This is still really funny to me.

Haunted animatronics were a thing long before FNAF. Same with sentient NPCs and DDLC.

I actually made a [playlist to play alongside the animation](https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/soos-and-the-real-girl/pl.u-d2b00PXFLg6p2pb)

One of the songs is actually Doki Doki Forever*, and for the jump scare to line up with Giffany killing that dude you need to press PLAY on the music SIX SECONDS before starting S2 E5.

Lots of cool syncs on this list highlighting (mostly) female artists, enjoy!

* I absolutely LOATHE Doki Doki Forever, but my kids liked it at the time and this list was for them (but is of interest to the GF sub)

Didn’t fnaf release in 2014? When did this episode air?

It did both genres first kinda, fnaf is different cuz in fnaf it’s the souls of kids possessing the animatronics instead if a glitch, but yeah very similar, and I’d argue that the robotic possession thing is more that they started the Yandere thing rather than ddlc, but she does look like a ddlc character

The timing for that episode to come out *right* when FNAF got big was incredible.

Animatronic gimmicks at restaurants being scary / uncanny is at least as old as Chuck E. Cheese. Invader Zim had Bloaty’s Pizza Hog before Gravity Falls or FNAF were either a thing.

NGl I thought she was a baddie when I was younger

Gravity Falls is (pardon the pun) a really deep rabbit hole if you start digging into it.

he is secretly god
