Uh, I wanted to record a message for you, to help you get settled in on your first night. Um, I actually worked in that office before you, I’m finishing up my last week now as a matter of fact. So, I know it can be a bit overwhelming, but I’m here to tell you there’s nothing to worry about, Uh, you’ll do fine. So, let’s just focus on getting you through your first week, okay?
Uh, let’s see, first there’s an introductory greeting from the company, that I’m supposed to read. Uh, it’s kind of a legal thing, you know.
Um, “Welcome to Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, a magical place for kids and grown-ups alike, where fantasy and fun come to life. Fazbear Entertainment is not responsible for damage to property or person. Upon discovering that damage or death has occurred, a missing person report will be filed within 90 days, or as soon property and premises have been thoroughly cleaned and bleached, and the carpets have been replaced.” Blah blah blah.
Now that might sound bad, I know. But, there’s really nothing to worry about.
Uh, the animatronic characters here, do get a bit quirky at night, but do I blame them? No. If I were forced to sing those same stupid songs for twenty years and I never got a bath? I’d probably be a bit irritable at night too. So, remember, these characters hold a special place in the hearts of children and we need to show them a little respect, right? Okay.
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?
Uh, now concerning your safety. The only real risk to you as a night watchman here, if any, is the fact that these characters, uh, if they happen to see you after hours probably won’t recognize you as a person. They’ll pr-They’ll most likely see you as a metal endoskeleton without its costume on. Now, since that’s against the rules here at Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, they’ll probably try to…forcefully stuff you inside a Freddy Fazbear suit. Um, now, that wouldn’t be so bad, if the suits themselves weren’t filled with crossbeams, wires, and animatronic devices. Especially around the facial area. So you could imagine how having your head forcefully pressed inside one of those could cause a bit of discomfort, and death. Uh, the only parts of you that would likely see the light of day again would be your eyeballs and teeth when they pop out the front of the mask. Heh. Yeah, they don’t tell you these things when you sign up.
But hey, first day should be a breeze. I’ll chat with you tomorrow. Uh, check those cameras, and remember to close the doors only if absolutely necessary. Gotta conserve power. Alright, good night.
Uh, well, if you’re hearing this and you made it to day two, uh, congrats! I-I won’t talk quite as long this time, since Freddy and his friends tend to become more active as the week progresses. Uh, it might be a good idea to peek at those cameras while I talk, just to make sure everyone’s in their proper place. You know. Uh, interestingly enough, Freddy himself doesn’t come off stage very often. I heard he becomes a lot more active in the dark though, so, hey, I guess that’s one more reason not to run out of power, right?
I-I also want to emphasize the importance of using your door lights. Uh, there are blind spots in your camera views, and those blind spots happen to be right outside your doors. So if you can’t find something – or someone – on your cameras, be sure to check the door lights. Uh, you might only have a few seconds to react. Uh, not that you would be in any danger, of course. I’m not implying that.
Also, check on the curtain in Pirate Cove from time to time. The character in there seems unique in that, he becomes more active if the cameras remain off for long periods of time. I guess he doesn’t like being watched. I don’t know.
Uh, anyway, I’m sure you have everything under control! Uh, talk to you soon!
Hey you’re doing great! Most people don’t last this long! I mean, you know, they usually move on to other things by now. I’m not implying that they died. Th-th-that’s not what I meant.
Uh, anyway, I better not take up too much of your time. Things start getting real tonight.
Uh, Hey, listen. I had an idea. If you happen to get caught and want to avoid getting stuffed into a Freddy suit, uh, try playing dead! You know, go limp. Then there’s a chance that, uh, maybe they’ll think that you’re an empty costume instead. Then again if they think you’re an empty costume, they might try to, stuff a metal skeleton into you. I wonder how that would work.
Y-Yeah, never mind, scratch that. I-It’s best just, not to get caught.
Uh, ok, I’ll leave you to it. See you on the flip side!
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*
With this phone call, it is important to note that Phone Guy does not actually speak. Instead, a garbled voice speaks that is assumed to be an animatronic.
When the phone call is reversed and touched up, words can be heard against a backdrop of garbled interference. While it is nearly unrecognisable, the call is actually a reading of an excerpt of a book named “Autobiography of a Yogi” by a writer called “Paramhansa Yogananda”. The excerpt in question is listed here, including parts that have been filled in where “voices” are either omitted or interrupted by screams. These parts are highlighted in red.
The audio below has had the start and end trimmed, reversed and given a much higher pitch. There is also a 1 second silence between each sentence, to aid in understanding the lines given from the audio.
Would it not be easily possible to employ some of them in quick laboratory experiments to indicate the influence of various types of fertilizers on plant growth?
You are right.
Countless uses of Bose instruments will be made by future generations.
The scientist seldom knows contemporaneous reward;
it is enough to possess the joy of creative service.
–Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramhansa Yogananda
-Chapter 8
-Paragraph 36
It is unknown why exactly this book would be used. However, the chapter noted is full of research depicting metal as a living organism through the method of experimentation with Chloroform. This “living metal” theme resonates strongly with the Freddy Fazbear universe.
In addition, it has had some recommendation by many famous individuals, notably attracting the attention and praise of both Steve Jobs and Elvis Presley. It is reported by multiple CEO’s that brown boxes handed to them at Steve Jobs’ memorial service contained a copy of this book. It is also a highly spiritual book, and Scott’s back catalogue has several games featuring very religious tones.

There is a notable “Phone call” in FnaF 4, which is played as random ambience.
However, this call is actually a copy of FNaF1’s night 1 phone call, reversed and garbled. Therefore, it is not listed.
This site a fan-made attempt to solve the FNaF lore through community involvement and rock-solid reasoning for each and every point.
Here is how we hope this will work. While building this timeline, we hope to get community input that correct “mistakes” or pinpoint events on the current timeline, with the backing of solid verifiable evidence.
Because up until this point, no real timelines are out there that show the entire story in a complete and visual form that can be leisurely browsed. We have MatPat’s video series, we have random videos from 8-BitGaming and Smike etc, but no real visual representation for the solid lore. Nothing that users can open and just browse, as opposed to multiple videos which still need to be loaded by the user.
Further, videos created by Youtubers cannot be easily edited. If evidence points to a different theory, they must make an entirely new video. Here, if we receive a correction, we can fix it on the same day, no bother.
No. We are not affiliated with Scott Cawthon in any way, shape or form.
I’d like to take this moment to reach out. Scott, if you are reading this, PLEASE tidy your site HTML. The HTML makes me legitimately sad. Hell, I’ll redo the page for you if you’d want, just, please clean it up a bit. :’c
I’m Kizzycocoa, long-time environmental design enthusiast, working with the Source engine. I’m currently a web designer by trade, so I decided to open this site as a HTML visual solution, as most lores are posted in a messy, unwieldy manner. I designed this site as a simple, visual representation of the FNaF timeline, in a way that many can understand easily, tentatively hoping it’ll help.
No.
We’re more than happy to examine the counter-arguments, and try to weigh which is the correct information! Please, feel free to use our Corrections Page to correct us on any timeline points. Please be as thorough as you can with your evidence, or else we are much less likely to accept your points!
Anyone can get some fonts, swap some colours etc.
We are not associated with Scott Cawthon.
Occasionally, to try to nail down some aspects of the lore, I try to bounce off various ideas and concepts on friends or associates who hold an interest in solving the lore of Five Nights at Freddy’s.
For the sake of transparency, referencing and archival merit, I am archiving these discussions with permissions from those I discuss with. I do so in the hopes that my ramblings can be used to reference and reinforce points I have placed on the timeline, and to potentially bring up new concepts or ideas for the lore.
I wish to stress that these conversations will not be with high-level theorists (at least, not for now). These are, in general, between two theorists who’d not classify themselves as “expert theorists” by any stretch. Conversations between two people who have a keen interest in the lore, having a conversation about the lore, and trying to puzzle out and hard facts and definitive timeline locations for events.
