    Some tidbits from the Reddit as of writing:
    -the Android version of the mobile port was updated a week before the book release, and someone has already put the files on the Reddit and found an image of a brown wall: no such brown wall/building exists in the game
    -New Harmony has a post office on a corner, it’s a 15 minute drive from Cedar City, is speculated to be where Charlie went to school, and is north of Hurricane City, which is where Silver Eyes took place
    -most of the FNAF games have likely taken place in Utah due to the location of the lawsuits
    -the ARG may have been cut because of the pandemic

  • @kylerivera3470

    The fact that they are described as "scrapped stories" is really suspicious to me. As MatPat said, it's weird that they would be "scrapped", but still appear like normal. My first thought is that the books actually exist in the fnaf universe. I'm not saying that the stories are canon, but that the books themselves exist in the fnaf universe. Perhaps the stories from book 12 were things that Fazbear Entertainment didn't want the public thinking about. I don't know how plausible this idea is, but it might be worth considering.

  • @vedanadleeh3908
    @vedanadleeh3908 Před rokem +57

    I think the reason why we're being stumped like this when it comes to FNAF was the fact that SB was delayed waaay too much that the books came out first.
    It may not seem much, but considering our thought processes during this whole shabang was we have the current new evidence (the games as they are released, or in much simpler terms piece 1) and from there pieces 2-nth would be given to us as we progress.
    But with SB, we were given Piece 2, not Piece 1, and that simple change in our formula was rocked so much that it's hard to see perspectives to create a coherent theory to piece things up
    Added the fact that the lore is quite dodgy and at times really obscure didn't help our confusion either

    I read Felix The Shark awhile ago and I remember the “flowers and butterflies” drawings very oddly dropped in the story. Like what was the point? However after digging in my FNAF notes journal (yes I have one, I’m a nerd) I saw that I noted Vanessa from Security Breach liked flowers from the cassettes. This may be a meaningless dead end but it was odd to me that both of these pieces of FNAF media mention “flowers” and the book written in Felix The Shark was written by the daughter of someone connected to Freddy Fazbear’s. I know it’s a stretch but could this be hinting to Vanessa being one of the children or at the very least connected to Henry/William? Just something to think about.

      You've perfectly put into words my feelings on the subject. I like FNAF being this weird crazy thing that doesn't make too much sense, because the main story's no longer the important thing anymore.
      It's the community- always has been. The music, the art, animations, Analog Horror series; it feels like we're really part of something, and FNAF's just the medium for that energy.
      We know too much, we've been here too long, we're in it for the long haul.

    The main thing that’s bothering me more than anything about this ARG is what’s the end point. Every ARG has a clear ending you’ve got to figure out. The Wilbur ARG was all about figuring out what Wilbur did. The Bill Cypher Hunt that Matt Pat mentioned in this video was all about finding Bill.
    So here’s my question what is the ARG about? What are we looking for? Is there anything even hinting towards an ARG outside of this book? Right now it feels like a scraped ARG, which is why this story was scrapped originally.

    FNaF having a IRL ARG would honestly be perfect for this series. One of the oldest rumors/hoaxed was the photoshopped real life Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza. Speaking of that location, anyone know where the actual building is? Seems like it would be a great place to hide some sort of clue for anyone who’s been following this series from the beginning
    Edit: after seeing some thoughts on this theory on both the FNaF and Game Theory subreddit this doesn’t seem like the best idea. Sure going thru game files or the coloring book didn’t hurt anyone but actually going to an IRL location could have some negative consequences especially if they’re not tied to FNaF in any way

    The colouring books make me wonder how you could hide something within the pages.

Either that or you need to colour in exactly where the lines are and it reveals something that way. Honestly wouldn't surprise me if what's revealed is what appears to be some weird letters which make sense when looked at in a mirror.

    the Summer Merch Release really lining up with the vibe of this video lol. Made the Gravity Falls connection to, I love how the theme of the finale was to go out into the world and explore and discover and the thing right after the show was literally to do just that! But for this I think they are (or were) going for a creepy "you never know what's real" kind of thing. You can see that with the VR stuff as well.

    "Y'know, I think it would be a lot cooler if the animatronics could "hear" you. It would remove the need for security bots and would allow creativity in strategies. For example, you might find Chica in her room while you're trying to get the party pass, and to lure her out, you make a noise to cause her to leave and investigate.

    I dont know if you have already found this, nor if it is decor, but in some of the books next to the chapter title and first letter of the chapter there are some SMALL and I mean SMALL random letters, and me and my friend found foot prints, a ghost ( We think) And something else, on the pages VERY faded, we tryed so hard to see if it was decor or not, we got SO tired of looked back and forth in the books, I think it had to do with Elizabeth, Michael, and the crying child.

    “If the creator wanted you to know, he would tell us” Yeah, that translates to, he can just keep adding stuff to the lore to make you feel lost. You can’t figure out the story if the story never seems to end! Why do game developers feel like if someone figures out the mystery, they somehow failed? Like who are you trying to be? Rod Sterling?

    I'm kind of dissapointed with how the fnaf lore has been treated lately. It seems so impossible to solve and every new game answers questions but leaves an unfair amount of plot holes that will never be solved until you wait for the next game release. It's unsatisfying if you're this stumped with this many mysteries.

    The Butterfly drawings made me think of Baden Powells Butterfly drawings that were secretly maps during WW1. He hid the layout of enemy bases in the spots on the wings.
    Maybe the FNAF coloring book drawings are maps done the way Baden Powel would make one. Bigger ink blotches and odd lines representing roads and buildings and such.

    The story with Timmy is relating to fnaf 2 in suspicious ways. First, one of the main game mechanics of fnaf 2 is the Freddy mask, which directly relates to this story. Second, fnaf 2 starts with a scene where you're on the fnaf 1 stage in the same position as Freddy was, giving me the idea that when we put on the mask we are possessed by the child and we see the same thing they had to go through every day, not to mention the fact that Timmy gets up on the stage in the story and acts like Freddy.

    • @sarahmetcalfe50

      That would explain the vision sequences. The first one seems normal, the second one Bonnie and Chika look at you concerned ( Foxy or Fred bear may have been stuffed too) and then in the third one the puppet appears just before the 'give gifts give life minigame where the puppet beings them to life to haunt the pizzeria.
      Then you get the dismantling scenes from FNAF 3, then the FNAF 2 game itself.

    Dear matpat,
    have a theory about golden Freddy, in the first fnaf game, and how I think that he may be phone guy. Now before you think that this comment is crazy I would like you to read this entire comment and think about it long and hard. Like how you compared the fnaf missing children's incident to the Chucky cheese shooting incident that took place in 1993 and how you compared Golden Freddy to Bobby. I think that what is in golden Freddy's, suit is phone guy, because like he suggested to you, he went limp. and the small white dots in golden Freddy's eye's are the whits parts in phone guy's eye's. Just like Bobby, phone guy survived, and the "it's me" is him telling you that "It's me, phone guy" and he is the only one that does not give you the death screen he crashes the game in stead he crashes your game as if saying "save your self while you still can." And when he was "Killed" he was put in the golden Freddy suit in the kitchen and survived.
    But that is just my theory that I wanted to share
