Description With the release of FNAF4, and its enormous influx of theories, ideas, story elements, easter eggs and the like, as well as the introduction of the Child, I had taken to absorbing as much as I could about the titles and the series now.

This image is therefore a sort of branch off the Fazbear Family Tree , pertaining more to my own head canon than anything else.

Fanon/Spoilers Ahead!

My interpretations of Mike, Jeremy, and The Child, I've come to notice, do mesh very well with the proverbial three wise monkeys, though in a very tragic manner, and it something I only came to realise with the last game. So, I'll indulge you in my headcanon, if you'll let me.

Mike Schmidt, our Security Guard #1, an American male with German ancestry, was forced to work at Freddy Fazbear's by his poverty and a lack of well-paying day jobs, or for that matter, night jobs. He is a mute, and therefore is incapable of properly describing the terrors he faced during his week at the Pizzeria to anyone who would even listen. Unable to share his story, or be believed, he falls into depression and insanity by the hallucinations and noises that still haunt his mind. He would then go on to spend the rest of his life in a mental asylum. Therefore, his inability to speak of the evil was his major downfall.

Jeremy Fitzgerald, our Security Guard #2, a Canadian-American male with French ancestry, was either much more of a badass/even more of a pants-wetting sissy than Mike as he's had to deal with more than twice the number of murderous animatronics then Mike, way more stress from security management, and being a possible observer/victim of the Bite of '87. With all of this, the torment of the Puppet got to him the most, to the point where his mind interprets any and all quiet atmosphere as being unnervingly tense, and childish music to be a harbinger of his death. Unable to relax, and even function appropriately in social environments without mind-bending stress, thanks to the auditory stimuli he endured, he succumbs to a young death.

The Child, protagonist of FNAF4, was a young American boy who grew up during the heyday of Freddy Fazbear's and had to put up with the horrible antics of his older brother and his friends. Being the complete douchenozzle that he is, his brother drove the child to tears daily with his jumpscares and improper care, forcing the kid to make friends with the dolls of the creepy animatronics he hates so much. He is of course then hurt when his brother places his head in Fredbear's mouth and it chomps on his head, sending him to the hospital in critical condition, and then falling into a coma. In his purgatory, he sees nightmarish versions of the animatronics that both scared and scarred him so much in life, before succumbing to his inevitable death, flat-lining on his hospital bed at the horrible sights he had to witness, trapped in his own mind.

Jesus... that was dark... but so is the FNAF universe, so enjoy the cutesy designs to take your mind off of it...

I bet you're wondering where the Security Guard from FNAF3 is, well they had an fun time avoiding Springtrap before Fazbear Frights burned down, but had no lasting impact on anything with the story and was only the Purple Man's plaything for a few days.

Seriously, that's all I got! He doesn't have a name, doesn't impact FNAF lore, and he lived... pffft. Boring!

You could make the argument that FNAF3 Guard would fit the 'See No Evil' a bit better, with their hallucinations, but I couldn't find anything interesting to say, and beside The Child is literally stuck in his own mind. That's the hallucinatory Holy Grail if you ask me.

Just thought I'd let you guys know what my headcanon was. Do you have one? Is it different from mine? Let me know, I'm interested. Also, if your headcanon in any way involves anyone of the protagonists in some kind of romantic relationship with another protagonist or animatronic, I don't want to hear it. That's just dumb.

I'm sorry. Your feels didn't deserve that kind of treatment. Would you like a coupon to a Feels Massage Clinic? I know the best one in town.

You know I'd feel I'd should comment on this. I've seen this before and I'd should honestly say this is quite well done. Including what you wrote for them. Just seriously great job man. Also yes...for some reason that comment and the idea of Jeremy looking a bit like Shaggy is funny heh.

But seriously nice job.

Still don't understand why people think Mike is the killer.The theory contradicts itself completely.Don't need to go in depth,You should already understand this concept.

Yeah, I never understood that either. But given the 'evidence' for it, that actually manages to go pretty far, you can see why it's hard to just let it go, even if it really makes no sense canonically.

Woah. I never thought I'd meet someone on the internet who hasn't heard about it. I'm honored that I get to explain it to you.

Five Nights at Freddy's, also known as FNAF, is a series of point-and-click horror games created by Scott Cawthon, a previously very unknown game developer. They 'blew up' in terms of popularity after Let's Players on Youtube, namely Markiplier and Pewdiepie, posted videos of their reactions to the gameplay. They were made famous for their unique gameplay, terrifying atmosphere and interesting backstory. Also jumpscares. Lots and lots of jumpscares.

Personally, I play them to learn about the story, which Scott has so craftily hidden in the games through Easter Eggs and cutscenes. To this day, no-one has fully pieced together a widely accepted and complete story for FNAF.

It's been the fastest growing game series on Steam, with all of its four games being released in under a year. They're extremely fun and horrifying, and you can buy them for cheap on Steam or Desura. Just be ready to be frightened.

If you want, here's a link to a FNAF Wiki with loads of information about the games: freddy-fazbears-pizza.wikia.co…

Thank you so much for all this explaination. I will definitely take a look at it.
That said I have a very terrible relation to all things horrific, I am very sensitive. After watching The Fly, I swore to myself to never ever again look at horror things.
It does't help the painting you made of it sounds honestly very tempting and intriguing. Especially in the way the author has designed a plot to be like a hidden puzzle.
2 words. Cornelian dilemma.
