A video I would recommend that consolidates the timeline into a pretty understandable way is Hyper Droid. He has a recent one called Five Nights at Freddy's: FULL Timeline 2022 that I think would help Mike understand it a bit more. It goes in chornological order and doesn't skip around as much. However, if you don't want Security Breach or FNAF VR spoilers please wait till you finish or Mike finishes the games. It will be spoiled information you don't know about.
like sure some things in the videos are slightly outdated like the missing kids timeline but this technically is the closest thing we have to a proper fnaf timeline
I think people does that because people know about the lore and always get triggered that people don't know it. Although they know they no nothing about it so of course they don't know the lore, so their brain is pretty much controlling them to get angry at the people who getting the lore wrong. I mean, to be honest, I do that too...but I didn't attack him! I promise!
It's human nature. When you know the lore of something and someone gets it completely wrong, your brain screams at you to correct them. It can't be helped.
FNAF has such an expanded universe with the first book series, separate book series, VR game, AR game, actual games, spinoff games that I wouldn't be surprised if we had some MCU Infinity War level crossover later in the series. With how much William Afton survives, we might need a good ol' Thanos Snap to finally get rid of him.

@@gameuniverse5973 that is true now that I think about it. Worse yet. Vanny was only the first person he took under his influence(that we know of), with that game, it could very easily lead to several other people filling his role regardless of what you do. Because he's now digital. Meaning he can adapt and grow stronger than just sitting in a single game given the right circumstances

FNAF is an entire bond of Community and Passionate detective eager to know the beginning and end of the story. Play Security Breach Mike!! It has more lore to open,I will not spoil you.. And It's the far most amazing Game in the entire franchise!*
Thank god for this video honestly because the fnaf lore can be really confusing and I can relate to Mike from when I first got into fnaf - I wish the video existed when I was getting into fnaf because it would've been a lot less confusing for my small child brain
SuperHorrorBro's fnaf stuff makes it way earier to understand. I probs sound like a walking advertisement at this point, but I'm serious, this dude is rarely ever talked about when it comes to Fnaf lore, but it's the most cohesive and easy to understand explanations I've ever seen.
"I always thought FNaF was something really stupid." Yeah, that's basically how I felt about it during its initial popularity when the first 4 games came out. After watching Mark play them because I decided to see what the hype was about, I actually ended up really enjoying the games.
Same although my love for the series came from seeing a Game theory about it. I think the first one I saw was the FNAF Dream Theory so definitely not a great way to start lol but I still got hooked
Just a warning for Security Breach: The optimization is pretty bad and there's a lot of lag and glitches because of the devs cutting corners to meet the deadline.
If were lucky a bug fix or two will come out before then, idk how long help wanted is gonna take since it takes a pretty long time to do everything, if he plans on finding all the tapes at least
@@nostalgiaboy6240 Oh rip. That’s weird though because I was completely fine playing through security breach up until the end when the fire escape ending was somehow bugged out.
Not surprised about not knowing Henry or Charlotte (also known as Charlie). They aren’t really named outside the books and you can’t rely on the books either since it’s a different timeline. A shame really since book universe Charlie is one of my favorite FNAF protagonists.
I am once again suggesting you to watch Hyper Droid’s video. It puts everything together in chronological order as well as making the lore easy to understand.
I’d already watched and then re-listened to Ferret’s video! It was genuinely great nice to see someone who had so little idea about the lore react to a bunch of it!!
Despite the video getting most of the information right, do not take everything as truth, since about 90% of the canon lore is actually more of speculation. There is something I would like to add, however: my own spectulation, to perhaps give you another perspective to look at for Help Wanted and Security Breach. Note: I really don't want to start any crazy discourse about the lore, so please just take this as my opinion. Nothing can be completely confirmed without the creator himself confirming it, via the games, secrets, or just regular twitter posts. Now, they mentioned that Cassidy is the second soul possessing Golden Freddy, all of which is right. However, I don't entirely agree with the idea that Cassidy is the sole reason for Afton coming back. Because if Cassidy truly just wanted revenge, why would Cassidy bring him back just for him to continue his killings through a vessel/cult? This is where my theory comes in! From the information provided by the Fazbear Frights series, we have the concept of remnant introduced. This is what I think William ultimately wanted to obtain during all of these killings, giving him motive rather than just spontaneous homicide. Using remnant, the concept of souls/emotion haunting objects/robots, William was hoping to achieve immortality, for himself and perhaps for his dead children, as well. This is why he wanted Michael to find Elizabeth, the girl that now possesses Circus Baby. The souls of the children haunting the animatronics is proof of remnant working, and because William never seems to die off, William is proof of immortality existing. Now, this next part will contain spoilers for Help Wanted, so I highly recommend playing that before continuing. Now, the fire in Pizzeria Simulator shows that the souls have been freed. *However,* this does not mean that William Afton is completely gone. By some god foresaken miracle, William's memories were preserved in codings and files digitally, which were later used in the Help Wanted game by mistake. This causes "The Anomaly" to appear, commonly known as "Glitchtrap" or "Malhare." Because of this, William's memories have created a new entity housing these memories, along with William's miserable hobby of killing. This, from my assumptions, is why Glitchtrap is so desperate to find a vessel or host in the human world, to escape his digital prison and continue to create a maddening surge of murders in Fazbear's name. If you actually managed to read all of this, thanks! Feel free to share your opinions in the reply section, as I have nothing to do other than read the comments of youtube videos. Have a great day.
Just to let you know you basically came into the same conclusion that the vid came to and misunderstood what was said as something else. You thought they said cassidy brought him back as glitchtrap for revenge when they were talking specifically about UCN and even say that there are 2 aftons, the one being tortured by cassidy in some sort of purgatory and the glitchtrap who is seperate from that.
I never got into playing FNAF but the lore is so fascinating. I also really enjoyed watching Foot of a Ferret's video previously and am happy Bijuu Mike reacted to it.
17:30 he actually enters the suit to scare the spirits because it is the last thing they saw before dying. And he is not just staying there but he is laughing a little at his "success" before the spring lock snaps.
You should definitely watch the 2022 timeline because it is more accurate, it does have Security Breach lore though so play the all the games for no spoilers but it even makes more sense with that timeline (it is an hour or so, so maybe watch it on your own time)
Glad to see him react to Ferret’s video. It was a nice video. I hope in his own time he can watch that 2022 timeline video-even if it does use headcanons to fill in the blanks.
A couple things to point out in the video, the first couple of games happened in the series BEFORE sister location took place, and the names of both protagonists were not only different then “mike afton” but the fnaf 2 protagonist (Jeremy) was the victim of the bite of 87 after being moved to the day shift, which is stated in game that the player (Jeremy) would be moving to day shift. so mike afton couldn’t have been the protagonist in those. 2nd, Fazbear entertainment didn’t make the vr experience because of a game developer making games on the corporation, they made it based on rumors about their establishments. They did it for the same reasons though, to poke fun and discredit the rumors with a light hearted scary vr game poking fun at themselves.
I see where you're coming from, but the entire theory of Michael being the nightguards is the fake names. Aside from Jeremy, the other nightguards are the ones who are theorised to be Michael under different names. Sister location could have taken place before Fnaf 1, who knows.
I mean, aside from the video getting some explanations wrong Like William's motivation for killing, it wasn't just some random thing he picked up, it was a way for him to essentially become immortal.(Which he kinda did..) And then there were other small things explained with few mistakes, but other than that and how they skipped the 4th game it's pretty accurate
I don't find you dumb while playing this, mostly because I'm also 8 years late or something to this fandom, my sister was really into this and I was really into batim, her seeing me look at the fandom and watch a couple game plays, she had walked up to me and told me I wasn't allowed to be in the fandom. Just to clarify, my sister is basically very psychopathic, she makes mentions of gore, murdering me in the middle of the night, and has even left a knife in my little brothers bed once, she isn't very nice, so I was okay with what she told me and have sadly waited this long for a chance to get into the fandom, and she has now finally seemed to lose interest in it, I'm still going big on the Batim fandom, but knowing that you are also late to the Fnaf fandom brighten my month. I ended up positive for covid this week, feeling better now, but you really brightened my whole week, being sick and watching and waiting for the next fnaf video was the highlight of this week for me, I hope you continue this and keep playing the games, I have told myself I'm going to wait for you to get to the security breach and play through the whole thing and not get spoilers from any other youtuber, I just really enjoy your content and that their someone else who hasn't gotten into the fandom, so I can go into a video knowing that the person has no idea whats going on just like me, it's like a new TV series, you don't know whats going to happen, sorry if this is a long paragraph, I just really wanted to share. -Shadow
13:30 spring Bonnie ( this was before William Afton got spring locked no pup intended ) didn’t always look like that it used to be called spring Bonnie hence what I just said before William Afton got spring locked and rotted away in the safe room for 30 years
Bijuu is finally finding out everything he needs to know about FNaF, I'm so proud of him (But there's no shame in not knowing the lore and just enjoying the games!)
Also something I heavily disagree on is the timeline of the bite of 83 and Charlotte's death. The marionette/puppet came AFTER FredBear's family diner, and the bite of 83 happened because of Fredbear and the springlock issues likely, and the springlock design was never used again. The puppet came during FNAF 2, which replaced all the original fnaf animatronics. So I feel Afton's youngest son getting killed is what started the killing spree, blaming the animatronics that he and Henry built together, and so killing Henry's daughter. Imo that makes way more sense. Then after that he just realized he loved killing kids, and also the whole deal with remnant and spirits. *SUPERHORRORBRO* explained this. His theories are probably the best and easiest to understand imo, PLEASE PAY MORE ATTENTION TO HIM. Matpat is great and everything....but his theories are kinda all over the place and change a lot. So bite of 83, Charlie's death, Fnaf 2, Afton gets a taste for killing and kills the 5 kids who possess the Fnaf 1 animatronics, bite of 87, Fnaf 1, Afton really likes killing kids and understands remnant better and creates the animatronics in Sister location to kidnap children, Elizabeth really likes Circus Baby and Afton says to stay away from it, but she gets too close and gets captured and dies by Baby, Then Sister location.
I saw this other timeline video which goes Elizabeth's death -> Charlotte's death -> bite of 83 It's kinda amusing how fnaf theories know all the events but can't agree on what order they happen in. Guess we'll never know until Scott himself tells us
When I was in 6th grade, my school once went to a restaurant (on a field trip) that had an arcade with singing animatronics. All of the kids were like “wooo are we at FNAF???” They were only joking but freaked some of the younger kids out. There were no signs (not that I remember I could be totally wrong tho) on the stage that the animatronics were standing on that said “please stay away from animatronics” so when one of the dare devils tried jumping up on stage suspiciously, one of the workers said “Wait! You can’t go near those for safety laws.” Guys I know there probably wasn’t anything suspicious, I just kinda thought this went with the theme. I thought it would be kind of cool to just insert this little spoopy story just for fun :)
Let me tell you that Glitchtrap is actually just Afton coming back again, it's not a replicate of Afton's consciousness. MatPat actually mentioned this in his own series, that in the book series, which is actually a different universe from the game, William Afton, after the events of Pizzeria Simulator, was kept alive by a spirit named Andrew. You can clearly see this parallels with Ultimate Custom Night where Afton was kept alive by Cassidy to relive his horrors again and again. So he never died from the fire. The fire wasn't even enough to burn the whole place down. Now, when the VR game was made, Fazbear Entertainment actually scanned hard drives of old animatronics, Springtrap's almost collapsing suit being one of them. Now this, leads to the transference of both William's AND Cassidy's consciousness to the game. William takes the form of Glitchtrap, and Cassidy as the golden princess we're playing as in the Princess Quest minigame (minigames with the addition of sequels in Security Breach). Now, after Vanny's taken control by Afton, he said to Cassidy that it will "let me out", leaving Cassidy to be trapped in the game. There is a Security Breach ending that involves playing Princess Quest minigames, but I won't tell you any of that just in case you actually want to play it by yourself.
I think the reason Afton put the suit back on when cornered was to retraumatise the children and make them remember what happened to them so he could feel some sort of control again
After you have completed Fnaf: Security Breach you should watch Fnaf Timeline video, It's almost 1hour long but it is okay cuz that video explains every single detail even the secret voice lines so I think it's extremely useful for you, I think.
I think this theory/explanation video was awesome, BUUUT- it is a tad outdated as others have mentioned, so some stuff is confusing, off, or just wrong all together lol. And a lot more stuff you really NEED to know about the story, including things you missed (like baby's story on night 3 of sister location) wasn't even brought up here. Ik it was kinda a general summary, just a lil pet peeve that so much of the story was overlooked. Mangle wasn't even brought up and she did the bite of 83 😭
I'm glad that mike took the time to read the comments telling him to take a look at mattpat's vids, I wonder if he read mine 👀 (EDIT: IK THAT THIS ISNT MATTPAT'S VID I JUST WANT LIKES SHHH)
I really loved your fnaf - videos and loved watching you play!!! And no one should expect you to figure out years and years of lore in such a short span of time - still, really cool that you reacted to this video too!!
There is a better lore explanation video but its includes the games u haven't played so its spoiler heavy and the vid is like and hour or so, u should watch that one later when ur done with them all
At 17:21 when matpat is confused at why afton went into his suit it's probably because the dead children are scared of the springlock suit (the suit that killed them) so afton in hopes of scaring the children away wears it and it backfires on him.
Imagine waking up one day thinking: a game about animatronics hunting you would be good with the lore as a guy who kills children and stuffs them along with getting scooped and somebody getting bitten :)
There’s a great video by Hyper Droid that is more updated and includes the new games, might be easier to understand might not be, you should do a reaction vid on it, it’s the 2022 full updated timeline
I came to comment this! In fact I will just to add to it. But yeah, I love his video a lot more. A lot more info and a lot easier to understand. Plus, the writing is movie quality the way he presents it! Great video
According to the game Dayshift At Freddy’s the box is supposedly to be filled with items of the missing children I.E a hat or a scarf. But idk if this is canon but I just wanted to say that. Also if you decide to play DAF please know that it has a lot of inappropriate stuff.
After you are done with security breach you should watch hyper deriod's video where he basically explains in deep detail about the fnaf lore from fnaf 1-security breach. Legit can't believe its been over 7 years since it came out and we still have so friggin many questions...
I used to think FNAF was stupid too lol I never liked it but then I watched Razz's videos of FNAF and FNAF memes. I loved it and then got into Markiplier's playthroughs! Glad to see another one of my favorite RUclipsrs getting into FNAF
Um well you see Circus Baby (Elizabeth) didn't know that the Nightguard was her brother because it's been years since she's seen him and also Mikey (Michael) changed his style to look a little like his Father Mr. Afton and also the Hand unit did think Michael put his name as kinda like the main main name Eggs Benedict and since Ennard lives inside him now Ennard still calls Michael Eggs Benedict and Michael hates being called Eggs Benedict because that's not his original name but it's a name that the Hand Unit kinda like made up that's all I'm going to say for now probably so bye for now
None of the animatronics knew about Michael being Michael at all. I mean, why would they chase down and attack a guy who was on THEIR side and wanted to finish off THEIR murderer? Ever since the children's souls possessed the corresponding animatronics, they had trouble telling adults apart. They never wished to hurt anyone, they just wanted to make their killer, William, suffer. Problem with that: They can't tell who actually is William and who isn't. William couldn't be a child, so they never attacked children, but adults- They thought every adult they saw was their killer. That's the reason they attack you as Michael. Michael confirms this when speaking to Springtrap in Sister Location. "They didn't recognize me at first, but then they thought i was you."
Don't worry, you probably never played the other games, I'm sure the others are angry for nothing because you said the wrong versions of the stories in the other videos but how could you know the story correctly, it's hard to know the complete story of fnaf, also be careful on security breach there are a lot of bugs, on the other hand you could even speedrun on it thanks to the glitch, I'd love it so much after you finish security breach, you'll try to speedrun the game, I hope you'll be able to do all the endings :) Especially the afton ending Like my comm so he can see
13:28 You have to remember that's after a long time of decay alongside a human body before that it was probably a adorable, Brightly colored bunny suit, which I'm pretty sure a child would be very willing to follow.
Golden Freddy has not been explained, Scott himself straight up does not know what it is. But some people say it's possessed by a girl named Cassidy. Also Golden Freddy is NOT FredBear
Golden Freddy does have lore tied to him. For ex: the 5th child that appears in a Fnaf 2 mini right before his jumpscare, a short cut scene appears of him when you beat 50/20 in UCN. The books mention Golden Freddy. And many other things are in reference to him. At first Golden Freddy was just a fun easter egg, but now he's becoming more integrated into the lore.
Even though that video is outdated and the story being told is wrong it is a great place for people to know the lore but I recommend reading other information because it's not 100% correct
Lmbo “I used to think FNAF was something stupid…” Me too. My little sister was super into it a couple years back and I thought it was so unappealing up until recently. Literally, starting this week, suddenly it’s my new favorite thing. It’s just… the loooooooooooooooooooooooooore
When he brought out a picture of springtrap and said, 'What's so funny is the fact that, honestly, you tell me what kid would see this, and want to go near it.' I almost cried laughing

17:30 he actually enters the suit to scare the spirits because it is the last thing they saw before dying. And he is not just staying there but he is laughing a little at his "success" before the spring lock snaps.
The scaring them part isn't confirmed but the laughing part is correct
You should definitely watch the 2022 timeline because it is more accurate, it does have Security Breach lore though so play the all the games for no spoilers but it even makes more sense with that timeline (it is an hour or so, so maybe watch it on your own time)
Thank you for always making my day better Mike!
Glad to see him react to Ferret’s video. It was a nice video. I hope in his own time he can watch that 2022 timeline video-even if it does use headcanons to fill in the blanks.
You should play dayshift at Freddy's, it’s not canon but it’s a fun ride/game to play when you're done.
A couple things to point out in the video, the first couple of games happened in the series BEFORE sister location took place, and the names of both protagonists were not only different then “mike afton” but the fnaf 2 protagonist (Jeremy) was the victim of the bite of 87 after being moved to the day shift, which is stated in game that the player (Jeremy) would be moving to day shift. so mike afton couldn’t have been the protagonist in those.
2nd, Fazbear entertainment didn’t make the vr experience because of a game developer making games on the corporation, they made it based on rumors about their establishments. They did it for the same reasons though, to poke fun and discredit the rumors with a light hearted scary vr game poking fun at themselves.
I see where you're coming from, but the entire theory of Michael being the nightguards is the fake names. Aside from Jeremy, the other nightguards are the ones who are theorised to be Michael under different names. Sister location could have taken place before Fnaf 1, who knows.
To answer your question Mike, Afton is alive inside the suit due to remnant, which is basically concentrated soul.
or cassidy keeping him alive for spite
Or him living his word "i am always comeback..."
I mean, aside from the video getting some explanations wrong
Like William's motivation for killing, it wasn't just some random thing he picked up, it was a way for him to essentially become immortal.(Which he kinda did..)
And then there were other small things explained with few mistakes, but other than that and how they skipped the 4th game it's pretty accurate
I've never watched this video before, but it was actually really useful to put everything together
I don't find you dumb while playing this, mostly because I'm also 8 years late or something to this fandom, my sister was really into this and I was really into batim, her seeing me look at the fandom and watch a couple game plays, she had walked up to me and told me I wasn't allowed to be in the fandom.
Just to clarify, my sister is basically very psychopathic, she makes mentions of gore, murdering me in the middle of the night, and has even left a knife in my little brothers bed once, she isn't very nice, so I was okay with what she told me and have sadly waited this long for a chance to get into the fandom, and she has now finally seemed to lose interest in it, I'm still going big on the Batim fandom, but knowing that you are also late to the Fnaf fandom brighten my month.
I ended up positive for covid this week, feeling better now, but you really brightened my whole week, being sick and watching and waiting for the next fnaf video was the highlight of this week for me, I hope you continue this and keep playing the games, I have told myself I'm going to wait for you to get to the security breach and play through the whole thing and not get spoilers from any other youtuber, I just really enjoy your content and that their someone else who hasn't gotten into the fandom, so I can go into a video knowing that the person has no idea whats going on just like me, it's like a new TV series, you don't know whats going to happen, sorry if this is a long paragraph, I just really wanted to share.
-Shadow
what? your sister doesn't control your actions, i would have immediately shut her down if i was you. glad to see you in the fandom though! ^^
I am happy that u're interrested in the lore and not just skipping trough everything
Talladega Shaggy.
Yes-
Zephyrus Shaggy
Also yes
You should watch the full timeline by Hyper Droid, it can clear up your confusion a little more
Absolutely! Very informative
13:30 spring Bonnie ( this was before William Afton got spring locked no pup intended ) didn’t always look like that it used to be called spring Bonnie hence what I just said before William Afton got spring locked and rotted away in the safe room for 30 years
It took me 5 years to realize why the 5th game is called “Sister Location”
Bijuu is finally finding out everything he needs to know about FNaF, I'm so proud of him
(But there's no shame in not knowing the lore and just enjoying the games!)
THIS!
@@Euphoria7777 ?
@@tg6404 they're agreeing with your comment
Also something I heavily disagree on is the timeline of the bite of 83 and Charlotte's death. The marionette/puppet came AFTER FredBear's family diner, and the bite of 83 happened because of Fredbear and the springlock issues likely, and the springlock design was never used again. The puppet came during FNAF 2, which replaced all the original fnaf animatronics. So I feel Afton's youngest son getting killed is what started the killing spree, blaming the animatronics that he and Henry built together, and so killing Henry's daughter. Imo that makes way more sense. Then after that he just realized he loved killing kids, and also the whole deal with remnant and spirits. *SUPERHORRORBRO* explained this. His theories are probably the best and easiest to understand imo, PLEASE PAY MORE ATTENTION TO HIM. Matpat is great and everything....but his theories are kinda all over the place and change a lot. So bite of 83, Charlie's death, Fnaf 2, Afton gets a taste for killing and kills the 5 kids who possess the Fnaf 1 animatronics, bite of 87, Fnaf 1, Afton really likes killing kids and understands remnant better and creates the animatronics in Sister location to kidnap children, Elizabeth really likes Circus Baby and Afton says to stay away from it, but she gets too close and gets captured and dies by Baby, Then Sister location.
Nobody is 100% correct. That's why they're called theories. People just have different ideas of what goes where and what happens when.
@@elijahsmall5873 I'm aware, hence me saying I disagree. I myself am stating my theories.
@@Chiller-pc1dv alright
ok
I saw this other timeline video which goes Elizabeth's death -> Charlotte's death -> bite of 83
It's kinda amusing how fnaf theories know all the events but can't agree on what order they happen in. Guess we'll never know until Scott himself tells us
I mean, this time it's kind of better because it's easy for you to understand the lord because you don't need to play the game to know the FNAF lord
lord? you mean lore?
@@latashabussey9909 nah he's tryna understand god
@@5Chr5ome5 yup
When I was in 6th grade, my school once went to a restaurant (on a field trip) that had an arcade with singing animatronics. All of the kids were like “wooo are we at FNAF???” They were only joking but freaked some of the younger kids out. There were no signs (not that I remember I could be totally wrong tho) on the stage that the animatronics were standing on that said “please stay away from animatronics” so when one of the dare devils tried jumping up on stage suspiciously, one of the workers said “Wait! You can’t go near those for safety laws.”
Guys I know there probably wasn’t anything suspicious, I just kinda thought this went with the theme. I thought it would be kind of cool to just insert this little spoopy story just for fun :)
"there is gonna be a fnaf movie"
*Bijuu we've been waiting for the fnaf movie since forever ago*
At one point on FNaF 4, in The Crying Child's room, you can see that his Foxy plushie has no head because his brother is wearing it.
Let me tell you that Glitchtrap is actually just Afton coming back again, it's not a replicate of Afton's consciousness.
MatPat actually mentioned this in his own series, that in the book series, which is actually a different universe from the game, William Afton, after the events of Pizzeria Simulator, was kept alive by a spirit named Andrew. You can clearly see this parallels with Ultimate Custom Night where Afton was kept alive by Cassidy to relive his horrors again and again. So he never died from the fire. The fire wasn't even enough to burn the whole place down.
Now, when the VR game was made, Fazbear Entertainment actually scanned hard drives of old animatronics, Springtrap's almost collapsing suit being one of them. Now this, leads to the transference of both William's AND Cassidy's consciousness to the game. William takes the form of Glitchtrap, and Cassidy as the golden princess we're playing as in the Princess Quest minigame (minigames with the addition of sequels in Security Breach). Now, after Vanny's taken control by Afton, he said to Cassidy that it will "let me out", leaving Cassidy to be trapped in the game. There is a Security Breach ending that involves playing Princess Quest minigames, but I won't tell you any of that just in case you actually want to play it by yourself.
I think the reason Afton put the suit back on when cornered was to retraumatise the children and make them remember what happened to them so he could feel some sort of control again
I would recommend the video made by hyper droid it’s a long one but very informative on fnaf lore
As a guy who doesn't know anything about FNAF, I needed this. And now I need therapy for my nightmares. Win-Win
After you have completed Fnaf: Security Breach you should watch Fnaf Timeline video, It's almost 1hour long but it is okay cuz that video explains every single detail even the secret voice lines so I think it's extremely useful for you, I think.
By Hyper droid?? If so, I second this too
I think this theory/explanation video was awesome, BUUUT- it is a tad outdated as others have mentioned, so some stuff is confusing, off, or just wrong all together lol. And a lot more stuff you really NEED to know about the story, including things you missed (like baby's story on night 3 of sister location) wasn't even brought up here. Ik it was kinda a general summary, just a lil pet peeve that so much of the story was overlooked. Mangle wasn't even brought up and she did the bite of 83 😭
I thought it was the bite of 87
@@Idonthaveanameanymore it was the bite of 87, Mangle wasn't even there in 83

I'm glad that mike took the time to read the comments telling him to take a look at mattpat's vids, I wonder if he read mine 👀

Same here lol
That wasn't MatPat's vid tho.
@@elijahsmall5873 shhhh.. I want likes
@@supernovaSGM lol
I really loved your fnaf - videos and loved watching you play!!! And no one should expect you to figure out years and years of lore in such a short span of time - still, really cool that you reacted to this video too!!
There is a better lore explanation video but its includes the games u haven't played so its spoiler heavy and the vid is like and hour or so, u should watch that one later when ur done with them all
I’ve seen it! It’s like an hour 30 mins innit?
@@charlierogers5178 something like that yea
@@_deadinside_ yea it’s by hyper droid I think
At 17:21 when matpat is confused at why afton went into his suit it's probably because the dead children are scared of the springlock suit (the suit that killed them) so afton in hopes of scaring the children away wears it and it backfires on him.
honestly i'd recommend Hyperdroid's video for fnaf's full story
Same!
Mike making mistakes about the lore while literally watching a video about the lore is my favorite thing
watch hyper droids fnaf lore timeline after u do help wanted and security breach, a bit of stuff in the vid u reacted to is outdated
Mike in the intro: "There's a fire!"
Me: "A fire? *A* fire? Ignorance is bliss..."
When you finish the whole thing, you should check out Hyperdroid’s video. It goes deeper into detail
@@chainsaw8507 he doesn’t have to react to it he could watch it own his own or just cut out some parts if he does react to it
@Omori be Feeling I think the timeline video is made up of smaller videos so ig he could watch in parts if he wants to
Imagine waking up one day thinking: a game about animatronics hunting you would be good with the lore as a guy who kills children and stuffs them along with getting scooped and somebody getting bitten :)
There’s a great video by Hyper Droid that is more updated and includes the new games, might be easier to understand might not be, you should do a reaction vid on it, it’s the 2022 full updated timeline
I second this!
At the end,
Afton always comes back
Junko always comes back
best way to put it
You should REALLY REALLY REALLY watch Five Nights at Freddy's: FULL Timeline 2022
(FNAF Complete Story) + AR/VR/Security Breach by Hyper Droid
I came to comment this! In fact I will just to add to it. But yeah, I love his video a lot more. A lot more info and a lot easier to understand. Plus, the writing is movie quality the way he presents it! Great video
Man i dont BELIVE this guy didnt know the animatronics were posesed XD
Even without lore, I would know they were possessed lol
Finally glad to see bijuu join the fnaf fandom :D
i really hope mike takes his time w security breach, since he seems so excited to seek glamrock freddy
According to the game Dayshift At Freddy’s the box is supposedly to be filled with items of the missing children I.E a hat or a scarf. But idk if this is canon but I just wanted to say that. Also if you decide to play DAF please know that it has a lot of inappropriate stuff.
"I know I'm stupid, you don't have to tell me". Why is this me every time someone insults me though
HE ACTUALLY DID IT-
YESS
Yeah I’m happy that he did
Mike is living proof that it's never to late do something you wan't to do
After you are done with security breach you should watch hyper deriod's video where he basically explains in deep detail about the fnaf lore from fnaf 1-security breach. Legit can't believe its been over 7 years since it came out and we still have so friggin many questions...
Bijuu Mike, purple guy is still alive because, HE ALWAYS COMES BACK
I was just watching a lore recap lmaoo
my childhood right here, I used to love watching u play ddlc, fans and that weird one with the furbies
I used to think FNAF was stupid too lol I never liked it but then I watched Razz's videos of FNAF and FNAF memes. I loved it and then got into Markiplier's playthroughs! Glad to see another one of my favorite RUclipsrs getting into FNAF
Same but I got into by my friends recomandation
Cant wait for bijuu mike to play fnaf world! WHOS WITH ME???
He needs to react to the Fnaf Musical, that would be hilarious lmaoo
Yeah
Never was big on these games but I am glad you watched this. (I do like watching the spin off games though.)
Um well you see Circus Baby (Elizabeth) didn't know that the Nightguard was her brother because it's been years since she's seen him and also Mikey (Michael) changed his style to look a little like his Father Mr. Afton and also the Hand unit did think Michael put his name as kinda like the main main name Eggs Benedict and since Ennard lives inside him now Ennard still calls Michael Eggs Benedict and Michael hates being called Eggs Benedict because that's not his original name but it's a name that the Hand Unit kinda like made up that's all I'm going to say for now probably so bye for now
None of the animatronics knew about Michael being Michael at all. I mean, why would they chase down and attack a guy who was on THEIR side and wanted to finish off THEIR murderer? Ever since the children's souls possessed the corresponding animatronics, they had trouble telling adults apart. They never wished to hurt anyone, they just wanted to make their killer, William, suffer. Problem with that: They can't tell who actually is William and who isn't. William couldn't be a child, so they never attacked children, but adults- They thought every adult they saw was their killer. That's the reason they attack you as Michael. Michael confirms this when speaking to Springtrap in Sister Location. "They didn't recognize me at first, but then they thought i was you."
Hyper droid's recent video on the timeline is another good one to watch. 🙂 It goes a little more in depth.
tbh this is really hard to follow for a new player but then again Hyper Droids video is a hour long so I don't think thats happening 💀
Can't wait to see you play the next FNAF games, Mike! It's so interesting seeing you get into the story!!
Don't worry, you probably never played the other games, I'm sure the others are angry for nothing because you said the wrong versions of the stories in the other videos but how could you know the story correctly, it's hard to know the complete story of fnaf, also be careful on security breach there are a lot of bugs, on the other hand you could even speedrun on it thanks to the glitch, I'd love it so much after you finish security breach, you'll try to speedrun the game, I hope you'll be able to do all the endings :)
Especially the afton ending
Like my comm so he can see
13:28 You have to remember that's after a long time of decay alongside a human body before that it was probably a adorable, Brightly colored bunny suit, which I'm pretty sure a child would be very willing to follow.
Golden Freddy has not been explained, Scott himself straight up does not know what it is. But some people say it's possessed by a girl named Cassidy. Also Golden Freddy is NOT FredBear
Golden Freddy does have lore tied to him. For ex: the 5th child that appears in a Fnaf 2 mini right before his jumpscare, a short cut scene appears of him when you beat 50/20 in UCN. The books mention Golden Freddy. And many other things are in reference to him. At first Golden Freddy was just a fun easter egg, but now he's becoming more integrated into the lore.
@@elijahsmall5873 Oh no doubt that he does have lore, i'm just saying that truly, Scott Cawthon stated that he doesn't know what Golden Freddy is
@@Chiller-pc1dv I know, I think he either said it in Dawko's interview with him or on Reddit.
Mat: And it's lookin' like Vanny is about to become a VERY important player in the Fnaf story.
Us now: Haha, no!
Even though that video is outdated and the story being told is wrong it is a great place for people to know the lore but I recommend reading other information because it's not 100% correct
Mike talking about how he would have nightmares of springtrap:
Also mike making fun of his jumpscare:
I choked on my cheese
Cool
Amazing!🤩
Cheese
Lmbo “I used to think FNAF was something stupid…”
Me too. My little sister was super into it a couple years back and I thought it was so unappealing up until recently. Literally, starting this week, suddenly it’s my new favorite thing. It’s just… the loooooooooooooooooooooooooore
I still like to consider Mike Schmidt and Michael Afton as two different characters, even if it's not canon.
When he brought out a picture of springtrap and said, 'What's so funny is the fact that, honestly, you tell me what kid would see this, and want to go near it.' I almost cried laughing
Outdated video but a good one nonetheless. A lot of this could change, some of it has in fact, but it’s still useful for newcomers.
