Five Nights at Freddy’s Books in Order

If you’re anything like me, you latched on to the Five Nights at Freddy’s video game franchise while watching Markiplier play it on YouTube. This video game series took off, and for great reason. It’s an incredibly fun horror game with a simple idea in mind: don’t get caught.

What are the Five Nights at Freddy’s Video Games About?

Five Nights at Freddy’s (FNAF) is a survival horror video game series created by Scott Cawthon. The player character takes on the role of a nighttime security guard working at the fictional Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza, where the animatronics come to life and try to kill you by stuffing you into an animatronic suit.

The player must survive five nights while managing limited resources, such as security cameras and lights, to avoid being killed by the animatronics. Each night, the game gets harder as you try to survive.

To pay homage to the original game, I absolutely had to include the video game order in case you wanted to play the games first. Honestly, this is a simple game, but that is what makes it scarier in my opinion.

There are also a variety of fan games that are very well-loved. But, for this post, I just wanted to focus on the canonical games as much as possible.

Also, if you want to watch me play through this, I have a stream of me playing it over on YouTube.
