  • Question
    Is it necessary to make the game with jump scares?
    CamelHey73
    Top Answerer
    Yes. The jump scares are what made the game so popular, and since that's continued for five titles, it's very likely they'll be there in the next ones.
  • Question
    Is something wrong with me? Because the first time I got jumped scared ever, I only flinched. Is that normal or not?
    Community Answer
    Yes, it's normal. Not all people are scared of the jumpscares. Sometimes people think certain jumpscares are funny. Everyone is different.
  • Question
    Can Gold Freddy hurt me, or is he just a distraction?
    Community Answer
    Yes, he hurts you. If you see him in the poster, pull down your camera and then put it back or he will crash your game.
  • Question
    I'm afraid the Ballora is going to show up in my closet, so I open my closet door very wide before going to bed. My dad then closes the door...What should I do?

    Take your blanket and hide under it. Or just face your fears --- everybody knows that Five Nights at Freddy's isn't real. If she does show up, just throw a frying pan at her.
  • Question
    How can I get my friends into Five Nights at Freddy's?
    Community Answer
    Tell them about the amazing backstory that the game has to offer. Then, talk about how popular the game is. They might be encouraged to try it if they know how many other people play.
  • Question
    Why do they scream when they jumpscare you?
    Bunality
    Community Answer
    Because things are scarier when sounds are added! Just watch an jumpscare video with and without sound and you will see the difference.
  • Question
    I heard a FNaF jumpscare sound when no one was even playing the game. What does that mean?
    Community Answer
    You're probably playing too often. Take a break from the game and find another hobby.
  • Question
    I only play with my friend so it's not scary. Are there any problems with playing with friends?
    Community Answer
    I don't see how it could be a problem. Besides, just about everything is more with a friend.
  • Question
    Why do I have to keep the music box wound in Five Nights at Freddy's 2?
    Community Answer
    The music box is to keep Marionette/The Puppet from coming out of his box. Once he is out of his box,you can't stop the jumpscare.
  • Question
    What happens if Foxy jump scares you?
    CamelHey73
    Top Answerer
    You die. Although in the first game, it can be cut off by the power running out, giving you a bit more time. But this would require very fine timing.
  • Question
    I woke up at 1:40 am and just stayed awake in the dark, but I kept seeing Freddy's face and Golden Freddy's face and can't go back to bed. How can I sleep?
    Community Answer
    It was most likely a hallucination. Try doing things that get your mind off of Five Nights At Freddy's, such as playing other (more relaxing games), or listening to relaxing music, or reading a book. It might be a good time to take a few weeks off the game if it's upsetting you this much.
  • Question
    What are some clues that Foxy doesn't want to kill me?
    Gumpgator
    Community Answer
    None of the animatronics really want to kill you. They think you are a metal endoskeleton, so they want to put you into a Freddy Fazbear suit, killing you in the process.
  • Question
    I'm afraid of the dark now, what do I do?
    Community Answer
    Sleep with a nightlight on. Remind yourself that nothing about Five Nights at Freddy's is real, and you have nothing to be afraid of. If the game is really upsetting you, stop playing it.
  • Question
    What makes a jump scare scary?
    Community Answer
    It really depends on what you personally find scary. For some people, jump scares are so scary because of the loud, sudden sounds. Other people are more afraid of the anticipation.
  • Question
    What's Foxy's real purpose?
    Community Answer
    Nobody knows what his intentions are, however there are a lot of theories on it. The main one is that Foxy doesn't want to kill you.
  • Question
    How can I stop having nightmares about Five Nights at Freddy's every night? I don't even play the game or watch others play it.
    Community Answer
    Do not think about the game if it is causing you problems. Try to think about cheerful things, like comedy. You need to do something to keep your mind off of it.
  • Question
    I'm scared of Foxy. In the hallways at night, I can sometimes see him, even when he's not there. How can I overcome my fear of him?

    Community Answer
    It may be time to take a bit of a break from playing FNaF. It may help a lot. If you don't want to take a break, try making fun of him, and check out the "How to Make FNaF Not Scary" video. There are a few funny parts with Foxy in it that may help you overcome your fear.
  • Question
    How do I beat the game?
    Community Answer
    Make sure to have a refresher of your cameras and close the doors when absolutely necessary. When you get to the fifth and sixth night, it more or less comes from a rhythm -- check your cameras quickly and open and close the doors (be mindful to close them again when necessary).
  • Question
    What will happen if you die in the game?
    Community Answer
    They will stuff you into an animatronic suit, which kills you, and your eyes will pop out of the mask.
  • Question
    I can't look at the game for 5 seconds without looking the other way. How can I build my confidence?
    Community Answer
    Keep sending yourself positive messages. Believing you can do it is the most important thing. If you want to accomplish something, set your mind to it. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it.
  • Question
    Is Freddy's Pizzeria real?
    Community Answer
    No, nothing about Five Nights at Freddy's is real. It's just a game.
  • Question
    What happens when you see a decapitated black head of Nightmare on the bed in Five Nights at Freddy's 4?
    Community Answer
    You need to keep the flashlight on or you will die. He is like the Freddles when he is on the bed. Remember to close the doors immediately if you see him in the hallways or in the closet.
  • Question
    Is Circus Baby dangerous?
    Fnaflover123
    Community Answer
    Yes, she is. On night 4 of Sister Location, she leads you into the scooping room and kills you.
  • Question
    Why do they want to kill you?
    Community Answer
    They think you're a naked animatronic, so they stuff you in a suit. The fox doesn't want to kill you, though.
  • Question
    Why can't I just die instead of living with the jump scares?
    Community Answer
    Because I think it would be more confusing that way. It would be harder to tell that you died, you wouldn't know who killed you, and you wouldn't have an idea of how to prevent it the next time (like figuring out who to watch out for or when to close the door).
  • Question
    Did the victim of the Bite of '87 die?
    Community Answer
    Yes. He died in the hospital as shown in the ending of Fnaf 4, although many have said that he possesses either the puppet or Golden Freddy.
  • Question
    Why does baby lead me to the scooping room in Sister Location?
    Thewildfred
    Community Answer
    She leads you there so your organs and all that other mushy stuff gets scooped out and then an animatronic can fit in there.
  • Question
    What is the main timeline in FnAF?
    FunTime FunWorldTM
    Community Answer
    Nobody really knows, it's mostly all theory-based because Scott Cawthon (the creator) never really revealed it.
  • Question
    Is FNaF based on Chuck E Cheese's?
    FunTime FunWorldTM
    Community Answer
    Yes. Scott Cawthon most likely was inspired by Chuck E Cheese and decided to make it into a horror game.
  • Question
    What happens if the power runs out in FNaF 1?
    FunTime FunWorldTM
    Community Answer
    If the power runs out, then the lights will go out and you'll see Freddy on the left side of your door, singing a "song" that's a music box. He'll kill you, and most likely you'll become jump scared. Unless, you make it to 6:00 AM before he has a chance to.
