* A fairly popular theory that has sprung up is the idea that Ballora is possessed by the ghost of William Afton's unseen wife, with the main evidence in support of the theory being her more human like nature than even Circus Baby who is confirmed to be possessed by Elizabeth Afton as well as the fact that she seems to be more aware about the flaws in the Ennard plan then the other animatronics, which is something that an adult would be more familiar with than a child or a robot.

The fact that the books are so much more seemingly fantastical than the average installment of the series, where the supernatural elements are either built up over a long period of time or else kept [[MagicAIsMagicA fairly low-key and straightforward]], has lent itself quite well to wild speculation about what any of it means; between this and the confusion over which stories take place in the games' timeline, which take place in the books' timeline, and which take place in their own timeline entirely, the series has fans more confused than ever before about how to fit the new information into the existing lore. The fact that Scott has explicitly stated that these books are the key to understanding the mysteries of the previous games has only added fuel to the fire.

* The fact that Jake's dad is named Evan, and that said dad has a brother named Michael, became a major point of attention for the fandom when, barely a month after Volume 6 was published, [[https://www.reddit.com/r/fivenightsatfreddys/comments/lb6tqg/the_possible_identity_of_1983s_bite_victim/ new evidence was found in the Logbook]] (after ''three years'' of searching) possibly confirming that "Evan" might be the name of [[VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys4 the Bite Victim]], who is generally agreed to be the younger brother of Michael Afton. This revelation has thrown the fandom into an absolute frenzy over what the parallel (which is even further strengthened by [[NoSocialSkills the book's description]] [[MachineMonotone of Uncle Michael]]) is meant to mean, if indeed it means anything.

* With no explanation given for what he is or where he came from, Yenndo's origin and purpose is ripe for speculation. Theories proposed so far include him being the "[=Anim05=] [=OOS=]" mentioned in the schedule teaser, a prototype of Funtime Freddy, or the endoskeleton belonging to the springlock suit from Night 4. The most accepted fan theory is that he is actually the endoskeleton of a Funtime Version of none other than Fredbear/Golden Freddy, due to his yellow eyes, name, and mysterious abilities.
* Some have theorised that Night 2's map and the images of the Child's room and the Fredbear plush with a walkie talkie in the Private Room are a sign that the events of ''4''[='=]s gameplay were not only RealAfterAll, but also monitored by Mr. Afton/the Purple Guy from the Private Room as some bizarre secret experiment, despite nothing prior ever indicating any of this was the case.
* Continuing from above, people have compared the Twisted animatronics from the books and the Nightmare Animatronics of ''4'', and [[BroadStrokes noticed that they are surpringly similar]]. It's speculated by some that the Freddy plush walkie talkie was used to send the Twisted's BrownNote that then caused the kid to see toys and animatronics as monsters.
