This page contains unmarked spoilers for Five Nights at Freddy's, Five Nights at Freddy's 2, and Five Nights at Freddy's 3. You Have Been Warned!Hello, and welc... well, I guess there's no reason to welcome you in your own home. But hey, congrats; you're going to a party at Fredbear's Family Diner! What? You don't like it there? The animatronics creep you out? Well, don't worry, it's not like they can just crawl into your house whenever they want to, right?Except they can — and they do. For some reason, they look mean and nasty... oh, and they're coming for you. Fortunately, you can fend them off with your flashlight and keep them out of your room with your doors if you see or hear them coming. Just survive for five days until you can go to your party and hopefully everything will turn out fine!Won't it?Five Nights at Freddy's 4 is the fourth installment in the Five Nights at Freddy's horror-themed strategy game franchise by Scott Cawthon. The game was released on July 23rd, 2015. This game is vastly different from the previous installments: Rather than giving you cameras to monitor, this game lets you move around your bedroom, letting you check your doors, bed, and closet — and those animatronics that used to stand still when you looked at them now move freely even if you're staring them right in their creepy glowing eyes.You can watch the trailer on YouTube and buy the game on Steam and Google Play. A version of the game on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One is also available as of November 2019.The game was originally intended to be released on Halloween, but since the base game has already been completed, Scott has since used this date for two releases. The first release is a content update to the base game, which includes a cheat menu, challenge modes, and a twist to a "familiar minigame". The second release is a special "Halloween Edition" of the game, with changed characters and other cosmetic features in celebration of the holiday. Unlike the base game, Scott has outright stated that the Halloween Edition is not canon.Scott's website updated with Nightmare versions of new animatronics such as BB◊, The Puppet◊ and Mangle◊. Other teasers featured orange Palette Swaps of Chica◊ and Bonnie◊. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Compared to the previous games, the tone of this game is bleak. The game takes on a nightmarish red color palette, the animatronics are deliberately monstrous and attack you in your own home, there's no comedic relief to balance out the horror factor, and the (presumed) main character dies on his birthday, and he was only a child. | |

Ambiguous Situation: The guidebook would eventually clear up some details, namely the alleged identity of both the child and his brother, but the ending still remains unclear. Who exactly is talking to the child, and what do they mean by "put you back together"? | |

Halloween Episode | |

Halloween Episode: A special update was released on Halloween 2015, aptly titled the "Halloween Edition". It features slightly reskinned versions of Bonnie and Chica (named Jack-O-Bonnie◊ and Jack-O-Chica◊) and minor Halloween-themed elements in the main story's cutscenes (such as jack-o-lanterns and decorations). It also includes Balloon Boy, the Puppet, and Mangle in major roles, replacing Plushtrap, Nightmare, and Foxy respectively. | |

Easter Egg | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_29a39f6 | comment |
Easter Egg: Yep, you can honk Freddy's nose again (this time a plush toy version of him). However, spending too much time looking at the bed (such as, say, honking the plush's nose) summons Nightmare Foxy to kill you instantly. What appears to be Scott Cawthon's family photos can be seen on the wall of the Left Hallway. So, ahem, is Scott the Child's father? Theories abound (though it probably is not). During Night 1, there is faint Black Speech which is actually Phone Guy's Night 1 call from FNaF 1, reversed and distorted. | |

Artifact Title | |

Artifact Title: Despite the title, the protagonist, unlike his predecessors, does not spend five nights at any Freddy's. The setting is instead a house that the Nightmare Animatronics are haunting. There is a pizzeria (or rather, a diner) close to his house, though, and plays a very important part of the between-night minigames. | |

Properly Paranoid: This child is the only person in the games scared of Fredbear's Diner and the murderous, haunted animatronics. While Afton clearly still has his job—implying that the murders are still relatively unknown—five kids that he sees on his way home validate his fears. | |

Artifact of Doom | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_3b5fcbb7 | comment |
Artifact of Doom: The Fredbear plush in the minigames subverts this. While the plush does guide the Child towards bad events (such as leading him to his brother), it's implied to genuinely care for him; in this light, its prodding is trying to help the child face his fears instead of hiding (they both know that the fear of his brother's scares won't stop until they get it over with, hiding only prolongs that anxiety). | |

| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The protagonist’s Big Brother Bully and his friends stick the child’s head in Fredbear's jaws during a song routine. Not only is Fredbear a spring-lock suit, with overly strong mechanisms that can tear a grown man to ribbons in seconds, but the skull of a child is only 1/8 as strong as that of an adult's. The Child's head is completely crushed by Fredbear's programmed jaw movements after little resistance. | |

The ghosts of the murdered kids, too. In all the other games, they were the force behind the game's events. Here? It's simply the Crying Child’s asshole brother. Unless the five kids he meets in the post-Night 3 minigame are their spirits reaching out to him, and his Fredbear plush really is haunted by one of them... | |

| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_4508b16b | comment |
The Guards Must Be Crazy: Aside from an Easter Egg showing a pair of employees putting on a mascot suit, there's no sign of any security guards at Fredbear's: nobody responds to the sight of four teenagers dragging a screaming smaller child through the restaurant and stuffing him into an onstage animatronic's mouth, which is a situation that warrants an intervention by security. This is especially noteworthy since staying near the animatronic is established as a top priority of day shift guards two games prior. | |

What Could Have Been | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_453871ec | comment |
Beating the special "Nightmare" night nets you a screen with a locked chest — shaped much like the heads of the crying children in the previous games' minigames, complete with "tears" — that hinted at more secrets yet to be revealed. This would end up staying closed, per Scott's decision. | |

Downer Ending: The Crying Child doesn't survive his brother's onslaught, being killed in a prank gone wrong that his brother orchestrated during his birthday. It becomes slightly less of a downer when the spirit haunting his Fredbear plush seemingly appologizes and promises to 'put him back together', but what exactly that means is unknown. | |

The So-Called Coward: The Crying Child, who is always crying and hates Fredbear's Diner. Still, anyone in his shoes would be terrified with a Big Brother Bully who scares him on a regular basis, to say nothing that he is Properly Paranoid about the diner given what happens to him on his birthday. He holds up pretty well with Fredbear's help, all things considered. | |

Namely that Spring Bonnie, a golden predecessor of Bonnie, exists, and he and Golden Freddy (whom this game reveals is called Fredbear in-universe) used to headline an establishment of Freddy's, overshadowing the original Fazbear gang. | |

Sequel Hook | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_6293c185 | comment |
Sequel Hook: Beating the special "Nightmare" night nets you a screen with a locked chest — shaped much like the heads of the crying children in the previous games' minigames, complete with "tears" — that hinted at more secrets yet to be revealed. This would end up staying closed, per Scott's decision. Scottgames shows the text "The End. Thanks for playing!" Brightening the image (of course) reveals it actually says "The End?" | |

Kids Are Cruel | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_63389b0b | comment |
Kids Are Cruel: The Crying Child’s brother is, putting it lightly, a huge dick. He loves tormenting his younger sibling by locking him in frightening places or jumping out at him while wearing a Foxy mask. Most of the other kids that the player interacts with aren't much better, laughing at his peril as he dreads having his party at Freddy's. It quickly goes From Bad to Worse by showing the Crying Child being forced into Fredbear's mouth by the other kids, including his own brother. Big mistake. | |

He Knows Too Much: Averted; even though the Crying Child can witness the Purple Man putting a spring-locked suit on someone else, what eventually happens to him is an entirely different matter. This may be because the Purple Man may simply be helping an employee into the suit. | |

The Reveal | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
The Reveal: Golden Freddy's real name is Fredbear. Mangle appears in the Child’s house. Toy Freddy, Toy Bonnie, and Toy Chica also appear as toys owned by a local kid. After the Halloween update, there is "Fun with Balloon Boy", which highly suggests that the child is aware of the original BB's existence. With the indirect confirmation by Scott that the game takes place in 1983, all of these mean that the Toy animatronics weren't introduced in 1987; they have existed since long before that (possibly as a parallel roster of the original Fazbear gang). The kid you're controlling in the minigames was the victim of an unfortunate and lethal brain injury. His brother and some of the brother's friends lifted the kid up towards Fredbear during the kid's birthday party as a prank. The kid ended up crushed in Fredbear's jaw. | |

Trauma Conga Line | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_71e8a5c5 | comment |
Trauma Conga Line: The game is one big one for the Crying Child. He is consistently abused by his family — his brother locks him in his room, while his parents leave him at the diner which he hates and later force him to go there for his birthday. All of this culminates in the kid being pranked by his brother and some of his friends when they put his head inside Fredbear's mouth — a prank that ends with his head crushed. That might not even be the end; if the voice in the final cutscene was able to do as promised... | |

He's Back! | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_81bdc398 | comment |
He's Back!: After sitting Out of Focus in the second game and becoming a completely nonlethal distraction in the third, Freddy appears in the first teaser image for FNAF 4 and gives us a firm reminder of why he owns the Antagonist Title. Bonnie didn't even show up as a distraction in FNAF 3, but he returns in this game with a similar nightmarish overhaul. He is the animatronic featured most prominently in the trailer — and is the one to give the obligatory Jump Scare at the end. Golden Freddy, who was simply a cameo in the third game, makes his return as his original identity, Fredbear... who inspires Nightmare Fredbear. Mangle, Balloon Boy, and the Puppet return in the Halloween update as genuine enemies who can kill you. In the previous game, they were nonlethal- supposed- hallucinations. | |

Mini Mook: The Freddles. Turn your back on your bed too long and more of them gather, only running off when you shine your flashlight at them. Fail to do so and Nightmare Freddy will come after you soon after three of them gather. Plushtrap is the enemy in the Fun with Plushtrap minigames. The goal is to flash him at a certain time to make him stop on the cross on the floor and win the chance to start the next night at 2 o'clock. | |

Rule of Symbolism: Nightmare appears to have a human brain as a part of his exoskeleton/suit.◊ While this seems to make no sense aside from being creepy, it's actually a very unsubtle metaphor to the whole Ghost in the Machine situation going on with the animatronics: a human mind controlling a robot body. | |

More Teeth than the Osmond Family: The Nightmare animatronics are characterized by having long, sharp teeth.

And I Must Scream | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: If Fredbear and the other animatronics are haunted during the Child’s birthday party, it just adds another layer of horror and sadness. Imagine being trapped in an animatronic created for the sole purpose of entertaining children, and then a group of nasty boys shove a child into your mouth. You know he's not supposed to be there, but there's nothing you can do; you can't go against your programming. You can't open your mouth wider so he can pull himself out, you can't move your arms to pull him out of your mouth, you can't even stop your mouth from clamping down on the kid's head. You continue with your performance, unable to stop yourself, and listen to the sickening crunch as you bite down against your will, feel the blood pour from your mouth, and watch as the laughter once again turns to screaming. The (apparently initial) fate of the protagonist after said unfortunate accident. | |

Oh, Crap!: The Crying Child and his plushie have some moments, especially where his brother’s abuse is involved. Every time the Child is scared by his brother. When someone sees the Child at Fredbear's Family Diner and an adult in a Fredbear suit starts chasing him. When the Child’s locked in the Spare Parts room and is banging to escape. | |

Don't Celebrate Just Yet: The day after the release of Five Nights at Freddy's 3, Scott placed an image on his site that showed Freddy's iconic hat under a spotlight. This image gave off the implication of a "The End" moment without actually writing the words (and FNAF 3 had the words in its "Good" ending, besides). On the 22nd of April, the hat vanished from the spotlight. Five days later, Scott posted the first teaser image for FNAF 4: Nightmare Freddy holding the hat in his hand. | |

Don't Look At Me: This is played with in the game. Shining light on the animatronics when they're far away from you will (supposedly) scare them away. Doing the same when they're near you will instead provoke their attack. | |

Demoted to Extra: The Purple Guy's role is severely reduced from the last three games — he only appears in a cameo, putting someone inside the Spring Bonnie suit. The ghosts of the murdered kids, too. In all the other games, they were the force behind the game's events. Here? It's simply the Crying Child’s asshole brother. Unless the five kids he meets in the post-Night 3 minigame are their spirits reaching out to him, and his Fredbear plush really is haunted by one of them... | |

Jump Scare | |
| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_c04b1231 | comment |
Jump Scare: Checking the closet has the possibility of being greeted by Foxy sticking his head out the door, accompanied by a brief yet still effective snippet of the game's jumpscare scream. The protagonist's older brother has a hobby of leaping out from various hiding places in a Foxy mask and screaming. Nightmare and Nightmarionne lack traditional jumpscare animations; getting caught by them results in a cut to a still image of the character with static noises playing over it, followed by the game resetting. | |

The '80s: The game takes place in 1983. note though due to the constant references to the Bite of '87 in the promotional materials- which have since been edited to omit most of these references- many individuals thought it was 1987. | |

Anti-Frustration Features: When you open up the game, the first thing it tells you to do is to turn up the volume until you hear crickets chirping. This is to ensure that you'll be able to hear the nightmares breathing so you know when to close the door and not use the flashlight. It also asks you to hold down the Shift key — which you have to do to hold the doors closed — in order to make sure Sticky Keys is turned off. | |

| Five Nights at Freddy's 4 (Video Game) / int_f068cba | comment |
Oddball in the Series: The gameplay takes place in a house instead of the titular establishment (which is still seen in between-night minigames), the protagonist is a child rather than a security guard, cameras are absent, and the story deviates from the main serial killer plot and focuses on the events leading up to an animatronic's bite (though not the one in 1987). Unlike other examples of this trope, this is actually a celebrated aspect of this installment. | |
