Five Nights at Freddy's

Five Nights at Freddy's is a video game series that was first released in 2014 and is still ongoing, and now includes accompanying books that first released in 2019 and are also still ongoing.

Games
Each Five Nights at Freddy's game follows a different location in the Freddy Fazbear restaurant franchise. Following a similar restaurant style to the original ShowBiz Pizza establishments, each Fazbear establishment contains a band of anthropomorphized animatronic animal characters. There are slight differences to each animatronic in each location, but most consist of some variations of Freddy, a brown bear, Chica, a yellow chicken, Bonnie, a blue bunny, and Foxy, a red pirate fox. The Fazbear Pizza franchise was co-created by a man named William Afton, who went on to murder five children at one of the original restaurants and stuffed the bodies into each of the stage animatronics, including the fifth abandoned suit of Golden Freddy, an employee-worn variation suit of the Freddy animatronic character. The children's spirits then became entwined with the physical forms of the mascot characters, possessing them. The player of the original game acts as a security guard in the establishment covering the night shift, fending off the possessed animatronics to survive until the restaurant opens at 6 in the morning. In newer games, the player explores establishments inspired by the original story but not including any original characters like the original possessed animatronics and William Afton himself.

Books
The Five Nights at Freddy's books can act as both supplementary and entirely separate to the stories of the games. Each book contains multiple short stories taking place in alternate universes to the game universe. There are a total of 29 books and 5 graphic novels, as well as 10 books akin to coloring books and encyclopedias catering to fans. There are two subsets of the novels: the Fazbear Frights series and the Tales from the Pizzaplex series. Fazbear Frights feature stories parallel to the game canon of all games leading up to Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach, and Tales from the Pizzaplex features stories parallel specifically to the game canon of Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach and the game's DLC content, Ruin.

Trivia

 * FNAF is not actually the first game Scott has made. Scott had a game called Chipper and Sons Lumber co, when fans reported that the game gave them nightmares. Scott jokingly retaliated and created Five Night's At Freddy's.
