Removed Five Nights at Freddy's Content 

1:10 fun fact: this wasn’t a scrapped idea! Scott intentionally removed or replaced all evidence to the existence of foxy in all promotional material. This was so players wouldn’t have the whole game spoiled for them, something he said he missed from the pre-internet days of gaming.

Freddy DOES look at the camera which may be the thing people could be confusing this for. It's rare but, it can happen but, as far as I know it's only Freddy

the unused glass pressure sensor voice line is actually terrifying, considering that would mean something is pushed up against the glass watching you

For the “ mandela effect “ all the animatronics looking at the camera was in the original trailer in the game so yes people have seen it

Personally, I think Mangle’s hook being absent was an intentional design choice to “child proof” the animatronic due to it constantly being played with by children. There’s also the phone guy line about Mangle being made to be more kid friendly to entertain the toddlers. Probably one of the few times the company took a somewhat smart safety precaution lmao.

I think Scott never really thought about the lore in fnaf 1 as other than "a guy kills 5 children in a pizzeria" and in fnaf 2 as "yeah the guy actually killed like 6 more children already previously in different pizzerias of the same company". up until when he started developing fnaf 3 I think he realised that he could make the lore something so complex and divine than it is right now

I feel like Security Breach was a game that was completely different at one point, but was scrapped and completely remade in favour of what we have now. Cut voice lines, cut dialogue, cut missions, cut locations, it all adds up to a game that was most likely wildly different to what we have today. And I would LOVE to see that older version, because it's- probably better than what we ended up getting.

*Fun fact: The “unused” closeup of the Puppet IS actually used in Fnaf 2, as a rare event.*

FNAF has so many unused content and I find it so cool that there’s a lot to it, because it helps us know what Scott was thinking while making these games

For anybody wondering, Security breech has a whole backstage area, that was bigger than like half the map. And their were a bunch of different themed staff bots per character area. And if you used all the older unused game types, you could totally have a whole other game.

If I were to guess, those squares were development sprites. In a lot of 2D game development, developers use simple square (or otherwise roughly hitbox fitting) sprites as temporary placeholders to test mechanics, levels, etc. before dedicating time to making resources for them. It saves a lot of time in the long run because you can see that an idea works or doesn't before already animating characters, drawing environments, etc.

7:13 Former game art student, the reason the texture likely looks like this is because it's not the albedo (that's the layer with all the base colors on it), it seems to be a layer of the texture that instead defines how parts of it are rendered; for instance, if this texture showcased is supposed to be a metallic file, the lighter the yellow, the more intense the metallic shine.

4:26 Fun fact: I believe this sprite is actually loaded in game! However, it’s loaded only a frame before the Puppet’s jumpscare, it’s invisible, and it gets deloaded once the jumpscare plays.

I'm a gamedev amateur and I'm pretty confident that the reason Lives were in the files of the first three games is that Scott didn't make FNaF 2 & 3 from scratch but reused the file and code from the first game.

I would like to point out that the close-up shot of the puppet is not unused. It can be seen in-game as a hallucination while spamming the flashlight on his location.

4:20 that image of the puppets face was used in the game but you'd barely notice it. It's a rare hallucination but its so transparent that you'd miss it if you weren't looking for it.

My take on the lives system is that he used it to test the difficulty of each night, if he lost all lives he would probably tone the difficulty down a little bit until he completed the night.

16:40 the bonnet animation is actually used in game, she is one of the secret characters spawned by deedee and basically works the same way like she did in sister location

People often theorize that Security Breach was once a radically different game - but I've always had a personal belief that Sister Location was also meant to be a wildly different game. Hell it isn't very hard to imagine. I believe it started development as a standard game where you would primarily be in the main control module shocking animatronics to fight them off, you would crawl into Baby's room to either hide or fight her off. The main threats would be the smaller animatronics who you couldn't shock and would instead have to hide from - and you could also possibly hide from larger animatronics if needed, but they would have an easier time opening the door. You would go into the left or right rooms to fix power issues or whatever other gameplay loops could happen - and the night minigames would become part of the normal gameplay loop - sneaking past Balora and Foxy and fighting off Freddy as needed. The audio logs of activity in the vents would be the player's main warning that something was approaching and they had a few seconds to dive into the northern vent to get into the hiding spot before they were attacked. It honestly comes out as an amazing game and I wish there was a remake that followed this theme. It would be a deeply complicated game where each night is a constant desperate fight for survival where a moment of laxity would result in one animatronic or another breaking through your defenses.

4:21 This is actually used in the game. When the puppet escapes the music box, this is one of the flashes on your screen. (It’s rare though) It just is that it’s so incredibly transparent that it might as well not even be there.

It’s really weird to think that 2014 was nine years ago. I still remember watching Markiplier do his first playthrough when I was in primary school. Now I’m about to finish high school and move on to uni 😢 edit: 9 woops

The characters looking at the camera on the stage is the only Mandela Effect that I've ever fallen for. I coulda sworn that I saw it at least once. But, I guess when it comes to the science of how the brain works: What most likely happened was that my brain had seen the trailer of the animatronics looking at the camera. Well, Freddy is the only one who actually can look at the camera. I guess my brain melted the 2 images together to form a pretty convincing Mandela Effect Edit: It DOES EXIST!! However, it's only in the gamefiles and there is no trigger for that png to be loaded during gameplay. So, that screen is true-ish

The guidelines are a cool feature. You’re not censoring anyone or making it difficult to leave a review. 10/10 new feature and also 10/10 video. I love this game and it’s always nice to see people still digging and finding new things of what was. Keep it up!

15:10 I’m soooo proud to meet the final game voice actor ❤

13:57 This image in particular really creeps me out for some reason. I’m thoroughly desensitized to FNaF, and Sister Location isn’t even very horror-focused anyway, but this render evokes in me that same feel of understated dread that I remember from the early games. I can picture it perfectly as part of the existing game over screen, with that barely audible white noise and static. It reminds me of something out of a nightmare, not in the sense of being super frightening or anything, but in the sense of having this inexplicably uneasy emotion attached to it for no rational reason.

If I had to guess, he removed the all-stare picture, because it would be kind of pointless, because it would be too common. You would see it way to often, when the camera is flipped, it's a 20% chance of it showing, so you can imagine how it would lose it's charm at the end of the day, so they removed it and replaced it with only freddy staring.

This Video was so Amazing and Nostalgic to see lots of scrapped and changed content in the games, The animatronics looking directly at the camera always terrified me so much. The Nostalgia seeing all the Fnaf games, I remember watching Markiplier, Jacksepticeye, Yamimash play Five Nights at Freddy’s so much and others who did Fnaf news and facts like XxxProclassgamerXxx and Smike. And Your voice is so clear and chill. Love the editing, music and ambience you put for the background. Awesome Job man, you deserve a lot of subscribers! 👏

Thank you so much for reminding me about the unused ice cave ost.. I feel like you just unlocked the version of myself that had nothing else to worry about except for FNAF lore, Easter eggs and everything.. it's amazing

Your voice is very clear, the editing was good and the music used for ambience between each section of the video was great attention to detail, as well as the comments from scott, to aid your research. Very well done.

9:44 In this version you can hear all of the previous jumpscares. The breathy noise is 3, you can hear a slight bit of 2, and obviously the end is 1.

4:20 nah the close up on the puppet is actually used while hallucinating the puppet during gameplay. its has a very low opacity and time on screen but its there

The start of a it all. Ever since this video, I’ve been watching all of you videos. Keep up the great work

I think the lives counters being in the files was used so Scott could test certain nights without having to go through all the nights again. Hence their removal when released.

Fun Fact: JJs voice actor is Amber Lee Connors who has done a lot of anime roles for English dub. Those being Shoko Komi(Komi san cant communicate), Gwess(JoJo bizarre adventure), Delta(Boruto), Mei Mei(jujutsu kaisen) Pieck(attack on Titan) and many others. She also voiced android 18 in dragon ball z abridged(which is peak fiction/comedy) and voiced Chica in 2 other fnaf games

That intro is so good! It really gives me the chills with that music and your voice combination 🥶

I remember playing the first on a samsung tablet years ago. I never beat it, because the mobile version is actually significantly harder than the PC version since the nights are shorter, meaning the power drains quicker and the animatronics are significantly more aggressive at mid to high levels. Also, the lights toggle rather than being a hold and release system.

20:41 Thought I'd let you know that the Spring Bonnie render was literally just removed because it was a fan render that Steel Wool used by mistake, and they didn't want to get into legal trouble.

I remember in 2014 learning about the game from school kids, I just randomly heard their conversation by luck and when I got home decided to search it. It's been such a quick time honestly, I miss the older times and wish I could replay 'em, honestly!

Dude, great job. You've put so much effort into this and it really shows!

30:50 NO WAY NO FUCKING WAY ITS THE FUCKING MIMIC

Fun lil' Facts: (FNaF One) Scott confirmed that bonnie running down the hall was to hide foxy. (I believe in the Dawko Interview or on a Stream discussion?) Many of FNAF Trailers show cinematic bits that arent really apart of gameplay, including bonnie taking off his mask and most likely all the animatronics staring at you. I think scott said he removed the lives counter because it was too challenging or something? I think that was also in the Dawko Interview. Scott changed the phone number cause stupid timmy called up chuck e cheese The mobile loading render of freddy is never truly used itself. A teaser like it was up on scottgames once, but had endoskeletons in the backgrounds. The "old endoskeleton" has alot of history to it, but mostly on steam greenlight. It was believed to be a part of a alpha-kind or earlier build that was intended to be more horror. Now it is just a old model of the endoskeleton. The screenshots on steam are from demo-builds I think. That or were purposefully removed/updated. This is too long! Ill end it at fnaf 1!!!

I will always believe that German fun time Freddy will make a grand return. It’s too iconic

Everything about the games have never ceased to blow me away. The music, the atmosphere, the characters, the story, the symbolism, secrets, you name it, it has it. I love you, FnAF. ♥️

Thank you so much for not being one of THOSE youtubers who draws out cut content reveals for an hour just to pad run time. Your video is a list bullet pointed cut content that is presented in a short, sweet and to the point way which I appreciate so much because most youtubers, again, beat around the bush so much. Like, I didn't come here for build up, I came here for facts. Loved the video! Keep up the good work!

The German voice lines for Funtime Freddy in sister location where just exploratory. They recorded extra lines in a German accent because the voice actor could, and they ended up not liking it for the character. I do not remember my source sorry, but I believe there was an interview with the voice actor himself.

It’s crazy how popular fnaf still is even after almost a decade. I remember being so obsessed with this game when I was 12 back in 2014.

Fun fact: the 3 animatronics staring at you was in the first version of the FNAF 1 mobile port. But that was a deleted version and can only be accessed by old devices and only on mobile devices. So it really was in the game at some point

28:52 chica’s feeding frenzy is in Ruin!

The Halloween update open box that went unused is killer to me. :( I’ve been down a rabbit hole of FNaF lore lately, and I desperately want to know what Scott’s original vision for FNaF 4 was. I know the story has changed since then, but I still want that confirmation :(

Surprised that you didn't talk about the "Mike" sprite that was supposedly found in the FNAF2 files, definitely one of the oddest pieces of unused content in the series.

I read all the deleted emails and the lore that connects to Vanny from Security Breach is absolutely crazy. My jaw was on the floor the whole entire time i was reading it i’m so stunned. And the virus that got into their system that was so obviously Glitchtrap is insane

24:18 i thought it was gonna be really bad but its just a drawing of them but u can see certain body parts more than others 😭

The animatronics looking into the camera is one of the most terrifying things ever in the FNAF games in my opinion, idk why either it just REALLY makes me uncomfortable and uneasy

Even after all these years, Scott's default thumbs-up picture still makes me laugh.

That was a long ride but the video was very nice to watch and it surely was time consuming to make. A great job indeed

I absolutely love any Fnaf curse of dreadbear content so thank you for including that

I’m pretty sure bonnie running down the hallway was intentional to make foxys mechanics unknown (at least from what I've heard from others)

Nothing in this universe could have prepared me for German Funtime Freddy, I am so glad you shared this iconic bit of FNAF history

I can with 100% assurance say that i have seen freddy look at the camera with ghost eyes when the rest of the animatronics are not on stage.

14:34 I've actually heard that first one before. It was when handunit shuts down in the second night right before Baby's first dialogue in the Circus Control room.

This list is such a pleasing way to look back at the series

Those old teasers for 2 really brought back memories and how much fun it all was in the start

i dont know why, but putting on fnaf videos like this in the background relaxes me a lot

them looking at the camera could theoretically happen but all the animatronics move so fast at the begging it probably won’t because it takes a while before they do the *thing*.

10:10 I’m sure someone has already said this, but I believe the JJ “kick your ass” cut line is a nod to Luffy from One Piece because I believe JJ and Luffy share the same voice actor for the English dub of One Piece. Great video by the way!

I went "oh boy" when I saw how much longer the Security Breach section was going to be. Not surprising tho, that game really is a mess and you can easily just tell a lot of stuff got scrapped/changed around

bro i saw the unused camera where they were looking at you yesterday seriously

14:40 the glass motion is the baby jumpscare but got remove for some reason. If u see trailer for sister location u can see flashing light at baby room, that when baby or a bunch of baby minion stare at you in the glass and it start cracking, but i think scott cant animated that scene so he remove it

It's so wild to me that the first game gives me legitimate nostalgia. It feels like it really wasn't that long ago where every RU-vidr made their first lets play episode on it, MatPat made his first theory, and everything was so fresh. Simpler times, man. I miss 2014.

14:33 the motion trigger voice that says “motion trigger, technician control” is used in the mobile version of sister location, when the hand unit deactivates the power, and you hear all the motion tiggers go off, you hear the “technician control” as well

So cool how the unused paths between roxy raceway-fazerblast and monty golf-daycare are repurposed for Ruin

1:17. I remember when I downloaded the pirated version of the game to my tablet, I often looked at Easter eggs. To see them, it was enough to click on the same camera often. And I definitely remember that shot there. I can hardly prove it (the game may still be installed, but I do not know where the tablet is). I can't say exactly which version I downloaded, but at that time even the 5th part of the game seemed to have already been released

I’m never going to be convinced that the very first “Mandela effect” is true cuz I remember playing in school, and getting in trouble after my first run, when I leave my game open on night 1 straight looking at the animatronics. After like 2 minutes of just looking at them the screen flickers and suddenly they all looking at you 😭

I love Freddy assuring Gregory that the ad was not him. Still, out of the whole game, the most fun thing was his interactions with Gregory, I think

17:18 The texture looks like this as it's a way of packing multiple texture sets into one image (using RGB channels - you can pack Metallic, Roughness and Ambient Occlusion).

26:38 Freddy is confirmed a material girl😂

I think we should note that the trailers were probably animated outside the game to be more cinematic. Maybe that's why we see events and movements in them that aren't really in the games.

The reason the lives counter, demo text, ect. are left throughout the different games are because Scott probably had a framework of basic features from the first game and he just reused them to save time while working on later games (game developers are lazy yet efficient) and he probably forgot those files existed.

20:42, I believe I remember hearing this somewhere where the model was actually a fan-made one, and caused the ad to be taken down because they accidentally though it was just a normal springtrap suit. Technically counts as removed content but more of a woopsies on their part.

Working on my own mod for FNaF 1 and I was able to add that image of everyone looking at the camera back in the game

1:26 it actually was a thing in the final game but it's extremely rare. It's an Easter egg in game.

15:05 Is it me or does German Funtime Freddy sound funny.

For the seal vent button in fnaf 3 its actually used in the xbox/playstation versions of the game as you obviously cannot click

4:43 idk if this ever got changed, but I distinctly remember there was a point where in the mobile version of FNAF 2, Toy Bonnie and Toy Chica swapped roles, so Toy Chica would move across the office and Toy Bonnie wouldn't.

Dude this is actually amazing, I thought you would’ve had wayyy more subs, with content like this you definitely earned them

16:40 Bonnet appears in Dee Dee's Roster for UCN, but for some reason, when booped, her sprite just lowers, instead of having the reaction sprite If it was to save space, I don't know why the unused sprite would still be in the files 20:35 Spring Bonnie was removed because it was a fan render, along with the Funtime Foxy used

one of the unused puppet sprites is used in the give cake minigame.

I’ve always searched for the one where the animatronics look towards the camera for a long time, today is when I realized it was never in the game.

15:38 this version of the tape recorder actually appears in the opening scene of the game when you are faced with Scrap Baby, which also had you physically look down at the check list, rather than just bringing the paper up to your face like a camera in fnaf 1/2.

1:17 I am 100% certain I have seen this in the mobile game. It randomly happened when flicking up the cameras. Not sure if the other versions don't have it or if it was removed from the mobile version at some point but I HAVE seen it in game.

Something you missed in fnaf 4 is that the robot that stands on the floor in the corner where the dresser is, it used to be the Iron Giant robot

it’s so cool that fnaf special delivery was released on my birthday 2019! i had no idea and i was heavily into fnaf then, that’s so interesting

The fact that Freddy in security breach was "Cold" at the frozen endo part and Gregory just brushed it off so easily really makes me wonder if Gregory's even human.

15:24 sounds like Edward rictofen from Black ops 1 if he was stuffed in a Suit himself

That close up puppet image in FNAF 2 is actually used very rarely as a hallucination image

It is interesting to see what was cut out of Security Breach and then later used in the RUIN DLC

Actually, the reason that that image of Springbonnie on the Help Wanted poster was changed was because it was a fan-render and the people making the image were completely unaware. So, yeah, your comment of "seriously, steel wool?" is very relevant to that too.

17:13 I can explain why this looks like that, Most video games use 3 textures for their characters: an Albedo map, a ORM map and a Normal map. Albedo maps are what give the model its colour, for Spring Bonnie this would be yellow on the body, purple on the bowtie ect. The normal map gives the model a bumpy look, or a worn look with scratches and marks in places where the model should look more bunged up, these exist so modellers can add more detail to the character without increasing the poly count to an absurd amount, these are usually a bright blue colour. Finally what you're looking at is an ORM map with ORM meaning Occlusion Roughness Metalic, they're a little complex but it uses the three colour channels (RGB) to dictate if the model should be darker, look rough or look metalic, this is what gives ORM maps their odd appearance, the red or lack there of dictates how dark the model is in places, the green or lack there of dictates how rough the model is and you've probably guessed but the blue or lack there of dictates how shiny/metalic the model appears. TL:DR, This is an ORM map, it's used to give a model added shading/roughness/metalic detailing. Every file relating to Spring Bonnie was deleted but this so there's a good chance it was hidden in a spot the Developers didn't think to look.

at 20:34 that conglomerate was actually a controversy. The models that art was based off of were fan made and were inaccurate- which is why spring bonnie is there. scott eventually took down that version because , while the characters were his, he used art created by someone else without permission or credit. It wasn't a big uproar but he did get called out quickly

I remember the fnaf 1 light clicking sound and also the random images you get after Completing a night / starting the game
