An (Almost) Complete Timeline of the Five Nights At Freddy’s Lore. Part Three.

Hello everyone, and welcome back to my blog! Last time we left off on a bit of a cliffhanger. I like to keep you guys interested. So, we’re going to continue the story today after we left off with William Afton finding his next target in the daughter of Henry Emily, Charlotte.

1984: After William decided who was next, he decided how to orchestrate his actions. As I mentioned in my last blog, The puppet/ Marionette is the sole security bot for Charlotte. William knew this and started trying to figure out a way around this. He soon found out that the puppet is dependent on the box it inhabits being open for when it needs to leave to protect Charlotte, so William figured he could put something on top of it to keep the lid closed. After crafting his plan, he put it in motion the next day. He disguised himself and placed a heavy box on top of the puppet’s box. Coincidentally, Charlotte was also trapped outside of the Pizzeria. This was when William would strike, killing charlotte in the alleyway outside of Freddy’s in the rain. He simply leaves afterward. The puppet had been trying to get out of the box this whole time, but when it finally knocked the lid off, it was too late. The puppet found Charlotte, but the heavy rain broke it down quickly. Seeing that its mission had failed, the puppet rested by Charlotte’s body.

1984: After a wonderful high, William was desperate for another, and his eyes were set on the new Pizzeria with the toy animatronics. He figured out a way to get into the place without the alarms setting off; the spring bonnie suit. In that suit, he recreated his first massacre with another five children in this restaurant. Just like the other five children, these most recent ones were given a second chance by being able to possess the new toy animatronics. This is why all the Toy animatronics in FNAF 2 want to get into your office so bad. They want to see if it’s William becoming the nightguard. They want to take their own revenge.

1987: THE BITE OF 87′. You’ve all been waiting for this one. If you’re familiar with the games, you know that in the second FNAF game, there is an animatronic dubbed ‘Mangle.’ This name was given to the animatronic due to its mangled state. The children that often visited the pizzeria weren’t the best at keeping things nice, and every day they would come and tear Mangle to shreds. Eventually, the workers just stopped repairing them. This angered Mangle and the other animatronics. One day, Mangle had been pushed to the breaking point of getting torn up every day and bit down on one of the children’s heads, damaging the frontal lobe seriously. After this incident, all toy animatronics were now scraped due to these “malfunctions.”

1988: After the closing of the previous restaurant, Henry was contacted to create a new restaurant with all new animatronics. He took on the job, but only if he could create the animatronics himself so no other mishaps like William’s could occur. This is where the FNAF 1 animatronics come in. While this is happening, the Afton family is having a tiny itty bitty issue at home. William’s wife is very distraught over the events, trying to force Michael to go with William because she hated them both… but then, she stopped talking. William stabbed her in the stomach, eventually killing her. There are some THEORIES about what happens to Mrs. Afton’s spirit. Some people believe she goes on to possess ballora because of the Afton family dinner scene in the new FNAF game, and some believe that she rests. Either way, she’s dead.

 

That’s all for this week everyone! Thanks for reading and I will see you next time!
