Speeding bullets aren’t nearly as dangerous as human emotion.
Na een hele tijd geen Fazbear Frights boek gelezen te hebben, had ik er deze maand ineens weer zin in. Ik zit over het algemeen weer helemaal in een FNAF mood, dus dat zorgde ervoor dat ik echt heel erg genoot van dit boek. Daarnaast was dit ook echt de beste tot nu toe. Alle drie de verhalen waren zo goed, en vooral de tweede en derde. Ik zal gewoon m'n kleine reviews van alle verhalen hierin plakken.
1:35 AM 4.5/5: Heel goed was deze!! Vooral het einde was heel heftig? Ook al was het niet heftig? Dat ze gewoon de vent in gaat en zichzelf helemaal klem zet zodat ze daar nooit meer weg kan…. Heel eng. We volgen Delilah die elke nacht wordt gehaunt om 1:35AM door iets, en dat zal wel onze pop Ella zijn. Het is interessant want behalve aan het begin als ze Ella koop, zien we haar geen enkele keer. Dit was ook gewoon een goed verhaal naast de spookiness, dus goed geschreven en leuk om te volgen. Vond deze ook heel tof omdat we gewoon een jonge vrouw volgde, en denk dat ik dat iets leuker vind dan kinderen. Vond het ook wel tof dat het geen definitief einde/antwoord had.
Room For One More 5/5: Heel heftig, oh my. Ik was constant zo benieuwd wat er echt aan het gebeuren was en vond de connectie met de rest van de Fazbear universe heel tof, aangezien Stanley natuurlijk een security guard was. Was ook wel top dat ie wat korter was want het hoefde niet heel lang te zijn. Het einde... I hate it here. Gewoon zo goed verzonnen en ik zag het in mn hoofd helemaal voor me dat alle Minireenas in hem gingen.
The New Kid 5/5: I’m not even gonna lie, ik ben ZO confused na dit verhaal, maar het was zo goed!!!! Echt de beste tot nu toe omdat t 1) eng was 2) spooky en confusing was en 3) voor mijn gevoel t dichtstbij de games en original story was. Qua verhaal was ik niet helemaal sure wat de FNAF connectie zou zijn, tot ze bij de verlaten pizzeria kwamen. Vond Devon oprecht eng want hij was echt on a mission om Kelsey iets aan te doen. Ik vind de momenten van een Springlock suit dat helemaal foutgaat altijd tof, en dit was daarom heel tof.
Het was gewoon confusing aangezien Golden Freddy natuurlijk een grote rol speelt in de lore, en ik had geen idee of dit verhaal betekende dat Kelsey (of Devon) een deel maakte van hem, maar mn eindgedachte is gewoon dat Kelsey misschien door Golden Freddy wordt gebruikt om kids naar hem te lokken. Dit is dus so far het verhaal die de meeste inhoud had.
Geniet ook nog van de epilogen en het verhaal van de Stitchwraith dus ben benieuwd waar dat heengaat.

It was great to have some stories with adult main characters for a change! While my favourite of all Fazbear Frights stories still remains "Lonely Freddy" from the previous volume, I enjoyed this one immensely. All installments had good pacing and excellently written endings for a short horror story, my jaw literally dropped at the end of "1:35 AM" and "The New Kid"'s final paragraphs had led me to frantically discussing theories with my friend for a long time. I have already pre-ordered books 4 and 5 of Fazbear Frights as I'm waiting for more of these.

4 out of 5 stars
As I reached the end of this book, I audibly said "damn".
This volume of the series was a hell of a lot darker than it's predecessors. This no longer felt like Goosebumps, this felt more adult, more "Tales from the Crypt".
All three stories, plus the little epilogue at the end, stood out strong amongst all the other stories. I was genuinely unnerved by each one, especially the last one because holy shit.
Say what you will about the FNAF series, but Scott Cawthon is a fantastic storyteller and when his has the help of trained writers to help put together the story in cohesive ways (not just a well-implied moment in a video game) the horrific lore of the series is just awesome.

3.9 stars.
I'm really enjoying the Stitchwraith investigation stories at the very end of each book. It's nice to have an episodic narrative with heavy mystery after each random short story set.
As for this book, I thought 2 out of the 3 were quite good. Although the first story 1:35AM DRAGGED and was more of a psychosocial thriller than a Five Nights at Freddy's tale, but after finishing the Stitchwraith origin at the end of this anthology I understand and appreciate it a bit more knowing the theme of trauma and negative emotions is now a somewhat physical plot device: Delilah suffered a traumatic past while in foster care, so she, herself, was haunted. Very sad. But extremely slow. Normally I'm okay with a slow burn, but the while story was just the girl's descent into madness.
Room for One More made me want to throw up as the tragic end to that character is burned into my brain for life. And The New Kid will probably give me nightmares. It was very satisfying to see the sick bastard William Afton die an extremely painful death in both the games and in The Silver Eyes book, but it's a whole 'nother terrifying shock and nightmare when a child suffers the same fate. No child should EVER have to go through that no matter what they've done.
Let's keep the Frights coming.

Spooky!
Some very good pieces in this, but I don't think quite my favorites of the Fazbear Frights series as a whole.

Book: 1:35AM
Author: Scott Cawthon, Andrea Waggener, Elley Cooper
Book Series: Five Nights at Freddy’s: Fazbear Frights Book 3
Rating: 5/5
Recommended For...: horror lovers, FNAF players
Publication Date: May 5, 2020
Genre: Horror
Recommended Age: 14+ (death, illness, gore, abuse mentioned)
Publisher: Scholastic Inc
Pages: 272
Synopsis: From twisted toys to gut-wrenching games, this collection of terrifying tales is unsettling enough to mess with even the most hardened Five Nights at Freddy's fans. In this volume, horror master Scott Cawthon spins three sinister novella-length stories from different corners of FNAF's canon. Each story comes complete with accompanying artwork from a fan-favorite game artist to bring the horror to life in a whole new way.
Readers beware: In this startling world, desperate wishes have an unexpected cost, beautiful trinkets reveal appalling powers, and harmless pranks can go awry in ghastly ways.
Review: I am in love with these books! I love the premise and the stories. They’re well crafted and written. The stories are also very spooky and I’ve been having so many nightmares. Definitely recommend for the spooky season. The main thing to take away from this book is that FNAF effects all ages, not just kids, and that makes the series a bit scarier.
My own issue with this book is that the main characters were not kids and it was a bit of a weird shake up from the MO of the model of these books. The second story also had a weird POV switch and it threw me off.
Verdict: Recommend these still!

My favorite one so far!! I loved the first two stories, but the third one was only okay. I really didn't care about the characters in the last story and it was, unfortunately, the most character focused of the three stories. The first story was definitely my favorite and I loved the inclusion of Ballora and her little marionettes in the second story!

Well… that escalated quickly, didn’t it?! The FNAF books have always been advertised as ‘not for younger readers’ and honestly…who are they kidding? They weren’t particularly unnerving – no more than the Goosebumps ones were. But 1:35am ramps that up and honestly, some of the actual horror of the stories were intense and definitely had my eyes going wide in a ‘WTF’ way! But that’s a GREAT thing!
So 1:35am is the third instalment of the Fazbear Frights collection of short stories – each book has three short stories and I’ve enjoyed the past instalments but this one kicked it up a notch!
The first story was easily the scariest in terms of actual horror. It’s a slow burn and honestly it’s just so fucking tragic!
But the best bit about this collection – OMG the call backs to the original games! I love the interwoven webs between these stories, the original books, the games, omg trying to figure it all out is sweet agony!
But being able to recognise the throw backs or links was amazing throughout these stories – hence the 5 stars!
People who aren’t previous fans of the franchise can still enjoy these stories, but fans will absolutely get the most out of these!
