1989
W…Where am I?
It is so dark, I can't see anything…But I can still think, somehow. This place is familiar, but I can't…Ah, of course. I remember now. Those bloodthirsty children couldn't let go…But I guess I only have myself to blame. I should've found a better way out instead of doing something so stupid…Thinking quickly was never one of my strong sides. And now I'm dead with my soul becoming of them…How pathetic.
I can't move, even if I try…There's simply too much pressure, this body, it's…I can't control it; its programming doesn't allow me to. Someone sealed the room, as well. Strange, I would expect them to take me back to Hurricane and that hellhole…And, of course, I can't speak. My voice box is shut off. I hope it's not too late yet…I will get out of here, whatever it takes. I'll find you, Elizabeth, and we will be free…I know that.
I guess I now know how you felt, old friend. It's not quite like I imagined…It's far worse.
…
Hi, daddy…
I know you can't really hear this, but Mommy said that if you think about someone very much, they can sense it…I am thinking about you, Daddy. I hope you're doing well and that you found what you wanted and defeated all the bad guys…I know you can do it.
Today was the day when you said you'd come back, but…I feel you might be a little late. It's okay…I'm not upset. You're doing something very important, right? It takes time, I know. I thought maybe you'd like to know how I'm doing…
I'm alright, kinda. The kids in here don't talk to me too much; most of them are very shy, but I don't blame them…It's horrible living without mommy and daddy. There were some men coming in a few months ago and asking me questions about you, but I did everything like you said I should! I said that I didn't know anything about you and that you died…I wanted to cry and pretend that I was very sad, but…I didn't have to pretend in the end. I am protecting you, Daddy, as we agreed.
Take your time, I know you need it, but…If you would come a bit later today, I will be very happy.
…
1990
I can hear them!
Somebody is outside, walking all around the bloody place. Is it Fazbear Inc. employees or looters? I hope it's the latter; at least they can be reasonable…This place must have been abandoned. I've done a good job back there, didn't I? I hope Alison chokes on his failure, a crying shame that I won't be able to see his reaction to his company dying right before him…I want him to suffer, and I will make him suffer when I…
No, no, they're leaving! I can hear them walking towards the exit. Wait! They haven't found the secret room yet, come back! I am here, I'm still here, I…Why doesn't it work?! Just a single sound, just a single one, PLEASE!
…
Hi, daddy…Can you hear me? I know you can't, but I wanted to talk, so…Can you pretend to listen for a moment?
I don't want to be selfish, but…I really miss you, Daddy. It's been more than a year, and you still haven't returned, and I worry! I see things when I sleep, very scary dreams, just like those Chris saw. I see the animatronics being very scary, and they try to hunt me…Sometimes you're there to protect me, but sometimes I see you run away…And you just leave me there. I am scared. Sometimes I wonder if…No, no, I shouldn't think about this.
I told some other kids that I was hoping Daddy was still alive, and they said I was stupid for it. They think I'm naive, and maybe I am, but I know you're alive and that you care! So, daddy…
Please come back to me.
…
1991
I wonder where are all those children now…I hope they're rotting in hell.
Who are they to take out their anger on me like this? What gives them the bloody right to be so gleeful at watching someone else suffer? They might be children, but it doesn't mean they are not scum! We might both be Alison's victims, but at least I am now striking back at him. What have they done? Tried to sabotage me because I happened to be nearby, and they had too much anger to contain.
You can hate me all you want, but in killing me…You are also forcing my daughter to wait for longer. She is innocent, unlike me or you; she has done nothing wrong! She's a child just like you, and she wants to live! Isn't that the same thing all of you want? Why are you quiet? Have nothing to say in response?! Cowards…
Maybe Gron was right to off you.
…
I'm going to school again, dad…I even talk to some of my friends, and it's going alright, though I still miss you…They ask me questions about you, and I just…I just don't know what to say.
You aren't coming back to me…Aren't you?
Why, dad…Why? You promised me that you'll come back, that you'll tell me everything and that…That we'll be together again! But you just left, and now I don't know what to do…It's lonely here and in the school, too.
I tried not to think about it, but…What if you got killed? No, you won't, you're my dad, you're…You wouldn't, I…I don't want you to die! But if you're not dead…Does this mean that you left me? Did you find yourself another lady to be with? Did you find you want to start a new family? If it's true, I…I understand you just want to be happy, but…Why did you not take me? Was I a bad daughter? I don't understand…Please, Daddy, I would be a good girl, I promise!
…
1992
I should've been smarter, I should've been smarter…
What kind of fucking idiot thinks that a spring lock suit is a good place to hide…Maybe that's what they wanted from the beginning. To lure me in here and see me suffer, certainly right up their ally…I should've run. Afraid of ghosts and some light burns…Jesus, how pathetic. At least no one else has seen it…Well, except the souls. Hope they had their fun…Fuck, fuck…It's been a long while; I've lost the count of time…
I know I don't deserve your kindness, our Heavenly Father, but my girl does…Until I get out of here, please, keep her safe…I beg of you.
…
It's been a while, dad…But you still didn't come back.
I didn't want to think about this, but I just couldn't help it. You know, I think I understand something very important…It's not my fault, dad! I don't know why you left and what you are doing now, but I know I've been a good girl! I always helped you, always gave you the time you needed, and always believed your promises even when you lied to me! I did everything, and I deserve to be with you. I deserve your care! I am tired of waiting; I was so good, and you, you…I hate you, Dad!
…
1993
It's been so long…
It has been so quiet. No one came here for a long, long while. I know it's past the time I promised to come back to her…I'm sorry, Elizabeth. I know you won't hear me; I know that you are probably wondering where I am…God, you're all alone. I promised to come back, I promised to be with you, I wanted, I…I broke another promise. Perhaps you're even angry…And you would be right to be.
You deserved a better father. The one who doesn't run off trying to be a hero like this…But I will come back. I know I will. Someone will find this place sooner or later, someone will free me, someone will find this place, and then I will find you…And I will never leave you this time.
Never.
…
Why do I still care?
I want to forget and focus on something else; I know you left me and will never come back, but…When I wake up, I still sometimes think about you. When I go to sleep, I think about you. I think about you coming back, hugging me, and…Just being here. It helps me to have better dreams…But then I wake up and realize you're not here and will never be here, and I just feel so…Empty.
But I think I better without you, Dad. I'm not a little girl anymore, and…I know you weren't a good man anyway. You killed people…You killed children. You were a murderer! I'm safer without you, yes…I know it!
I know…
…
1994
I am tired…
I am not sure if anything around me is even real, those walls and ceiling. I don't even see them anymore. It's just…Dark. Very dark. I didn't think about this for a while, but it feels strange not to sense my own body. It's just…Like I am a soul. I don't have arms, legs, eyes, just this…Image before me. It's just nothing, and I am a part of this nothingness, as well.
Maybe this is what the hell really is…People want to see it as a place of constant pain and torture, fire and brimstone…But this pain would be salvation. I would prefer it to be so…Instead, I am alone in the darkness…And I just think. And getting all the more tired.
Perhaps I should surrender to it…
…
I found new friends recently…They are goths, and they are really cool! They tried to start a band, and I decided to join in…Shouldn't you be happy for me, Dad? Do you ever think about me at all?
I think you would've found it funny. I tried to be a goth, too…You know, more of a tomboy. I even had a short haircut for a while, can you imagine? It was as silly as you probably think it is…I didn't keep it up for long. I missed my pink dresses way too much…
But I still stayed with them, they're a fun company…I think. Other people are a bit wary of them and say they're up to no good, but they're wrong.
…
1995
I got a little too much sleep today…Clara left already, and I didn't say hello…
Oh, good morning, Chris. Are you up already? You don't have to go to school today, you could've taken a longer sleep…Ah, did you have a nightmare? I'm sorry to hear that…Do you want to talk about it? You don't have to hide it; I promise I won't judge…Come here, give your old man a hug.
Mike, Elizabeth, you're up too? And I thought I was supposed to be the one waking everyone up, huh…Are you doing alright? Good, good, and everyone is relatively free? I think I have an idea. How about a picnic outside? The weather outside seems to be marvelous, and I'm sure we can have a great time. Clara won't be able to join because of her rehearsals, sadly…But she left you all some food. The cupcakes smell delicious! Come on, I'll give you some, and then…Yeah, we can take the rest to our picnic.
It will be fun…It will.
…
I…I wasn't right about them.
Though it's my own fault…God, you wouldn't believe it even if you heard it, Dad. I realized that some of them shoplift occasionally and stead for themselves…They said I should try it out with them this time. I didn't want to do it at first, but they said that I am braver than that and there is nothing to worry about, that we need all those things more than shop owners, anyway. So…Yeah, I fell for it and decided to go along.
And would you guess it, we got caught. The police didn't punish us too much because I guess we're still children, but they took everything back and…It was just embarrassing. My friends didn't care at all, and I was trying hard not to cry…People always tell me I'm too emotional. I realized what I did and felt so bad about it…I still do. Did you feel bad about being a murderer, Dad?
…
1996
No, no, no, not now!
Wait, Mike, Elizabeth, Chris! Please, stay for a bit more; don't leave me, I beg of you! Just a little more, please, you are in the light, Clara, no! I can't, I…I don't want to wake up, I…No, no, no, no, no…NOOO! Not the darkness, please, everything but not the darkness again, stop please, kill me, let me sleep, let me…
Not back there again!
…
I had my first crush this year…He was captain of our football team, very handsome, strong, and sweet as well. The whole team loves him. It's a really cute thing to just…Think about him. You know, imagining myself in his arms, how he kisses me and…Well, those kinds of things. It's very romantic and beautiful.
And he turned out to like me too! I jumped for joy when he agreed to go on a date with him. I was just like Uncle Gron when he was still excited…We dated for a while, and it was as good as it lasted, but…I don't know. I just wasn't ready for it. He wanted to take things further, and I…I didn't want it, and I still don't know why. I like him, I like spending time with him, but every time I think I'm ready to confine him,
I just…Think of him leaving me.
Just like you did, Dad.
…
1997
You will come for her…
I know you fucking will, you never stop, do you, Alison? Even if you didn't care at first, the moment you realize that someone from my family is still alive…You will come for her. You will kill her. You'll make her into one of those…Things. Just like Gron, just like me…I know you would enjoy it; that's the kind of degenerate you are…
But know this: if you dare look in Elizabeth's direction, I will find you. I will kill you…Slowly. I will rip your flesh like paper and tear your hands away from your weak, ailing body. I will hold your remaining eye in this bunny's hand and squash it like a berry…You will lose your arms and legs, that sack that your body will turn into will be covered with open wounds, and your blood will drench the ground all around you! You will beg for me to kill you, and I…I will make it as slow as possible so you can feel what we have felt!
…
I had my graduation party this week…It didn't feel like a party at all. I just sat back and thought to myself. You remember how I loved talking to people, right? Loved to make new friends and always went to other people's parties?
You're lucky you are not seeing me now. I guess you never truly loved me if you left me, but this would make you hate me even more. I didn't make any good friends, and not because I'm too shy…I don't want them to leave me. Not again…How can I trust anyone after this? You were supposed to be here.… Mike, Chris, and Mom too. I hate being alone here, I hate, I hate, I hate it!
I was thankful you didn't kill me when you left…Maybe you should've finished the job.
…
1988
Finally, someone is at the door!
I can see them talking. They realized that there was a room behind this wall. They're trying to get me out now. I knew that they would find me; they wouldn't leave me alone in here. Just a little more…A little more. When I come out, I will find you, Elizabeth, and I will make sure that no one hurts you ever again. I will make up for all the time we lost, I will be the best father I can, I will…I will make you happy.
Wait…Why are they growing quieter…I swear I heard steps just moments ago; I heard voices…They're going silent…No, no, no! Don't abandon me, I'm still here, don't you realize! Let me out, or I'll crush every bone in your body, I will squeeze your lungs, and I…No, I can't hear anything at all, but why? They are there, I know, they are! This doesn't make any sense, it…I do not understand, I…No, don't leave me here, NO!
…
It feels strange to just be out of school…Hooray. I've spent more than ten years there, and now I'm just…Free to decide for myself. I hoped it would feel free, but it just makes me more tired.
I gave some thought as to who I wanted to be, of course. I decided that I wanted to help people, I always liked to listen and give some advice to others…I want to be a psychologist, but I know I can't be one yet. What kind of a helper I am when I can't even help myself? When I'm a mess, who can't even open up to other people? Honestly, I have no idea, and I don't know if this will ever change.
Thanks again, Father. You really did not want to leave me any chance at a normal life, did you?
…
1999
Tick…Tock…Tick…Tock…Tick…Tock…
I can hear them coming and going all around me. They are here…And I am among them. The land where the dead reunite…I feel free…It's all just a bad dream, a very bad dream…And I'm not alone in it. I have my friends by my side. Many loyal friends, the spirits talk to me…
They are a good company.
…
I got into another relationship…But it was worse this time. This guy was so charming; we met at a concert together,
I was head over heels for him. He seemed perfect. Really funny, well-mannered, and a lot of great ideas! I should've realized that something was off about him, no one is too good like.
He got worse once I agreed to a relationship. Ignored me. Was rude and didn't care for my well-being at all…Even hit me a few times, and he had a strong hand. He was so cruel sometimes I was starting to get afraid. Thank god I got out before it could get too bad, but I have bruises now. I just don't understand why men are so…No, no, it's not their fault. I shouldn't generalize.
It's just a few like this one I picked…Do you know what they say about children picking partners that remind them of their parents? What does this say about you, father? Did I just see you in this horrible guy? I don't know…But I wouldn't be surprised.
…
2000
Please…If anyone hears this…I only beg of one thing…
Help Elizabeth…
Save my little girl.
…
I hate it, I hate it, I hate it.
Every fucking time…Do you understand how this feels, Father? To see people with dads who actually care for them? To see people enjoying their families and…Having those who they love by their side? On every street, in every store, and house, I see them and…I'm jealous. I don't want to be, but I am!
I wish I never knew how it feels to have a loving family; maybe it would've been easier to take it that way. But I remember how it was when you were here, father…When all of you were here…I still see you all in my dreams, and I…I just don't want to wake up at those times. It will never be the same without you. I should move on and focus on the future…But I'm not sure if I ever will.

I shouldn't have lied to myself. I shouldn't have been so naive…
I should be sleeping right now and should be focusing on literally anything else, but I can't. I had another dream today; it turned into a nightmare very quickly…Now I won't be able to sleep tonight. I know it's too late and that you will never hear me, but…
Please, Daddy, come back.
I beg of you.
