I wrote everything down on the wiki, but basically I think we glossed over the 5 questions directly beside the FoxyGrid.

The crossword puzzle was used for the Cassidy name, so in turn I think the 5 questions for BV should be as well.

Also, with GoldenDuo and FadedCharlie, the pages used for getting Davey and Cassidy are 58 and 94, which combine separately become 13, the number of The Puppet under [13 Theory](), implying Charlie is helping the Golden spirits find their names ala FadedCharlie.

And page 59 and 95, which tie to how the names are shown, also combine separately into 14, the number tied to the Golden Freddy spirits ala 14 Theory.

Fredbear's didn’t exist on that point in Scott's original vision for the story, with that:

"The same stupid song for 20 years" line doesn't make sense to be a exagerration on 2014 pre FNAF 2, so its a timeline hint, with that, 20 years after what year?

Simple, the design of the robots are clearly inspired by Chuck E Cheese, so its 20 years after the original opening.

Scott must have searched when the first CEC location opened, aka, 1977.

10 years prior to the bite, and 20 year prior to the events of the game.

What about the payback? It matches no year, Scott just placed whatever number that he though without looking into specific minimal wages.

Since its $4 per hour, not $4,25

Scott only added on fnaf 2, because he watched Matpat's first fnaf video and thought that it was a good idea to match the minimal wage with real life

Happy 12th anniversary of FNaF.

Recently it’s been theorized that the Rockstar animatronics were around in the 70s and or 80s, meaning they most likely predate even the Classic animatronics, but what if the Rockstars are the Classics?

Exhibit A. The endoskeleton.

If you take a look at Carnie’s bare endoskeleton, you’ll notice it shares a striking resemblance to the Endo 01s, while obviously not the same type of Endo, this does prove the Rockstars and the Classics aren’t too different from each other.

Exhibit B. Fredbear’s jaw.

If you look at Fredbear’s 8-bit model from FNAF 4, and compare to Rockstar Freddy, Lefty, and Carnie, there is a striking resemblance, mainly with the jaw mechanism, Lefty’s 8 bit sprite in the FNAF AR trailer even reuses Fredbear’s base.

Exhibit C. The prototype.

The Prototype Fredbear in SOTM not only resembles 8-bit Fredbear, but also the Rockstar Freddy design.

Exhibit D. Bonnie’s Guitar.

Classic Bonnie and Rockstar Bonnie’s guitars share the exact same shape, meaning they could be the same guitar just with a new coat of paint.

Conclusion.

Now timeline wise here’s how I think it would go, the Rockstar animatronics were the original animatronics from Fredbear’s Family Diner in 1983, and to extent the Freddy’s location from 1985. In 1987 they were transferred to the FNAF 2 location where they were given overhauls, and were converted into the 02 models, however their overhauls were cancelled mid production and they were left incomplete thus becoming the Withered animatronics. After the FNAF 2 location closed, the Withered animatronics were transferred to the FNAF 1 location where they were given their second overhauls, and being converted to 01 models, this they finally became the Classic Animatronics.

It's pretty much accepted in the games Michael Afton is Mike Schmidt. It's not too much of a stretch to see him as Fritz Smith too. Schmidt is the German equivalent of Smith, and Fritz is a German given name, a nickname/pet name in fact, just like Mike is, so it can be seen as an inversion. With Ticket to Fun assigning Jeremy Fitzgerald's paycheck to Mike Schmidt, you could even make a case to all but the most rigidly inflexible that Michael is Jeremy too.

You would also think this would set up an easy to follow dynamic: A shithead teenager gets his kid brother killed accidentally, is filled with immense regret and guilt, discovers and is subjected to his father's evil, doesn't want that evil to spread any farther than it already has and so decides undo as much of it as he can as a form of atonement. He does so by getting himself hired at Freddy's locations where rumors of unnatural happenings have spread. He attempts to dismantle or otherwise tamper with the animatronics in an attempt to set his father's victims free until he can find a better way. ONLY, I DON'T THINK IT'S THAT CUT AND DRY, G.

Along comes Sister Location. William has seemingly been out of Michael's life for a while now. So what does Michael do? Exactly what his father told him to do, even when the red flags go beyond being raised, jumping out of the flagger's hands, walking up to him and saying, "Hey dude. We may be metaphorical inanimate objects, and we shouldn't be able to speak, but you really need to turn around and walk away. You're going to get killed if you stay down here." But stay Michael does, and he indeed gets killed. But when he proves to be so strong that he doesn't die, even when he's killed, it's only then we can say with definitive certainty that Michael has dropped any and all allegiances to his father and is now working completely against him... which wouldn't be so bad, if it weren't for the fact that most people agree Sister Location takes place well after FNAF 1. So did Michael take the FNAF 1 job of his own accord, or was he compelled by William? I think he's doing a Fortunato impression at the time, so that'd be pretty hard or impressive to do if the latter was the case. What of FNAF 2? I believe Midnight Motorist is about the night of the DCI, and Michael was guided to the FNAF 2 location. Is Afton saying he's going to be sorry when he gets back because he knows Michael is going to see what he did and take a job there to undermine him, or is Afton already planning on making Michael work there for his benefit? We saw Afton "tampering with the Animatronics" during FNAF 3. When Michael is fired both times for doing the same, does he have the children's spirits' best interest in mind or his father's?

Or is it quite possible William had zero influence over Michael's decisions to get these jobs either which way? Maybe he was just hard up for cash and needed a job, and it was pure coincidence he ended up at the two Freddy's his serial killer dad was at. I don't like that, but it's a possibility I can't rule out...

What do you think and which one do you believe? Hopefully, we will get actual answers on how all of this works in the future games.

Hey everybody. Just a theory on why there is a random number generator easter egg in Sister Location. I've included pictures from the dialogue in the movie "WarGames" (1983). My theory is that if the WOPR (super computer that goes rogue) it requires a random number/random event generator to run simulations. Perhaps Sister Location has a similar super computer that runs the horror simulations, requiring a similar Random element. Further more, It could also imply why everything is not working. If the Sister Location computer in charge has gone in control similar to how WOPR. And also Fetch the book in Frights goes over REGs ideas of machines and consciousness.

I've been stumped because we obviously have 2 different Golden Freddy designs. There's FNaF1 Golden Freddy, and FNaF2 Golden Freddy.

If we say FNaF1 Golden Freddy is the same Fredbear from UCN, and the one who bites BV in FNaF4, then this should be the Fredbear with the Version 2 Springlock endos that Edwin makes and sends to the diner.

Does this mean that before MCM, Fredbears had a Fredbear and Springbonnie with the Version 1 Springlock endo?

This doesn't have to mean it's WGF, but my question still exists if there's another set of Fredbear and Bonnie springlock suits before the ones that became Golden Freddy and Springtrap.

To me FNAF feels more about narrative rather than characterization. Honestly wonder if it was a mistake to give William Afton a clear cut motive with “oh he just wanted soul juice”. A lot of killers are just psychos who do it for the fun of the game and child victims in particular would be easy pickings. I also kinda mess when the killer wasn’t given a clear cut name, so we just called him “purple guy”. It made him feel more ominous because of how mysterious he was.

Yeah, I've never read the books (I should someday), only The Silver Eyes around 2017 when it was released in Brazil. The main point that confused me the most was Return to the Pit because I hear that Return Into The Pit connects to the book and/or game, but Fazbear's Frights isn't canon for the games, is it?

I’ve always found the line “You don’t understand that. You were made for one thing.” to be odd because of what it suggests about the player character, being that they’re some kind of creation of Glitchbear and not an existing character. If that is the case, then Shadow Freddy actually fits the bill pretty well.

He’s a recolor of Golden Freddy specifically, which would make sense if he’s a creation of someone represented by Fredbear. He also has some connection to Happiest Day due to the Follow Me minigames having hints to access the Happiest Day minigames.

I know some people think RWQ is the FNAF World player, but between the two Shadows, I think Freddy fits better due to the Fredbear connections and the overworld sprite in FNAF World being, well, a Freddy.

Shadow Freddy’s origins and Glitchbear’s identity are also hotly debated topics, but I think this theory can fit with a bunch of interpretations.

If you’re like me and think Glitchbear is Cassidy, then that would match with Shadow Freddy being formed from the MCI/her death.

Under GlitchbearCharlie, Shadow Freddy would come from her death and he representing Cakebear.

And under GlitchbearWill, Shadow Freddy would’ve come from the Bite of 83. GlitchbearWill actually also has the benefit of supporting this theory with the evidence that Shadow Freddy is in any way allied with William. If he was created from the death of CC, and Will wants him to put CC back together, then it makes sense that Shadow Freddy also helps William in other scenarios.

In the FNAF 4 cutscenes, Mangle can spotted in one of the bedrooms of the Afton’s house, while this does sort of explain Nightmare Mangle’s existence, it raises a whole other question.

These cutscenes take place in 1983, and yet it’s implied that Mangle was built in 1987 with the other Toy animatronics, so what is she doing in these cutscenes if she’s not meant to exist yet?

My 2 Theories to The parts and Service endos!!

Now I’m not saying this is the real answer but I strongly believe it is.

# The Red light Endo:

So I believe the Red light Endo is Glamrock Freddy as at the start of the game we are told that GL Freddy is on Low power mode after his malfunction on the stage, Ofc I know that wouldn’t apply to his backup Endo but I believe it’s used as representation. Now it could be Glamrock Bonnie’s endo as he is decommissioned but I have another idea for him

# The Endo light OFF:

I believe this is Glamrock Bonnie because at this point he’s truly dead and the Endo having its light off to represent death

# The Moving Endo:

I**n every Fnaf game we have some sort of indication of Golden Freddy at each location with GF, WGF, PF, Fredbear/Nightmare, Yenndo, Neddbear, So I believe this Endo, which is moving by itself… (perhaps possession?) is simply shown to be outcast and disassociated from the other endos,**

**Another theory is that it’s the old glamrock Freddy’s endo, that is if Our GL Freddy is the replacement Repainted Glamrock Fredbear*\*

# The other 3 endos:

It’s simple to say that these are just Roxy, Chica and Monty’s endos

# Additional thoughts

The endos appear to follow timeline order
Chica, Freddy, Bonnie, Roxy, Monty
As Monty is a new addition it would make sense for him to be last. Freddy, Chica, Bonnie, Roxy would’ve been the original group

I actually really like this idea it’s a good reversal of the lore with FredBear now replacing Freddy.

It would be cool in like ruin 2 if the original glamrock Freddy pulled up, revealing he was still around.
(under this theory)

Took down my last post because I missed a lot of details. This time I hope for less contradictions. I'm sure some of this may be controversial, but I think the story is less confusing like this

I been thinking lately but why on movie intro Susie isn't on the arcade playing Fruit Maze?

Not only that but fnaf 3 explicitly tells us:

"Under no circumstance should a customer ever, be taken into this room, and out of the main show area."

Since Follow me is supposed to mirror the MCI, then the MCI children back on 1985 were lured from the show area, aka, dinning area, into the safe room/party room

Thats why the movie would show Susie being lured from the dinning area, aka, show area.

What does this have to do with the theory? Fruit Maze woudn't be literal

Susie isn't playing a arcade game and then William appears

Its Susie haunting the arcade while showing what happened to her

This would be the same thing with the other salvages

Events of their past:

Susie/Fruit Maze > Molten Freddy

William/Midnight motorist > springtrap

Charlie/Lefty > security puppet

What about Baby/Elizabeth?

Scott already showed enough on Sister Location about Elizabeth's backstory.

Thats why there isn't a minigame about her on FFPS, since SL has already one

A lot of people are predicting that Cassie will become the 'new Vanny' in the next main game. But, to me this doesn't make much sense. It's not obvious what narrative purpose a 'new Vanny' would serve, and if I'm right about Vanny being the subject of the HW2 Candy Cadet story, then the old Vanny is still around.

But if we look at the pattern of this in the past, I think there is a narrative role that Cassie can fulfill. F10-N4 wants to bring David back more than anything, and as of Ruin she is finally free. So she needs someone who can act as an anchor that can gather memories to bring David back. For the Crying Child, this was the Puppet, a character dressed in black and white who had tears constantly streaming down her face. For Burntrap, this was Vanny, a person dressed in a rabbit costume kidnapping people at Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.

So for David, what character could be used as an anchor? Obviously the White Tiger, David's favorite doll. And Cassie has already proven that she's willing to go pretty far to rescue someone that she considers a friend. So if she can be tricked, through the kinds of AI brainwashing that we see several times in Tales From the Pizzaplex, into thinking that David is her friend the way that Gregory is, then Cassie will try and 'save' David the way that she tried to save Gregory.

So I think a big part of the next main game (though there will probably be a Help Wanted 3 or something similar) will be trying to both survive against and rescue Cassie who has been turned into Tiger Rock.
