Fans of the indie survival horror game "Five Nights at Freddy's" (FNaF) are anticipating the fifth installment in the series, titled "Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location."

With the game expected to be out this fall, various speculations and theories have been making rounds online which further boost the hype over the much-awaited "FNaF" installment.

For instance, as to the most obvious question of where the Sister Location is, reports came up with five different theories on where it could be, all based from the first trailer released on YouTube by developer Scott Cawthon. The preview can be seen below:

The theories include an underground area of a circus, an animatronic factory, a lair of a mad scientist, a kid-friendly eatery, and a safety bunker.

These locations may be possible, as the game is supposedly going to be played underground.

Other discussion boards  also theorized that the "sister location" is Fredbear's Family Diner, and an elevator leading to an area beneath the restaurant will start a whole new adventure in the game.

Meanwhile, there have also been rumors that the game's new main animatronic is named Ennard.

The name appeared a few months ago, when Cawthon filed a copyright catalog and fans saw the name appear on the list. Connecting it to the graphic seen on Cawthon's site, many believe that Ennard will be in the final chapter.

The photo comes with the tag line, "You will find a little of me in every body," and the fact that the last two words were separated could be a slight play in words that connects with the word "innards" which sounds close to Ennard.

Cawthon has even acknowledged it as he took to Reddit to comment on the speculation, saying: "No worries guys. The characters needed to be copyrighted, and I knew this would get out. Have fun speculating! Ha ha!"

"Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location" has certainly taken a life of its own as mere rumors and theories about it have gotten fans hooked. Stay tuned for more updates on the upcoming "FNaF" installment.
