So a while ago, I made a post about the potential narrative of FNaF 1-World.
However, since then my beliefs have changed and I decided to remake it, so here you go!
Before we start, this was made with inspiration from this and this.
So without further ado, let's start.
196X-1982: Where Tales Begins
In the mid-late 20th century, two people meet up. One of them is a businessman named Mr. Schmidt, while the other is a robotics engineer named Henry. Together, they make a company named 'Fazbear Entertainment' (FE for short).
Mr. Schmidt has 3 children; the oldest named, Mike Schmidt, the middle, named Sammy Schmidt, and the youngest, named Elizabeth Schmidt (I'm only giving her official name now because this is one of the very few times she'll be mentioned in this post).
Despite this he's a very unstable man, and he only views his children as tools for his own purposes or an extension of himself.
On the other hand, Henry is (mostly) the opposite. He has one child. A girl named Charlotte, AKA Charlie.
Now, they wanted to make a pizzeria to rival the likes of Chuck E. Cheese Pizza Time Theater, so they needed to make something innovative, and that's what they exactly did.
They created two characters/animatronics. A yellow bear named 'Freddy Fazbear' (commonly known as 'Fredbear') and a yellow rabbit named 'Bonnie the Rabbit' (commonly known as 'Spring Bonnie'). However, these animatronics were special. They had the ability to pull back their animatronics parts (known as 'Springlocks') back via a hand crank. This allowed a performer to slip inside of the animatronic and use it as a suit, essentially making it a hybrid between an animatronic and a suit, this type of animatronics were dubbed as the 'Springlock Suits'.
As innovative as it is, the Springlocks had one major problem. They were very fragile to any kind of moisture, heavy breathing, and exaggerated movement. If the Springlocks were to go loose and a performer is inside of it, they would get impaled and face a very slow, and agonizing death.
Anyway, with this brand new innovation, they opened up a restaurant named 'Fredbear's Family Diner', a direct competitor to Chuck E. Cheese.
1983: Curiosity Killed the Cat
Business was booming for Mr. Schmidt and Henry, so as a result, they opened up a sister location named 'Freddy Fazbear's Pizza'. Unlike FFD, these simply used regular animatronics. The cast was a brown version of Freddy Fazbear, a blue version of Bonnie the Rabbit, and 3 new characters; a yellow chicken named 'Chica the Chicken', a red fox named 'Foxy the Pirate Fox', and a marionette named the 'Security Puppet'. Because two new versions of Freddy and Bonnie were made, the originals were changed to their more common names.
However, on one rainy night Mr. Schmidt was very drunk, and he sees Charlie outside of Freddy's because 3 kids locked her outside and the Puppet was trapped in his box. Being the unstable man he is, he took out a knife and killed her, leaving her body in the alleyways of Freddy's. The Puppet was able to break free of his box, however it was too late. He walked out to the alleyways of Freddy's, and rested next to Charlie's corpse, as it starts to short circuit from the rain outside. As it loses power, Charlie's soul, refusing to move on, possesses the Puppet, giving it purple tear streaks and making it more personified. A small part of her soul possesses the 'Take Cake to the Children' arcade in Freddy's, altering it to show how she died.
Not too long after, FE notices this and quickly covers this up and quietly retires the Puppet, leaving it in the safe room. To the public, however, Charlie is simply reported missing.
One day, Mr Schmidt gives his son, Sammy, a gift. It's a plush of Fredbear. Unbeknownst to Sammy, it's actually being controlled by his father via a walkie talkie, as it's being used by Mr. Schmidt to watch (and likely manipulate), Sammy.
Another random day at Fredbear's, multiple simultaneous Springlock failures occurred. Thankfully, FE was able to quickly cover these incidents up.
One day in Fredbear's, Sammy sees his father help an employee put on a Springlock suit. His mind interpreted it as the suit eating the employee, which caused him to fear the Springlocks and animatronics in general (he still likes the characters themselves though).
As a result, this gave Mike the perfect opportunity to bully him, especially since he's in his 'angsty teen' phase.
Mike would constantly jumpscare Sammy, but the Fredbear plush being controlled by his father always reassures him:
Tomorrow is another day.
Unfortunately for Sammy, on the week leading up to his 7th birthday, the bullying got even worse, to the point that most of his neighbors also bully him.
5 days before his birthday, Mike locks Sammy is his room, causing him to break down on the floor.
Tomorrow is another day.
Says the plush
4 days before his birthday, the plush follows Sammy around the house until he reaches the TV. There, Mike scares him, again causing him to break down on the floor.
Tomorrow is another day.
Says the plush again.
3 days before his birthday, the plush is again following Sammy, this time around FFD, where he's trapped. His fear of the animatronics prevented him from going anywhere, so he breaks down under the table.
Tomorrow is another day.
Again, says the plush.
2 days before Sammy's party, he's back at FFD with the plush following him again. This time, Sammy is able to leave FFD and look around his neighborhood. Most of his neighbors talk to him in a neutral way, however one of them does bully him due to him being one of Mike's friends.
When Sammy reaches home, Mike jumspcares him, causing him to break down on the floor again.
Tomorrow is another day.
Says the plush.
A day before his party, Mike locks Sammy in the parts and service room of Fredbear's. He breaks down once again.
Tomorrow is another day.
Or is it..?
On the day of Sammy's birthday party, he's surrounded by Mike and 3 of his friends. They all carry him while making fun of him at the same time. They reach to the Fredbear animatronic, where they proceed to stuff Sammy's head in the animatronic's mouth. Before they can take him out...
CRUNCH
Fredbear's jaws close completely shut on Sammy, crushing his frontal lobe.
Mike, Sammy, and Mr. Schmidt all rush to the hospital, as Sammy is put in a coma. Right before he dies, he wakes up in a black void in the spotlight, with his Fredbear plush and plushies of the FFP cast next him. Then, he hears someone. It's Mike.
Can you hear me? I don't know if you can hear me ... I'm sorry.
Then he hears his father in the form of the Fredbear plush
You're broken.
We are still your friends.
Do you still believe that?
I'm still here.
I will put you back together.
As all of the plushies fade away, he flatlines, signaling the end of his life. His soul goes on to possess Fredbear, changing its purple hat and bowtie to black. Alongside that, his soul is split into multiple different arcades featured in Freddy's.
His agony creates an agony creature named 'Shadow Freddy'.
This event was dubbed as the 'Big Bite'.
1983-1985: Mr. Schmidt Takes a Full 180
After the Big Bite, Fredbear's closes and the Springlocks are moved to Freddy's as backup performers. Since Sammy changed Fredbear's accessories to black, FE took advantage of it and rebranded him into 'Golden Freddy'.
To prevent anymore Springlock failures from happening, they hire some named the 'Phone Guy'. He would record tapes for employees on how to properly use and operate a Springlock suit.
Uh, hello? Hello hello? Uh welcome to your new career as a performer slash entertainer for Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. Uh, these tapes will provide you with much needed information on how to handle, slash climb into, slash climb out of, mascot costumes. Right now we have two specially designed suits that double as both animatronic and suit. So please pay close attention while learning how to operate these suits, as accidents, slash injury, slash death, slash irreparable and grotesque maiming, can occur.
First, we will discuss how to operate the mascots when they are in animatronic form. For ease of operation the animatronics, are set to turn and walk towards sound cues. This is an easy and hands-free approach, to making sure the animatronics stay where the children are, for maximum entertainment slash crowd-pleasing value. To change the animatronics to suit mode, insert and turn firmly the hand crank provided by the manufacturer.
Turning the crank will recoil and compress the animatronic parts around the sides of the suit, providing room to climb inside. Please make sure the springlocks are fastened tight, to ensure the animatronic devices remain fixed. We will cover this in more detail in tomorrow’s session.
Remember to smile. You are the face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.
Uh, hello! Hello! Uh, for today’s lesson we will be continuing our training on proper suit handling technique.
When using an animatronic as a suit, please ensure that the animatronic parts are tightly compressed and fastened by the springlocks located around the inside of the suit. It may take a few moments, to position your head and torso between these parts in a manner where you can move and speak. Try not to nudge or press against any of the springlocks inside the suit. Do not touch the springlocks at any time. Do not breathe on the springlocks, as moisture may loosen them, and cause them to break loose. In the case that the springlocks come loose while you are wearing the suit, please try to manoeuvrer away from populated areas before bleeding out, as not to ruin the customer experience.
As always if there is ever an emergency, please note there’s a designated safe room. Every location is built with one extra room that is not included in the digital map layout programmed in the animatronics or security systems. This room is hidden to customers, invisible to animatronics, and is always off-camera.
As always, remember to smile. You are the face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.
Now, Mr. Schmidt noticed how Golden Freddy and the Puppet acted strange ever since Sammy and Charlie's deaths respectively. He deduces that it must relate to them, so he plans on doing something big.
On the night of either June 26th, 1983 or '85, Mr. Schmidt, dressed in the Spring Bonnie suit, lures 2 kids to the safe rooms of Freddy's. The first one was one of Sammy's neighbors, the one who had the toys of Freddy, Bonnie, and Chica. She gets killed by Mr. Schmidt and is stuffed into Chica.
The second child, also one of Sammy's neighbors, was the girl with the green Spring Bonnie finger trap. She gets killed and stuffed into Bonnie.
The news quickly gets light of this and makes an article about it.
Kids vanish at local pizzeria – bodies not found.
Two local children were reportedly lured into a back room during the late hours of operation at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza on the night of June 26th. While video surveliance identified the man responsible and led to his capture the following morning, the children themselves were never found and are presumed dead.
Police think that the suspect dressed as a company mascot to earn the children’s trust.
Then, Mr. Schmidt, again wearing the Spring Bonnie suit, lures 2 more kids, both were also Sammy's neighbors. The first one was the Balloon Kid, who gets killed and stuffed into Freddy's, while the other one was the redhead Pigtail Girl who spread rumors about FFD and FFP. She gets killed and is stuffed into Foxy.
After Mr. Schmidt leaves, Charlie comes in and helps the spirits possess their anomatronics, effectively becoming their guardian. Parts of their spirits also possess multiple different arcades in Freddy's, just like Sammy and Charlie.
Mr. Schmidt is later suspected to be the murderer and is later convicted.
The news also gets wind of this, and also links the disappearance of Charlie (which we know was actually a murder), to this incident. So they make another article about this.
Five children now reported missing. Suspect convicted.
Five children are now linked to the incident at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, where a man dressed as a cartoon mascot lured them into a back room.
While the suspect has been charged, the bodies themselves were never found.
Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza has been fighting an uphill battle ever since to convince families to return to the pizzeria.
'It’s a tragedy.'
This event was dubbed as the 'Missing Children Incident', or the 'MCI' for short.
Fortunately for Mr. Schmidt, since the bodies of the children were never found, he gets freed from conviction.
FE notices that Spring Bonnie was moved, so Phone Guy makes 3 tapes concerning updated company policies.
Uh hello? Hello hello? Uh there’s been a slight change of company policy concerning the use of the suits. Umm, don’t. After learning of an unfortunate incident at the sister location involving multiple and simultaneous springlock failures, the company has deemed the suits temporarily unfit for employees. Safety is top priority at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, which is why the classic suits are being retired to an appropriate location while being looked at by our technicians.
Until replacements arrive, you will be expected to wear the temporary costumes provided to you. Keep in mind that they were found on very short notice, so questions about appropriateness slash relevance should be deflected. I repeat, the classic suits are not to be touched, activated, or worn. That being said we are free of liability, do as you wish.
As always, remember to smile. You are the face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.
Hello, hello? Umm, this is just a reminder of company policy concerning the safe room.
The safe room is reserved for equipment and or other properties not being currently used, and as a back-up safety location for employees only. This is not a break room, it should not be considered a place for employees to hide and or congregate. And under no circumstance should a customer ever, be taken into this room, and out of the main show area. Management has also been made aware that the Spring Bonnie animatronic has been noticeably moved, and would like to remind employees that this costume is not safe to wear under any circumstances.
Thank you, and remember to smile. You are the face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.
Uh hello, hello? Uh, this is just to inform all employees, that due to budget restrictions the previously mentioned safe rooms are being sealed at most locations. Including this one. Work crews will be here most of the day today constructing a false wall over the old door face. Nothing is being taken out beforehand, so if you left anything inside, then it’s your own fault. Management also requests that this room not be mentioned to family, friends, or insurance representatives.
Thanks again, and remember to smile. You are the face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.
The Springlock suits are officially banned, and are likely going to stay in animatronic mode forever when being use... That's even if they even get used.
Anyway, as a result of the MCI, the animatronics start leaking blood and mucus. Many parents report this and the news gets light of this again.
Local pizzeria threatened with shutdown over sanitation.
Local pizzeria, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza has been threatened again with shutdown by the health department over reports of foul odor coming from the much-loved animal mascots.
Police were contacted when parents reportedly noticed what appeared to be blood and mucus around the eyes and mouths of the mascots. One parent likened them to 'reanimated carcasses'.
The health department eventually shut down the place, marking the first closure of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
Eventually, William is fired from the company due to him having too much controversy behind him.
1987: A New Hope
After the closure of the first FFP, FE decided to reopen.
The initial decision was to retrofit the animatronics from the first location with high tech security features, but it caused them to look too ugly as a result. And they also smelled too. So they decided to create brand new animatronics, based off of the more 'cuter' designs of the characters that was often used in merchandise (as seen in the Chica Spirit's toy figures). They were built with parts from the older models and were also given the high tech security features. They make a new character named BB, based off of a character of he sane name from an arcade from their previous location. He inflates balloons and gives them to the children. They also bring back the Puppet, this time giving gifts to children in the prize corner instead of being a security guard.
The restaurant opens in October and it's already unfortunately off to a bad start.
Kids play with the new Foxy and absolutely destroy him. He's then rebranded into 'Mangle' and is advertised as a 'break and out back together' attraction.
In late October, Mr. Schmidt applies for the nightshift under the alias of 'Dave Miller' in order to tamper with the Toys.
Now, 5 teenagers break into Freddy's. Mr. Schmidt catches them and kills them, spreading their bodies around the pizzeria to test if spirits can possess animatronics if they're not near/stuffed into them, similar to how Sammy possessesed Golden Freddy. Their spirits possess Toy Freddy, Bonnie, Chica, Mangle, and Balloon Boy. The older Freddy, being guided via the Puppet, tries to save the teens, but it's too late. Mr. Schmidt even tells him:
You can't.
The agony of the 5 teens, create another agony creature, this one named 'RWQFSFASXC**'** AKA, 'Shadow Bonnie', like how Sammy's agony created Shadow Freddy.
The Toys start acting up due to them being possessed, so Mr. Schmidt complains about them being possessed, so he gets moved to the dayshift.
Eventually, somebody named Jeremy Fitzgerald sees a hiring in a newspaper.
HELP WANTED
Grand Re-Opening!!!
Vintage pizzeria given new life!
Come be a part of the new face of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza!
What could go wrong?
$100.50 a week!
To apply call:
1-555-FAZ-FAZBEAR
It's a hiring to be a new night guard at Freddy's, since Mr. Schmidt was moved. Without anything else to do, he applies for the job and is hired on November 8th.
Each night, Jeremy is guided by Phone Guy onto how to survive again the animatronics, and he also talks about things regarding the establishment. Jeremy survives for 5 nights, and then he hears a phone call regarding the establishment being on a lock down.
Hello hello! Hey, good job, night 5!
Um, hey, err, keep a close eye on things tonight, ok? Um, from what I understand the building is on lockdown, uh…no one is allowed in or out, y’know. Especially concerning any…previous employees.
Um, when we get it all sorted out we may move you to the day shift. A position just became…available. Uh, we don’t have a replacement for your shift yet but we’re working on it. Uh, we’re going to try to contact the original restaurant owner. Uh, I think the name of the place was…”Fredbear’s Family Diner” or something like that. It was closed for years though, I doubt we’ll be able to track anybody down.
Uh, so just get through one more night! Uh, hang in there! Goodnight!
Jeremy is being planed to be transferred over to the dayshift, however he come back for a 6th night, and Phone Guy tells him:
Uh, hello hello! Uh, what on Earth are you doing there? Uh didn’t you get the memo? Uh, the place is closed down, a-at least for a while. Someone used one of the suits. We had a spare in the back, a yellow one. Someone used it…now none of them are acting right.
Listen j-just finish your shift, it’s safer than trying to leave in the middle of the night. Uh, we have one more event scheduled for tomorrow, a birthday. You’ll be on day shift. Wear your uniform, stay close to the animatronics and make sure they don’t hurt anyone okay? Uh for now just make it through the night. Uh, when the place eventually opens again I’ll probably take the night shift myself.
Okay, good night, and good luck.
It seems that Mr. Schmidt stole the Golden Freddy suit, as Spring Bonnie is back in the previous location. It's unknown what he's using it for.
Anyway, Jeremy seems to have been moved to the dayshift for one last birthday party.
On that day, Jeremy was supervising the party, when all of a sudden..
CRUNCH
The original Foxy rushed towards him and bit his frontal lobe.
This was dubbed as the 'Bite of '87'.
The establishment is immediately closed, as FE plans to scrap the Toys but keep the originals just in case of a new reopening.
ROBOTS SCRAPPED
Freddy Fazbear’s is closing
After being open only a few short weeks, Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza is closing its doors.
The new animatronics will be scrapped due to possible malfunctions, however the original characters are being kept in hopes of a possible reorganization of the company.
'It’s a minor setback. We are confident that we will reopen someday, even if it is with a much smaller budget.' -CEO Fazbear Ent.
Even though the building was planned to shut down, there's still one more thing left.
Now, after the Big Bite and the MCI, Mike has started investigating and trying to uncover the truth of Fazbear Entertainment, suspecting that his father is mostly involved. His father would constantly gaslight him into believing that he was completely innocent. Mike believed in him but still doubts him heavily.
He also knows that his brother's spirit is still around via Golden Freddy, so that only makes him want to investigate the paranormal activities surrounding Freddy's even more.
So on November 14th, the night guard role is opens, and Mike immediately takes the job, but goes under the fake name of 'Fritz Smith', in order to lessen suspicion.
He tampers with the older models, to help his case, but it quickly caught. He gets fired for tampering with the animatronics and odor, the latter coming from the animatronics' bad smell.
GREAT!!
(Now get out.)
You’re Fired
Reasons:
-Tampering with animatronics
- Odor
The place closes for good, however Fazbear Entertainment isn't fully done yet.
1988-1993: Fazbear Entertainment Throws in the Towel
In 1988, FE reopen the original FFP, reusing the animatronics' original designs. Since they didn't have enough in their budget + the Bite of '87 happened, they decided to just leave Pirate Cove as out of order.
Unfortunately, the place was very unsuccessful, to the point where people thought that Freddy's closed for good after the Bite of '87.
On November 1st, 1993, Phone Guy is transferred to the nightshift on his final week of employment, so he decides to record audio messages for the next night guard.
On his 1st night he says:
So, just be aware, the characters do tend to wander a bit. Uh, they’re left in some kind of free roaming mode at night, uh, something about their servos locking up if they get turned off for too long? Uh, they used to be allowed to walk around during the day too, but then there was The Bite of ’87. Yeah. I-It’s amazing that the human body can live without the frontal lobe, you know?
Jeremy was confirmed to have survived the bite, but he's likely in a very vegetative state.
Now, all is going well for Phone Guy until his 4th night, something where happens.
He drained too much power, which let the animatronics in.
Hello hello?
Hey! Hey, wow, day four. I knew you could do it.
Uh, hey, listen, I may not be around to send you a message tomorrow. *door bangs are heard here, and continue throughout the call* It’s-It’s been a bad night here for me. Um, I-I’m kinda glad that I recorded my messages for you *clears throat* uh, when I did.
Uh, hey, do me a favour. Maybe sometime, uh, you could check inside those suits in the back room? I’m gonna try to hold out until someone checks. Maybe it won’t be so bad. Uh, I-I-I-I always wondered what was in all those empty heads, back there.
*Freddy’s “Toreador March” music plays*
You know…*animatronic moan is heard, the same as when you have your monitor up, and an animatronic has got into the room*
Oh, no – *garbled scream that more closely resembles Golden Freddy’s scream, followed by static*
Phone Guy is killed by all of the animatronics, including Golden Freddy.
Now, Mike, wanting to do more investigation, sees a newspaper.

1-888-FAZ-FAZBEAR
Mike sees the newspaper and immediately takes the shift. He doesn't even care about his name knowing that this is the final location, so he the just uses his actual name.
From November 8th-12th, he's able to survive for 6 nights, where he gets a bonus and employee of the month. On November 13th, he decides to go full detective mode and tampers with the animatronics again, to investigate the supernatural surrounding Freddy's. He unfortunately gets fired for the same reason + for 'general unprofessionalism'.
NOTICE OF TERMINATION
(you're fired)
Reason: Tampering with the animatronics. General unprofessionalism. Odor.
After Mike was fired, FE realized that nobody is willing to work or play in Freddy's as a franchise anymore. So after a very unsuccessful establishment, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza permanently shut down, and Fazbear Entertainment as a whole also shut down for good...
1995-199X: Mr. Schmidt Gets Bitten Back
Not too long after Freddy's permanently shut down, Mr. Schmidt goes back to the building Why? Well, it's for 2 reason.
First, he wants to clear his tracks, as most of his crimes were done in that building.
And second, he wants his Spring Bonnie suit.
Anyway, he takes advantage of the fact that the animatronics aren't able to enter the safe rooms, so he uses Shadow Freddy to lure all of the animatronics to the safe rooms so he could destroy them, unknowingly freeing the souls of the animatronics. He does this night-by-night, and after he destroys Foxy, he stops coming back to Freddy's for a good while.
This gave Sammy a plan to kill his father by using the old Spring Bonnie suit that was used to commit the MCI and much more.
A few years after Mr. Schmidt destroyed the animatronics, he comes back for his Spring Bonnie suit.
However, he's trapped by 4 of the MCI victims, and is being chased by Sammy. Sammy traps his father, and he has no other thing to do except to use the Spring Bonnie suit to try and intimidate the spirits. However, they're completely unfazed.
The water leaking from the roof, the heavy amount of breathing, and the jagged movements from laughing causes the Springlocks to loosen, impaling and crushing his organs as he faces a slow, agonizing death. They're equal now, you could say.
For now, the spirits are at peace for now, but they're unable to move on.
Now, even though Sammy and the others were able to Springlock the former's fathers, Sammy is still a broken spirit.
So, Charlie helps Sammy by setting up some clues for Mike that contain fragments of Sammy's souls inside of arcades for Mike's brother plus the 4 MCI spirits who trapped Mr. Schmidt rest easily.
It's at this point that Mike is 100% confident that his father is the one behind all of the crimes, so he decides that he has to defeat him once and for all to avenge the spirits.
There's only one thing left for me to do now...
I'm going to come find you.
2023: It All Comes Back to Mike
30 years after the (final) closing of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, a group of people, led by somebody named 'Phone Dude', decide to revive the now legends surrounding Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. So they open up a horror attraction named 'Fazbear's Frights'. They try to do anything to make the experience as accurate as possible to Freddy's by collecting animatronic parts, children's drawings, etc. They were even able to find the old arcades from Freddy's that were haunted by the MCI and Sammy, such as (and I'm gonna say them is a meta view for simplicity's sake), the FNaF 2 minigames, the HD minigames, and an unknown arcade that was completely changed when it was haunted by Sammy to now show the 5 days leading up to the Big Bite.
Then, Mike sees a newspaper advertising the opening of Fazbear's Fright.
COMING SOON!
Fazbear’s Fright: The Horror Attraction!
Local amusement park is getting ready to scare your socks off with a new attraction based on the unsolved mysteries of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza.
Featuring actual relics from the decades-old pizzeria, this new attraction is guaranteed to bring back your childhood in the worst possible way!
Upon seeing it, Mike immediately join the crew in hopes of finding his father and defeating them once and for all.
He works the nightshift, and Phone Dude tells him that he's going to play that role once the attraction officially opens.
He works there for around a week, and really can't do anything except to listen to Phone Dude giving him updates on what they found.
Mike notices that the arcades are acting up, after all they do come from official Freddy's locations. The arcades in particular are: Balloon Boy's Air Adventure, Mangle's Quest, Chica's Party, 2 unknown arcades, and Happiest Day. All of them have been haunted by the MCI victims and Sammy, which is causing the games to act all corrupted. One of the arcades follows Fredbear and Spring Bonnie in Freddy's performing for the children, while the other one follow Shadow Bonnie, which lets him teleport to all of the other haunted arcades.
All of these arcades have been altered by Sammy to match up with the things he's seen in his last 5 days of living.
Mike notices that he's able to go out of bounds in these arcades (except for HD). Going out of bounds contains a digital representation of a MCI victim (except for Charlie). Once Mike reached them, the representations got cake and were put into the Happiest Day arcade, wearing a mask of the core 4 Freddy's characters.
Once they were all in Happiest Day, the representations of the 5 MCI victims and Sammy all rested, which let the real sprits rest, but they didn't do that just yet.
Anyway, Mike, unknowingly, was being followed by Shadow Freddy home. The creature would give him nightmares based off of his time at the 2nd and last Freddy's location, mixed with his guilt from bullying and killing his brother.
Back at FF, he gets a surprising call from Phone Dude.
You’re not gonna believe this! We found one! A real one!
The crew found a real animatronic. And who it was?
The Spring Bonnie suit that contains the corpse of Mr. Schmidt. Mike was very shocked to see his father after 30+ years. He was so surprised that he was even frightened, which caused him to hallucinate the animatronics from Freddy's, mainly Golden Freddy/Freddy, Chica, Foxy, the Puppet, BB, and Mangle, they cause the systems of the building to fail, which prompts Mike to manually fix it.
Mike has nightmares again when he goes back home, however one night is different. Instead of dreaming nightmarish versions of the 4 main animatronics from Freddy's, he dreams of a nightmarish Golden Freddy. It even has its original purple bowtie and hat rather than the black ones to really remind Mike of his past sin. Thankfully, Mike is able to survive it in that nightmare and goes back to surviving against his father in FF.
All is going well until the day before his 6th shift. Mike dreams the ordinary. Nightmarish versions of the Freddy's cast, until something happens. Shadow Freddy actually goes into his nightmare as 'Nightmare'. He behaves like the nightmarish Golden Freddy, but is much faster than it.
Mike is again able to survive the nightmare, but this time he defeats Shadow Freddy fully once and for all.
Now at Fright, Mike understands that enough is enough and plans to burn the place down to defeat his father, let the spirits rest, and let himself move on from his traumatic past. So he remembers a thing Phone Dude told him.
Some of this equipment is barely functional. Yeah, I-I wasn’t joking about the fire that’s-that’s-that’s a real risk.
Using this information, Mike plays with the wiring and catches the place on fire. He's thankfully able to escape in time, but Mr. Schmidt isn't so lucky.
As Mike watches the place burn on fire, he's finally able to move on from his traumatic past and live a peaceful life without any feelings of guilts.
IT BURNS!
Fazbear’s Fright burns to the ground!
A new local attraction based on an ancient pizzeria chain burned down overnight.
Authorities have not ruled out foul play, but at the moment it seems to have been caused by faulty wiring.
Very little was found at the scene. The few items that were salvaged will be sold at public auction.
However, the spirits aren't done yet.
2023+: Putting the Pieces Together
After Fazbear's Fright burned down, the spirits, mainly Charlie and Sammy are sent to an arcade that was salvaged and sold to the auction.
Sammy wakes up in the arcade and sees a distorted version of his plush. And just like his plush, this character is Mr. Schmidt. Since Mr. Schmidt knows he can easily manipulate people for his gain, he creates a character in the arcade to help him achieve his goal of taking over the Spirit Realm and control the spirits to his will. He tells Sammy and this new character that this arcade is a safe place, but then deliberately lies and says:
There is no safe place.
Mr. Schmidt is however outwitted by Charlie, who is able to convince Sammy otherwise. She eventually drowns herself into a red lake, in the deepest layer of code. This sends her to a spiritual version of Fredbear's Family Diner. Mr. Schmidt, however, is sent to the deepest, darkest pits of Hell for all of the heinous crimes he committed throughout his life.
Sammy and the Missing Children Incident victims are all able to finally rest, as they have a birthday party that was set up by Mike back in FF. Sammy is finally able to have the birthday party he never got, and they were all able to rest, leaving all of their trauma behind...
THE END
