Five Nights At Freddy’s

About this world

Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF) is a dark horror franchise about a family pizza restaurant chain where robotic animal mascots become haunted by the spirits of murdered children. The entire story spans decades, books, and many games, driven by one man’s evil actions and the nightmares that follow.

1. The Beginning: Fredbear’s and the First Deaths (1970s–1983)
The Founders: Two men, William Afton and Henry Emily, open a small diner called Fredbear’s Family Diner. They use robotic suits that humans can also wear using spring-locks.
The First Victim: William Afton murders Henry’s young daughter, Charlotte. Her spirit possesses a puppet mascot called the Marionette.
William’s younger son (the “Crying Child”) gets accidentally crunched in the mouth of the golden bear robot (Fredbear) during a birthday party.

2. The Murders and the Early Games (1985–1993)
The Missing Children Incident (1985): William Afton wears a yellow rabbit suit to lure five children into a back room and kills them.
The Possession: The Puppet places the dead children’s souls inside the restaurant’s main robots: Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie, Chica, Foxy, and Golden Freddy.
FNAF 2 and FNAF 1: Set in 1987 and 1993, night security guards (including William’s older son, Michael Afton, working undercover) try to survive the night. The haunted robots try to kill the guards because they confuse them with the killer.

3. Sister Location and the Suffering Afton Family (1990s)
Underground Facility: William Afton builds a secret facility to rent out killer robot animatronics, like Circus Baby (who is possessed by William’s daughter, Elizabeth).
Michael’s Fate: Michael is tricked, and a robot hollows out his body from the inside. Michael becomes a walking purple corpse, vowing to find his father and stop him.

4. The First Big Fire (2015–2023)Springtrap: William Afton tries to hide from the ghosts of the children he killed inside his old yellow rabbit suit. The spring-locks fail, crushing him to death. He becomes Springtrap, a rotting corpse trapped inside a decaying rabbit suit.
Fazbear’s Fright (2023): A horror attraction burns down, but Springtrap survives.

5. The Ultimate Fire and Peace (2024)
Pizzeria Simulator: Henry Emily and Michael Afton team up to build one last fake pizzeria. They lure all the remaining haunted robots and Springtrap into the building.
The Burn: Henry burns the building to the ground, freeing the tortured souls and ending William Afton’s physical reign of terror.

6. The Digital Era and The Mimic (Modern Games)
Glitchtrap: Fazbear Entertainment scans old circuit boards into a virtual reality game. William Afton’s evil consciousness returns as a digital computer virus named Glitchtrap.
Vanny: Glitchtrap mind-controls a security guard named Vanessa, turning her into a villain helper named Vanny.
The Mimic: In Security Breach and Ruin, a terrifying, ancient, shape-shifting robot called The Mimic takes over. It copies human behavior and continues the cycle of violence beneath a massive modern mega-pizzaplex.
