Five Nights at Freddy's (FNAF) is a survival horror game franchise created by Scott Cawthon. The first game, FNAF 1, is set in a fictional pizza restaurant called Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, where the player takes on the role of a security guard working the night shift.
The lore of FNAF 1 centers around the animatronics, robotic characters that entertain children during the day but become active and dangerous at night. The main animatronics are Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie, Chica, and Foxy. The animatronics have a malfunction that causes them to wander the restaurant at night and attack anyone they see as a threat.
The restaurant also has a dark history, as it is revealed that several children have been murdered by a person wearing a Freddy Fazbear suit. The spirits of these children are said to haunt the animatronics, causing them to behave erratically.
The player must use security cameras and limited power to survive the five nights, while trying to uncover the truth behind the animatronics' malfunction and the murders that took place in the restaurant.
The lore of FNAF expanded through the following games, revealing more about the backstory of the restaurant, the animatronics, and the mysterious "Purple Guy" who was responsible for the murder of the children. That will be it for part 1.
