I read the very first one that came out (The Silver Eyes).

I don't remember too much of it other than how it was supposed to be separate canon from the games (even though the newer games tried to merge the two canons together for whatever dumb reason).

Nothing really stood out to me, and you wind up learning more about the OC and her gang of friends than you do about the titular character or any lore surrounding him. In fact I don't think there was anything new added at all.
 
Well the 2 sequels for it reveal that william is fnafs shitty version of Leauge of Legends Singed, he's a mad scientist who is scared of dying and wants to become immortal. Charlie the whole time was a robot and the real Charlie died at 3 years old, Henry tried to revive her but couldn’t and made 4 robot bodies for fake Charlie, the adult body got stolen by william and given to Elizabeth and for some reason he modeled the body to have a sexy clown aesthetic, william also invented chips that can send sound waves that fucks up people's vision to make them see things a very specific certain way somehow. henry literally goes insane and keeps a letter to aunt Jen telling her that william is evil and was mean to him and that he made evil robots to kill people but decides to do absolutely nothing about it and leaves it all for his sister to clean up his mess and goes on to kill himself like a cunt. Charlie dies at the end with Elizabeth at the hands of the suicide robot that henry made to kill himself instead of swallowing some pills or something.
Actual dogshit. But man it's entertaining dogshit.

............... wat

So Charlie was a robot in the first book the whole time?

That's basically the major twist of the Silver Eyes trilogy. Built up to be shown that it was an allegory for something within the games, probably to do with never letting go of the past. I've long lost track of what the series lore is supposed to be.

They showcased this teaser on the dawko charity stream
It's worth noting this doesn't actually appear in HW2. DLC coming soon perhaps?

Read the original trilogy and thought a lot of the stuff that happened in them was ridiculous and dumb. I tried getting through the then new Fazbear’s Frights shitty Goosebumps wannabe and gave up when I reached the infamous male pregnancy story. never even attempted Tales From The Pizzaplex, which was basically the same as the last series except it’s a prequel to Security Breach, but judging from what I’ve heard, most people said it was shit, except from the NuFnaf crowd who jerk off to the SB characters who said it was the best things ever.

Turns out the goosebumps ripoffs are indeed canon and answer unanswered questions, but they never imply which ones , so you just have to guess and cherrypick which stupid entry or detail is one of the canon ones, even though a lot of stuff conflicts with previous info, and how I’ve literally seen a discord thread managed by a single schizophrenic user who pointed out all of the boatload of details and inconsistencies that the TFTPP logically can’t be a prequel to SB before said schizo guy gave up and abandoned the thread altogether.

Sorry for the double post but they're basically "canon but not canon". It's a pussy move from Scott to dodge any possible criticism that could be raised against the dogshit writing and logic trainwrecks that the books cause.
If someone says "hey this makes no sense" they'll get the response : "omg no one ever said the books were canon !!1!! Stop whining!" . And if you just shit on something in the games not making sense you'll get the response : "uhhhm, just read the books they answer everything chud!!"
That's why Scott is vague asf on them being canon to the games or not, he doesn't want to fully commit to the consequences of making them canon so they're just suspended in limbo and become canon magically when a faggot wants to use them to defend the dogshit writing in the games' lore and story, schrodinger's canon. It's canon when it's used to dickride the lore, it's not canon when they harm the lore
Scott really just wanted to make a bunch of short stories with random horror elements, but he knows no one will give a fuck about them unless you slap fnaf on the title, but that still won't be enough for people to care about boring short stories about magic slime and a haunted clock doll. So he has to sell them under "you HAVE to read them because MAYBE, PROBABLY there MIGHT be some shit that PERHAPS could PROBABLY explain some dogshit plot hole in the dogshit games, I won't tell you WHICH stories do so and I'll inject them in a sea of non canon stories but I swear you HAVE to and NEED to read ALL of them so that hopefully MAYBE there could be a tiny detail stuck in one story that could explain why the games are dogshit" this nigga really is a conman. He can get his fandom to gobble up any retarded shit he could muster that barely resembles anything fnaf as long as he dangles the promise that there's a "deeper hidden meaning!!!1! 😱" behind all the mpreg and slime fanfiction.
Nigga could literally write a story about magical dragons invading an elf village and burning everyone but as long as the dragon is named "fazdragon" and is ridden by [insert random lore character name here] then there's totally a hidden connection behind it all and it's totally a fnaf product not a random ass creepypasta short story wearing the franchise's skin and name recognition to sell it's books

I can't believe this nigga is being named "modern R.L stine", bitch gtfo here

Indeed because the games have a different story, the books have a different story, the (soon to be) movie series has a different story, the new Steel wool games have a different story from Scott's clickteam games

It's all cope to keep the lore fans playing/reading/watching FNAF and cover up how much shit he started making up without a plan or timeline from FNAF2 onwards.

Even the clickteam games had major lore split, between the 'forgotten' timeline [FNAF 1-4's original lore] and the 'Henry & Afton' timeline [Sister Location, Pizzeria Simulator, and the retcons they made to the previous games to accomodate them.]

Right, once he added the Afton Family stuff and retconned the previous games to be mostly about them that became a new timeline. Before that you can't tell me there was much thought put into the character that became William Afton besides he's a child serial killer who worked at the pizzeria. And there's the crying child victim who definitely wasn't Henry's daughter, the tts in FNAF2 spelled out SAVE HIM not SAVE HER.

Henry and fnaf 6's ending is the biggest testimony to how much the fans don't give a shit about good character writing or writing in general in this series.
The positive reception to the ending is hard carried by the fans' previous knowledge of Henry from outside material like the silver eyes novel and matpat talking about said novel.
Henry is not a fucking character in the games, he's never mentioned directly, introduced or developed in any meaningful way. He's a non entity. He didn't exist in the games. I used to like the ending until a friend on discord blackpilled me on how the only reason I like it is because of outside knowledge of the character from a book that is not even in the same universe as the games and not because of the merits of the writing of the ending and game itself.
I mean ask yourself, if you never read the novel and you played the games in order, how will you react to the ending ? The answer is you'll be completely confused on who this random faggot is who showed up out of nowhere, killed everyone, had a gay monologue about how william was mean to him and then fucked off. Nigga who are you ? Where tf were you in both the games and in game lore in the past 30 years and wtf were you doing and why were you never mentioned at all ???? The game deadass acts as if we knew this character since fnaf1 and we're supposed to be rooting for Mr.literally who coming out of thin air in what's essentially the last 5 minutes of the story and becoming "the hero" by executing all the named characters. Who invited bro ? 😭 bro thinks he's part of the team 😭
Scott said that the novels aren't meant to fit with the games but bends backwards and makes the ENDING of the series reliant completely on a character he borrowed from the books and slapped on the games in the last 5 seconds. He's not even called Henry in game, he's fucking "cassette man" game literally isn't hiding the fact that it doesn't even wanna try to give him any semblance of comptent character writing and development because "aah whatever, they prolly read the novel or watched matpat talking about him". He's a textbook example of Deus Ex machina summoned by Scott from a different universe to just get rid of a bunch of characters that he doesn't know wtf to do with them in the lore. Nigga that ending is dogshit and needs to be mocked more

How I feel about henry is, nigga Michael did more stuff than you and half time he was following his father's orders.

And just to make it more of a clusterfuck the recontextualized story post Steel Wool makes it sound like he may not even be real and is based off or conflated with Edwin Murray, the guy who created the Mimic. The new Mimic game sounds like it's supposed to explain all this but in proper Fnaf fashion I think it'll pose more questions than it answers.
