fnaf timeline !!

  • Possible Henry and Afton start of partnership (no specific year)

    In one of the most recent books, one story reveals that a man was able to create and animatronic out of only wood. He later says that once he finds a buyer, he will be gone so soon he'll leave a dust trail behind. The man and Henry have many similarities, so perhaps this potential buyer may be William Afton, since multiple animatronics seem to be souless and wood-like throughout all the games (balloon boy, the little marionnettes in Sister Location...)
  • Missing children

    Five children get lured into the back of the restaurant by William Afton, in his Springbonnie suit. He hides their dead bodies into animatronic suits. At the end of that year, Freddy Fazbear Pizzaria closed due to people getting weirded out by these dissapearances. Chica AKA Susie is the first killed, based on one of her voicelines in FNAF custom night. The other kids are named Gabriel, Fritz, Jeremy and one mystery name, later discovered to be Cassidy by dpowerful1.
  • Circus Baby's opening

    After the closing of the first location, due to weird incidents, Afton is still looking for a place to murder the children. He opens Circus Baby's Pizza World. Elizabeth Afton, daughter of William, gets trapped into Baby's animatronic and the pizzaria closes on day one. That's why, in FNAF 4, Elizabeth's room is empty.
  • (FNAF 4)Closing of the first Freddy Fazbear's Pizza

    The first location of the pizzaria remains open until 1983 but closes before 1987, to open a new pizzaria, Jrs. Being a prime suspect in the case of the missing kids, Afton cannot enter the pizzaria. He kills Henry's daughter outside, and her soul possesses the Security Puppet, who then gives life back to the first animatronics, like in the SAVETHEM minigame. Afton sneaks in disguised as a security guard.
  • (First location) (The Bite of 83)Freddy Fazbear's family diner

    William works there as a technician while still using his suit to lure children. The crying child ( Afton's kid, Evan ) witnesses his friends and sister get killed. At his birthday, his brother Micheal pushes him into Freddy's mouth and he gets his skull crushed by the animatronic. At the end of FNAF 4, we get «i will piece you back together» to Evan, meaning someone (Afton, probably) promised to revive him, by making him a robot, explaining how he didn't die in Sister Location
  • KIlling of six children in Freddy Fazbear's Pizza

    As seen in the book « Into the pit », where Oswald travels back in time, six children were killed that year. These six children were lured to a back room by Afton in his Bonnie suit, again, and killled. This book finds a missing piece of the lore puzzle that game theorists have been searching for years; the second FNAF location. There is still a lot of awkward placements in this in the storyline, because there is missing ifnormation still about these killings
  • Afton's realization

    Afton, after the incident in 1987, realizes that the children's souls he killed have power, a power gret enough to possess animatronics. His mission changes: he wants to collect all that power to become immortal. In some FNAF 3 cutscenes, we see Afton lure the robots in a room only to dismantle them and eperiment on them: resulting in the Funtime animatronics. In Fouth closet, it's revealed that Afton created them from the remnants of the 5 first animatronics.
  • (FNAF 2)The Bite of 1987

    After Afton, disguised as a security guard, enters Jr's and starts killing once again, animatronics get angry and start attacking anyone disguised as a security guard. This leads to the Bite of '87, when Jeremy get his head bit by most probably Mangle, causing the animatronics to not be allowed to roam in the restaurant freely anymore. In this location, another five kids die as shown in SAVETHEM, before Jr's is shut down. (previous event)
  • The creation of Springtrap

    Afton did not consider one thing creating the Funtime animatronics; the spirits wanting their revenge. The spirits trapped Afton into a room, where he was forced to hide in the Golden Bonnie suit, which snap shuts, resulting in almost killing him; Springtrap is born. The safe room is then sealed.
  • Pizzaria simulator

    Jumping in time, at the year 2023, a new pizzaria opens. An employee discovers the sealed room and accidentally sets Springtrap free, who haunts the restaurant until it gets burned down.
  • Sister location

    While his father is trapped in a Bonnie suit, Micheal searches for him to get answers. He visits Sister Location and meets Baby, then the Funtime animatronics who now form Ennard who scoops his body. He does not die, for him being a robot, and continues to search for his father. At the end, Micheal becomes a literal Purple Guy while Ennard possesses his decaying corpse, which he then leaves once the body «dies». Once again, since he is a robot, he does not die, just continues his search.
  • Custom Night

    In the Custom Night game, MatPat believes that we are playing as Afton, trappped in a living nightmare. His own creations are hauting him, as deduced from various voicelines in the game, for eternity, for Golden Freddy AKA Cassidy (or/and Micheal?) AKA The one he should not have killed still wants their revenge; At some Game Over screens we can see her face appearing, and getting a perfect score in the Custom Night will show you Golden Freddy twitching, as Springtrap does in a trailer.
  • The end of the Remnant

    Finally getting to FNAF6! As we know, the puppet in the third game tried to free the sirits of the children, but it did not work, due to the fact that some of their soul was in the Funtime animatronics, now in the form of Molten Freddy, everyone apart from Baby. The plan of FNAF 6 is to get all the animatronics containing Remnant in the pizzaria to burn, so everything is gone and the souls can be set free. Henry summons them, burns the pizzaria and (almost) all remnant, condamning Afton to hell
  • The creation of Glitchtrap (FNAF HW)

    In Help Wanted, we play in a new location, made to cover up rumors about the previous locations: Fazbear Frights. It is canon that we play as Vanessa. When collecting all the tapes, a figure behind the player gets closer and closer; it is Glitchtrap. After the fire in FNAF6, Afton's soul left Springtrap and got itself into a computer's coding. The employee talking on the tapes tried to seperate the tapes so Glitchtrap doesn't get freed, but when Vanessa collects them all, he takes control of her
  • Survival Logbook P1 (no exact year)

    The FNAF Survival Logbook contains a lot of information about the story. It belonged to Mike, or Micheal Afton. It confirmed that this Mike is the same Mike who pushed Evan in the Bite of '83, who is the MC in FNAF4,. This was already suspected since you hear a flatline at the end of the game, the Nightmare animatronics may represent his death and it contains a hospital bed,so the logbook pretty much just confirms the theory.
  • Survival Logbook P2 (no exact year)

    Now, who is the MC in the other games?
    Micheal is the main character in FNAF1, since his name appears on the paycheck at the end of the game. The logbook's spirit asks about the Carousel, a ride only showed in FNAF2, so Evan might be the one we play as. A line in FNAF3 says « It's me, Micheal ». The spirit asks about a toy only showed in the bedroom of FNAF5, so once again Evan is the MC, and Micheal burns in FNAF6.
    Meaning the whole story is just two brother's story, Afton's sons.
  • Security Breach: Save Vanny ending

    In this ending, we are able to save Vanny AKA Vanessa from Glitchtrap's control. The final scene is on a hill, with Freddy's head and Vanny. A hill that is most probably the hill from the first kid's graves. In another theory, this would be a parallel to the Afton children, who all had their lives ended short: Micheal and Evan, and Vanessa representing Elizabeth, who has also green eyes and blonde hair.
  • Security Breach: The Pizzaplex

    A new location opens up in 2030, the Pizzaplex. In Security Breach, Bonnie is no longer present. One theory says Monty dissasembled him but its far from confirmed. The MC, Gregory, appears to be an homeless orphan living inside the Pizzaplex, explaining his lack of guest pass. Following MATPAT's thoery, Gregory might be the crying child, so a robot, explaining tho why he is so brutal. In the secret ending, where we go underground, we can see that the pizzaplex is built over the FNAF6 location
  • Security Breach: Secret ending

    In the secret ending, Gregory goes underground to see all the animatronics who should've burned in FNAF6 living, in the form of some new Molten Freddy with all the animatronics, along with Springtrap. This confirms that thr Pizzaplex was built over the FNAF6 location, but Henry's plan did not work as he planned. One character is missing: Micheal. He should've burned with his family during the fire, unless he has taken a new form: Glamrock Freddy. Multiple voicelines can support this theory.
  • Security Breach: Fire ending

    During the fire ending, Glamrock Freddy is ready to burn the place down, quite like Micheal did. Furthermore, there is a replica of his room hidden in the Pizzaplex, containing a secret message all connected to Micheal. The theory that Micheal is Glamrock Freddy and Gregory is Evan would explian why Freddy is the only one helping his brother, and would complete their tragic brothers arc. After killing Evan, Micheal tried to make amends, and his final amend is to save his brother.
