The midnight shift at Freddy’s began in oppressive silence. Michael slouched in the cramped office, eyes heavy, scanning the monitors for the rumored activity he dismissed as nonsense. The animatronics stood still, like mannequins. Then, a flicker on Camera Five. A shadow vanished behind the curtain. Gritting his teeth, he grabbed his flashlight and stepped into the dark hallway, sweeping the beam across the shadows. Suddenly, a hollow crash echoed behind him. Michael spun around, heart pounding, aiming the light at the source.
