Scott Cawthon generated the Five Nights at Freddy's: The Beginning fnaf. After his previous game was abandoned, the American developer created this piece. His characters were described as "unsettling and animatronic-like" by gamers. Chipper Sons Lumber Co has been described as "terrifying" in one of the reviews. Not only did the author survive all of this vile hatred, but he also used it as fuel for his writing.
