That's pretty cool... here's a 30 paragraph summary of the fnaf lore!

1. The Beginning: Fredbear’s Family Diner

The story begins with Fredbear’s Family Diner, a small restaurant featuring animatronic mascots. Owned by business partners William Afton and Henry Emily, the diner laid the foundation for Fazbear Entertainment. The animatronics were designed to entertain children but also concealed darker secrets.

2. The Tragedy of the Missing Children

One of the pivotal events in FNAF lore is the “Missing Children Incident.” William Afton, a serial killer, lured five children into the backroom of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza while dressed in the Spring Bonnie costume. He murdered them, and their spirits went on to possess the animatronics.

William Afton’s family plays a significant role in the series. His children—Michael, Elizabeth, and an unnamed youngest son—are deeply affected by his actions. Each member’s story intertwines with the tragedies surrounding the animatronics.

4. The Bite of ’83

The Bite of ’83 is a critical event where the youngest Afton son was fatally injured at Fredbear’s Family Diner. His brother, Michael, and his friends placed him too close to Fredbear’s mouth as a prank, causing the animatronic to clamp down on his head.

5. The Bite of ’87

Another infamous incident is the Bite of ’87, where an animatronic bit a staff member’s frontal lobe during a pizzeria shift. The identity of the animatronic responsible remains a mystery, though Mangle is often suspected.

The spirits of the murdered children possess the animatronics, turning them hostile at night. They mistake adults for William Afton and seek vengeance, leading to the events of the first game.

Elizabeth Afton is drawn to Circus Baby, one of her father’s creations, despite being warned to stay away. Circus Baby, programmed to capture children, kills Elizabeth, and her spirit becomes trapped inside the animatronic.
