Okay, so over the past few months I've introduced to the Five Night's at Freddy's fandom by a friend of mine. And, I'll admit, I LOVE IT!
Not only is it a highly liked game like Undertale (don't you dare think I left that fandom), it also has a VERY interesting and intriguing storyline. Which is the same thing that got me into Undertale.
But ONE thing that confuses me - besides the bunch of thing that still need to learn about this game - is the timeline.
If you're an Undertale fan like me, you'd know about timelines. Because not only does the game evolve around the different timelines you could achieve, but the creation of the multiple AUs of the fandom evolve around the ideas of timelines that didn't happen, could happen, or might happen. But everybody knows the two main timelines; the True Pacifist and the Genocide timeline.
Anyway, from what I know ad what I've learn, there are five canon FNAF games; Five Night at Freddy's 1, Five Night at Freddy's 2, Five Night at Freddy's 3, Five Night at Freddy's 4, and Five Night at Freddy's: Sister Location.
And even though I know FNAF World is a canon game published by Scott Cawthon himself, and that it has clues for the franchise, and it had sneak peeks for Sister Location, I wouldn't count it as a canon part of the FNAF storyline. Why? I mean, have you SEEN the game? It's total MADNESS! And that's saying something coming from someone who's talking about a game that involves a 'family friendly' restaurant that has haunted animatronic mascots and a lot of dead children. Or, for logical people or whatever, the obvious difference is the game style; all the other games are a type of horror games, while FNAF World is a RPG-like game.
Anyway, ever since Sister Location came out, people had to rearrange the FNAF timeline according to the events in Sister Location. And when the Sister Location cutscenes came out, I saw a lot of people going even more crazed.
So because of this I don't know what version of the storyline I should believe in or follow.
So, I've decided.
After watching the FNAF Let's Play videos and different multiple theory videos of YouTube as well as some research throughout the Five Night at Freddy's Wiki and information from my friends, I decided to piece together my own storyline and interpretation of the FNAF universe.
So, I'm gonna start with the main Five Night at Freddy's timeline; the events that occur in Five Night at Freddy's 1 to Five Night at Freddy's 4.
Here's the basic timeline:
FNAF 4 - FNAF 2 - FNAF 1 - FNAF 3
Here's the explanation for every game.
Five Night at Freddy's 4:
Fredbear's Family Diner was a family friendly establishment. One of the workers was Purple Guy (since throughout these four games they don't actually name him, I'm naming him the Purple Guy for this timeline). He had a family with two kids (or possibly three if you believe that he has a daughter. And with the girl's room in his house, that's highly possible). His eldest son (the Foxy Bully), enjoys scaring his younger brother (the Crying Child) by jumpscaring him with a Foxy mask on.
The Crying Child didn't have many friends, except for his dolls of the animatronics. (also, side theory; the reason why he has those plushies even though the animatronics didn't exist at the time is that since his father work at the diner, his father had an idea for the animatronics and decided to make/give his son those plushies of the future animatronics they were planning). His best friend was the Fredbear doll, who helps him and watches over him.
One day, it was the Crying Child's birthday. His brother and and his friend teases him on how much of a crybaby he was. Then, they decided to scare and prank him my bringing him up to the jaws of Fredbear, saying to the Crying Child to give Fredbear a kiss. The shoved the Crying Child's head into Fredbear's jaws, and the animatronic crushes the child's head.
He was taken to the hospital, but as he was in a coma, he had nightmares that his friends, the animatronic dolls, turned into horrifying robots and hunted him down.
But thankfully, he survived the experience and lived on, even though his frontal lobe was damaged. (Although he could maybe actually have died too).
Five Night at Freddy's 2:
Fredbear's Family Diner shut down and was left for a long time. Then, they opened up Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, featuring the toy animatronics.
Purple might also worked at the Pizza, or he visits it often because it remains him of the days he worked at the diner. But maybe after seeing all the happy children there, he is reminded of the unfortunate incident (or death) that his son went through. Then one day, something snapped. Maybe he was sick of seeing all the happy children, or maybe it was the birthday of a child that was on the same day as his son's birthday. Finally, he crosses the line. He lured four (or five) children into the back room and killed them.
Then, not long after, the Puppet pitied the poor children. He attempted to give the children a new life by putting then into the unfinished plush animatronics, but kinda failed a bit.
Five Night at Freddy's 1:
They opened another Freddy Fazbear's Pizza establishment, but a smaller one. They finished the plush animatronics and placed them there. But the children's souls that were in the suits were filled with anger and hatered. They only remember that a man killed them, which is why they wanna kill Mike Schmidt (us, the player) and stuff us into a suit, so we have to suffer the same way they did.
Five Night at Freddy's 3:
The pizzeria was shut down due to health hazards (possibly because of the mold or the smell of carcasses caused by the children's bodies that were inside the suit). They pizzeria was shut down and was left. The Purple Guy, probably enraged by the fact the animatronics caused the closing of the pizzeria he invented, destroyed them. But by destroying the suits, the children's souls were released. They all haunted the Purple Guy, scaring him. He attempts to hide in the Spring Bonnie suit, but the springlocks broke, killing him. The children's souls were finally at peace, and they moved on to the afterlife.
The Purple Guy's spirit lingers and haunt Spring Bonnie's suit. He becomes Sprintrap. He is trapped in the storage room for thirty years, until he is freed. He roams Fazbear's Fright, trying to attack the player, maybe out of the anger that was stored for all those years.
At the end of the week, the attraction was burnt to the ground. Springtrap was found and was in the newspapers. He was probably found and sold at an auction.
There.
That is my interpretation of the main FNAF timeline. The reason why I didn't add Sister Location into this is because when Scott released Five Night at Freddy's 4, he said it was the final chapter or the original storyline.
And since Sister Location came after Five Night at Freddy's 4, I believe it that Sister Location is an entirely new timeline.
Now, when the Sister Location timeline is coming out I'm not sure. I'm still trying to piece it together.
Anyway, that was all! Comment down below your thoughts, ideas, and questions about this version of the timeline.
Thanks guys! See ya next time!
