around the back of the house to
  • 00:04:56
    find a way in only to see the broken
  • 00:04:58
    window a pair of weird oversized rabbit
  • 00:05:00
    tracks and a trail of footsteps leading
  • 00:05:01
    towards the restaurant realizing where
  • 00:05:03
    his son had gone William was not happy
  • 00:05:05
    and decided to make sure the K would be
  • 00:05:06
    sorry when he got back CCE was probably
  • 00:05:08
    already pretty sorry he'd left the house
  • 00:05:09
    given what he' just seen but in any case
  • 00:05:11
    Charlie's body and the animatronic on
  • 00:05:13
    top of it were reported as for how
  • 00:05:15
    William decided to punish him when he
  • 00:05:16
    got home that needs a bit of context see
  • 00:05:18
    when the puppet came back looking not
  • 00:05:20
    the same as it had last William saw it
  • 00:05:22
    William was suspicious and decided to do
  • 00:05:23
    some investigating this eventually led
  • 00:05:25
    to him figuring out what Remnant was and
  • 00:05:27
    he was fascinated so noting how remnant
  • 00:05:29
    could be created from strong emotion he
  • 00:05:31
    made the perfectly rational decision to
  • 00:05:33
    build an underground bunker and run
  • 00:05:34
    experiments on his son using nightmare
  • 00:05:36
    hallucination gas to see if fear would
  • 00:05:38
    be strong enough to create what he was
  • 00:05:39
    looking for for the experiments William
  • 00:05:41
    decided to take his son's newly
  • 00:05:42
    established fear of animatronics and
  • 00:05:44
    reinforce that creating hom styled
  • 00:05:46
    environments with nightmareish
  • 00:05:47
    animatronics that CeCe under the
  • 00:05:48
    influence of the hallucination gas would
  • 00:05:50
    see as alive and trying to kill him on
  • 00:05:52
    top of this since CeCe was only scared
  • 00:05:54
    of the animatronics not the characters
  • 00:05:55
    themselves William used a plushy of
  • 00:05:57
    fredbear with a walkie-talkie inside of
  • 00:05:58
    it to reinforce course that the
  • 00:05:59
    animatronics were something to fear even
  • 00:06:01
    when CeCe was out and about
  • 00:06:03
    understandably this was not great for
  • 00:06:04
    Cece's mental state which left the poor
  • 00:06:05
    kid constantly crying hence the name
  • 00:06:07
    crying child Michael being a teenager
  • 00:06:09
    saw his now crybaby brother as an
  • 00:06:11
    excellent prank victim and would try to
  • 00:06:12
    provoke reactions cuz he thought it was
  • 00:06:13
    funny this escalated until on the day of
  • 00:06:15
    cce's birthday Michael and his friends
  • 00:06:17
    had the brilliant idea of sticking his
  • 00:06:18
    head into the mouth of the fredbear
  • 00:06:20
    animatronic while it was performing
  • 00:06:21
    despite the associated meme you may or
  • 00:06:23
    may not be aware of the resulting
  • 00:06:24
    incident was not The Bite of 87 but the
  • 00:06:26
    bite of 83 CCE was put into coma and
  • 00:06:28
    hospitalized from the incident which
  • 00:06:30
    Mike felt super guilty about but what's
  • 00:06:32
    interesting is that some of Cece's Agony
  • 00:06:34
    or a part of his Spirit was left in
  • 00:06:35
    fredbear when the bite happened and
  • 00:06:37
    Charlie now having special abilities
  • 00:06:38
    after possessing the puppet was able to
  • 00:06:40
    use that connection to put him back
  • 00:06:41
    together inside fredbear putting someone
  • 00:06:43
    back together in this franchise
  • 00:06:44
    typically refers to restoring a spirit's
  • 00:06:46
    sense of identity and allowing a full
  • 00:06:48
    merger of the spirit and vessel this and
  • 00:06:50
    the agony entity that emerged from cce's
  • 00:06:52
    death and Nightmares Shadow Freddy will
  • 00:06:53
    be relevant later William with his
  • 00:06:55
    nightmare experiments not really having
  • 00:06:57
    the intended effect figured that the
  • 00:06:58
    best way to try and get more more
  • 00:06:59
    Remnant would be to experiment with
  • 00:07:01
    similar circumstances to the one that
  • 00:07:02
    led to his Discovery in the first place
  • 00:07:04
    William made designs for a bunch of
  • 00:07:05
    animatronics specifically made to lure
  • 00:07:07
    capture and kill children after all if
  • 00:07:09
    it wasn't him doing the killing he'd
  • 00:07:10
    have an alibi as he would be somewhere
  • 00:07:12
    else and it could be blamed on machine
  • 00:07:13
    failure how did he get this past the
  • 00:07:14
    board of asbar entertainment even after
  • 00:07:16
    we hear them questioning the weird
  • 00:07:18
    designs in the games no idea but somehow
  • 00:07:20
    the designs were cleared and William set
  • 00:07:21
    up circus baby's Pizza world starring
  • 00:07:23
    the Funtime animatronics balora Funtime
  • 00:07:25
    foxy Funtime Freddy and bon bon and
  • 00:07:27
    circus baby now circus baby was the
  • 00:07:29
    important one here she was built to
  • 00:07:30
    count how many people were present to
  • 00:07:32
    make sure that when she snatched a child
  • 00:07:33
    there wouldn't be any Witnesses and
  • 00:07:35
    William made her based on his daughter
  • 00:07:36
    Elizabeth father of the year award for
  • 00:07:38
    dedicating his child murderbot to his
  • 00:07:39
    daughter particularly given Elizabeth
  • 00:07:41
    who was pretty desperate for any sign of
  • 00:07:43
    her father's affection didn't listen to
  • 00:07:44
    her dad when he told her to not go near
  • 00:07:46
    the animatronic and she ended up alone
  • 00:07:48
    with circus baby on opening day the
  • 00:07:49
    consequence was about what you'd expect
  • 00:07:51
    and Elizabeth was killed circus babies
  • 00:07:53
    was promptly shut down under the excuse
  • 00:07:54
    of gas leaks and the fun times were
  • 00:07:56
    shoved into William's nightmare bunker
  • 00:07:57
    where William was continuing his remnant
  • 00:07:59
    experimentation with what he had and oh
  • 00:08:01
    would you look at that circus baby's
  • 00:08:02
    eyes are green instead of blue now I'm
  • 00:08:04
    sure this has absolutely nothing to do
  • 00:08:06
    with Elizabeth having had green eyes and
  • 00:08:07
    having died inside the animatronic
  • 00:08:09
    sometime after circus baby's closure the
  • 00:08:11
    instability of the spring lock suits
  • 00:08:12
    finally caused a big enough problem at a
  • 00:08:14
    sister location to Freddy's probably
  • 00:08:15
    fredbears since the location shut down
  • 00:08:17
    at some point and the spring lock suits
  • 00:08:18
    were retired from use and put into
  • 00:08:20
    storage meanwhile William was now down
  • 00:08:22
    two kids and the failure of the fun
  • 00:08:23
    times did not leave him particularly
  • 00:08:25
    keen on using them for the time being
  • 00:08:27
    instead he decided to take matters more
  • 00:08:28
    directly into his own hands so on June
  • 00:08:31
    26th 1985 William took the spring Bonnie
  • 00:08:33
    suit out of storage and lured five
  • 00:08:35
    children into the back room of Freddy
  • 00:08:36
    Fazbear's Pizza where he murdered them
  • 00:08:38
    and stuffed their bodies into the four
  • 00:08:39
    main animatronics and the fredbear
  • 00:08:41
    animatronic that the crying child was in
  • 00:08:42
    this simultaneously gave the physical
  • 00:08:44
    proximity needed for Remnant to form and
  • 00:08:46
    worked as a way to hide the bodies when
  • 00:08:47
    the disappearances were reported and
  • 00:08:49
    Freddy's was searched no one thought to
  • 00:08:50
    check inside the animatronics the police
  • 00:08:52
    arrested William but due to the lack of
  • 00:08:54
    evidence they had to let him go this
  • 00:08:55
    event is commonly referred to as the
  • 00:08:57
    missing children incident or MCI on on
  • 00:08:59
    the spiritual side of things the puppet
  • 00:09:00
    was present in the location so when the
  • 00:09:02
    kids were killed Charlie was able to use
  • 00:09:04
    her abilities to help give them life
  • 00:09:05
    inside the animatronics they were put
  • 00:09:07
    into possibly using CC's memories and
  • 00:09:09
    Remnant to help stabilize them after the
  • 00:09:11
    MCI Freddy struggled to remain
  • 00:09:13
    operational for a bit but eventually
  • 00:09:14
    shut down to make the most of things
  • 00:09:16
    Fazbear entertainment reopened circus
  • 00:09:17
    babies as an entertainment and rental
  • 00:09:19
    service operating out of William's
  • 00:09:20
    experiment bunker while William had been
  • 00:09:22
    able to get some of the remnant he'd
  • 00:09:23
    collected into the bunker he wasn't
  • 00:09:25
    exactly trusted having been arrested for
  • 00:09:27
    child murder so since he still had stuff
  • 00:09:28
    he wanted done in there he grabbed his
  • 00:09:30
    one remaining child got him a job as a
  • 00:09:32
    nighttime technician at Circus babies
  • 00:09:33
    and sent him off with the instructions
  • 00:09:35
    of putting his sister back together
  • 00:09:36
    before promptly dipping and taking on a
  • 00:09:38
    fake identity so he could continue doing
  • 00:09:40
    his thing without scrutiny meanwhile
  • 00:09:41
    Michael Aton went down to the bunker and
  • 00:09:43
    had a rather unpleasant time he found
  • 00:09:45
    his sister possessing circus baby almost
  • 00:09:46
    died a bunch of times because the fun
  • 00:09:48
    times recognized him and thought he was
  • 00:09:49
    his dad and in his attempts to help
  • 00:09:51
    Elizabeth he got lured into the scooping
  • 00:09:53
    room where an amalgamation of all the
  • 00:09:54
    fun times called Enard used the scooper
  • 00:09:56
    that took the casings off of
  • 00:09:57
    animatronics to remove his internal
  • 00:09:59
    organs so they could use him as a skin
  • 00:10:01
    suit to escape the bunker but hey he
  • 00:10:03
    apparently successfully put his sister
  • 00:10:04
    back together so mission accomplished I
  • 00:10:06
    guess Ander sort of wandered around for
  • 00:10:08
    a while as Mike's body decayed much to
  • 00:10:09
    the concern of the neighbors but
  • 00:10:11
    eventually the body got too damaged to
  • 00:10:12
    keep using so Enard was projectile
  • 00:10:14
    vomited into the sewers but since no one
  • 00:10:16
    in the Apton family stays dead for more
  • 00:10:18
    than 2 minutes at a time after getting a
  • 00:10:19
    very repetitive pep talk of you won't
  • 00:10:21
    die from his sister Michael pulled
  • 00:10:22
    himself off the pavement turns out that
  • 00:10:24
    the scooper wasn't just for removing the
  • 00:10:26
    casings of animatronics William had been
  • 00:10:28
    experimenting with effects of Remnant on
  • 00:10:29
    animatronics that didn't already have
  • 00:10:31
    ass soul and made the scooper as a
  • 00:10:32
    Remnant injector so when Mike got
  • 00:10:34
    scooped the remnant that had been in the
  • 00:10:36
    scooper was injected into his body
  • 00:10:37
    keeping him from dying Michael having
  • 00:10:39
    had his life effectively ruined doing
  • 00:10:41
    his dad's Dirty Work vowed to track down
  • 00:10:43
    his father meanwhile William now under a
  • 00:10:44
    false identity needed a way to get more
  • 00:10:46
    Remnant so when Fazbear entertainment
  • 00:10:48
    tried to reboot the Freddy's franchise
  • 00:10:50
    he saw it as the perfect opportunity and
  • 00:10:52
    took up a job as a night security guard
  • 00:10:53
    thing is the animatronics weren't
  • 00:10:55
    exactly fans of his withered versions of
  • 00:10:57
    the original animatronics possessed by
  • 00:10:58
    the kitty he killed were there the new
  • 00:11:00
    toy animatronics had access to criminal
  • 00:11:02
    databases to help them stop predators
  • 00:11:03
    and to top it all off Fazbear had taken
  • 00:11:05
    the Charlie possessed puppet out of
  • 00:11:06
    storage for this location needless to
  • 00:11:08
    say William did not have a great week
  • 00:11:10
    eventually he complained enough about
  • 00:11:11
    the animatronics trying to break into
  • 00:11:12
    the office that he was switched to the
  • 00:11:14
    dayshift entered the new Night Guard
  • 00:11:15
    Jeremy Fitzgerald he may not have been
  • 00:11:17
    William but the animatronics had pretty
  • 00:11:19
    major stranger danger issues regarding
  • 00:11:21
    adults and employees at this point so
  • 00:11:22
    Jeremy was not let off the hook this was
  • 00:11:24
    not helped by William taking the spring
  • 00:11:26
    Bonnie suit and adding to his kill count
  • 00:11:27
    during the day shift due to the new
  • 00:11:29
    round of murders investigation started
  • 00:11:30
    back up William was fired and Freddy's
  • 00:11:32
    tried to get in contact with Henry you
  • 00:11:34
    may have noticed that Henry hasn't made
  • 00:11:35
    much of an appearance since Charlie died
  • 00:11:37
    and wondered about what he's been up to
  • 00:11:38
    expect to continue wondering for the
  • 00:11:40
    foreseeable future anyway Jeremy was
  • 00:11:42
    moved to the day shift for the last
  • 00:11:43
    event Freddy's had before closing down
  • 00:11:45
    again unfortunately for him he was
  • 00:11:46
    probably the victim of the infamous Bite
  • 00:11:48
    of 87 meanwhile the night shift needed
  • 00:11:50
    to be filled and Michael Aton had heard
  • 00:11:51
    about his father getting up to things at
  • 00:11:53
    the location so he applied for and got
  • 00:11:55
    the job under the name frit Smith with
  • 00:11:56
    the animatronics being possessed and on
  • 00:11:58
    the attack he did something to fend them
  • 00:11:59
    off or attempt to release the spirits
  • 00:12:01
    and was promptly fired after one night
  • 00:12:03
    for tampering with the animatronics and
  • 00:12:04
    odor Fazbear entertainment wasn't done
  • 00:12:06
    however even if they now had a
  • 00:12:07
    drastically reduced budget and had to
  • 00:12:09
    scrap the toy animatronics they took the
  • 00:12:11
    original animatronics back to the
  • 00:12:12
    original restaurant and set to work
  • 00:12:13
    fixing them and the building up to
  • 00:12:15
    reopen but Fazbear is terrible at
  • 00:12:17
    screening their employees so William got
  • 00:12:19
    another night security job this time he
  • 00:12:21
    hid out in the safe room which wasn't on
  • 00:12:23
    any cameras and inaccessible to the
  • 00:12:24
    animatronics at some point William had
  • 00:12:26
    developed a connection with Shadow
  • 00:12:27
    Freddy potentially since it was somewhat
  • 00:12:29
    created from the fear he had induced in
  • 00:12:31
    Cece and was able to use it to lure the
  • 00:12:33
    animatronics to just outside the safe
  • 00:12:34
    room so that he could dismantle them
  • 00:12:36
    this had the consequence of the spirits
  • 00:12:37
    manifesting outside of their Broken
  • 00:12:39
    Vessels and chasing William into the
  • 00:12:40
    safe room after panicking for a bit
  • 00:12:42
    William put on the spring Bonnie suit to
  • 00:12:43
    either intimidate the spirits or
  • 00:12:44
    disguise himself the thing is it was
  • 00:12:46
    raining and the building still hadn't
  • 00:12:47
    been fixed all the way so there was a
  • 00:12:48
    leak in the ceiling and he was wearing a
  • 00:12:50
    spring lock suit it went about as well
  • 00:12:52
    for him as you'd expect and the spirits
  • 00:12:53
    returned to their vessels later the
  • 00:12:55
    daytime employees got there only to find
  • 00:12:57
    the animatronics broken on the ground
  • 00:12:58
    ground and a dead body in the safe room
  • 00:13:00
    so they hired a construction crew to
  • 00:13:02
    seal off the safe room blamed it on
  • 00:13:04
    budget restrictions and told the rest of
  • 00:13:05
    the employees they weren't allowed to
  • 00:13:07
    get their stuff out beforehand and to
  • 00:13:08
    not tell anyone the safe rooms whever a
  • 00:13:10
    things so that no one would find the
  • 00:13:11
    dead body eventually they fixed the
  • 00:13:13
    restaurant in animatronics and finally
  • 00:13:14
    reopened one employee known as phon guy
  • 00:13:16
    had been working for Fazbear since
  • 00:13:18
    before the spring locks were retired and
  • 00:13:19
    after the incident in ' 87 decided to
  • 00:13:21
    take the night shift when the place
  • 00:13:22
    reopened so when Freddy's opened he did
  • 00:13:24
    just that honestly he managed pretty
  • 00:13:26
    well all things considered but
  • 00:13:27
    eventually got to be too much for him so
  • 00:13:30
    in November of 1993 he started his last
  • 00:13:32
    week on the job and recorded some advice
  • 00:13:34
    calls on the phone for whoever would
  • 00:13:35
    take over after him he never got to
  • 00:13:37
    finish though cuz on the fourth night of
  • 00:13:38
    that week he got killed by the spiritual
  • 00:13:40
    manifestation of the animatronic that
  • 00:13:41
    was once fredbear golden Freddy so who
  • 00:13:43
    else would they hire for his replacement
  • 00:13:45
    but won Mike Schmidt AKA Michael Aton
  • 00:13:47
    under a different fake name since the
  • 00:13:49
    last one got fired this time he lasted
  • 00:13:51
    longer than a day and remember how I
  • 00:13:52
    mentioned the crying child spirit being
  • 00:13:54
    in fredbear now golden Freddy well Mike
  • 00:13:56
    started getting haunted by his brother
  • 00:13:57
    which was a rather unpleasant experience
  • 00:13:59
    as it manifested as experiencing the
  • 00:14:01
    nightmare experiment trauma in his
  • 00:14:02
    dreams albeit with bits of his own
  • 00:14:03
    personal experience mixed in Mike lasted
  • 00:14:05
    a week at Freddy's before once again
  • 00:14:07
    getting fired for tampering with the
  • 00:14:08
    animatronics potentially to try and help
  • 00:14:10
    his brother unprofessionalism and odor
  • 00:14:12
    and Freddy shut down again soon after
  • 00:14:14
    after that there's a fun 30-year time
  • 00:14:15
    skip we don't know much about but in
  • 00:14:17
    2023 this guy called phone dude went hey
  • 00:14:19
    wouldn't it be cool to make a horror
  • 00:14:21
    attraction based on the murders at that
  • 00:14:22
    Freddy's place from back in the'80s and
  • 00:14:24
    fazbears fright was born the place was
  • 00:14:26
    somewhat flammable with fonu doing his
  • 00:14:28
    best to make the location look as
  • 00:14:29
    authentic as possible to a restaurant
  • 00:14:31
    left to Rob for decades but it was there
  • 00:14:33
    and it was functional it even had a
  • 00:14:34
    security guard who was none other than
  • 00:14:36
    Michael Aon anyway phone dude had been
  • 00:14:37
    raiding Freddy's locations for cool
  • 00:14:39
    stuff for the attraction but time the
  • 00:14:41
    elements and other people hadn't left
  • 00:14:42
    much in the way of full and functional
  • 00:14:44
    animatronics so when he heard that there
  • 00:14:46
    were these safe room things that were
  • 00:14:47
    sealed up he went to check that out to
  • 00:14:48
    see if he could find anything q a day
  • 00:14:50
    later Mike is on shift phone dude tells
  • 00:14:52
    him that they now had a real animatronic
  • 00:14:54
    and it was in the building and then it
  • 00:14:55
    turned out that said animatronic was the
  • 00:14:57
    exact guy Mike had SP the past several
  • 00:14:59
    decades trying to find remember how
  • 00:15:01
    Agony is one of the strongest emotions
  • 00:15:02
    that can create Remnant well
  • 00:15:04
    unfortunately for everyone spring
  • 00:15:06
    locking is a very painful way to die and
  • 00:15:08
    as such William did not stay dead
  • 00:15:09
    instead he ended up haunting the spring
  • 00:15:11
    Bonnie suit and his corpse making him
  • 00:15:13
    into the animatronic called Spring trap
  • 00:15:15
    Mike eventually got sick of the
  • 00:15:16
    fatherson reunion and at the end of his
  • 00:15:17
    week burned the place to the ground
  • 00:15:19
    unfortunately this did not get rid of
  • 00:15:20
    William whose whole brand is always
  • 00:15:22
    coming back and springtrap though
  • 00:15:23
    damaged was able to escape but it turns
  • 00:15:25
    out the two apons weren't the only ones
  • 00:15:27
    who had been there haunted parts of the
  • 00:15:28
    original animatronics as well as an
  • 00:15:30
    intact puppet that snuck in had been in
  • 00:15:32
    the location and the puppet had the
  • 00:15:33
    ability to set up something called
  • 00:15:35
    happiest day for the spirits that would
  • 00:15:36
    give them all the ability to move on
  • 00:15:38
    Happy St focused on CeCe possibly
  • 00:15:40
    because Charlie may have used his
  • 00:15:41
    memories and Remnant to help give life
  • 00:15:42
    to the other kids so he needed to be
  • 00:15:44
    able to rest for the others to move on
  • 00:15:46
    the thing is if this happiest day did
  • 00:15:48
    happen it certainly doesn't seem like
  • 00:15:49
    any of the spirits moved on cuz Henry
  • 00:15:51
    Cott went to the whole haunted
  • 00:15:52
    animatronics thing after the fire and
  • 00:15:54
    had a whole crisis about how the
  • 00:15:55
    animatronics he made held the souls of
  • 00:15:57
    the kids killed by his former business
  • 00:15:58
    business partner and how they wouldn't
  • 00:15:59
    be able to rest with the way things work
  • 00:16:01
    so when the remains of the stuff in
  • 00:16:03
    Fazbear's fright was auctioned off Henry
  • 00:16:04
    bought the haunted stuff got a hold of
  • 00:16:06
    Williams research on Remnant and started
  • 00:16:08
    his master plan to put things to an end
  • 00:16:09
    making another Freddy's restaurant the
  • 00:16:11
    plan was he'd learn in any animatronics
  • 00:16:13
    that had Remnant by impersonating
  • 00:16:15
    William and promising remnants or
  • 00:16:16
    something along those lines then stick
  • 00:16:18
    them in a vent maze under the main floor
  • 00:16:19
    of the Pizzeria and finally set them all
  • 00:16:21
    on fire now Henry couldn't be the one to
  • 00:16:23
    actually run the place since the jig
  • 00:16:25
    would be up if he did so he put out a
  • 00:16:26
    job offer for a franchisee to do the job
  • 00:16:28
    he expected that some random person who
  • 00:16:30
    didn't know anything and as such
  • 00:16:31
    wouldn't be suspicious would take the
  • 00:16:33
    job and follow his instructions about
  • 00:16:34
    bringing in the weird animatronics that
  • 00:16:36
    showed up in the back alley and the
  • 00:16:37
    person he got was Michael laughon there
  • 00:16:39
    were four animatronics that Mike brought
  • 00:16:40
    in and stuck in Henry's vent maze over
  • 00:16:42
    the course of the week M Freddy was all
  • 00:16:44
    the fun times minus circus baby who had
  • 00:16:46
    been kicked out of ARD for being too
  • 00:16:47
    bossy scrap baby was the result of
  • 00:16:49
    Elizabeth fixing herself after getting
  • 00:16:50
    ejected scrap trap aka William who had
  • 00:16:53
    sustained a bunch of damage since the
  • 00:16:54
    fire but had repaired and healed himself
  • 00:16:56
    to some degree with similar parts and
  • 00:16:57
    Remnant he managed to get in the time
  • 00:16:59
    between was well aware that this was a
  • 00:17:01
    setup but was intrigued enough to come
  • 00:17:02
    anyway and finally Lefty was an
  • 00:17:04
    animatronic Henry built to capture the
  • 00:17:06
    puppet and keep it under control with
  • 00:17:07
    the steady flow of electricity any if
  • 00:17:09
    you are wondering yes he did this
  • 00:17:10
    knowing his daughter was in there the
  • 00:17:12
    final night arrived and scrapbaby was
  • 00:17:13
    excited about the opportunity to make
  • 00:17:15
    her dad proud of her only for Henry to
  • 00:17:16
    interrupt and reveal that yeah this was
  • 00:17:18
    a trap to force everyone to move on and
  • 00:17:20
    that while he planned an Escape Route
  • 00:17:21
    for whoever he tired he figured Mike was
  • 00:17:23
    probably sick and tired of everything at
  • 00:17:25
    this point as well so they would all
  • 00:17:26
    burn together issue is Henry was relying
  • 00:17:29
    on Williams research notes that
  • 00:17:30
    theorized that high temperatures would
  • 00:17:32
    destroy the effects of Remnant and
  • 00:17:33
    assumed that it would be enough to make
  • 00:17:34
    a spirit move on when they didn't want
  • 00:17:36
    to and that is not how it works if a
  • 00:17:39
    spirit isn't willing you can't just set
  • 00:17:40
    them on fire to make them go away and
  • 00:17:42
    there was one spirit in particular who
  • 00:17:44
    wasn't ready to move on at all Cassidy
  • 00:17:46
    the spirit who shared golden Freddy with
  • 00:17:47
    CeCe was pretty upset about the whole
  • 00:17:49
    being murdered thing and wanted William
  • 00:17:51
    to suffer so despite warnings from a
  • 00:17:53
    spiritual entity we don't know a ton
  • 00:17:54
    about called Old Man consequences to let
  • 00:17:56
    herself rest and leave the demon to his
  • 00:17:58
    demons this vengeful Spirit anchored
  • 00:18:00
    herself to William's soul and forced him
  • 00:18:01
    to experience a nightmare coma where he
  • 00:18:03
    was attacked by manifestations of a
  • 00:18:04
    whole bunch of animatronics and she
  • 00:18:06
    wasn't the only spirit that didn't move
  • 00:18:07
    on either Charlie stuck around to help
  • 00:18:09
    as well and CCE seems to have done
  • 00:18:10
    likewise on top of this Elizabeth hadn't
  • 00:18:12
    had any closure with her desperation for
  • 00:18:14
    some sign of her dad caring about her
  • 00:18:16
    and Mike had not successfully
  • 00:18:17
    accomplished his goal of getting rid of
  • 00:18:18
    his dad so pretty much none of the
  • 00:18:20
    spirits actually ended up moving on Heck
  • 00:18:22
    Fazbear entertainment had shut down
  • 00:18:24
    after the fire but it started back up
  • 00:18:25
    relatively soon after and got massively
  • 00:18:27
    successful again however with its
  • 00:18:29
    success Talk of the murders came up so
  • 00:18:31
    the company hired an indie game
  • 00:18:32
    developer to make horror games based on
  • 00:18:34
    the tragedies to Mock and discredit them
  • 00:18:36
    of course Fazbear couldn't have it known
  • 00:18:37
    that they were the ones to hire him to
  • 00:18:39
    make the games so they pretended to not
  • 00:18:41
    be involved and after several years of
  • 00:18:42
    the Indy devs games being public
  • 00:18:44
    conversation Fazbear hired a company to
  • 00:18:46
    make an official VR game to take the
  • 00:18:48
    actual events that happened and play
  • 00:18:49
    them off as fictional scenarios to help
  • 00:18:51
    with the process Fazbear gave them the
  • 00:18:52
    AI program they used for story
  • 00:18:54
    generation for their other games called
  • 00:18:55
    mimic 1 and some funky old circuit
  • 00:18:57
    boards and such that were supposedly to
  • 00:18:59
    help with pathf finding two things here
  • 00:19:01
    first it didn't really fit to explain
  • 00:19:02
    earlier but way back in the early days
  • 00:19:04
    of fbe entertainment there was this guy
  • 00:19:06
    who built an animatronic called the
  • 00:19:07
    mimic which is what the mimic one
  • 00:19:09
    program was originally made for the
  • 00:19:10
    mimic would copy behaviors of sa and
  • 00:19:12
    replicate them unfortunately the mimic
  • 00:19:13
    had been infused with its Creator's Rage
  • 00:19:15
    which gave the mimic a tendency to take
  • 00:19:17
    what it copied in the direction of
  • 00:19:18
    extreme violence but even after it was
  • 00:19:20
    deactivated for causing problems Fazbear
  • 00:19:22
    decided to keep it around this will be
  • 00:19:23
    relevant later as for the circuit boards
  • 00:19:25
    it turns out that the reason they worked
  • 00:19:27
    for pathf finding was because they were
  • 00:19:28
    from animatronics that had been found in
  • 00:19:30
    the burned down Freddy Fazbear's Pizza
  • 00:19:31
    place and had those pathing systems
  • 00:19:33
    built in why give them old circuit
  • 00:19:35
    boards from burnt animatronics well
  • 00:19:36
    given the circuit boards were stolen
  • 00:19:38
    back from the game developers and later
  • 00:19:39
    given to another company to infect the
  • 00:19:41
    animatronics they were making with the
  • 00:19:42
    same code it seems like whoever gave
  • 00:19:44
    them those circuit boards in the first
  • 00:19:45
    place knew exactly what they were doing
  • 00:19:47
    as for the VR game it turns out that
  • 00:19:49
    spring Bonnie was built with special
  • 00:19:50
    show protocols that allowed the wearer
  • 00:19:52
    to control any animatronics linked to
  • 00:19:54
    its code so when his circuit boards were
  • 00:19:56
    scanned William Aton was given an escape
  • 00:19:58
    from from Cassidy's nightmare coma and
  • 00:19:59
    connected to the game with this
  • 00:20:00
    connection William hijacked the mimic 1
  • 00:20:02
    program and created the digital entity
  • 00:20:04
    glitch trap the nature of VR and glitch
  • 00:20:06
    trap status as a living computer virus
  • 00:20:08
    allowed William to use glitch trap to
  • 00:20:10
    hijack and influence the minds of the
  • 00:20:11
    beta testers the first one SED off his
  • 00:20:13
    face the second found out that glitch
  • 00:20:15
    trap had hidden himself in the audio log
  • 00:20:17
    she was recording to document things so
  • 00:20:18
    she tried to split them up to get rid of
  • 00:20:20
    them but was glitch trapped in the
  • 00:20:21
    process meanwhile Fazbear entertainment
  • 00:20:23
    has started to build a new attraction
  • 00:20:24
    starring new glamrock animatronics
  • 00:20:26
    called Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizza Lex
  • 00:20:28
    and taking the term cover up very
  • 00:20:30
    literally they built it directly on top
  • 00:20:32
    of Henry's Pizzeria but not before
  • 00:20:34
    having the mimic brought in therefore
  • 00:20:35
    unspecified reasons which ended up with
  • 00:20:37
    a lot of deaths when it was programmed
  • 00:20:39
    to make a pile of endoskeleton Limbs and
  • 00:20:41
    chose to include humans in that category
  • 00:20:43
    eventually it was sealed in like the
  • 00:20:44
    basement's basement's basement behind a
  • 00:20:46
    wall of concrete and a fancy computer
  • 00:20:48
    program called mixus was implemented to
  • 00:20:50
    keep it there while the pizza Plex was
  • 00:20:51
    being built development of the game
  • 00:20:53
    moved back to Fazbear entertainment and
  • 00:20:54
    a new beta tester Vanessa took over and
  • 00:20:57
    despite her best efforts was hijacked by
  • 00:20:58
    Glitch trap she attempted to go about
  • 00:21:00
    her normal job but glitch trap's
  • 00:21:02
    influence led to her searching
  • 00:21:03
    suspicious stuff on company computers
  • 00:21:05
    like how far you can cut someone in half
  • 00:21:06
    before they lose Consciousness which
  • 00:21:08
    triggered red flags in the system
  • 00:21:09
    eventually she got so suspicious that
  • 00:21:11
    she was forced to start going to company
  • 00:21:12
    mandated therapy this was bad news for
  • 00:21:14
    William who had plans for her and didn't
  • 00:21:16
    want the scrutiny from people who
  • 00:21:17
    weren't in on things so a robotic
  • 00:21:19
    duplicate of Vanessa was made to take
  • 00:21:21
    over normal daily tasks leaving the
  • 00:21:22
    original to operate without suspicion
  • 00:21:24
    now the new Vanessa bot would have
  • 00:21:26
    struggled to act completely human on her
  • 00:21:27
    own so the spirit of Elizabeth Aton who
  • 00:21:29
    was terrified of disobeying her father
  • 00:21:31
    after how that went for her last time
  • 00:21:32
    was put into the robot and Vanessa's
  • 00:21:34
    records were changed to more closely
  • 00:21:35
    match Elizabeth's life for a therapy
  • 00:21:37
    session purposes Elizabeth under
  • 00:21:39
    Vanessa's name purchased costume
  • 00:21:40
    materials and handed them off to the
  • 00:21:42
    Original Vanessa who made a white rabbit
  • 00:21:43
    costume and took on the identity of vany
  • 00:21:45
    while vany could be considered to come
  • 00:21:47
    from her real name and the word bunny it
  • 00:21:49
    also relates to a mask that looks a lot
  • 00:21:51
    like her costume that was connected to
  • 00:21:52
    something called the vany network this
  • 00:21:54
    was an augmented reality or ar overlay
  • 00:21:57
    of the pizza play that could be used to
  • 00:21:59
    manipulate various technological aspects
  • 00:22:01
    of the pizza Plex and make things appear
  • 00:22:03
    that weren't real it worked by
  • 00:22:04
    permanently implanting an occipital lobe
  • 00:22:06
    transponder in the wearer's head that
  • 00:22:08
    could interface with the part of the
  • 00:22:09
    brain that controls visual perception
  • 00:22:11
    and it's good to note that while the
  • 00:22:12
    full AR world was restricted to the mask
  • 00:22:14
    beond the Chip's ability to make someone
  • 00:22:16
    experience things that weren't actually
  • 00:22:18
    real was not and also it was connected
  • 00:22:20
    to glitch trap this will cause problems
  • 00:22:21
    later on a related note a local boy
  • 00:22:23
    Gregory was kidnapped probably killed
  • 00:22:25
    and replaced with a robot that had
  • 00:22:26
    glitch trap and something similar to the
  • 00:22:28
    AR chip built in he was sent to the same
  • 00:22:30
    therapist as Elizabeth who I will be
  • 00:22:31
    calling Vanessa from here on out to keep
  • 00:22:33
    her in line and kill the therapists if
  • 00:22:35
    they got too close to the truth after
  • 00:22:36
    vany and Vanessa were transferred to the
  • 00:22:38
    pizza Plex as a security guard Gregory
  • 00:22:40
    used his hacking skills to implement
  • 00:22:41
    glitch trap into the place's systems and
  • 00:22:43
    animatronics he also made friends with a
  • 00:22:45
    girl named Cassie the daughter of one of
  • 00:22:46
    the pizz Plex technicians after noticing
  • 00:22:48
    that no one showed up for her birthday
  • 00:22:49
    party this is another thing that will be
  • 00:22:51
    relevant later as for the other Spirits
  • 00:22:53
    William got Cassidy off his back by
  • 00:22:54
    trapping her to some degree in the
  • 00:22:56
    princess Quest arcade Trilogy that also
  • 00:22:57
    Al functioned as glitch trap's access
  • 00:22:59
    point to the pizza Plex but he didn't
  • 00:23:01
    want to be stuck as just a virus
  • 00:23:02
    operating out of his very broken body so
  • 00:23:04
    he had vany head down into the old
  • 00:23:06
    Pizzeria to help repair him because the
  • 00:23:08
    way into the area he was in had since
  • 00:23:10
    been blocked to keep him from being
  • 00:23:11
    found the pizz plex's glamrock Freddy
  • 00:23:13
    animatronic was used to clear the way
  • 00:23:15
    and in the process came into contact
  • 00:23:16
    with the spirit of Michael Aton the
  • 00:23:18
    thing is Spirits tend to have memory
  • 00:23:20
    problems and after Mike's body was
  • 00:23:21
    burned he sort of forgot everything but
  • 00:23:24
    hey Freddy got an upgraded sense of
  • 00:23:25
    agency so that's something meanwhile GRE
  • 00:23:28
    came into contact with the crying child
  • 00:23:29
    Spirit got possessed and was able to
  • 00:23:31
    break free from glitch traps control to
  • 00:23:33
    avoid getting recaptured he hid out in
  • 00:23:34
    the pizza Plex where he tried to put his
  • 00:23:36
    Memories Back In order using Post-it
  • 00:23:37
    notes and deactivated staff robots as
  • 00:23:39
    for Charlie Spirit her name is in the
  • 00:23:41
    files for the Post-it note Room Gregory
  • 00:23:42
    was hiding out in and there's evidence
  • 00:23:44
    of another kid living at the pizzax so
  • 00:23:46
    even if we don't know exactly who and
  • 00:23:47
    where she is yet chances are she's
  • 00:23:49
    possessing another robot kid and moved
  • 00:23:51
    into the room with Gregory eventually
  • 00:23:52
    the two of them tried to escape the
  • 00:23:54
    pizza Plex and while Charlie was
  • 00:23:55
    successful Gregory was caught by Vanessa
  • 00:23:57
    now while while Gregory might not have
  • 00:23:59
    been controlled by Glitch trap anymore
  • 00:24:00
    the virus and occipital transponder were
  • 00:24:03
    still in his head and being a robot made
  • 00:24:05
    him particularly susceptible to
  • 00:24:06
    tampering so William took back up the
  • 00:24:08
    hobby of subjecting his youngest son to
  • 00:24:10
    perception altering experiments Gregory
  • 00:24:12
    had a decent chunk of his memories
  • 00:24:13
    blocked was allowed to escape Vanessa
  • 00:24:15
    and the glamrock animatronics were sent
  • 00:24:16
    to hunt him down whenever Gregory got to
  • 00:24:18
    a point where he would Escape he would
  • 00:24:19
    experience a false escape and wake right
  • 00:24:21
    back up where he started with things
  • 00:24:23
    having been reset to the way things were
  • 00:24:24
    there were some hiccups however Freddy
  • 00:24:26
    being possessed by Michael had made it
  • 00:24:27
    so Gregory had initially tried to escape
  • 00:24:29
    and the command to capture him on site
  • 00:24:31
    was set Freddy glitched out on stage
  • 00:24:32
    after seeing Gregory in the crowd and
  • 00:24:34
    was set to safe mode which blocked out
  • 00:24:35
    glitch trap as such Gregory was able to
  • 00:24:37
    hide in Freddy's stomach hatch to avoid
  • 00:24:38
    danger Gregory made a bunch of Escape
  • 00:24:40
    attempts and after each he managed to
  • 00:24:42
    retain the memory of the result somewhat
  • 00:24:43
    and would draw a comic page of it as a
  • 00:24:45
    reminder finally he managed to escape
  • 00:24:47
    the simulation by going straight to the
  • 00:24:48
    source he and Freddy made it under the
  • 00:24:50
    pizza Plex to the Freddy's that had been
  • 00:24:51
    built on and as they went further in
  • 00:24:53
    Freddy started to remember having
  • 00:24:54
    previously been Michael which was all
  • 00:24:56
    well and good but not enough to stop
  • 00:24:57
    William from hijacking his body directly
  • 00:24:59
    fortunately even if Fire doesn't get rid
  • 00:25:01
    of spirits it still hurts so using the
  • 00:25:03
    stuff Henry had set the place on fire
  • 00:25:05
    with Gregory joined the set William Aton
  • 00:25:06
    on fire club and he and Freddy booked it
  • 00:25:09
    further into the place meanwhile
  • 00:25:10
    remember the pile of humans and
  • 00:25:11
    animatronics the mimic made earlier yeah
  • 00:25:13
    well that thing was very Agony infused
  • 00:25:15
    and with the gift of life it decided to
  • 00:25:17
    snatch William and incorporate him into
  • 00:25:18
    it the tangle of animatronics then
  • 00:25:20
    burrowed their way out of the pizzeria
  • 00:25:22
    effectively causing a massive earthquake
  • 00:25:23
    all this cut off William's influence
  • 00:25:25
    from the pizza Plex leaving the mimic
  • 00:25:26
    program as the only part of trap left in
  • 00:25:28
    the building this seemingly did not
  • 00:25:29
    apply to VY given she evangelized the
  • 00:25:31
    abandoned Pizza Plex after all of this
  • 00:25:33
    Gregory and Freddy meanwhile may have
  • 00:25:34
    left the building for a bit but if they
  • 00:25:36
    did they eventually went back down to
  • 00:25:37
    the basement found and escaped the mimic
  • 00:25:39
    but ended up stuck down there however
  • 00:25:40
    mimic had seen Gregory and thanks to its
  • 00:25:42
    code being part of glitch trap was able
  • 00:25:44
    to put its mimicking to work to
  • 00:25:45
    impersonate him and reach out to Cassie
  • 00:25:47
    from within the pizza Plex Cassie had
  • 00:25:49
    been worried about Gregory since after
  • 00:25:51
    he had broken free and hid out in the
  • 00:25:52
    pizz Plex he was reported missing so
  • 00:25:54
    when she got a message supposedly from
  • 00:25:56
    him saying he was in the pizz Plex which
  • 00:25:57
    had been closed for repairs thanks to
  • 00:25:59
    the earthquake she went to go find him
  • 00:26:00
    the real Gregory caught wind of this and
  • 00:26:02
    frantically tried to contact Cassie to
  • 00:26:04
    in her but was largely unsuccessful once
  • 00:26:06
    inside Cassie got a vany mask that
  • 00:26:08
    implanted a transponder in her head the
  • 00:26:10
    mimic with its connections to the vanny
  • 00:26:11
    mask was able to manipulate Cassie and
  • 00:26:13
    deactivating the security notes keeping
  • 00:26:15
    it trapped the mix's program that had
  • 00:26:17
    been keeping mimik there was not happy
  • 00:26:18
    about this but was unsuccessful in
  • 00:26:20
    stopping Cassie from deactivating it and
  • 00:26:22
    the rest of security as mimik guided her
  • 00:26:23
    through the building via walkie-talkie
  • 00:26:25
    unfortunately for Cassie deactivating
  • 00:26:27
    security and knocking down the
  • 00:26:28
    intentionally placed concrete wall did
  • 00:26:30
    not reveal Gregory but rather the mimic
  • 00:26:32
    who only didn't kill her because Roxy
  • 00:26:34
    one of the glamrock animatronics liked
  • 00:26:35
    Cassie and fought it off long enough for
  • 00:26:37
    the real Gregory to finally reach Cassie
  • 00:26:39
    and guide her to an elevator that would
  • 00:26:40
    allow her to escape and for Gregory to
  • 00:26:42
    explain what's going on however while
  • 00:26:43
    Cassie did make it to the elevator the
  • 00:26:45
    mimic was able to hijack it and the
  • 00:26:47
    intercom cutting Gregory off mid-
  • 00:26:48
    expanation and impersonating him once
  • 00:26:50
    again as it sent the elevator plummeting
  • 00:26:52
    even further beneath the pizzeria where
  • 00:26:54
    the mimic Now using Roxy's voice called
  • 00:26:56
    out to her and that my friends covers
  • 00:26:57
    just about the entire main story of Five
  • 00:26:59
    Nights at Freddy's not that there isn't
  • 00:27:01
    more to talk about of course from
  • 00:27:02
    Haunted wet floor signs to a new scooper
  • 00:27:04
    in the burned out Pizzeria there is a
  • 00:27:05
    lot going on that we still don't know or
  • 00:27:07
    only have loose story connections for
  • 00:27:09
    and as such are difficult to incorporate
  • 00:27:11
    into the overarching narrative but until
  • 00:27:12
    future games give us some answers this
  • 00:27:14
    video should serve as a solid base for
  • 00:27:15
    understanding just what's going on in
  • 00:27:17
    Five Nights at Freddy's and hey if you
  • 00:27:18
    don't like my interpretations even after
  • 00:27:20
    watching my explanation videos there are
  • 00:27:21
    plenty of other FNAF YouTubers who
  • 00:27:23
    either recently or will soon be
  • 00:27:25
    releasing their own timelines that you
  • 00:27:26
    might like better half of the fun in
  • 00:27:28
    FNAF is finding what story makes the
  • 00:27:29
    most sense to you so don't be shy to
  • 00:27:31
    combine theories or come up with your
  • 00:27:32
    own interpretations now remember the
  • 00:27:34
    special announcement I mentioned earlier
  • 00:27:35

  • 00:27:36
