History YMMV / FiveNightsAtCandys

* ItWasHisSled: [[BigBad RAT]] exists. In fact, [[DownplayedTrope it wasn't really much of a twist in the first place,]] since he can be found hiding in Vinnie's teaser before the game even released.

* CompleteMonster: [[spoiler:[[AnimalisticAbomination RAT]] was a callous, violent alcoholic in life, until one of his coworkers killed him in self-defense after he tried to strangle him to death for demanding he go home after showing up to work drunk. Since he was playing hide-and-seek with Mary Schmidt at the time of his death, [[NeverMyFault he blamed her for it]] and retaliated by [[RevengeByProxy mutilating her brother in front of her]] and a crowd of people when he possessed his old costume. This results in Mary having terrifying nightmares, which then enters as Shadow RAT to torture her mentally. When Mary became a security guard at Candy's years later, he gleefully attempted to kill her then but failed. After Mary was fired, RAT brutally ripped apart Chester, one of his fellow animatronics, for [[DisproportionateRetribution opening the door to his room]]. He then killed a night guard and got Candy framed for the deed, resulting in the sapient Animatronics [[AndIMustScream being left to rot]] in their old robotics factory. When Marylin, Mary's daughter, arrived at the factory on a dare, he attempts to kill her too. If he gets her, her wounds would be considered those of a bear attack.]]

* HilariousInHindsight:
** An animatronic chimpanzee that's friendly to kids during the day, but hostile to others at night, who also has a connection to a security office with cameras. Oh, and he also plays music. [[WesternAnimation/ToyStory3 Sound familiar?]]
** [[spoiler:A haunted rodent mascot that's kept in a mysterious storage room, just shows up all of a sudden towards the end, and has a disturbing, organic secret beneath his mask. Could RAT have been imported from [[WebOriginal/AbandonedByDisney Mowgli's Palace]]?]]
** A kids' entertainment company has a mascot that's a cat associated with candy, which has fused with a dead child and now hunts the player down. Seems like Candy might have inspired [[VideoGame/PoppyPlaytime Playtime Co.]] [[note]]Granted, Candy Cat herself hasn't attacked the player yet, but surely it's only a matter of time[[/note]]

* UncannyValley: Imagine if the Purple Man's rotting corpse in ''VideoGame/FiveNightsAtFreddys3'' was an animatronic that you'd see regularly.

** In ''[[{{Remaster}} Five Nights at Candy's Remastered,]]'' [[spoiler: Mary fights [[TrueFinalBoss Shadow Candy]], after which a secret cutscene plays, teasing ''Five Nights at Candy's 4'' and formally revealing Forgotten Candy for the first time.]]
* PolishedPort: The Remastered version of the first game is nothing short of amazing. Improved controls and graphics, new (significantly less stiff) voice acting for the Phone Guy, new content and all around just improved. Oh, and, like it's original game, [[DoingItForTheArt it doesn't cost a dime]].

** In 2002, there was this really, ''really'' cheesy comedy-horror flick called ''Terror Toons''. Two of the main characters in the film are named ''Candy and Cindy''.
