The Replacement Files
A Human-AU Analog Horror Series Inspired by FNAF
Welcome to Grill & Grin, a once-beloved family burger joint hiding more than grease behind its walls. Staffed by familiar faces-Fred, Bon, Connie, Fynn, and the quiet one no one remembers hiring-the diner runs like clockwork. Too perfect. Too polite. Too... identical.
When strange tapes begin surfacing-old training videos, corrupted employee files, and footage no one remembers filming-a darker pattern emerges. People are being replaced. Not fired. Not missing. Replaced.
Behind the smiles and uniforms, something is learning. Mimicking. Upgrading.
And with every glitch, every "training" tape, it gets better at being you.
> "If you see yourself in the hallway... keep smiling. It already knows your face."

Thanks, Dad.(A Journal of bad decisions, haunted chairs, and unpaid overtime)
Look, I didn't come back for closure. Or redemption. Or because I missed the smell of existential grease fires and malfunctioning mascots. I came back because some places don't let you leave-especially when you still owe them something. This is my log. My night shift journal. My emotionally unstable guidebook to surviving the world's worst pizza graveyard. Inside: haunted arcade machines, animatronics with boundary issues, memories I didn't ask for, and a very sarcastic chair. Also? My deadbeat dad might've built half of it. Geat. If you're looking for a hero's journey, look elsewhere. I'm just here to survive, maybe remember less, and argue with ghosts that know my name. (Spoiler: they're winning.)Complete

I Think I Smell A Rat
Being a robotic repair rat who lives in the walls of the pizza-plex is a pretty great gig, all things considered! You fix the wires instead of chew them, and you get into tight spaces those silly humans can't reach and fix things up behind the scenes. You do your little tasks diligently, and all is well. That is, until one night when you realize all of your other repair rat friends have gone missing, and almost all of those animatronics outside the walls are acting strange... You aren't sure what it is that needs fixing, but by golly you'll fix it! You just might need a little help along the way... -Not a lot of warnings for this one! There is some peril and danger, damage to robots, and damage to. Uh, whatever the heck Afton is at this point?? -Reader insert! You're a little rat shaped robot a handful of inches long. Lots of borrower-related themes in here -Daycare attendant centered, though the other animatronics make brief appearances. You hang out with Sun in the first half of the story and Moon in the second half! -A little over 17000 words in total, just a lil guy! 5 chapters, they're all pretty short -I somehow managed not to swear once in the entire story, aw hell yeah! Wait-Complete

FAZBEAR'S TRUTH II - THE FALL OF THE NEW FREDDY'S
In 2018, Freddy Fazbear's Pizza reopened its doors with bright colours, new technology, and promises of safety. But behind the LED smiles and plastic faces lurked the same darkness that destroyed the old restaurant years before. When Jeremy Fitzgerald, a young night guard desperate for work, takes the graveyard shift at the newly rebuilt location, he expects boredom... not nightmares made of metal. On his first week, Jeremy discovers: The Toy Animatronics behaving strangely A locked maintenance room management refuses to acknowledge A music box connected to a girl named Emma Emerson Cameras glitching with the ghost of a murdered child Files linking the new restaurant to old tragedies And animatronics in the back room that should have stayed dead As each night grows more violent, the machines become aware-watching him, hunting him, remembering him. And somewhere deep inside the Puppet's painted smile, Emma is still trying to tell her story. When the truth finally reaches Jeremy, it is already too late. The incident that will leave him unconscious for years is set in motion, and the new Freddy's descends into terror. This is the night the world forgot. The night the franchise tried to bury. The night that left Jeremy Fitzgerald in a coma-and awakened something far worse. Before the fire of 2025... Before Ethan Cole uncovered the Ward legacy... It all began here. The truth doesn't burn. It comes back.Complete
Ol' Big Ears
You are a freelance technician. The job had its perks, you made your own hours, turned down dangerous jobs and picked your clientele. This was to be a simple job, they seemed desparate for anyone to take it. "J-just come in a take a look at the machine. Even if you can't fix him we'll pay you for the full night! Just please, take a look." A full night's pay for a few hours of work? Sure! At the time you had no idea it would spiral into a murder mystery, your personal brush with death and uncovering the dark history of a glam rock-themed pizza chain. And everyone keeps mentioning some sort of security breach that happened a year prior. Uncover the mystery of the missing purple bunny. 1. Set one year after FNAF:SB and in a combo of the Burntrap + Redemption endings. 2. If you aren't a fan of (Y/N) then feel free to refer to the character as Red or Red Guy (cause Read = Red, get it?). Thanks for getting this to #1 everyone!Complete
