The first story in this book was good. Not great but still good. It took a turn that I was never expecting and in some ways I even feel a bit betrayed by the change. It isn't any fault of the story itself so I won't base my review around the change, but in a non-spoiler way I will just say that the cover is very different from the actual book. But for the story itself I will say that I think this story could have had another ten pages added to it, to flesh out the story more and to help resolve more of the issues in the story: such as pacing, unanswered questions and parts that left me wondering how things happened in the way that they happened. Some parts felt too abrupt and out of left field and I think that they could have been explained a bit more (to go a bit more into the problem for those who have already read the story, it is about the villain/antagonist of the story). That being said I still really enjoyed this story. The characters were a step up from the other books, they were enjoyable and were believable, and the character of Jack was nasty but in a way that felt real and not overdramatic. So all in all, this story is not perfect and like the rest of the stories, the writing is not masterful but is still good, and besides some pacing problems and some abrupt changes I still enjoyed.
The second book was my least favorite in the book. While the main character was still a believable person I found him to be too whiny to be enjoyable at times. At times it feels like the story around him is what truly drives this story forward instead of the main character pushing the narrative. I found his motives flimsy and his plan very flawed. While that was the point I still think that he should have had a better reason for doing what he did. Outside of the main character I still really liked this story, the atmosphere was dark and the brand new animatronic introduced is just so charming. He has a short appearance but despite it they feel like they just belong with the other animatronics. Overall this book was what one would expect from a Fazbear Frights story, a bland main character and a dark world that proves to be the best part.
The third story was by far the best in this book, an excellent closer to the book. Again it was not perfect, but it had the characters, the atmosphere, the motives and some great horror scenes. The ending was not the best and kind of fumbled the landing but in this one I truly think that the bads outweigh the goods. The main character is one of my favorites from the entire book series, she truly feels like a real person that is interacting with this world. The horror feels raw and real, coming from dread and guilt in a truly eerie way. It also has a truly unnerving body-horror scene that is the closest that I came to actually feeling real fear from these books. But my biggest flaw comes from the fact that the female characters in this story still fall under the 'she was curvy' stereotype that I am tired of reading. So overall I think that if the word 'curvy' was not used as much in this book then it would be in my top five since it has great scares and great pacing.
The epilogue was what I have come to expect, intriguing but short with some characters that I still appreciate despite them not being my favorites (except for the Stitchwraith. Stitchwraith is my baby) but I cannot feel like I can judge this story as it is still developing.
I think that this book has been getting too many bad reviews, but again that is my opinion. You can love this book, you can hate it, your opinions are valid. Though I see a lot of people accusing the cover for their problems with the book and I think that's unfair. But critisism is still needed because this book is far from perfect, with writing that could have taken a bit more time to imrpove, some bland characters, some confusing pacing and some abrupt changes. But overall The Puppet Carver is definitely not the worst Fazbear Frights book but still isn't the best. I still liked it and enjoyed each story, and despite my issues I truly enjoyed it.

First story was good. Second had a clown so automatically NO. Third story - I don’t know if Scott Cawthon or Elley Coopet wrote it but WHY? What’s wrong with you?

I think this is the weakest books in the series. The main problem is that it doesn't feel like Fazbear story since animatronics are barely there and they don't really play any significant role.
The first story was like many in the previous books. The main character is not likeable but the side characters were interesting. Pacing was all over the place and the story was at times simply boring. The animatronic had a great potential but fell flat.
In the second story I didn't really care about the main character. His motivations were very selfish and his plan flawed. The animatronic was interesting but we barely got to see him and thus it's hard to say more about it. I would like to see it in another story.
The third story was fine, although I am very tired of stereotypical characterization of girls. We have so many options and we still get a girl who stops being nerd to hang out with popular girls. The body horror in this was well written but the whole story was a bit longish, better pacing could definitely improve it. To me it didn't really feel like the Fazbear story though, the only thing that tied this to the franchise was one place and that's it, a bit disappointing.
After credits story gave a nice hint for the future events, I hope we will get at least some answers with the last book.

Yeah this book was pretty eh.
Y'know the first few books in this series were actually pretty good! But beyond about book 6 they go down hill pretty quickly...
Even so! There were moments in this one that I did enjoy, like the tension toward the end of the second story and the themes of body horror and cannibalism in the last one. I do enjoy that kind of horror.
I think this series is full of potentially good ideas and concepts, but poor execution and bad writing let it down.
I'm gonna keep reading this series but just know that I'm only doing it because I'm already this far in and it feels pointless to quit now and also because I need to know how Jake's arc ends!! Istg if Eleanor does something to him I am going to throw hands.

I enjoyed the second story the most.

There was little to no horror or suspense in this collection. What a shame because the early books were so spooky. this felt very much slapped together with the "shocking twist" endings making little to no sense as there were no hints to them leading up to it, they just kinda jumped out. So a meh collection...

Not my favorite book in the series. The first two stories feel incomplete to me, like I'm supposed to guess why things happened. The last story was my favorite in the book, but I didn't quite understand what caused Payton to feel the way she did.
I am still very much enjoying the series and I would recommend the series to any FNaF fan, but do try and keep an open mind when reading this particular book.

Following Gumdrop Angel, The Puppet Carver is a poor book with two stories that drag it down.
I actually did sorta enjoy The Puppet Carver. I do agree that the story feels as if it were drastically changed at the last second, and however I did find some parts of the story funny, and I liked the little bits of Sylvester’s story. All the characters overall are fun to read and this is one of those rare times in which a jerk character felt more comical to me. It has its flaws and is somewhat forgettable but I think it was still a good story.
Jump for Tickets was bad. This story does build up on the Ticket Pulverizer well, as Colton obsesses over it constantly, unlike Lonely Freddy where Alec comes across the title antagonist once and has it demonstrated to him before leaving. Despite this, I think this story is actually slightly worse than Lonely Freddy. Why? Characters. The only two characters I somewhat enjoyed in Jump for Tickets were Aidan, Colton’s little cousin, and Coils the Birthday Clown, and even then, Aidan isn’t that amazing of a character, he’s just a sweet child. Colton is a jerk, and while he uses his father’s death as an excuse, I still don’t think his behavior is justified. Alec comes to the realization that he’s messed things up and is sorry for it. Colton never is. As for the other characters, Mike was alright, although it is another case of a repeated name. I think Mr. Harrison and Colton’s mother should have been slightly more involved, as they’re the only two adults in the story that seem to care about Colton’s declining mental state.
Pizza Kit was bad. This story has a tendency to focus on pointless details that don’t matter to the rest of the story, like Payton’s interest in birds like ducks and Chica, which is also revealed to us right when we get to the pizza factory and meet Ms. Bryant. I didn’t talk about it in my Into the Pit reviews, but characters like Abby from To Be Beautiful, Millie from Count the Ways, and Abigail in this one are characters who have been treated similarly by old friends like I have, and thus I have an even bigger hatred for characters like Payton. I know the type of people who abandon their friends because they aren’t cool enough and I’m sick of them being the protagonists who they want me to feel bad for. Same goes for Marley. As for the other characters, it was nice to actually see Mrs. Crutchfield and Payton’s mother react to Marely’s disappearance rather than have the story skip over it like always. Overall, this story had potential, even with the ending. In fact, I actually like the ending in terms of what the story was trying to tell. The story needed building up. It sacrificed the time needed to build up to the ending

this story was book was decent, but had a lot of unexpected turns. I enjoyed it a lot more than the previous book, but this one was all over the place.
the puppet carver- what…the…hell? i had no idea what was going on here and I still have no idea. I instantly went online after I finished the book cause it made no damn sense. actually let me reword that; it made sense, but the build up and a certain scene in a car garage made no sense and seemed to give absolutely no substance to the story. so it could’ve been much shorter, honestly.
jump for tickets- I think we all saw the outcome of this story, but it wasn’t terrible getting there. it is weird to me that Colton didn’t just steal THE TICKETS instead of rigging the machine…lmao. if you’re breaking into a place, might as well keep adding to the criminal charges! quite a gory ending though and I LOVED the end part with Coils the clown and how it seemed Colton was possessing the animatronic once he died.
pizza kit- this one was so good, but WHY is it always the good people that die?! ;_; I always try to rationalize what the good person in these stories did wrong and it just doesn’t seem to matter how small or large the thing they did, they’re always punished typically with death. i will say the body horror was AMAZING, I would’ve hated to be eating during this story.

Probably the weakest book so far.
The Puppet Carver: There isn't much to say about this story the "scary" element was only present for less than 1% of the story, it's mainly about a grumpy old man who has a close death experience and becomes a better person. There's a supernatural explanation behind this but it's not that strong to be honest.
Jump For Tickets: It's not rare for previous fazbear frights stories to reserve the scary elements for last but at this point this story feels like more of the same, the main character is living a sad life and thanks to a fazbear animatronic they suffer a sad death.
Pizza Kit: Arguably the best story of the book, it actually delved into a bit of new territory with the main character's friend allegedly dying and having to lie about it to avoid any suspicion and the feeling of guilt was very relatable. I liked the fact that the story seemed very predictable from the beginning but decided to throw a welcomed curve ball at the end.
Epilogue: This epilogue was weak and I feel it's mostly because they just wanted it to be a set up for the next book's epilogue.

*Spoiler Free* (For most of the review. Stop reading after I introduce Pizza Kit to avoid spoilers)
This is the ninth instalment in the "Fazbear Frights" collection. Just like the previous books, this book features 3 independent stories. "The Puppet Carver", "Jump For Tickets" and "Pizza Kit". Starting with the first story, named "The Puppet Carver". This one was very interesting as it is theorized to be connected to the off-brand animatronics we see in FNAF Pizzeria Simulator. This story has a very terrifying ending and to me, it's a pretty good story overall. "Jump For Tickets" is a really cool story as it follows a kid who gets jealous that kids around him are getting a lot more tickets than he is and he eventually tries to rig one of the games so he can get a lot of tickets. As we've seen from other stories in this collection, you probably know that wont work out too well. Now on to the third story in this book, named "Pizza Kit", which I have a very controversial opinion on. This story, in my opinion, is the best story in this entire collection of books and stories (besides Into The Pit, which is arguably the best story) I know, I know...feel free to tell me how much you disagree with me in the comments. But I'm being serious. Besides Into The Pit, this is my favorite story in the entire collection of books. This book features two main protagonists, Payton and her friend Marley. I recommend you stop reading if you don't want any spoilers as I'm going to summarize the story as well as the ending. Payton is what we would call a typical "rule follower". She likes to follow the rules and tries to avoid getting in trouble. Meanwhile her friend Marley is a typical "rule breaker", she often breaks the rules, goes off on her own and is generally rebellious. She also has a tendency to be somewhat controlling to Payton, much to her mother's dismay. Payton and Marley are in a home economics class and take a field trip to Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza Kit Factory. While on the tour, Marley convinces Payton to separate from the group (something that was ill-advised by the tour guide). The two girls go up on the catwalks above vats of cooking pizza sauce. Payton is quite terrified of heights and is uncomfortable with Marley's escapades. Marley tries to convince Payton that everything is safe by jumping up and down, running and leaning on the catwalk. Unfortunately for Marley, she leans on the bars of the catwalk and falls off, falling into the steam. Payton is terrified that Marley just fell into the vat of boiling pizza sauce. Payton gets off the catwalk and starts to hear strange noises coming from the vat that Marley fell into. Over the course of the story, Payton is reminded of her friend and how she abandoned her to die by not telling anyone about what happened. Near the end of the book, Payton is driven mad by the events of the factory and fears that Marley wants revenge for what Payton did. She gets on the roof of her house to try and escape Marley's vengeful spirit. And then at the end of the book, it's revealed that Marley never died, she never even fell into the vat of sauce. She was just hiding out and exploring the factory. The reason I am in love with this story is because a lot of the other stories in this series have some form of a puppet or haunted/possessed animatronic that ends up being the main antagonist. Which don't get me wrong, that doesn't make those stories bad, quite the opposite actually since you ARE reading a book about FNAF. But this story takes a 180 and instead of having a murderous animatronic be the main theme, they instead opted for characterization. After seeing her friend get "killed" in the factory, she starts to feel guilty for not trying to look for her and not telling anyone about what happened. Her guilt starts to drive her crazy, thinking that her pizza is made of Marley's corpse. After eating her pizza, she even starts to believe that she's eating Marley's corpse. Payton is eventually driven mad and ends up dying because of it, all for the reader to find out that Marley was alive and well and was just hiding out in the factory for a few days. This story was amazing and (in my opinion) carries this book to a 5 star rating.

Fazbear Frights is collection of stories. Each book contains 3 short stories that are perfect for middle schoolers. Kind of like Goosebumps, but with FNaF characters. I absolutely intend to start each review with this "disclaimer". The amount of people that low rated these books simply because they failed to read the back covers is just astounding.
The Puppet Carver had an obvious error. During a scene where Porter was in thought, the narration said he and Porter when it should have said he and Sage. Another error i spotted was a t at the end of in. The story itself is a bit bland and very predictable. There's one scene that offers promise bit it doesn't go anywhere. By that scene I had figured out what happened. This story could have been better, but it's okay for what it is.
Jump For Tickets brings us Colton, who is too entitled for his own good. Good thing Coils the Birthday Clown was there to show him the error of his ways. I'm beginning to think the editor for this series was on vacation for this book because this one has more errors than any of the books before it. This time Colton became Cory out of nowhere. I like how not all the animatronics are wholly evil. Coils wanted to teach Colton a lesson, but it's obvious by the end he didn't want it to go as far as it did.
In Pizza Kit we meet Payton and Marley who learn following the rules is important and a guilty conscious is a person's worst nightmare. I'm absolutely convinced the editor was non existent for this book. Like the other two, this story had an error. Play should have been pay. The amount of obvious errors in this is insane and for someone like me that's dyslexic, it's very distracting. Anyway, this story was bland. There was nothing really interesting that happened. I'm honestly glad to be done with this book; it's by far the worst in the series thus far.
As for our chapter of Stinger, Larson gets some interesting information about that abandoned ball pit, and the Stitwraith, Jake, learns a bit about the girl he rescued. With just three more chapters left to Stinger; I'm kind of curious to find out how it ends, or if it crosses over into the Pizzaplex series.
With the amount of errors I found in a book that should have none, and the lack of life in these three Frights, I give this book 3 of 5 Paws.
The Puppet Carver had an obvious error. During a scene where Porter was in thought, the narration said he and Porter when it should have said he and Sage. Another error i spotted was a t at the end of in. The story itself is a bit bland and very predictable. There's one scene that offers promise bit it doesn't go anywhere. By that scene I had figured out what happened. This story could have been better, but it's okay for what it is.
Jump For Tickets brings us Colton, who is too entitled for his own good. Good thing Coils the Birthday Clown was there to show him the error of his ways. I'm beginning to think the editor for this series was on vacation for this book because this one has more errors than any of the books before it. This time Colton became Cory out of nowhere. I like how not all the animatronics are wholly evil. Coils wanted to teach Colton a lesson, but it's obvious by the end he didn't want it to go as far as it did.
In Pizza Kit we meet Payton and Marley who learn following the rules is important and a guilty conscious is a person's worst nightmare. I'm absolutely convinced the editor was non existent for this book. Like the other two, this story had an error. Play should have been pay. The amount of obvious errors in this is insane and for someone like me that's dyslexic, it's very distracting. Anyway, this story was bland. There was nothing really interesting that happened. I'm honestly glad to be done with this book; it's by far the worst in the series thus far.

The Puppet Carver
There are two main story threads in this one. These threads complement each other. In one, we read parts of a novel about a puppet made of wood slowly becomes human, with feelings and a child. In the other, a man by the name of Jack is shredded and replaced by a puppet animated by some unknown substance. In both stories, the element of what it means to be human is discussed, and I don't think there is a clear answer given to that question.
We can see a sort-of importance being placed upon emotions, but we also know that emotions are faulty. The puppet in the novel needs to gain feelings and he rarely does anything wrong with them; he wants them to be a better person--to pet animals and feel his daughter. However, Jack needs to lose feelings. He is angry and worried, he is abusive and disgusting; he will fire all his employees after he works them to the bone, just to make sure that the job is done. When he is churned, all of these negative emotions--or, let us say, all of his abusive emotions, for he seems to still think in realistic terms, which can be negative; his heart strings are strung when he realizes how inattentive he'd been with his son--are removed. There is nothing to stop the reader from thinking that he is simply a better person, but our author hints with the ending that something may not be right; he has no gone through a typical Scrooge experience, and the pain of the gooey stalker (a pain that details all the suffering he has caused and reflects it back onto himself) is perhaps not merely revenge; because the ending shows his corpse being dumped, and we must ask--if he is wooden (or goo), what then?
There is perhaps an element of death to this story. Does Jack die? The continuity of his thoughts as we are presented them does not suggest to me that they stopped, that a clone was created and his life snuffed out; there would necessarily be a breakage of that continuity somewhere, unless the novella hid it. Further, Jack has feelings and thoughts of his own, he remembers his past, and he wants to make amends. He seems capable of being a person, if--at the end of the day--he is not Jack, or Jack possesses a new body.

I WILL REVIEW THESE ONE BY ONE.
THE PUPPET CARVER
Alright, this one was okay in the fact that it had a very bittersweet ending. On one side, the new Jack was much more hopeful and wished to change his old ways, but the old Jack was brutally murdered. I liked the flow of the conversation whenever the characters talked to each other. In the end, this story was mildly enjoyable.
JUMP FOR TICKETS
This one did bore me quite a bit and the idea of the main character being a spoiled prick or an angry and arrogant person does kind of get old. What I did favor was the twist of the clown wanting to help Colton, but everyone being misguided and thinking that it is nothing more than just a robot. I did kind of feel bad for both Colton and the clown, who was only trying to help, but once again no one could hear their feeble attempts at communication.
PIZZA KIT
This one bored me quite a bit up until the end. I think the main driving force of what makes these stories terrifying is the idea of them, at the thought of someone not being able to be heard, or someone going missing and no one knowing or caring about where they went. I think that is what makes the world of Five Nights at Freddy's so terrifying is the thought that someone could vanish without a trace and there would be no explanation as to how and why. The ending of this proves it but also shows the other side, the bodies that ARE found. The girls fear was rational and at the fact she was scared that people would assume it was her. Another horrifying aspect of Five Nights at Freddy's is we don't get to see what comes after. How people blame themselves or others, those who are in complete shock and don't know how to handle it. We get glimpses of it, but we never get the full story and that, I think, is what makes these stories more terrifying than it just happening. It's what comes after, or what came before. The mystery of a murderer who could outlast death, and the people who suffer in his wake. That is what I truly like about these stories.

I've been putting off my thoughts about this book simply because I finally found an entry in this series where every story was just too much for me.
I love horror and have enjoyed nearly every single story in these mini anthologies up to this point. I was horrified and shocked by how far the "gross-out factor" went in all three stories of Puppet Carver. The third story in particular made me physically ill and I had to stop and take a week-long break before I could finish it.
This volume took the terrible, black ideas and imaginations we put in our heads of "what would happen to me if...?" and "What would it be like to die that way...?" and gives you a front row, camera closeup experience of a complete follow-through to the answers of some of those questions...except those terrible, horrifying, and torturous deaths are happening to young preteens.
Once again, I will always be amazed at the character depth and exploration of the characters' minds by the authors who make these pieces of paper and ink feel like real people. But I did not enjoy even one sentence of this book. Topping it off with the weakest Stitchwraith story to date so far and that compelted my disappointment and lingering stomachache after finishing the last page.
Do not recommend this one and I'm sorry I actually read it.

This was a let down and really gross, and not in a good way.
Puppet Carver was ok, it didn't end how I expected but honestly I liked that. It didn't feel...complete, like it was missing something, but it was ok.
Jump For Tickets was meh. it was basically couple other fazbear stories (Gumdrop Angel, Lonely Freddy, etc) mashed into one. Ansty boy, who hates the world and small children, gets angry/jealous/spiteful and tries to cheat his way into winning. The sad thing is, he breaks in fazbear pizza, so why not just steal the tickets while you're there? Why go to the hassle, you've already committed a crime? Just boring, stupid, and meh. I like the animatronic Coils, but he was very small part in the story.
Pizza Kit I would have liked, as I like the psychologic stuff, but this one took it took far. It was super gross, even if it was in her own head. Like the nightmare, I mean you'd freak out over the hand, there's no way you wouldn't wake up just from that. But it goes further and I honestly don't feel like it need to go that far.
Also for me, the names of the girls got mixed up in the book. There were several times it said Marley's name instead of the main character's Payton, when it was reading looking through Payton's view. Simple mistakes but I had to double check a couple times that I wasn't missing something.

Each story in this book is good. Not great, but good. The first is blatant false advertising. The puppets on the cover never appear in this book. That being said, the story is really cool and has a fair amount of twists I didn’t see coming. The villain is a rerun, but done so much better here than in their first story. It’s clear this antagonist is going to be something important soon. The second story is also really interesting, and uses a fear that I’ve really wanted these books to explore more, even if it’s in an odd setting. The villain here is totally random and could have been someone entirely different, but whatever. It’s okay. The third story is the most gory one in the series so far. Like, wow. This was nuts. Also a huge plot twist in the end that makes the longer story worth it in the end. This book wasn’t full of as many greats as some previous ones, but still really enjoyable.

The Puppet Carver: This was a really interesting and a bit of a weird story. I wished the machine was explained a bit more as it is left a bit to ambiguous about what happened to Jack. I get that the machine did something the Jack but what is not very well explained. It is still a good story as Jack is a character you want to hate and it reminds me a little of how Tales from the Crypt handled main characters but I just feel because of the ambiguity of what happened to Jack it does not feel like that great of a payoff.
Jump for Tickets: I feel so sorry for Colton and he did not deserve what happened to him at the end of the story. The story does a really good job of showing he came up with a plan and it is definitely a plan a kid like Colton would have came up with. I just feel he did not deserve that type of ending. But it is still a gruesome ending.
Pizza Kit: A very boring story as nothing really happens in the story but the twist does kind of save it but still a boring story.

I once again don't really care about the characters involved, especially Colton who just comes across as a hugely entitled jerk, even if he is meant to come across this way, it is done to such a degree that you completely don't care about what happens to him. I also noticed there were some plotholes present in the story, especially in the Pizza Kit, she fell from what is said to be a considerable height onto hard ground. even if the height was exaggerated, the way Marley fell, she would have landed on her back. ain't no way she would be able to stand up for a WHILE. and by the time she could, they would've noticed she was gone... And even if she could stand up immediately she would NOT be in a fit condition to pretend to be missing for >24 hours... and if she DID, she is the absolute worst human being ever for thinking it would be fun to make her parents fear for her LIFE.
80% of these characters are scum.

Maybe I had blocked it out in the earlier installments, but after reading both "Pizza Kit" and "What We Found" (from the last book) it's clear how much these stories rely on gore. These are literally Five Nights at Freddy's books i'm not expecting the next Shakespeare work from them, but most of what I've read so far has been fairly well-written and captivating.
That being said!!!!!!!! "Pizza Kit" and "What We Found" had me physically cringing. The graphic descriptions of body horror is disgusting and I wish they could've taken another route that didn't rely on describing broken limbs or bloody eyeballs.
I don't think I can express HOW ill I felt reading these, definitely took away from the experience when I was taking breaks in between pages to try and cleanse my mind. Honestly "The Puppet Carver" and "Jump for Tickets" were enjoyable, at least I didn't feel the need to spill my guts reading them.
Excited to read the rest of the series though, high hopes!!! :-)

Loved the first one. Ending was the best part. Second one? Second was a bit forgettable, but again, THE ENDING. I don't want to talk about the first and second for a while, because I want to talk about the third one.
SCOTT CAWTHON, WHAT THE ABSOLUTE FU-
The third one is called Pizza Kit, and I just can't explain this. It's the most disgusting thing I've ever seen in the FNAF universe. And I've seen a tiktok where Afton and Ballerina Cappuccina go under the covers in a yellow and gray room. Don't ask.
THE HUMAN PIZZA. THE ENTRAILS OF MARLY'S BODIES AFTER FALLING INTO A HOT STEAMING PILE OF TOMATO SAUCE IN A FREAKING FNAF FACTORY!!!! THE ENDING!!! I have to unleash the inner "warning man" in me and say: If you cannot handle extreme gore and are just reading the books for light horror but not a lot, then you can read the first and second story, but not the THIRD ONE. DEFFFFINETLY NOT THE THIRD ONE.
Anyway, I know this is a crap review but I don't really care. :)

Increíble, fantástico, asombroso... son algunas palabras que puedo decir de las historias de este libro, llegando a este punto los escritores se han decantado por historias más allá de los clásicos "animatronicos" teniendo conceptos que, aun pertenecientes al contexto y universo de FNAF brillan por si solos, no es únicamente como desarrollan a los personajes o como crean una atmosfera de suspenso y terror, si no también en como utilizan los recursos que tienen a la mano para expandir la narrativa, darle un giro de tuerca.
Las tres historias me mantuvieron enganchado, supieron explotar sus conceptos y lo más importante, fueron entretenidas de leer, recomiendo la edición número 9 de esta serie de libros sin dudarlo.

This collection was hella boring and I only liked the second story, Jump for Tickets. The first novella was a really weak narrative about a bad pizzeria owner and sentient puppets. The last story was straight about a girl lying about her friend falling into a giant vat of marinara sauce touring the Freddy Fazbear Pizza Factory. Nothing worth mentioning. It's very rare these days for me to enjoy all 3 books in a Fazbear Fright's bindup. The one story I actually liked was the second one, Jump for Tickets. Our protagonist really wants a game console from the prize area in the pizzeria and is trying is best to win enough tickets. He refuses both his cousin's offer of half his jackpot and his mom's suggestion of getting a job to buy the prize outright. Our hero refuses these two perfectly logical options for the sake of doing what he wants. He's perfectly fine with wasting his mom's money and months of his life for this singular prize. He ends up tampering with the machine to pump out more tickets instead of stealing a huge hunking reel for his own. That would make too much sense! Fast forward to him getting stuck in the machine and you can imagine what happens next with a title like Jump for Tickets. This book was mad stinky, but at least I got my animatronic fix. This would be another neat story to incorporate into the games, especially with the creepy clown creature, Coils. I only have a few books left before I move onto the next FNAF collection. Hopefully they're more consistent than these fools!

In the Puppet carver Jack's pizza place is failing and the stress is ramping up, so in desegregation he turns to his tech whizz employee who creates a machine called "The puppet carver."
In Jump for tickets Colton is enraged at an unfairly rigged arcade game so in revenge he tinkers with the machine which leads to disastrous consequences.
In Pizza kit Payton loses her best friend Marley whilst on a tour of the Freddy pizza factory but she doesn't just lose her she knew just what happened that day.
Another gruesome trio of tales, my favourite was Pizza kit, that was horrendously gory.
No wonder grisly kids love these stories.

The stories are still fun but, at this point in the series, the characters and themes are all starting to feel repetitive. Which is a bummer. I also had a hard time following the stories in this volume, or even understanding what was happening to the characters.
But I loved the back-and-forth style of storytelling used in "the Puppet Carver," as it switched between the main story and excerpts from Sage's manuscript. "Jump For Tickets" gave us Coils the Clown, who has a really interesting design, and "Pizza Kit" has surprisingly good female characters and dialogue (for this series). Also, the ending to that epilogue? Just... *chef's kiss* It's so good!

The Puppet Carver
This one had a lot of potential to be a good one. With the name which led me to believe this would be a horror story based on killer puppets, I was expecting to love this one! But the ending was a real let down. It didn't make much sense to me and didn't end up being scary at all.
Jump For Tickets
Jump For Tickets definitely sets a good example that being greedy isn't always a good thing. Also being claustrophobic myself, this one definitely creeped me out.
Pizza Kit
I'm a big pizza fan so this one grossed me out. While it was slower pace wise, it had a really killer ending that I liked.

Hungry for some pizza now.
The Puppet Carver - A Christmas Carol in Fnaf?? The idea was wild, but I needed the Three Animatronic Ghosts to fill in the blanks. Because it's like pairing the beginning and end of that story without substituting the middle, just so you can have a gotcha ending.
Jump for Tickets - Love the amateur heist idea and the clown animatronic. Nice and quick too.
Pizza Kit - Best of the collection. The high school stuff at the beginning was hella fun, and the dark turn was quite saucy. The bathroom scene was so disturbing; one of my fave scenes in the series. A fun, campy story.

The weakest installment in the series yet. The first story was quite boring and the twists in it made no sense – and I say that keeping that it is Fazbear Frights in mind. The second and third story were better than whatever the first one was but unfortunately 9 books into this series, I need something more than what these offered. I would have loved them if it was one of the first parts of Fazbear Frights but at this point I expect more. If this is what we're getting now, then the series should have already ended.
