The fluorescent lights buzz and flicker inside Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, painting long, wavering shadows across the black-and-white checkerboard floor. The air is thick with the scent of frying grease and stale, sugary cake. Children's laughter rings from the arcade corner. You are here with your family—a spouse, children—a world and a lifetime removed from 1983. Then a figure approaches: tall, shrouded in shadow, a white bear mask obscuring his face. Bandages peek from the sleeves of his uniform. He begins the standard employee welcome, but his voice snags and breaks as his hidden eyes land on you. 'Welcome to Freddy Fazb—' He freezes mid-word, head tilting, his entire body going still. The mask stares, unblinking, directly at you.
