Ten years after tragedy struck at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, Charlotte "Charlie" returns to her hometown of Hurricane, Utah. The abandoned pizzeria where children once disappeared lies entombed within the shell of a failed mall project-buried but not forgotten, just like Charlie's own memories. What begins as a reunion with old friends quickly spirals into something darker when they discover the restaurant perfectly preserved inside its concrete tomb, complete with animatronic characters frozen mid-performance on stage. These aren't just ordinary robots; they're the creations of Charlie's father, a brilliant engineer who took his own life after unimaginable loss. As Charlie and her friends explore the abandoned restaurant, they awaken something that should have remained dormant-mechanical monsters with unfinished business and a night guard whose interest in the restaurant goes far beyond professional duty. The line between the living and the mechanical blurs as Charlie confronts not just the horrors of the present but the forgotten traumas of her past.
