Discovery Island, (also known as Treasure Island) is an abandoned Disney island located off the coast of Walt Disney World in Bay Lake, Florida, where Treasure Island is set. In 2003, four years after the resort's closure in 1999, the Supernatural Studies Association uses the derelict island as the setting for their new intern Jake Smith to understand the basics of the job, instructing him to keep watch over it for five (later six) nights while they bring more equipment out to the island. However, Jake is wholly unprepared for the horrors that await him at the once-loved island attraction. In Oblitus Casa, one year after Treasure Island, Jake Smith hast to deal with both new threats, and two (later three) returning faces. and in Addendum: Discovery Island, ten years after the events of FNaTI, The Protagonist encounters some new horrors on the island.

Trivia[]
The logo from the panel in the Office.
- The Disney production the original resort of Treasure Island is based on has its name coined from a book called Treasure Island published on November 14th, 1883 written by Scottish author, Robert Louis Stevenson.
- Prior to its acquisition by Disney in 1965 as part of the strategic acquisitions involved in the construction of Walt Disney World and the setup to the events of the game, the original island traded hands several times and was also repurposed multiple times.
- In 1887, the island was granted to Henry B Plant by the Floridian Internal Improvement Fund as part of their plan to help Plant extend his railroad system into Section 12, an area of land that included all of Bay Lake. However, as the island was of no use to Plant for railroad purposes, he sold it and it alone to Charles Lackey.
- Lackey then owned the property for 16 years before selling it to Peter Keen in 1903, who owned the island for only three years before himself selling it to Joel Riles in 1906. The island, formerly unnamed, thus became Riles Island.
- Joel Riles later failed to pay his taxes on the property in 1914, resulting in it being reclaimed by the State of Florida a year later and resold to W.H. Reams, although Riles, seemingly unaware of the island's repossession, attempted to resell it to a man named Jim Geer.
- After legal troubles and changing hands several times from 1915 to 1937, Section 12, and the island with it, was bought by Delmar "Radio Nick" Nicholson, who named it Idyl (or Idle) Bay Isle and hosted the local Girl Scout Leaders’ annual overnight trip on it during the mid 1940s.
- Due to financial problems, Nicholson later sold the island in 1949 to the Thomasons of Oklahoma, although he continued to reside there and was even granted Power of Attorney by the Thomasons in 1950, which was later revoked in 1953. The island's name as the face of Nicholson's Idyl Bay Isle properties also ended as Nicholson officially dissolved Idyl Bay Isle in 1952.
- From there, the island formerly named Idyl Bay Isle was sold to a large group of locals known as the Bay Isle Club, who sought to manage local campsites on the edge of Bay Lake but would keep the island itself private for their own use.
- The island was once again bought in 1965, this time by the Walt Disney Corporation, from the Bay Isle Club.
- After it officially opened in 1974, Treasure Island was originally themed after the eponymous Robert Louis Stevenson novel, but was later renamed Discovery Island when it was repurposed into a zoological park, then closed and abandoned in 1999. The official reasons for the island's closure and abandonment include poor attendance, high maintenance costs, and the opening of Disney's larger and much more popular Animal Kingdom resort the year prior. However, the events of the game suggest that the true reason for the island's closure and subsequent abandonment are the Disney corporation's attempts to isolate, contain and imprison the supernatural characters that can be found on it by the time of the game's events in 2003.
- People commonly confuse Discovery Island as being the island talked about in Abandoned by Disney and CORRUPTUS, however, this is not the case. Instead, the stories refer to the now demolished Treasure Island in the Bahamas.
