FNAF Movie Trailer 2 (All Easter Eggs)

[@s_lizz_e7928]

What I believe is that they’re going to pull a sort of “plot twist” with the Afton family. I think that in the movie, Mike and Abby are going to believe that their parents are dead/abandoned them and so at the end/near the end of the movie, there will be a dramatic Star Wars like scene where William reveals himself to Mike and has a whole “I am your father” moment, thus revealing to the audience in a twist that “oh, Mike’s real name is Michael Afton” blah blah blah

[@crazydog4626]

That’s actually pretty smart

[@bluemagma2125]

Look at the cast if fnaf, it says william afton

[@267BR]

[@Miroslava_Ivanova]

My thought yesterday was what if Mike and Abby were adopted and it's their adoptive parents that died. Cause taking kids away from someone who's a suspected child murderer sounds like a good idea or it may have been related to the death of crying child if there's an equivalent of him in the movie

[@countrycoffeecup7772]

Mike Skywalker!

[@XxXK1770rD13XxX]

Surprised I haven't seen more people say this, but I'm pretty sure the animatronics are going to turn out to be good. It will be assumed they wanna hurt Abby, but in reality they think they're keeping her safe from William.

[@tessfabled4115]

That was my first thought upon watching the trailer too!

[@stqryz]

honestly im surprised as well because they’re possessed by williams victims. they killed tons of guards thinking they were william. so why would they kill a defenseless child if they were in that position once?

[@dominikpatrikmolnar5176]

what creepy af is, i realised that on the fridge the magnets can be only read into two names (they are close to eachother not like the other magnets on the other side) and they are Abby and Afton

[@slimely9758]

I dont think theyre actually after abby. I think thats what the police officer thinks, but after seeing freddy holding her hand, i think theyre actually trying to protect her from mike who they see as a threat, which she probably doesn't realize

[@vinnyl264]

Would be curious if maybe it’s the thing where they think he’s William because it’s Been said that he looks a little like William in the games and books. Like maybe the animatronics don’t realize that time has passed and think mike is william

[@Whhatt]

But I actually think that the freddy holding the hand of Abby is actually his brother or dad idk because the kids that got possessed by animatronics were wearing outfits from the same color and the shirt of the dad or brother was blue and the eye of the freddy was blue also Abby wasn't afraid being close to the freddy because she know who the freddy is(his dad or borther) so all of this talking to say that the dad or brother purposely killed himself and possessed the freddy animatronic to fight the other animatronics to protect his little sister or daughter idk if that make any sense

[@martinchik3543]

​@@WhhattI believe that Mike will literally become golden freddy tbh (changes a lot cuz Mike gets originally scooped in SL)

[@MadMax-de5uh]

I think William Afton will be in the Spring Bonnie suit going after Abby and we’ll think that the animatronics are the bad guys but they’re actually trying to protect and save Abby

[@Alerths]

@@martinchik3543I agree with you because also in the trailer when it had the scene with the animatronic having some saws in their mouth i think that is going to be their version of the scooper or sum like that or instead of that scene another scene that might prove that case is the scene with mike locked into a chair might also be the room where he gets scooped because it shows the same angle of where the scooper was the in SL. But that’s just a theory, a film theory… plus we will never know if this is true till it releases! :D

[@TheHuskyK9]

Props to Jim Henson's Workshop for making the animatronics look almost exactly how they look in the games. Most movie studios would try to make their own versions of characters that look nothing like the source material, so this is refreshing to see them stay faithful to the games' designs

[@Huttares]

Agreed! They looks so good!!!!

[@Dargonhuman]

They probably saw what happened with Sonic a few years ago and said, "That? We're not doing that..."

[@justinsikora8583]

They look so good I’m so glad they went with Henson workshop because cgi would’ve been hard to look good for the whole movie but they look so damn good!

[@Huttares]

@@justinsikora8583 yeah, and CGI would not have looked authentic. Or as authentic as actual animatronics. This was the best choice!

[@Packrat333]

I feel like the fountain/punching scene is foreshadowing how mike lost his last job before the pizzeria. This would answer the question of “who would work here willingly” someone who can’t work somewhere else do to past incidents at previous places of work. He shows desperation in the beginning “security gaurd? I’ll take whatever you can give me/have” and that’s due to the fact that he might have been in trouble legally making it harder for him to find employment in general! Just my thoughts 😊

[@breakyerface]

Agreed.

[@E4S65]

I was thinking just the same thing. Mike is desperate for a job and probably has a hard time keeping them. I doubt his actions for beating up that guy were fully justified

[@ronnoc841]

I've seen people say the fountain punching scene is mike snapping at someone after they make a snide comment about losing their younger brother to the bite of 83

[@lil_puff4775]

[@lil_puff4775]

⁠@@ronnoc841thats a wild theory but I believe that guy is a child predator and mike snapped cause he was thinking what if that happen to Abby but i can see the guy taunting him by saying comments during the scene which is way mike loses his shit and beats the shit out of him

[@afig1471]

I noticed not a lot of people are taking about the drawing of “Bonnie” in the sand at 4:34. I’m pretty sure that’s a drawing of springtrap before the murders happened. Maybe it’s the last thing the child who possessed foxy saw before he died (I’m guessing he drew it). Also, I feel like foxy’s character is gonna have a lot of importance in this movie. The child who possessed him has had a lot of screen time (especially up close) in these trailers. At least compared to the other kids.

[@geekygal9893]

So first thoughts after watching the trailer. I think William Afton is still William Afton and I think he’s still Mike’s dad. It’s possible that they don’t recognize each other. This could be due to separating at a young age and using a different name. I also think Vanessa is working with William. She knows a little too much about the animatronics, and I think she’s lying about the animatronics. I think the animatronics are trying to protect Abby from Springtrap.

[@texti-animates-sometimes]

YES, I agree with every part except the last part when you say the animatronics are trying to protect, but I think they are luring Abby into Springtrap outside the building which they can then be slaughtered, or maybe your right and the animatronics were TRYING to protect her by helping her outside but then she gets slaughtered by Springtrap.

[@geekygal9893]

@@texti-animates-sometimes that’s possible. I just think it’s out of character for the animatronics to cause other children pain.

[@AGuyintheKitchen]

I personally agree with you. If Vanessa was working with William it would explain how she even knew that Mike was working at Freddy's in the first place, then proceeding to tell him lies about what the animatronics intentions are would have him play right into their hands to have another two victims of the pizzeria

Knowing William's background, he might actually be doing this because he too has suffered from job struggles.

[@darksoul7548]

[@KainCarthyst]

Idk if this was intentional, but Abby's "hello" sounded like balloon boy. Also, when Mike is calling William, they are wearing matching clothes with opposing colors. This could mean that they ARE related, and Mike has just been away so long that he doesn't recognize his dad's voice. Vanessa may have been looking into the other security guards going missing (perhaps William is torturing them with that bladed mask to get remnant) Also the scene where Mike is sad as a car drives away might allude to his brother going missing in the past (he could be golden Freddy which is why Abby and GF are buddies) I think Vannessa will be a love interest considering Mike was by her side at the hospital. Perhaps she follows game Vanessa's plot and gets enthralled to William in the later movies.

[@raion.xiaoshi]

Omg finally someone said it!! Abby's "Hello" had been driving me mad since the trailer came out 'cause I couldn't figure out if it's just similar to BB, or was it a voiceline from an animatronic D:

[@ronniegeddes5072]

I think it's interesting how on the Steve Raglan name plate there is the Career Counselor subtitle. To me this kinda screams that while William is the owner he has created a secondary identity which enable him to work at a temp agency or some other organization that helps to outfit people with employment. The humor of him saying "The owner isn't ready to let go of it" smacks very heavily of his brand in my eyes.

[@ahealthkit2745]

I don't think it's meant to be Afton at all. I'm almost postitive Steve will be a redherring, with Afton being revealed only as Springtrap, and the reveal of his identity coming in the final chapter of the movie.

[@breakyerface]

With as long as this movie has been in production, I would be very surprised if this movie doesn't end with the springlock incident. It would be a great resolving end to the film and will leave room for a sequel. I don't think this movie will give us any new information, but I do think it will be a celebration of the story as we know it to that point. That way, it'll be a great jumping off point for anyone who hasn't gotten into the games to be able to play the first three without having to watch hours and hours of KZbin videos to try and decipher the lore. The best way this movie can serve the franchise as a whole, from a business perspective anyhow, is to create new casual fans and make it easier for them to digest the information without too much digging... much like the Marvel Cinematic Universe. That said, I expect we see a bundled re-release of the first three games when the movie comes out. Not remasters, but perhaps with a little bit of movie branding.

[@chromatic9488]

that would be so cool if it ended with the springlock failure

[@yusifa.9946]

I do agree with the Springlock theory, and I do hope we get a post credit scene with Afton coming back to life as Springtrap. But I don't see how it can help people get into the games, the movie seems like a completley different cannon, I don't think we should compare it to the game stuff. I mean, in reality, we don't even know if the bite's of 83' and 87' actually happened in this universe (they probably did but you get what I mean). For all we know, it might be a bite of 88' or 81'

[@ahealthkit2745]

I don't think Afton is alive in this movie at all. I think he'll be a nefarious force driving the animatronics mad, but won't be revealed until something happens. (personally, I think Michael is going to wind up being stuffed into a suit, becoming the one-eyed Freddy we see at the end of the trailer).

Personally I think Golden Freddy has always had a rather dark shade of gold than the bright one we see in the secret games. Perhaps it‘s also due to the cinematic coloring

[@maro0155]

tbh wouldn't be surprised if it turned out that the scene was slightly color changed for the trailer, in order to still keep golden freddy as a bit of a suprise. its pretty common for movies to edit in some small pieces in the trailers that don't appear /aren't exactly the same in the movie

[@gosilly4890]

It's so nice to see how much your community has grown in the last years

[@Piper_Afton]

Something I noticed that you kind of didn't mention is that the kid in the car right after we see the spirits has a Foxy mask, but ISN'T Fritz. So I'm about 99% certain that it's a younger Michael, and the scene in the forest is a dream (which would partially explain why he can SEE the spirits). Just a random theory.

[@krbraveofficial]

or if we accept the theory that william is still michaels father but they got sepetated somehow (details on the how don't matter) it could be the crying child aka his younger brother

[@HoneyBee-im3ny]

The kid in the car is the actor for a character named Garrett. There is another actor for young Mike. So car kid is Mike's younger brother.

One thing i loved about the first game is how it was hintet that the whole pizzaria was haunted and not only the anamatronics. This is something that sadly was not seen much of in the other games, but i think they might bring that concept back for this movie (because the pizzeria turned on out of nowhere and woke up Mike).

[@martinchik3543]

i also thought it was weird first but when you think about it.. in fnaf 1 there are scenes when you switch to parts n service cam, the animatronic heads start looking at you with black eyes, how tho? some hallucinations or illusions? nope, i think the kids can control every animatronic, whether being a head, or being the endo, like generally paranormal stuff, at least that's how I understand it, and that's how the whole pizzeria turns on by itself too

Seems like we're going off of book lore for this movie, which will be interesting to say the least..

[@Axos_Abode]

Theory on what could happen with Springtrap. It's Willy in his fursuit, and there's a fight, ending with Abby or Mike setting off the spring locks, setting up for #3. Also unless those VA listings were fake, I can see Puppet and BB in a parts & service scene, having some apparent damage to show that they've been used for spare parts, or in a small post-credits scene.

[@RUFITNESS]

Yes! Exactly what I thought. It would pay homage to the original fnaf 3 story and be a really good climax movie wise.

[@fallingupgaming9830]

Little theory: I think that when Vanessa tells Mike that the animatronics want to make Abby like them, she's actually lying. Since obv in the games Vanessa turns out to be Vanny she might still be bad and be lying to Mike for some reason with bad intentions. I mean, she does know that the animatronics are possessed by the missing children and how would she know that? Just my thoughts.

Didn't Scott plan to have 3 movies based off of the first 3 games? Fnaf 2 would probably be more straightforward, similar to fnaf 1. But fnaf 3 has quite a bit of options. They can make it based off of the bad ending or the good ending. They can also go a different route entirely, focusing mainly on the burning down of the horror attraction. It's possible they could make a good ending thing happen where the trilogy concludes with the original 5 children being set free (like how the series was supposed to end when Scott said fnaf 3 would be the last fnaf game) but at the same time they could make the burning of the building force the children free similar to events that occurred in fnaf 6.

So after watching the trailer and seeing the taxi scene again I’ve come up with a theory. What if what we see is golden Freddy pre-vengeful spirit but with the spirit of the crying child inside. That would explain the blue eye as the crying child is never seen as angry or violent. Maybe Abbey is our substitute for Cassidy and the movie will show Abbey die and get put into the golden Freddy suit.

Im pretty sure that scene in mall is going to happen towards the beginning of the movie. Just a guess: Mike starts off with a job as a mall security guard but goes to far in that scene and that’s how he loses his job. Beating someone up while in a fountain is pretty extreme and would require some really serious changes to justify.

[@ProjectPossum]

The scene with Freddy and Chika, it looks like they’re by an open vent and it looks like Chika has an empty plate. I bet she put the cupcake in the vent to break into office.

[@phiaanon]

My small theory is that, Mrs. Afton has divorced William, prior to any of their children dying. Which could explain Elizabeth's empty room and why she wasn't present in FNAF 4 and also can dispel timeline inconsistencies. The scene of a woman driving and leaving with a young boy ( it might be Michael or crying child) it seems in the backseat seems to imply (at least in my perspective) that Michael resided with his father after the divorce, while his younger siblings left with their Mother and visited their Father from time to time. 8:30 also the blue eye could mean that Cassidy's spirit is already inside of golden freddy (might or might not ne golden freddy) Btw, great video

hello john, i have been lurking never commenting on your content for like 2 years and i think that right now is a fitting time to comment sense we have been waiting upwards of 9 years for this moment and it is insane how you have evolved the fist video i watched of your is the times fnaf listened to mark and i remember you making videos like that, then you become a fnaf news channel and now you are the news and coming up with your own theory's that i genuinely belief to be true most of the time, it has been a fun journey

[@tobiletsplay]

2:30 if Markiplier isnt on there i aint watching

[@skyflakes1015]

I don’t think the animatronics will actually be hostile towards children, Vanessa was just misinformed. It explains why golden Freddy is friendly towards Abby in the end

[@originaldankle]

As a horror movie snob, I'm so excited to see this!

[@loganentertainment1814]

I think the movies will either clarify the mysteries that weren't answered yet in the older Fnaf games, or its just a completely fresh start to the the story that Scott was trying to tell us before he considered releasing Fnaf 4. Regardless, I'm SO excited to see this movie, and I have high hopes for it. 😱😀👍

We Have Three Categories Now, The Game Lore, The Book Lore, And Now the Movie Lore, Matpat is going to go Nuts over this.

[@vixjenn]

Alright so, I know this was mentioned in the video but I'd like to provide further insight: Steve Raglan is most definitely William. That's Matthew Lillard right there, he's been cast as William Afton (confirmed). "But how is Springtrap there then?", that's most likely not Springtrap yet, but instead William wearing the withered Spring Bonnie suit. You can actually see his neck/jaw through the suit's mouth if you look closely (7:04). He will probably get springlocked somewhere in the movie, becoming Springtrap.

[@HWHardcoreWrestling2746]

I love the spring trap costume brought to life with the knife makes him look dangerous but what making him even more dangerous is if they give him a AXE 🪓 but still looks good.

[@LuxDraconis]

The whole bit of Springtrap having a knife may seem surprising, but if I recall correctly, he did kill someone in the book that way. I also just feel like it should be a given for a serial killer.

[@K.C.J-M-r1j]

I thought the way Vanessa said that the animatronics would make her "like " is interesting. (Abby, that is.) Depending where the spacing lands or where to empathize you have a new way of looking at it. Are they there as friends? For her to LIKE them? Or are they there to make her LIKE THEM, in a suit? Just something i picked up on, rarely anyone reads my comments but wanted to throw it out there :P Love from Sweden.

[@K.C.J-M-r1j]

Btw, are there any ACTUAL proof that William OWN Freddy's? Could it be that William works as the security guard and his wife is the actual owner? That'd make more sense IF by chance she re-launched the franchise. Due to the fact that the animatronics seem really pissed of at security guards. I have alot of things on my mind regarding the "rebranding" of Freddy's, for me it'd make more sense if Baby was the "glitch" in the VR game and that she'd help her father in security breach, meaning she'd take over Vanny. Also the VR "actually" says (I want to say this due to the fact that I don't have the actual words at hand atm.) something along the lines of, "Don't listen to the rambling of a lunatic game designer" Making it sound like the 3 or even the 4 first games are a unreal version of what had happened. It could be as easy as, Dream theory, with some truth in there. That'd make Sister location have more truth in them, making IT the first "real" version of the history. Maybe William was burnt with Michael. Maybe the 2 security guards we play as are different persons. once more, alot, SERIOSLY, alot of love from me!

[@jadexely]

Firstly, a missed Easter egg would be after he falls asleep and goes to turn the power off you can see “it’s me” written in the mirror next to him. Secondly, I think that William is still mikes dad in the movie he just might not have been in his life. Also I don’t think that the animatronics are trying to hurt Abby. If you look at the scene where her and foxy are looking at the drawings on the wall foxy looks happy till he turns around which makes me think he saw an adult (Mike) and thought of them as a threat

[@sausy798]

Heres a list of thing I believe it's gonna happen in the movie: 1. Animatronics are friendly towards Abby not trying to turn her into one of them. 2. Springtrap/Springbonnie scene is a flashback or some sort of nightmare (meaning they are showing him as for something that happened before the kids disappearing) (If not then that's weird). 3. Scene where Michael was beating a guy at the mall it's probably like the beginning of the movie maybe that's why he's looking for a new job cause he got fired from beating a guy at the mall and maybe that's all he's good at. Being a security guard. (I think lol) 4. Scene of a woman that looked beaten down in a house might be the cop or William Afton's wife I mean like come on you can't hire Mathew Lillard and just make one scene of him sitting down on a desk hiring Michael for the security guard shift pffft! 5. And Number five I've come to the conclusion that I'm probably insane and none of these things in my list makes any sense. Thank you for reading my list.

[@stut2061]

At 1:18 in the trailer, when Mike is about to flip the switch in the office, you can see a mirror on his left with "Its Me" written on it(it's only there for a frame or two but it's towards the top of the mirror)

[@idonthaveone60]

0:13 yeh he was calling toy chica.

[@MirageUchiha]

John, the way you've been growing and supporting Scott and FNAF, there's NO DOUBT in my mind that you WILL be in the sequel! Maybe as a new EotM! 😆

[@spiral5048]

1:28 that voice crack tho lmfao. also nice vid

[@MonkeySirBossMan]

Let’s be honest Williams named steve Springtrap looks goofy as hell and a fully tooken care of arm reaches out of the animatronic

[@TopHat0278]

4:59 i think its going to pull a sliver eyes where abbie will be captured then they will be like "they were trying to protect her"

[@Bamni]

They should have a mattpatt cameo where he enters the pizzeria with detectives like just a random guy and goes "GUYS, I THINK I FINALLY SOLVED THE MISTERY! THIS IS ALL AN ILLUSION" or some lunatic theory and they start taking him away and he's theorising and spilling nonsense as they're taking him away to an insane asylum or something

[@khato111]

0:58 I mean we always took for granted that Mike Schmidt was Mike afton, but is there actual proof?

[@thefancydoge8668]

If you look closely at springtrap, you can see the suit is still yellow and has no blood on it, indicating it's still springbonnie, and William is wearing it still and not trapped yet. So maybe the ending has him get springlocked to set up the 3rd entry.

[@c.b.-]

In the preview we don't see Abby interact with anyone other than Mike. Personal theory is that Mike is being haunted by the ghost of his sister, he's trying to find where she died because until her body is laid to rest she will continue to haunt him.

[@King_Neptune69]

he was beating the guy in the fountain because that was his previous job probably, makes sense why he would need a new one.

[@dr4wform4tion]

What if William changed his name legally or created this whole new identity for himself so he wouldn’t be caught for killing the children, but in doing so after leaving his whole life behind his children specifically Mike couldn’t recognize his own father after all these years even when hearing him over the phone as we see in the trailers when seeking out the job opportunity. Does that sound like that could make sense?…..

[@NickPlaysGames95]

Ok, my theory on why Abby is with Golden Freddy in the taxi. Both trailers show Mike trapped in a suit and the mask slowly approaching it. It would be VERY convenient for him to somehow get out of that, which is why I think he didn't. The suit he was stuffed in was Golden Freddy's suit, so that's why Abby is with him, because Mike is in there. Could definitely be wrong, but that's just my theory.

[@yourbestpallshawn4139]

I’m calling it right now the scene of Mike trying to leave through the door is where we’re gonna see them shut down exactly at 6 am.

[@coffewitgemini9953]

Oh my God you're a genius!!!!!

[@vrt0racle306]

I get that this isn't gonna be 1:1 with the games but Mike not being William Afton's son is such a HUGE change from the games, I kinda doubt that Scott would do something like that, considering that he knows how much we care about this story. A change like that literally changes the whole dynamic between the main character and the antagonist. While the fact that Mike doesn't seem to know much about Freddys concerns me (and tbf, that could just be repressed memories/trauma), I think the fact that Abby and Golden Freddy are friends could possibly be because Golden Freddy is half possessed by her brother. And we know that there is a young Mike cast for the movie who seems to be brothers with the Garrett kid that we see getting driven off in the car. Plus, revealing the Spring Bonnie suit in this trailer is huge so they've gotta save some big lore stuff for the movie and I think that the Bite of 83 flashbacks will be just that. So, overall, having all these family links would feel a little incomplete without William as the father of them all.

[@seagloss1942]

I don’t think that the Golden Freddy at the end is the Golden Freddy we think, but actually Mike POSSESSING him. That’s why he’s with Abby and holding her hand. Near the end we see Mike getting “scooped” by an animatronic with the saw blades, so he could’ve been killed and went on to posses the Golden Freddy animatronic.

[@-_GlitchEy-boi_-]

Bro mike was so desperate that he called up his father for a job 💀

[@danielsantiagourtado3430]

Saw it to the end! and agree with you! the details are so fasninating! and the movie looks fantastic! Can't wait to see it! i'm sure it will be a hit!

[@babyhamstr13445]

I find it interesting in the photo on the fridge that all of them are looking straight ahead (animatronics with red pupils) EXCEPT for Freddy. He has black(?) pupils and he’s looking over at Abby.

[@ehrenmulleanglewoodpecker]

In my opinion Matthew Lillard playing Afton is the perfect cast ❤ He is just so terrifying and creepy 😮

[@IM_Arcades]

I'm sad Mark is missing from the movie because he was busy. He was a big part of all of this. Feels strange he isn't in it..

[@Whhatt]

He might be in it but haven't shown it on the trailer for some kind of surprise

[@erossauro2427]

I hope he appears in the sequel

[@identitymatrix]

7:00 Thought that too especially because Springtrap and the original animatronics did not co-exist in the same timespace. But I think the glowing eyes make it relatively clear that this has to be false. It's an insanely well done shot though. And I also don't think that Steve Raglan is a false name for Will. That would just have been too easy. I'm not sure if Will even has any relevance since originally, the movie only covers FNaF 1-3 where his name is never mentioned anyways.

[@MRPandoraHartDR]

John, it just hit me now out the blue so I came back to your video to share this with you. Midnight Motorist's dirt pile is in a forest. And now in the trailers Mike's seeming visions of the dead children take place in a forest. Which has really got me thinking that dirt pile all along is the grave many have theorised it to be. But a mass one, where William has been transporting and burying the missing children's bodies. Therefore what we see is him revisiting his victims.

[@vanishpipeper3110]

Hope the doctors appointment went well John! We Love You!

[@QuarterCal]

If the phone guy isn't in this movie, we riot

[@KWll18]

I don't think I've heard anyone talk about this, but did they change the eyes? I hated the bright red that they had in the first teaser, but I actually rlly like that "evil" orange they have in this trailer

[@leviklynstra8975]

I cant wait for "FNAF: Into the Freddyverse."

[@HerSandiness]

I kind of think that Vanessa has misunderstood the animatronics' intentions. I think they like Abby and just like to play with her (like Hide and Seek, when she sinks into the ball pit and Foxy sees her). And I think the animatronics misunderstand that Mike doesn't want to hurt Abby. So they wind up killing him and stuffing him into the Golden Freddy suit, or perhaps jusz his spirit takes it over. But then, perhaps some months later, Abby goes back to see her animatronic friends and meets Golden Freddy, with whom she builds a real bond, because it's Mike's spirit in there. But then enter William Afton, who wants to kill Abby.

[@QuarterCal]

That is the best intro I have ever seen!! 😂😂😂

[@Finnie3421]

IM SO EXCITED FOR THIS MOVIE edit: who else is excited?

[@theskullysplaceking8266]

Me I really hope they and some way point to The Afton family kids and wife

[@michaellynes3540]

Markiplier should be on that Employee of the Month wall. He was responsible for predicting the FNAF lore.

[@averystreeter9470]

hope everything went well with your doctors appointment ♥️

[@nevaehh6247]

I dont know if you saw but on Peacock in upcoming movies it gives the description of the fnaf movie. In there it says that Mike is still “haunted by the unsolved disappearance of his younger brother more than a decade ago”. Could this be the kid driving away from him in the car we see in the trailer?

[@Hilo-gk3ix]

One thing I thought about the ending is that maybe it’s Mike based on that scene where he was strapped to the chair and the animatronic face was coming towards him with its saws and such. It could be him “inside” the suit and going home with Abby or maybe just a representation of it? Idk can’t wait until it comes out and we get to see it come together!

[@flarestriker2005]

Or it could be a dream sequence, who knows?

[@flickyfkosstitcher8547]

05:07 The picture immediately made me think of a drawing in The Fourth Closet of the five kids with Spring Bonnie; it's on page 109 of the graphic novel, and is signed by Michael.

[@ljhawesstudios]

I'm really excited for this movie, honestly this will probably be the first horror movie I'm actually going to like and have fun with.

[@Owen01]

Now I’m curious what horror movies you’ve seen if you didn’t like any of them

[@ljhawesstudios]

@@Owen01 I’m kind of a wuss when it comes to horror, I’ll see a snippet of a horror film and I get scared lol. But somehow fnaf is alright, for some odd reason.

[@MoroccanRizz]

​@@ljhawesstudiosmaybe because it isn't too scary?

[@ljhawesstudios]

@@MoroccanRizz kinda, I thought it was kinda scary at first, but 6ish games later I’ve gotten used to what fnaf is and I’m not too scared by it anymore.

[@MoroccanRizz]

@@ljhawesstudios ah i see. When i was like 15 i was very scared when fnaf 4 came out. The same goes for you or?

[@EpicVoiceShitposting]

He really pulled a Markiplier with the outro

[@flyLikeAPhoenixx]

Within the first 15 seconds I feel threatened…. It really is a FuhNaff video! :)

[@jojivlogs3697]

I think it's mistaken that the animatronics wanna make Abby into one of them, I think it's William as Springtrap before he's springlocked however people don't know it's him in there and Vanessa is assuming it's all of them (because William stuffs dead kids into suits) it's interesting cause Golden Freddy has one eye, and probably doesn't have a second spirit yet and if the bite happend that would be one animatronics that isn't stuffed with a kid yet (maybe) If Abby SOMEHOW dies i can see her being the second spirit in him But hey if I'm partly right on any of that I'm happy
