Five Nights at Freddy's 2 is a prequel to the first game, offering crucial insights into the tragic backstory of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
- The Bite of '87: The game heavily implies that the infamous 'Bite of '87' occurs during your tenure as Jeremy Fitzgerald. The phone calls from the Phone Guy hint at an incident involving an animatronic biting someone's frontal lobe.
- The Missing Children Incident: The Death Mini-Games, particularly 'SAVE THEM' and 'Give Gifts, Give Life', directly depict the murder of children and the spirits possessing the original animatronics.
- The Purple Guy: The purple figure in the mini-games is heavily implied to be the murderer, a recurring antagonist throughout the series.
- The Puppet's Origin: The 'Give Gifts, Give Life' mini-game shows The Puppet giving life to the original animatronics, suggesting its role as a protector or a vessel for a powerful spirit.
- Withered Animatronics: These are the original animatronics from the first Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, brought back for parts. Their damaged state and aggressive behavior are due to their haunted nature.
