  • Question
    How do I keep Golden Freddy away?
    Community Answer
    Don't look at the poster in the hallway when it turns into Golden Freddy's head, don't look at cam 2B often, and flip the monitor up when he appears in the office.
  • Question
    How do I keep Freddy off my tail?
    River
    Community Answer
    When you check the camera, close the left (and/or right) door. When you hear a laugh, Freddy moved. Freddy will know your schedule, so change it often.
  • Question
    How do I stop running out of power on Night 5?
    Top Answerer
    Use the monitor, doors, and lights very sparingly. The monitor should only be used to check on Freddy and Foxy, the lights should be checked sparingly, but sufficiently, and only keep the doors closed when the animatronics are there.
  • Question
    I have heard theories about FNAF being a dream. Is that true?
    Community Answer
    Five Nights at Freddy's 1, 2, 3, and 5 aren't a dream, although the forth one is known and proven to be a dream. The nightmare animatronics aren't real.
  • Question
    What is the best way to beat night 6 in Five Nights at Freddy's 1?
    Community Answer
    Checking both lights, then check the cameras on Foxy and Freddy and repeat.
  • Question
    If Freddy leaves the Show Stage, is there enough time to stop him?
    Patience Driggers
    Community Answer
    Yes, listen to his laughs. That will tell you where he is. If he laughs five times and the right door is open, the next time you lower the monitor he will jumpscare you.
  • Question
    Will there be a Five Nights at Freddy's 7?
    Community Answer
    No one can say for sure until it's officially announced, but based on the popularity of the franchise, it's very likely.
  • Question
    I can't beat Night 5, and I've tried nearly everything. What do I need to do?
    Community Answer
    Check the doors often. When you check the camera for Foxy, put the left door down. The only cameras you really need to check are the Pirate's Cove camera, and the cameras nearest to the office. Otherwise, just check the doors.
  • Question
    Is it true that Freddy can phase pass your door, even if you have it closed?
    Gumpgator
    Community Answer
    No. He can only get in if the right door is open, when you are on the cameras, and he is at the corner.
  • Question
    Why does Chica never leave the office?
    Community Answer
    With patience, she will leave. If the right door is disabled, she is in the office. She won’t leave at this point, so avoid putting up the monitor if she is in the room.
  • Question
    What do can I do to save myself if I run out of power?
    Community Answer
    There is nothing you can do; everything is disabled, so the only thing you can do is hope that the chime rings before someone attacks you.
  • Question
    How do I make the game less scary?
    Community Answer
    Watch How to make Five Nights at Freddy's not scary videos on YouTube, and get used to the jump scares. Also, watch funny jump scare videos.
  • Question
    Can you tell me if Golden Freddy can attack me if I close the door forever from 12 a.m. to the end?
    Community Answer
    He can. If you see a poster and hear a little girl's laugh, he is in the office. Keep that monitor up!
  • Question
    How can I make a Five Nights at Freddy's story?
    Community Answer
    You can look at other stories, and get inspiration. Just don't steal their idea; it reflects badly on your story.
  • Question
    How do I beat night three of Five Nights at Freddy's?
    Community Answer
    Since Bonnie and Chica pose a huge threat on nights three and up, use this order: Check lights (close the door if an animatronic is there), check Foxy, then check Freddy.
  • Question
    How do I stop getting killed by Freddy?
    Community Answer
    Check the east light and listen for Freddy's laugh; if it gets close, shut the east door.
  • Question
    Bonnie and Chica keep attacking on Night 2. How do I get through Night 2?
    Community Answer
    Just do your best. Check the lights, close the door immediately when Bonnie or Chica is there, and keep your eyes straight on the power.
  • Question
    Should I close the door everybody comes from for all the nights and just check the other door?
    Jvorhees 13
    Community Answer
    No. You will run out of power quickly and therefore won't survive the night. Only close the doors when you truly need to.
  • Question
    Sometimes Chica is at one door, Bonnie is at the other door, and Foxy is about to come out. How do I get past that?
    Community Answer
    If you aren't fast enough to defend yourself, just let them kill you. It's better to start over in a better situation than try to get out of an impossible one.
  • Question
    Why can't I have both doors closed the whole time?
    The Piccolo
    Community Answer
    Closing the doors will decrease your power faster, resulting in a early death by Freddy Fazbear, but if you have the Cheat mode activated, you may try it.
  • Question
    How do you get through "Night 4" in FNAF 1?
    Community Answer
    Check doors and make sure you keep Freddy away. Check on Foxy frequently and if an animatronic is at your door, check the lights, and keep the door closed. If the robots are gone, then open doors to save power. Continue this method, but keep in mind that if Freddy laughs five times, shut your door, because if you don't, he kills you.
  • Question
    Is golden Freddy a hallucination?
    Gumpgator
    Community Answer
    This is a theory, but has not been confirmed.
  • Question
    How can I activate cheat mode?
    Community Answer
    For the PC version, you must download the cheat online in order to activate cheat mode. On Android, you can buy cheat mode on the in-game store. iOS does not have cheat mode unless you hack the phone.
  • Question
    Is it safe to keep the door open whenever an animatronic is in the hallway, not the corner?
    Community Answer
    Yes. They move each hour as the night progresses. Make sure you look at the power and time.
  • Question
    Can you explain to me what the custom night is?
    Community Answer
    Custom night is unlocked after beating night 6. In it, you can manually change the difficulty of the 4 characters from 0 to 20.
  • Question
    Why do the animatronics want to kill you?
    Joshua
    Community Answer
    They don't want to kill you; they see you as an endoskeleton without a suit on. That's against the rules at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, so they stuff you in a suit, killing you in the process.
  • Question
    Can I get rid of Freddy when the power is out?
    Community Answer
    No. When the power is out, Freddy will kill you. There is no stopping this, so try not to lose your power.
  • Question
    How do I beat 20/20/20/20 mode on Night 7?
    Community Answer
    This is incredibly brutal, you will need to check the door lights 3 times, then check on Foxy and Freddy. You will need quick hands and a quick mind to beat this mode.
  • Question
    How does Freddy appear when no power is available?
    Community Answer
    You will see his eyes flickering at the left door as he plays his jingle. When the room goes completely dark and the music stops, you are likely seconds away from getting killed, and there is no way to stop this.
  • Question
    I don't understand how to play dead. What do I do, and when is the best time?
    Garrett
    Top Answerer
    Do not play dead. This "tip" from the Phone Guy is meant to mislead players. Playing dead instead of reacting immediately will earn you a jumpscare.
