  Summary

  A pitch feels more suitable than a description that matches it in tone: Coppelia is a trans dude, and has grown up obsessed with figuring out the truth about Fazbear Entertainment and his father’s death. Against his father’s dying wish, when Fazbear Entertainment puts out a job listing for a retrieval specialist to find artifacts for their new Fazbear’s Fright Horror Attraction, he takes the job. This story also gives closure to the spirits of Ralph and Bronwen.
