the bite of '87

The series namesake, Five Nights at Freddy's, has no confirmed date in the timeline, but fans widely agree that it likely takes place in 1993. Players find themselves in the shoes of Mike Schmidt, yet another nighttime security guard for Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. The game takes place at a different location than that of FNAF2, and the unnamed recorded voice informs players of the animatronics habit of mistaking humans for endoskeletons, leading them to "forcefully stuff" people inside of animatronic suits.
