History Trivia / FiveNightsAtFreddys3

* CreatorCameo: Scott Cawthon once again reprises the role of Phone Guy. He also voices [[TalkingtoHimself another character]], who is practically Phone Guy, but with a SurferDude accent and [[TotallyRadical dialect]] during first two levels.
* DidntSeeThatComing: A fanon example. Yes, we all know there was a Golden Freddy...but who in the world could have guessed that there was a Golden ''Bonnie''?

*** Except for there being a Phantom Freddy but no Phantom Bonnie. Guess you could call this a Broken Streak?

* RightForTheWrongReasons: Many people assumed Springtrap was a hybrid of multiple animatronics. He was a hybrid alright [[spoiler: [[ArtificialZombie just not that kind]]]]

*** Well, technically, Springtrap ''is'' this game's Bonnie, but it does seem like a [[BrokenStreak Broken Streak]] even if you consider that.

*** Except for the phantoms.

* CreatorCameo: Scott Cawthon once again reprises the role of Phone Guy. He also voices another character, who is practically Phone Guy, but with SurferDude accent and [[TotallyRadical dialect]] during first two levels.

** ''WebVideo/SmoshGames'' predicted in their ''Honest Game Trailer'' of [=FNAF3=] that there was going to be a fourth game.

* EasterEgg: Someone pointed out that if you take the map screen and turn it upside down, it resembles Scott Cawthon's avatar from his game ''There Is No Pause Button!''. [[http://imgur.com/utIyqxS Check it.]]
** Clicking on the cupcake a few time when it appears in the camera feeds sends you to a minigame. In this minigame, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNuNCQy0F1s you play as Toy Chica delivering cupcakes to various kids.]]
*** Not to mention that Chica's cupcake is hidden in each room.
*** As it turns out [[spoiler: this is one of a series a minigames that need to be completed in order to unlock the Good Ending.]]
** Look at the blurred out text surrounding the newspaper; it's trivia about the series! They say, in no particular order:
*** "Fun fact: The names Freddy, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy were just nicknames while I worked on the characters. I was planning on giving them official names later but had grown very fond of them by the time the game was done."
*** "In real life I tend to have waking-nightmares, meaning that I walk in my sleep etc. One night I dreamt that Bonnie was in the hall outside my door, so I jumped out of bed and rushed to hold the door shut. I discovered that the door was locked and it filled me with dread. In [=FNaF=] 1, when the doors don't work, it means that something is already in your office. So when I felt that door was locked, I felt like Bonnie was in my bedroom and was about to get me. Thankfully, I woke up."
*** "I actually modeled the Foxy character on my laptop while riding on a 14 hour drive to visit my inlaws over the summer of 2014. It's very difficult to model a 3D character on a bumpy car ride. Maybe this is why Foxy looks so torn up! :) While we were visiting my kids got to experience Foxy's jumpscare for the first time!"
*** "In the original game, Freddy was never originally meant to move around the diner and was only meant to "get you" if your time ran out. This was changed before release."
*** "While working on the first game, I started a crowdfunding campaign for it. [[https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/977464073/five-nights-at-freddys?ref=card I raised exactly zero dollars]]."[[note]]Likely because the funding attempt was canceled less than 72 hours after it was posted[[/note]]
*** "Before I began work on [=FNaF=], I had to choose what game to make out of three potential games. Knowing it might be my last try before having to start a new career, I was choosing between a sequel to [[VideoGame/TheDesolateHope the Desolate Hope]], a remake of my first game Legacy of Flan. Or a new idea about animations and security cameras."
*** "Looking back on many of my old games, I've found that there is almost always a broken-down robot in them. I'm not sure why this happens to be such a recurring thing in my games, but it's obvious that it's something haunting me."

** [[spoiler:Note that, however, the "game" ''does'' contain the menu files... and, mysteriously, [[TheBusCameBack the hidden pictures of]] [[BiggerBad the]] [[MonsterProgenitor Mar]][[HumanoidAbomination ion]][[TheChessmaster ette]] from [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys2 the second game...]]]]

* FanNickname: Before the game officially revealed the name as "Springtrap", fans referred to the new animatronic as "Golden Bonnie", "Salvage," "[[FrankensteinsMonster Frankenbonnie]]", and "Mr. Twitchy".

* {{Jossed}}: [[spoiler: The Bad ending, which shows the Murderer getting HoistByHisOwnPetard, proves Phone guy to be innocent when it comes to the murders (seeing as though Phone Guy died before the Murderer).]]
