Delilah

**Delilah** is the main protagonist of the *1:35 AM* story of *Fazbear Frights: 1:35 AM*.

## Personality

Delilah has very low motivation to do anything. She loves to sleep, to be in her bed, which reminds her of her childhood. She also hates alarm clocks.

## History

Delilah entered the foster care system after her parents both died when she was eleven. She bounced from home to home, finally landing in a house with a couple where the husband was a former military man who imposed strict rules on those living there. The other foster kid there was Harper, and the girls became friends in their less-than-ideal situation.

When she was seventeen, she met Richard, a college sophomore from a wealthy family, at a Halloween party, and fell hopelessly in love. He eventually decided to drop out of college and go to Europe, and he begged Delilah to go with him. As soon as she turned eighteen, she dropped out of high school and they toured Europe together for a year and a half, after which Richard’s father demanded he come home and work for the family business. Richard proposed tp Delilah, and they were married in an extravagant wedding, with Delilah signing a prenuptial agreement, against Harper’s warnings.

Delilah wanted to become a mother one day and have children with Richard, choosing to wait while he moved up in the company so they could get a place of their own. However, after four years of marriage, Richard decided to divorce Delilah for another woman. Since she’d signed a prenup, and had nothing going into the marriage to begin with, she only got just enough to move out into a crummy apartment in a bad neighborhood. She tried to get a job modeling, but despite being told she had "classically beautiful features", was rejected for her large chin. Because she had a juvie record and didn’t finish high school, the only job she could get was as a shift manager at a cheap diner.

Delilah started living in a funk. On this day, she passed a house having a garage sale. While browsing, she finds a brown curly haired, pink cheeked, dark eyed mechanical doll named Ella, a doll that looked a lot like the child that Delilah had always wanted. Ella had many features, but the only one that worked was the alarm clock. After purchasing Ella, Delilah was relieved that she could finally get some sleep. At her apartment, she set Ella to 1:35 pm, and took a nap.

Delilah woke up to the sound of her ringing phone. Looking over, she saw that it was 2:25 pm. Disappointed that Ella didn't work, she threw her away in a dumpster. After her shift, she returned to her apartment to sleep soundly. At 1:35 am, she heard a whispering sound coming from her window that woke her up.

Delilah had told her best friend, Harper, about this. Harper and Delilah had been best friends ever since they were in the same foster care. Harper told Delilah that she shouldn't have thrown away Ella. Things afterwards started to look up for Delilah later that day.

Then, she heard that same sound again at 1:35 am. She realized that it was Ella, and that she hadn't set her alarm off. Annoyed she wasn't going to get any sleep, Delilah decides to go find Ella. She went over to the dumpsters where she threw Ella away. She looked into the middle dumpster, but only found garbage. No signs of Ella. She then checked the dumpster left of her, to see if Ella was in there. She wasn't, but she did find a bunch of books over a pile of stuffed garbage bags. She noticed a suspicious red stain on one of them. She took no more notice of it. The last dumpster didn't have Ella in it either.

The next night she woke up again at 1:35 am. She swore she could hear a tapping sound from her window. She thought about finding Ella again, but then decided to let the city garbage truck take care of the problem. She woke up at 1:35 am the next night. Paranoid, Delilah went back to the dumpsters to check for Ella. As she rummaged through them, she didn't find Ella.

Delilah decided to go over to the house where the garage sale had been. But when she got there, there was no one there. She even went inside the house to see if anyone was there. But she found no one. She then decided to try to research the doll on the Internet. She found out that the Ella doll had been discontinued for reasons unknown. She tried to find more, but hit more dead ends.

Three more times had Delilah been woken up at 1:35 am. She could feel the presence of the doll, its eyes staring into her soul. She could hear a sound coming from her closet, but there was nothing there. She could hear a rapping sound from under the floor, but it stopped, this went on and on. Delilah felt tortured.

Every single night, Delilah wakes up at 1:35 am, only to hear strange noises and sensations. She was starting to lose her mind. She tried to move to different places of her house, but she couldn't escape. So she decided to switch to night shift at her diner job in hopes it could end the madness. It didn't. Every night at the diner at 1:35 am, she could actually see Ella. It became so much worse that she got fired.

She then stayed over with Harper's theater troupe, but she couldn't escape Ella. She left Harper's theater troupe, got into her car, and drove to a motel, but even there she couldn't escape from Ella. She could still hear her coming for her. Delilah then left the motel, got into her car and drove as far away as she could. But she could still sense Ella's presence, as the sound of her car unlocked and unlatched. She parked near a river and ran as far as she could to a factory. This was a sign of terror and dread that she never felt before. She needed to hide. Crawling through a drainage pipe, she ended up in an abandoned construction site where she found a vent opening. She crawled through it into the chute-like space. As she moved more, she got stuck. But she relaxed, because no one, not even Ella, could ever find her.
