Five Nights at Freddy's 2: What Happens After the Credits?
Five Nights at Freddy's 2 drops two post-credits surprises, teasing Springtrap's return and a chilling voicemail, hinting at more chaos to come. Find out what these scenes mean for the future of the franchise.
Fans sticking around after the lights come up in Five Nights at Freddy's 2 are in for a treat, with not just one but two extra scenes tucked away in the credits. These moments offer a glimpse at what might be next for the much-loved horror series, and they’re sure to get punters talking.
Springtrap Uncovered: A Hidden Room Revealed
Midway through the credits, the film cuts to a trio of blokes sneaking into the original Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria. They’re on the hunt for props to deck out their Fazbear-themed haunted house, knowing the old place is set to be knocked down the next day. As two of them rummage for memorabilia, the third calls out—he’s stumbled across a concealed room. Inside, they find the Springtrap animatronic, the same suit that malfunctioned and did in William Afton at the end of the first film.
One of the men comments on the foul stench, not realising it’s coming from the decaying body still trapped inside the suit. This hidden space had been used by the spirits of the children to keep Afton contained. But with the spirits now freed—having finally moved on at the end of the sequel—the room is no longer hidden. The men, oblivious to the danger, cover Springtrap with a plastic sheet, planning to cart it off for their haunted house. With Afton’s animatronic body now out in the world, the stage is set for more trouble down the track.
A Haunting Voicemail: The Marionette’s Revenge
Just when you reckon it’s all over, the credits roll on to a final audio tease. As the last names fade from the screen, Skeet Ulrich’s voice comes through in a voicemail left for Mike. His character, Henry Emily, admits he was once Afton’s business partner and helped create the animatronics. He confesses that his daughter Charlotte, murdered by Afton years ago, is now seeking vengeance, using the Marionette puppet to go after anyone she can.
At the end of the message, the sound of the Marionette breaking into Henry’s house is heard, leaving little doubt about his fate. The implication is clear: Charlotte, through the Marionette, is out for blood, and Henry’s past has finally caught up with him.
Hints at What’s Next
These two post-credits moments strongly suggest the story isn’t finished. With Springtrap now in the open and the Marionette on a path of revenge, there’s plenty of room for another chapter. While there’s been no official word on a third film just yet, these scenes make it clear the door’s wide open for more mayhem in the future.
Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 is currently showing in cinemas, and with these extra scenes, fans have even more reason to stick around until the very end.
