This is an overview of the timeline for the Five Nights at Freddy's games. Outside of events that are canon to the games like, the Fazbear Frights book series are not included.
•Fredbear's Family Diner is opened by William Afton and Henry Emily. Four animatronics are present, being Fredbear, Spring Bonnie, The Puppet, and Golden Freddy.
•Take Cake to the Children/Security Puppet Minigame Happens
•Charlotte is locked outside of Fredbear's
•Fredbear & Friends airs

•Give Gifts Give Life Happens
•The Puppet gave them life, allowing the souls of the children to possess them.
•Customers notice smells start to come from the suits
•Freddy's shuts down
•The Older animatronics are retro-fitted with newer technology, but scrapped and used for spare parts
•Freddy Fazbear's Pizza reopens with a new location in early November, featuring the new Toy animatronics, as well as The Puppet once again. The remaining five animatronics from the old Freddy Fazbear's Pizza location were initially planned to be reused, being retrofitted with the new technology, but were inevitably stored in the back room, being used for parts instead.
The location only lasts two weeks, with the final few days containing another set of dead children, followed by the The Bite of '87. The location shuts down following the latter, as the new Toy animatronics are scrapped. The old animatronics are kept for a future reopening.
•Freddy Fazbear's Pizza '93 opens
•Spring Bonnie is stored in the location's safe room
In the first week of November, Phone Guy starts recording messages for a future nightguard. Within this same week, during his fourth recording, the animatronics all attack at once, with Golden Freddy managing to kill him.
The following week, Michael Afton gets a job at the location under the name Mike Schmidt, spending a week there. On his seventh night, Michael tampers with the animatronics, changing their AI values and thus changing their aggression. He is promptly fired for this tampering, alongside the odor he picked up from doing so.
William Afton creates his own line of animatronics, known as the Funtime Animatronics, designed to lure and kill children on their own. They were intended to be used in Circus Baby's Pizza World, but leading up to the location's grand opening, Circus Baby herself killed his daughter, Elizabeth Afton, during private testing. The location was then cancelled, with her death being covered up with gas leaks. Elizabeth possessed Circus Baby, the animatronic's eyes turning green, as the Funtime animatronics were then moved to Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rentals.
The Funtimes were sent out as a rental service, with families being able to rent them out for birthday parties. After a while, William Afton eventually sent his son, Michael Afton, down as a technician, with the goal to put Elizabeth back together.
While Michael was down there, William went to the third Freddy Fazbear's location, and dismantled the four main animatronics. However, the souls of The Missing Children grew restless, and were set free from the animatronic vessels, attacking William. The soul of Cassidy, possessing Golden Freddy, chased him around the safe room, before he hid inside of the Spring Bonnie suit, laughing briefly before the springlocks went off, crushing him inside.
Michael kept returning to Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rentals for five nights, following HandUnit and Circus Baby's instructions. On the third night, Funtime Foxy attacked him, kidnapping him and taking him to the Scooping Room, where Circus Baby hid him inside of an old Springlock Suit intended for her location.
On the fourth night, the animatronics started using The Scooper on themselves. Finally, on the fifth night, Michael was sent to repair Circus Baby herself, who had him take a chip out of her and send her to the Scooping Room. She then guided him back through Funtime Auditorium, as Ennard stalked him, pretending that it was Ballora. She guided him to the Scooping Room, and once he was inside, revealed that it was all a trick. Ennard used the Scooper on him, ripping out part of his skeleton, before hollowing the rest of him out manually, using his corpse as a skin suit to escape.
Michael's body rotted, and after a while, ejected Ennard into the sewers. Circus Baby's voice repeated in Michael's head, and the remnant inside of him caused Michael to live on, his soul possessing his hollow, rotten corpse.
Despite their name being confirmed in both stories, they is never directly mentioned in the Games. Instead, their name was uncovered through a puzzle within the Survival Logbook. It's thought that they know the Crying Child, due to the things they know about him in the Survival Logbook.
History and development. The concept for Five Nights at Freddy's stemmed from the negative reception of Scott Cawthon's earlier game, Chipper & Sons Lumber Co., where players said that the main character resembled a "scary animatronic animal."
