Breaking + Entering

**Breaking + Entering** is the sixth teaser video for *Five Nights at Freddy's Plus*, uploaded on August 8th, 2021 as celebration for the seventh anniversary *Five Nights at Freddy's*. The video was teased on August 2nd. It has the longest runtime out of every video for Five Nights at Freddy's Plus, and involves the story of The Ghosthunter, an unknown and presumably young delinquent breaking into Freddy Fazbear's Pizza to solve the ghostly mysteries of the rundown establishment.

## Description

The teaser video is about "The Ghosthunter", presumably a child judging by their high-pitched screaming and crude drawings, breaking and entering into Freddy Fazbear's Pizza to investigate the paranormal going-ons in the restaurant, all while recording it for their fake show, "The Paranormal Investigatorz". While from their perspective, the video often interjects with shots from the camera feed of the restaurant. The Ghosthunter investigates the Show Stage, showing a close up perspective of all three animatronics. They then investigate Pirate's Cove, only to find that it is empty. They travel down the West Hall, examining various pictures drawn by children, as well as the rule board, before glancing up at a security camera. The viewpoint switches to the camera feed, showing that Foxy is standing in the hallway as well. Finally, the Ghosthunter goes to the Security Office, until Foxy appears in the doorway. The video then cuts, coming back to show that the Ghosthunter is running away from Foxy. They end up in the Backstage, and notice a worn Freddy suit. They move to get a closer look at it, but are frightened by something, and the suit's head falls off. They move to check the door, catching a glimpse of Foxy, who is standing outside. They hold the door shut in an attempt to stop Foxy from entering the room, but are eventually overpowered. The door slowly opens, and what appears to be the Puppet's mask can be seen. The camera feed cuts again, and when it comes back, the camera has fallen the ground on its side. Foxy can partially be seen in the doorway, but eventually disappears, before the video ends.

## Secrets

As the longest teaser video of all, *Breaking + Entering* is also the one with the most secrets, hidden messages and several other details that, not only expand on the game's story, but also acts as hints for initially discovering the URL of the Help Wanted video.

### Foxy stalking the protagonist

At certain moments in the video, Foxy can be seen hiding in the darkness in all major shots after The Ghosthunter enter the pizzeria, seemingly stalking his prey.

* At 3:20, after the protagonist lowers their block notes with the 4 misteries to investigate, Foxy can be seen in the background, just to the other side of the nearest table; upon flipping their block notes up and down again, he dissapears.
* At 5:32, after the protagonist turns to the side and turns off their ghost detector, Foxy can be seen partially behind Bonnie, on the right side of the screen; only his torso and metallic arm are clearly visible.
* At 6:25, Foxy is hiding behind the subwoofer, his open jaws and teeth being the most prominent features.
	+ However, because of the video compression and low quality, it is nearly impossible to actually see him. Phisnom eventually posted a high resolution of that shot, where Foxy can properly be seen.
* At 8:46, Foxy can be seen under the hallway's light, his metallic legs being the most clear visible part of his body.

### Hidden messages & codes

During certain shots in the video, certain types of hidden messages (either visual or audio) are displayed, concluded by a letter briefly appearing on the top left of the screen; both are hints used to discover the URL of the Help Wanted teaser video.

At the beginning of *Breaking + Entering*, a series of shots will give a preview off all instances where the Hidden messages + codes will occur: starting with the Entrance, to the West Hall, to the Show Stage, to the Freddy Poster in the East Hall, and concluding with Parts and service, where at 0:51 a blank space will appear on the top left of the video, before it cuts out to black.

#### Notice Letter

At 1:59, while the camera focuses on Freddy in Parts & Service, several cut images will briefly appear in quick succession; upon assembling them together, it will form a negative colored letter addressed to an employee of Fazbear Entertainment, chastising them for allowing a camera to be damaged the previous night. This seems to be a reference to the first teaser, Connection Error, as Bonnie is shown damaging the camera in the Dining Hall. The text is as follows:

> "Dear [EMPLOYEE NAME],
>
>
> A handyman has been called in to work on repairs for the surveillance camera that was damaged last night.
>
>
> Our intern has also already ensured the appropriate replacement of sensitive material related to your mistake, a clean video feed archive of "CAM 1B" (The Dining Hall) will be used as substitute for the missing portion of footage left on tape. We would like to remind you that, as current night watchman of the restaurant, you are required to notify us of any documented irregularities during your shift and provide us with the name and timestamp of the footage for prompt review.
>
>
> Keep in mind that although Fazbear Entertainment values the safety and comfort of our staff, we also value our company property just as much. Please make sure to take the necessary steps to prevent accidents like these from repeating in the future.
>
>
> The cost of repairs and maintenance for "CAM 1B" will also be deducted from your next paycheck.
>
>
> Thank you,
>
>
>
> -Management"
>
>

The shot will conclude with a blank space and a mirrored "a" on the top left.

#### Company Memo

At 3:40, a certain gibberish voice is constantly heard during the entire duration of the shot; this can be decoded by reversing and slowing down the audio, revealing it to be a company memo. Here is an approximate transcript of the audio:

> Notice to Staff,
>
>
> Due to the events that have transpired this evening, all scheduled character shows and events are to be put on hold indefinitely.
>
>
> Please limit any and all interactions between patrons and the main cast to only reliable and well-tested performance routines.

The shot will conclude with a blank space and a mirrored "C" on the top left.

#### ASCII Image

At 5:45, while the camera focuses on the Entrance gate closing down, a vertical line of constantly changing letters will scroll from right to left; upon stacking all of those together in a single image and mirroring it, it will reveal an ASCII image, displaying something currently not defined; on the bottom several letters will compose the phrase "WAKE UP". Additionally the letters together will quote an extract of "*THE MASQUE OF THE RED DEATH*" a short story by Edgar Allan Poe.

The shot will conclude with a "H" and a blank space on the top left.

#### Maintenance Checklist

At 7:40, while the camera focuses on the Freddy's poster, the mirrored timer on the bottom right will start displaying several letters in quick succession; upon mirroring each letter and putting them in a row (and formatted properly), it will reveal what looks to be a maintence checklist for the animatronics:

The shot will conclude with a mirrored "z" and a blank space on the top left.

#### Suspicious dialogue

At 8:34, while the West camera rotates to the right toward Foxy, several mirrored lines of text will quicky appear on the screen; upon mirroring and putting them in sequence, it will reveal a dialogue between two people, presumabily a child and an adult:

> C: The party is over. Mommy is going home.
>
>
> C: I need to find her.
>
>
> A: Do you know when she'll take you back here again?
>
>
> C: I do.
>
>
> A: Do you really want to go home?
>
>
> C: I don't. What about you?
>
>
> A: Sometimes, i wake up during the night and watch them run around.
>
>
> C: But they aren't moving.
>
>
> A: Not right now, They will move later.
>
>
> C: Wow! Do you like, stay over all the time?
>
>
> A: I used to, but not anymore.
>
>
> C: I wanna see that!
>
>
> A: But don't you want to watch them sing one more time?
>
>
> C: I don't know.
>
>
> A: Don't worry. I'm from here, you won't get into trouble.
>
>
> C: What should i do?
>
>
> A: We can play games together, like Hide and Seek!
>
>
> C: That sounds like fun!
>
>
> A: It is fun, but i need your help for this.
>
>
>
> A: Follow me. (colored in ominous red text)
>
>

The shot will conclude with a 6 and a blank space on the top left.

#### URL

At the very end of the teaser, while Foxy face is in the background in darkness, the mirrored text "?v=" can be seen in the top left, that being the fixed beginning of a Youtube video's URL, and the major hint of a hidden video existing; it will then dissapear together with Foxy.

### Other

* At 2:07, a figure can be seen entering Parts and Service, emitting a strong interference sound while doing so: very few characteristic elements are recognizable, besides having a vaguely humanoid figure and black-and-white stripes. Additionally, if the recording speed isn't altered in some way, it's implied that the entity is moving at a VERY fast speed. It was most likely Foxy running.
* At 5:36, Chica did actually moved by a little, which is more easily observed when using the "LET'S EAT!!!" writing on her apron as reference: initially the shadow barely covers the upper "T", but after the Ghost Hunter turns to face her again, the "T" is almost fully covered in the dark.
* At 12:10, after the ghost detector begin to play "*goodbye to spring",* the CCTV camera in Parts and Service is turn on.
* Foxy's initial absence from the Pirate Cove clues into the idea that this video takes place after *Night Mode*, which depicts Foxy escaping the Pirate's Cove.
* A lot of the paranormal disturbances that happen within the video mimic hallucinations from the original Five Nights at Freddy's, including the poster of Freddy ripping his head off (at 7:54), and the spare animatronic heads staring into the camera.
* The worn Freddy suit in the Backstage is a reference to the game over screen from the original Five Night's at Freddy's, and likely contains the body of a former guard. This is further emphasized by the eyes on the suit, which seem to be human eyes.
