Mike Schmidt is a troubled security guard who starts a seemingly easy overnight gig at Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria, the local family entertainment center after beating up someone in a mall and getting fired from it. And he struggling to take care of his ten-year-old sister Abby on his own, the generally undependable Mike is low on options when he lands this new job to pay the bills, and brings her along to the gig. Mike quickly realizes, however, that the night shift at Freddy's won't be as kickback as he was thinking after he makes a disturbing discovery- that the pizza place's four horrifying animatronic mascots all apparently come alive, moving about on their own as they hunt down and attempt to kill anyone that is still at Freddy's after midnight. Now, Mike and Abby must do everything they can to keep themselves alive through the night. But after local police officer Vanessa Monroe arrives and quickly finds herself thrust into the middle of this terrifying situation, she is able to shed light on the dark history and inner workings of Fazbear Entertainment and its nefarious co-founder William Afton- a man who it turns out is a child murderer, with their ghosts now haunting the animatronic creatures. And now, Mike, Abby and Vanessa must find a way to all work together if they are to have any chance at surviving this increasingly deadly night.
