Episode 40 - What If... (Part IXX: Security Breach Epilogue)

In this episode, we are taking a venture in the Five Nights at Freddy's Fan Game Initiative and exploring the origins, gameplay, and lore behind Popgoes Arcade, myPOPGOES, and the broader Popgoes universe. Has this fan-driven project, which has earned Scott Cawthon’s seal of approval, carved out its own identity within the FNaF legacy? Or have delays and controversy left the fangame initiative in a worse state for wear?Will you follow us Into the Night?GET A BOBBIEDOTS ROSE T-Shirt: https://www.intothenightmerch.com/Check out Popgoes Arcade: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1986840/POPGOES_Arcade/Check out myPOPGOES: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2429350/myPOPGOES/Support us on Patreon! patreon.com/NickBlack204Official Discord: https://discord.com/invite/8p7tDE9VNDOfficial Business Email: [email protected] Question Email: [email protected] Twitter (@FazbearPodcast): https://twitter.com/FazbearPodcastOfficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkzY_ChXVIowflDO_MByfMACast:Narrator: Nick BlackMusic:Five Nights at Freddy's - Scott Cawthon/Steelwool Studios/Mega Cat StudiosPost-Shift 2 - Rjac35Popgoes, Popgoes Arcade, myPOPGOES - Kane CarterFive Nights at Freddy's and all its copyrighted works are owned by Scott Cawthon.Our Sponsors:* Check out Uncommon Goods: https://uncommongoods.com/intothenightAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Why does indie-mascot horror keep returning to the trope of the underground laboratory—a subterranean factory of nightmares that stretches endlessly downward? From Five Nights at Freddy’s to Poppy Playtime to Bendy and The Ink Machine, this setting has become a hallmark of the genre. But why is it so hauntingly effective, so widespread, and what does it symbolize?In this episode of Into The Night, we explore the roots of the underground lab trope, its ties to Afton Robotics / Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rentals, and the metaphorical “Chasm of Babel”—a reflection of humanity’s pride, hubris, and desire to usurp the divine. We’ll discuss how these hidden depths embody the decay of the world, the arrogance of men who try to cheat death, and the terrifying cost of intellect unbound by morality.Will you follow us Into the Night?Support the Show on Patreon! patreon.com/NickBlack204Official Discord: https://discord.com/invite/8p7tDE9VNDOfficial Business Email: [email protected] Question Email: [email protected] Twitter (@FazbearPodcast): https://twitter.com/FazbearPodcastOfficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkzY_ChXVIowflDO_MByfMAOfficial Merch Store: https://www.intothenightmerch.com/Cast:Narrator: Nick BlackThumbnail Art by: YourResumeMusic:Five Nights at Freddy's - Scott Cawthon/Steelwool Studios/Mega Cat StudiosPost-Shift 2 - Rjac35Popgoes - Kane CarterSFX:www.freesound.orgwww.videvo.nethttps://mixkit.co/Five Nights at Freddy's and all its copyrighted works are owned by Scott Cawthon.Our Sponsors:* Check out Uncommon Goods: https://uncommongoods.com/intothenightAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

William Afton, the man behind the slaughter. The main antagonist behind almost every dark deception within Five Nights at Freddy's. From his early appearances as the Purple Guy in FNAF 2, to his grotesque resurrection as Springtrap, and as the cunning corporate figurehead of Fazbear Entertainment, Afton has taken on many forms—but all serve one purpose: control, power, and satisfying his own twisted sense of pleasure.But beneath the jump scares and lore, is there a deeper theme to his character? A cautionary tale from his decade-long performance of embodying envy, pride, and arrogance—a worldview poisoned by the belief that one is entitled to power, legacy, and dominion. The Spirit of Cain—destroying what he cannot possess, and damning all who stand in his way.Will you follow us Into the Night?Support the Show on Patreon! patreon.com/NickBlack204Official Discord: https://discord.com/invite/8p7tDE9VNDOfficial Business Email: [email protected] Question Email: [email protected] Twitter (@FazbearPodcast): https://twitter.com/FazbearPodcastOfficial YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkzY_ChXVIowflDO_MByfMAOfficial Merch Store: https://www.intothenightmerch.com/Cast:Narrator: Nick BlackMusic:Five Nights at Freddy's - Scott Cawthon/Leon Riskin, Steelwool Studios, Mega Cat StudiosHollow KnightEdited by: Nick BlackWritten and Produced by Nick BlackFive Nights at Freddy's and all its copyrighted works are owned by Scott Cawthon.YES.

With Monty out of commission and Glamrock Chica reduced to a husk of her former self, Gregory returns to Parts & Service to upgrade Glamrock Freddy with his newly acquired parts. Now, only Roxanne Wolf stands between him and escape from the Mega Pizzaplex.
