History Headscratchers / FiveNightsAtFreddys4

** Considering that his [[SarcasmMode fursona]] is a yellow bunny in a suit, yellow might be his favourite colour.

** The Nightmare Animatronics are ''probably'' actually [[https://freddy-fazbears-pizza.fandom.com/wiki/Twisted_Animatronics Twisted Animatronics]]. They're basically animatronics that take the form of the scariest thing to the victim in a sort of YourMindMakesItReal [[{{Pun}} twist]]. The opposite also applies. So if this is true (which it most likely is since it's one of the only possible "canon" explanations) then the reason why it has a mouth is simply because it's what the child fears the most. The stomach mouth was probably influenced by the kid getting bitten by Freddy since y'know, it's a giant mouth.

* If the Bite of '87 took place at Fredbear's Family Diner, then what happened at the end of Videogame/FiveNightsAtFreddys2 that got the restaurant shut down?

** Fredbear's was very likely open during the events of FNAF2, but not under the Fredbear's Family Diner name. Going back to what we know from Phone Guy's messages (mention of a "sister location" in the third game, his tone reflecting unfamiliarity with the Family Diner establishment in FNAF2, etc.) Fredbear is probably a carry over from the Family Diner days. Whoever owns Fazbear Entertainment bought the rights to the character, and made him the star of a new location. It seems Phone Guy has worked with the Fazbear company since early on, and based on his instructional videos for the springlock suits, Spring Bonnie didn't arrive on the scene until after the buy-out. The Fredbear and Friends show seems to indicate that the franchise grew to be quite popular, introducing the Fazbear Four either here or at a different location. Either that location closed down, or these characters were scrapped to be parts for the Toy Animatronics at the FNAF2 setting. Now, the question is: why would they scrap the main 4, but not the eldest characters? Something must have happened between the glory days of 1983 and 1987, and going by Phone Guy's comments in FNAF2, there is some evidence that Fazbear Entertainment was in a hurry to rebrand itself under a new corporate image.

* Since FNAF2, it has been thought that the Crying Child who would become the Puppet was killed outside of Fazbear's Family Diner. Now that Fredbear is finally revealed, he looks different from the Freddy in the GIVE CAKE minigame. So, here's food for thought: where was the Crying Child killed?

*** Fredbear is a Spring-lock suit right? I would assume that there has to be someway to get access into him, as in his stomach area could be cranked open so you could jump in, wear his bottom half like pants and secure the other half on top of you. The kid was in PnS so he probably saw half a Fredbear or something. Even worse, the terrible thing that he saw in Fazbear's could've been a Springlock failure, or possible the murder of the Puppet

* Sooo, does this mean Golden Freddy from the previous games supposed to be the ghost of the Poor Kid taking the form of Fredbear? If so, then why do you have to deal with Golden Freddy in FiveNightsAtFreddys2 despite the game taking place during the events of this fourth game?

** It's not a nightmare. There may have been a timeskip between minigames and the actual gameplay. Alternatively it's a subtle detail to show that the kid has FalseMemories.
