so this guy walks into a Chuck E cheese one night and he just starts blasting blam blam unal living some of the workers and some people think this massacre inspired a whole ass video game franchise let me explain now the guy's name is Nathan he's 19 and Nathan he's kind of a turd he's been in and out of trouble his whole life committing several armed robberies and spending time in a juvenile detention center but now he has an actual job working at the pizza place/ Arcade chuckecheese where he works as a d master I guess
that means he makes the pizza dough but then one night he's working a shift and he goes to talk to his manager because he wants to ask for more hours so he asked the manager to give him more hours and manager's like nah bro and this makes Nathan mad and they start arguing and it gets heated and pretty quickly bam the manager straight up fires Nathan and Nathan he doesn't take this firing well he's pissed off he feels like he was wronged and he vows that one day he's going to get revenge and so a
bit of time passes and Nathan is still salty thinking about this he hates that manager he tells all his friends how he hates that manager sometimes he even visits the Chuck-E-Cheese to eat and bent to his old Chucky Cheese co-workers like this place sucks that manager sucks and I guess his old co-workers humor him but they don't really take him seriously and 5 months go by and this resentment has been building up in him this whole time how dare they fire him when all he did was ask for more hours now I don't know if
he's in a bad mood or just having a terrible day but one afternoon Nathan is playing basketball with his friends and he decides that this is it today is the day and he says it out loud to his friends today is the day I'm going to get revenge on that manager and I'm going to Rob that chuckecheese so later that night around 900 p.m. he gets a pew pew that he had stolen from a friend's grandmother's house long before this and he gets that pew pew and he hides it in his pocket then he borrows
his girlfriend's car and he drives it to the Chuck-E-Cheese and he goes inside he sits at a table he orders a ham and cheese sandwich and he's acting pretty chill and then he goes and he plays an arcade game the game he plays is actually Hogan's alley which Hogan's alley is ironically a shooting game where you shoot targets with one of those big red arcade Pew pews anyway after playing Hogan's alley Nathan goes and he chats with an employee a former co-worker of his and he asked them if that old manager who fired him is
working that night and the former coworker is like nah he's not working tonight and so the guy who Nathan wants to get revenge on isn't even there and all this resentment building up in him just leads to nothing so now what's he going to do is he going to leave is he still going to rob the place well when he sees the last few customers at the checkout counter collecting their prizes that they had won that's the signal that the restaurant is about to close so Nathan heads into the men's restroom to hide and figure
out what to do and while he's in there the customers leave and the Chuck-E-Cheese workers they start closing down the store so Nathan he's in the bathroom and he's looking at himself in the mirror and he looks at his reflection for maybe 10 minutes trying to decide if he's going to actually go through with this crime he's been planning and that is when he says it he's going to do it and he walks out of the restroom and he pulls out his pew pew and he first sees an employe and she's cleaning the salad bar
and she doesn't even see him and so he walks over to her and he puts his pew pew up to her head and bang she's un alived then he quickly steps toward another employee that employee is vacuuming and Nathan holds up his pew pew and bang right in the face un alived then he sees another employee and she actually sees him shoot the others and she sees him coming and she immediately gets on her knees and she begs him not to un alive her don't shoot I won't tell but because she already saw him un
alive two people he replies I have to and he points his pew pew at her head and bang un alived then Nathan runs into the kitchen and this guy is there his name's Bobby bobb's cleaning up and he had heard the shots coming from the dining room but he thought it was the other workers like popping balloons so it didn't alarm him but now he sees Nathan coming toward him and before he can react bang Nathan shoots him right in the jaw and he falls to the ground then Nathan heads to the manager's office where
the night manager is and she's in there and she's logging receipts and by the time she looks up and sees Nathan he's already there pointing his pew pew at her and he's like unlock the safe so she does and immediately after that Bang Nathan shoots her then he takes her purse and he fills it with $1,500 cash from the safe Chuck-E-Cheese keychains and for some weird reason a bunch of game tokens like he's going to come back one day and try and win some prizes or something but anyway after that he gets in the car
and he drives away fleeing the scene and he does all that unal living innocent people some of them he knew and worked with and he was cool with them and he does all of this in a children's restaurant all for $1,500 and some game tokens here's what's really crazy though we're actually kind of fortunate that he waited and did it when the restaurant was closing and not when it was open because if it had been open if the place had been open if you had walked into Chuck-E-Cheese and started lighting the restaurant up on a
Saturday during lunchtime the place would have been full of kids and there would have been a lot more casualties anyway another side note allegedly this whole tragic event is what inspired the video game which later became a whole franchise Five Nights at Freddy's cuz both five nights and Freddy's and this story they involve Murders At a kid-friendly pizza restaurant with animatronics and both stories involve five victims so yes there are similarities but unfortunately from what I can tell that's just internet lore the creator of the game has never claimed Five Nights at Freddy's was inspired
by this event so it just seems to be a weird coincidence that the internet is buzzing about but anyway this story is not over because not everyone involved in the shooting actually died crazy enough Bobby the guy from the kitchen after Nathan shot him he fell to the floor and immediately he starts playing dead until Nathan walked past him to go to the manager's office to claim his next victim so bobb's not dead so he gets up and he's all wounded but he escapes he runs out the back door of the restaurant and he runs
to a nearby apartment complex and he finds a resident and he's like help there's been a shooting at the Chuck-E-Cheese so that Resident calls 911 emergency 911 I have a man who's been shot at my house right here he came from chuckecheese he claims there's been a lot of people shot there so then police show up and they find the four workers un alived and they talk to Bobby and he's able to tell them who did it he's like yeah it was this guy who used to work here Nathan so then police go to Nathan's
mom's house where he lives but he's not at his mom's house he's at his girlfriend's house and he's smashing with her not exactly the most romantic time to do that but okay so his mom Pages him and she tells him the police want to talk to him so he stops smashing and he goes home to talk to the police and eventually bam they arrest him here's his mug shot and ultimately he goes to trial and he's found guilty and he's sentenced to death but later his sentence is changed to life in prison so shout out
