Please no hate for me getting some stuff wrong, it is FNAF after all :) Intro Lore Summary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP0ke-hNseU Dawko Scott Cawthon Interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=03E_hZdXqBE Dream Theory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WvpO8To1qFg Golden Freddy Stitchwraith Theory: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uZnJNgx3gUU FuhNaff's Modern FNAF Timeline: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VzgFNdEj_mI My Twitter: https://twitter.com/italian_brussel Credits I forgor: kaka_v420 for meme at 2 minutes Dawko for interview and gameplay clips I put a Mirth clip in the video not knowing what they did. That’s my mistake for not doing more research on the creator and I would never promote them intentionally. I apologize. Some theories I didn't mention due to time and clarity reasons (or I just forgor) The Toy animatronics have scanners connected to a criminal database, this was done in hopes of catching William. After FNAF 2, the Toy animatronics are scrapped for parts and the Withered animatronics (Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie, Foxy, Chica, Golden Freddy) with the spirits of the Missing Children inside are moved to the FNAF 1 location, the location they died in. There is a bit of confusion regarding if the FNAF 2 phone calls are prerecorded and not meant for Jeremy, as Phone Guy says “new summer job,” when the game takes place in November. Well, in the phone calls, Phone Guy addresses the listener as the second employee who’s worked there, and since Fritz is employee 3 as seen on his pink slip, this confirms that Jeremy is employee 2, confirming that Phone Guy is indeed talking to Jeremy. The gameplay of FNAF 4 is not from the Crying Child’s perspective in the observation room that William built, but simply a dream. The reasons for this from a narrative perspective are sparse, but it makes sense for a couple of reasons. We see Mike’s drawing of Nightmare Fredbear in the Survival Logbook. This confirms Mike being the FNAF 4 player character, not Crying Child. This also means that William could have placed Michael in the observation room as well, just like he would later do with Crying Child. There are also a lot of weird elements in FNAF 4 that indicate it being a dream, which was likely the original intent. But since Scott retconned the Nightmare animatronics to be real in Sister Location, he needed another reason for FNAF 4’s dreamlike appearance. So, he decided to make Mike the player character of FNAF 4. Long story short, in 1983, Crying Child did indeed experience the horrors of very real Nightmare animatronics, but in 1993 during FNAF 1, Michael dreamed of the Nightmare animatronics coming to get him. This also satisfies a weird quota of Mike being the player character in every FNAF game until UCN. Cool, I guess. Another mystery in this game is that at the end of each night in Sister Location, Mike goes home and watches his favorite show, The Immortal and the Restless. Like we said before, the show is a parallel to William and his wife’s relationship. But the thing that has always stumped me is the ending of the show. Even when all has gone to shit, Clara and Vlad still make up in the end. It seemed impossible. That’s when it hit me. It’s Mike’s favorite show. Survival Logbook page 30, when asked his favorite TV character, Mike writes, “Clara from “The Immortal and The Restless” because everything about this place is crazy and no one seems to notice except me. Mike looks up to Clara, and probably loves the show because it’s so similar to his own family’s situation, but this time, it has a happy ending. In the real world, his mother either committed suicide or died, or something, most likely due to her abusive husband William, but in the show, the parents make up. It’s the happy ending the Michael has always wanted. #fnaf #fnaftimeline #securitybreach 0:00 Intro 1:31 Approach/History 5:47 The FNAF 4 Problem 8:51 Characters 10:58 Starting the Timeline 12:16 Fredbear's and Freddy's 14:11 The Puppet 16:42 Midnight Motorist 21:36 Circus Baby's Pizza World Incident 28:21 The Nightmare Animatronics 30:42 The Bite of '83 31:23 Franchising/Rebranding 32:40 The Springlock Failures 33:58 The Missing Children Incident 38:12 Fruity Maze and Mangle 39:54 Freddy's Closes 40:14 FNAF 2 43:38 FNAF 1 and the Logbook 46:26 William's Death 47:35 Sister Location (FNAF 5) 48:46 Chica's Party World 49:50 Ennard and Baby Split 50:17 FNAF 3 52:06 Pizzeria Simulator (FNAF 6) 54:41 Ultimate Custom Night 56:53 The New Era of FNAF 58:54 Credits and Thank You
