Biography
Five Nights at Freddy's 1, 2, 3, 4 and Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator
Fazbear Entertainment is a company created in 1983 by Henry Emily and William Afton. It was created when Freddy Fazbear's Pizza was opened during the same year the company was founded (although its predecessor Fredbear's Family Diner was founded earlier, possibly in 1973). It was a successful organization at first until Afton killed five children in Freddy's and one child outside it. A few days later, a teenager stuffed his younger brother into the mouth of the Fredbear animatronic. Fredbear's Family Diner closed down, and Freddy Fazbear's Pizza followed it.
Later, they opened a second Freddy Fazbear's Pizza in 1987, with new Toy animatronics. The restaurant was closed down due to an animatronic biting Jeremy Fitzgerald's frontal lobe off and William killing five more kids.
In 1988, the third Freddy Fazbear's Pizza opened, and did successfully well until 1993, when an employee was murdered, closing it down. William later came back and destroyed the animatronics, but the souls made him jump into the SpringBonnie suit. He experienced a springlock failure, and died.
In 2023, a horror attraction called Fazbear's Fright was opened in an attempt to cash in on the various myths and tragedies surrounding the defunct pizzeria chain. During their search of the run-down pizzeria locations for usable props and decorations, a rotten but still functioning Spring Bonnie animatronic was found and brought to their house of horros. Unbeknownst to them this animatronic contained the corpse of William Afton, now haunting the suit and looking for new victims as Springtrap. It is unknown if Fazbear Ent. was associated with the Fazbear's Fright group any way.
A few days before Fazbear's Fright could be opened to the public, the entire attraction burned to the ground thanks to faulty wiring, but Springtrap manages to escape. Henry, now an old man and aware that his former friend is the culprit behind the Fazbear murders, hears of this and decides to take matters into his own hands, cooperating with the remaining Fazbear Entertainment members to create one last location to end it all. A massive incinerator disguised as a pizzeria to lure out, trap and kill Springtrap, Molten Freddy, Scrap Baby and Lefty, the last of the animatronics he and his partner created, along with Henry himself as atonement for all the suffering he inadvertently caused. With the help of William's son Michael the trap was successful and burned down, ending Fazbear Entertainment.
Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted
Despite Henry's plans of leaving the franchise to be forgotten, the company was re-established yet again some time after his death. Fazbear Ent. hired an indie game developer to make indie games based on the tragedies associated with the brand so they can discredit them and regain their long lost reputation, now that all evidence has been destroyed.
Fazbear Ent. then works with a company called Silver Parasol Games to make a VR game, "The Freddy Fazbear Virtual Experience", to further snuff out any rumors regarding their past. Eventually, instead of working with Silver Parasol they handed development to a different unnamed company, after an incident with one of Silver Parasol's employees called Jeremy resulted in his death. Since they make a DLC later, it seems to have sold well.
Five Nights at Freddy's VR: Help Wanted DLC - Curse of Dreadbear
Eventually, Fazbear Ent. makes a Halloween DLC, titled "Curse of Dreadbear".
Five Nights at Freddy's AR: Special Delivery
They create the "Fazbear Funtime Service" to allow customers to see their favorite animatronics entertain them at home, but "unfortunate circumstances" causes the animatronics to glitch out and attack them instead. With a near millennia long subscription to their service caused by glitches, they must brave the endless sea of malicious machines while the FFS is either completely oblivious to it or pretends to be. Amidst the chaos, an old version of Bonnie was added to the roster of animatronics the players could encounter, but e-mails between Fazbear employees show that it wasn't planned to be there.
