Description

Don’t miss this pulse-pounding collection of three novella-length tales that will keep even the bravest player up at night . . .
A dark bridge to the past . . . Dirk sets out on a long-shot quest to recapture a cherished childhood memory from a unique animatronic pizzeria. Mandy finds something lurking in the files of her favorite horror game and opens herself up to a haunting. In light of her son’s fascination with Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, Sylvia buys her son a unique birthday present—a Freddy Fazbear mask that’s the genuine article . . . in more ways than one.

In this twelfth volume, Five Nights at Freddy’s creator Scott Cawthon spins three bonus novellalength stories from different corners of his series’ canon. These tales may have ended up on the cutting room floor while developing the Fazbear Frights series, but they bring no less terror in the telling.

Readers beware: This collection of terrifying tales is enough to unsettle even the most hardened Five Nights at Freddy’s fans.

    Don’t know why the “Felix The Shark” story was cut from the series, but I understand why the other two were.

  • Great scrapped book! (SPOILERS)

    I read this whole thing in one day, and I can honestly say that I’m sad that this series is at an end. However, I’m certainly looking forward to the new Pizzaplex stories! These stories were pretty nice. While they were not the best, they still have memorable moments. POSSIBLE SPOILERS INCOMING Story #1: Felix the Shark This was a decent story. It wasn’t the best by any means, but it was worth a read. I like the mystery of where Felix was located, and I also like how much of Dirk was fleshed out. However, I can’t help but feel that the novel mentioned in the book makes the ending quite predictable. I also don’t understand how people are alright with letting their children swim in a tank with an animatronic shark. Plus, the pacing of the story felt a little slow at parts. I still enjoyed this story, though. It had a pretty chilling ending, and the irony was all too real. I’ll give this story a 7/10 rating. Story #2: The Scoop This was sort of a strange story. It was honestly a tad confusing at many moments. There wasn’t really any part that sparked my interest greatly. Some parts with Stevie were kind of confusing as well. That being said, I like Mandy as a character. I think she sounds really relatable for a lot of kids today. Plus, some parts of the story were actually quite sad, like how Mandy breaks down from her loneliness and how she tries to envision her brother as still being alive. Then ending was pretty sweet, as well. I’ll give this a 6/10. Story #3: You’re the Band This was certainly the best story in the book. There are parts of this story that can actually be terrifying for a parent to endure. Some of the actions of the son were actually interesting. I found it nice to see a nod to Mike Schmidt from the games. I like how the son kept acting as though he was with the missing children from Freddy’s. The only real problem I have with this story is that it felt rather rushed at the end. I felt like the big finale could have been up to fifteen pages long, not just crammed in the last seven pages. Even so, I give this a 9/10. Well, now I just have to wait until July to try out the new FNaF series. Fazbear Frights has been such a blast to go through. Thanks for reading!
