In Five Nights at Freddy’s 4, there are several mysteries that have been solved, but one of the remaining hotly debated topics is who is the one who told the Crying Child “I will put you back together.” While many people believe it’s someone speaking through the Fredbear plush, the fact that the text color is a different shade of yellow implies that it may not actually be connected to the Fredbear plush itself.
While it’s widely accepted that William is likely the one speaking through the Fredbear plush based on the private room in Sister Location, I think that someone else is promising to put the Crying Child back together, someone who we have seen has the power to do just that.
But hey, that’s just a theory. A GAME THEORY-

I always imagined that William was speaking to the Crying Child by using the Fredbear plush, as we see in sister location there is a Fredbear plush in the private room.
I think he is as well, but with the darker yellow text throughout the rest of the game
@@IDsFantasy yeah, good point
@@IDsFantasy yes but later on there is one mini game in Pizza sim. that we play as William but he’s not purple but instead he’s the same colored yellow as within that text. So actually it is William talking to his son, telling him he will put him into or turn him into an animatronic (as seen in some of the books, and the fact that some of his remnant is in golden Freddy) ^w^

Its easy to find out
I honestly prefer to think that Crying Child didn't immediately possess Fredbear because he wasn't close enough to the suit. I prefer to think that he became Shadow Freddy and wandered around as a spirit before coming back to the pizzeria at which point he was close enough to be pulled into Fredbear. This experience allowed him to be able to exit the golden freddy body as shadow freddy, a skill he would somehow teach Cassidy to use while they shared the suit. I think this because of the Shadow Freddy in ths purple guy death minigame walking around and specifically trying to get the other animatronics to find Afton. Also, Cassidy's soul appears from nowhere with the other 4, so where else could she have come from? Golden Freddy wasn't torn apart.
Neat!
Nice theory
Older comment so sorry, but this is something I was thinking about recently because it adds a potentially depressing new layer to FNAF3’s minigames, like CC thought his dad would be able to help his friends without realizing he’s the reason they’re dead.

It makes sense. Golden Freddy left the biggest impression on his young mind.
Wow.
You know a community is crazy when they use slightly different shades of text color
It's a fun time lol
Remember when there were the Purple and Pink Guy (from the FANF 2 minigames) as separate entities?
That doesn’t easily happen in game development, scott would have hex codes memorised for each character

What do you think about the SL ending where Michael says “I put her [liz] back together, just like you asked me to”? To me, that makes it seem like it was William talking, along with the plush being in his office
I think William is talking through the plush in the rest of the game, but I don't think it's him in this particular instance. To me it seems more likely he's the one manipulating CC into being scared of the restaurant so he doesn't end up spilling whatever he saw. If the text color were the same, I'd think it was William, but as it stands, I think "put back together" is just referring to the whole spirit-animatronic thing in both instances.
I'm not opposed though. Either way I think the plushies are representative lol
Thank you for commenting!
@@IDsFantasy now its just up to finding who said it now lol
Who tf is Liz
But doesn't he start thr monologue saying;
"Father, its me, Michael..."
@@_just_daniel_ hes talking about elizabeth
That’s sounds very interesting! One thing that does stick right is the plush saying « I’m still here » and Elizabeth sayung « I’m still here » in SL, which is probably just a coincidence anyway!
Could be parallels potentially!
I *really* like this idea, because when Matpat originally covered this ending, he was EXTREMELY unsure of who it would have been, especially because he knew very well that it being William wouldn't make sense because of the color.
And we never have gotten a confirmed color coordination for Charlie/The Puppet, but even so, it makes sense for them to be speaking through the plush because it already seems to communicate to the C.C.. So even if Charlie/The Puppet's speech was associated with green (like we saw in Pizzeria Simulator), it would still make sense for the speech to be the color that it is, because they speak through the plush.
Yep! And even then, green could be the Puppet's rather than Charlie's speech :D
I think that the plush talking to the Crying Child was either a hallucination he had of his plush speaking to him, but I never realized the text colors were different. This is an interesting concept and I'd like to know more about this theory. Thank you!
I'm glad I could point it out! I might elaborate more on it in the future. Thank you!
Another theory is that the person who is speaking to the crying child during this scene is William Afton himself, claiming to put the Child's body back together quite literally in the form of a robot.
I've heard that theory, but to me it makes more sense for William to be the speaker with the darker yellow text given that seems to come from the plush itself and there's the walkie talk by the plush in Sister Location. Plus there isn't much evidence that CC got turned into a robot kid as of FNAF 4, and I think if he was in Security Breach, it's not the same robot from way back when with how similar Gregory's silhouette is to one of the missing people on the newspaper
Thank you for commenting :D
@@IDsFantasy Don’t know if you’ll see this, but I just thought of this while reading your comment.
What if William is both voices for the golden Freddy/ Fredbear plush? William would likely change his voice when speaking through the plush so his son wouldn’t know his dad was talking to him. This allows for William to have a different text when he talks about putting the crying child back together, since he would likely be there talking to his son and not using the plush.
A little parallel to this would be the story “The Real Jake” from Fazbear Frights #6. I believe Jakes dad changed his voice when taking through plush, allowing his son to differentiate the plush voice from his dad’s voice. Just a little thought.
There’s a also a Fred bear plush speaker in fang sister location
The "Two soul" theory for Golden Freddy might actually be true.. I think CC possesed Fredbear, as he died from him. And Golden Freddy was literally just a remake of Fredbear, but they renamed it so people wouldn't think of the Bite Of 83. Golden Freddy was made from the scraps of Fredbear, and Cassidy possesed Golden Freddy as well.
(Sorry if this is wrong)
I can imagine CC and Cassidy fighting like roommates in the golden Freddy suit. I find that idea funny
Yeah XD
I agree. It's also worth noting that we're never given a timeframe for how long the crying child is left comatosed in the hospital, nor how long a soul can linger after death before being put into a vessel. As such this theory works regardless of how big of a time gap exists between the crying child's death and his soul being linked with Golden Freddy.
i think its safe to assume that with the damage done to his head, he would have had to not been in a coma for too long, before dying from blood loss and/or brain damage. but i do think it would help if there was a clue or something on how long a soul can be left before being able to be possesses, as thats a big factor too.
@@contorts He was in hospital with an IV drip as shown by the FNaF 4 easter egg, so I don't think blood loss would have been his direct cause of death.
He could potentially have suffered irreversible brain damage leading to his permanent comatosed state. Given Michael had a chance to say sorry before the flatline is heard, it leads me to believe his plug was pulled once recovery was deemed impossible.
@@Omentallic i forgot to consider the IV, pills, and flowers. so your probably right on eliminating blood loss as a factor. so most likely he died from the severe damage done to his head.
Yep!
I've most people say that it's either Charlie or William.
Yeah, that's what I've heard as well. I think it's William during the rest of the game based on the Fredbear plush with a walkie talkie in SL, but Charlie in this scene with the difference in text color :D
Im pretty sure it’s William talking to him before he died in the hospital at the end of his coma
@@EvaTheFennecFox I agree. I think CC is the first death so this being the spark to make William the killer he became really makes a lot of sense for why he was even putting the bodies in suits to begin with. Like, he could've hid them anywhere else and throughout the games (at least what we can see from him) he isn't afraid and infact seems to know exactly how they work and what he is doing.
@@cpt.bigbrain5954I agree :)
@@IDsFantasyI don’t think it’s Charlie because Charlie would’ve still been alive at this point, and she didn’t die until a little bit after CC’s death.
When I first saw this scene, I always thought the plushies disappearing and the grey text was each of Mike's friends talking to cc in hospital, as they were all wearing masks of the characters and the yellow was only there to mark those lines out as either important lines, or as someone else who was important to that scene talking
Grey is established to be Mike's dialogue color, and I'm not sure why his friends would be there
I agree that it's the Puppet speaking, that and the speaker returns in FNaF World with the Puppet's eye movement.
However, despite their promise, they tell the FNaF World player, who I believe to be Mike, to put CC back together, rather than actually doing it themselves.
(It's kinda symbolic of Mike making up for the past by helping his brother.)
Plus, we know it has to be a male who puts the pieces back together, as the dialogue text "He put the pieces back together." in the notepad files for the FNaF World Update 2 teaser, alongside the open FNaF World Box in the game files, implies that this is the case.
Technically the Puppet is a he even if the spirit isn't, but yep
@@IDsFantasy Yeah.
The text actually belongs to the red haired pigtails girl from fnaf 4, I am actually working on a theory about who she is which will probably be posted somewhere around Christmas or new year. The same green text is used for two characters in the game, but pigtails girl tells us about roomers that the animatronics are possessed and kill people at night, and so maybe she does have some importance in the lore.
Since there are a few characters who share text colors in the game like you said, I don't take that too seriously. To me what seems important is that the text color is different than the rest of the times the plush seems to speak. I don't really see how she would be able to put CC back together and all 😅
@@IDsFantasy I think the kids with colored masks in hapiest day represent the kids from fnaf 4 who did say they will come but did not, connecting each one to another the pigtails girl would be the orenge mask kid who is actually the sits the closest to the main table with mci and perhaps crying child as the happiest day is perhaps representing the fnaf 4 birthday, in fnaf world we are setting up clock which represents the fnaf 3 minigames so that we could put cc back togather, so happiest day has confections to the phrase, it is possible that she could have helped set up the hapiest day for cc
@@IDsFantasy Ah wow I totally forgot they shared the same color id, but I never noticed or come across anyone point out that 2 characters that are for sure different(green shirt kids) share the same dialogue color. Two people can have the same voice, but one person having two voices does seem like the one thing we can say for sure. That really changes a lot.
Ooooo I'm guessing ur theory springtime is that the FNAF 4 kids maybe the FNAF 3 happiest day party table kids. I dunno about pigtail girl specifically setting up happiest day, as the only connection is a shared dialogue color, which multiple characters can have. However we for sure know the toys did help out though, and they may be the save them kids, who maybe the FNAF 4 kids like suspicious similarities such as balloon kid resembling bb, and a girl is playing with toy animatronics. The party may be bv's as well, as it takes place in a layout of fredbear's but backwards, and the logbook faded text says "the party was for you" to presumably the altered text who may be bite victim.
@@gdeveloper3309 yeah. I actually thought about something even more, what if the table kids possessed the animatronics we play in mini games? The color of kids cloths from the happiest day match the color of clothes of kids from different minigames. Which may help connect which kids possessed who, this actually would connect green crocodile mask kid with golden freddy… which kinda matches with the books where the revengeful spirit wears a green crocodile mask. This is all just a theory of course
She really do? I mean, she tells us? But I'm pretty sure that the animatronics started to be possesed when William killed Charlotte or when Crying Child died so that was about 1983, I think that crying Child was the first kid to posses an animatronic
MatPat theorized about this as well and came to the conclusion that it might be William speaking through the Fredbear Plush. There was a story in the Fazbear Frights books where a dad who had to go to military while his son was in the hospital, bought a plush in which he can speak through it with the child without revealing the identity of the father. As the „mustard man“ from the midnight motorist minigame is theorized to be William again and as the tone of his text looks very similar to the one we see in FNAF 4, it could be William making that promise to put him back together.
Yeah, just wanted to bring that up. I like your theories and vids. Keep up the great work 👍
I think it's William during the darker yellow portions where the plush is being more manipulative, but the color change to light yellow and the more soothing dialogue make me think that the light yellow is someone else, and since Charlie is shown to have to ability, it makes sense to me for it to be her :D
Thank you! I will do my best to keep it up :D
You know, you might be my favorite youtuber to listen too. There's something warm about how you talk and explain things.
Thank you!
This was probably my favorite video you ever made. The way you question things that are so widely accepted, and always come to a better, more interesting conclusion, is just amazing to me. Keep up the good work! ❤
Thanks! Will do
feels good to be back at fnaf theories. where was your channel OMG Im glad I found this
Thank you! I'm glad you like it :D
Game theory’s got me convinced it’s William. Something about the shade of yellow matching the shade used to represent his text in the past. But more importantly I think is that it makes thematic sense, because it’s essentially the same thing he tried with Elizabeth.
I see where you're coming from and somewhat agree, but the thing is to me it makes much more sense if William is the dark yellow throughout the rest of the game based on the plush having a walkie talkie in SL, and I don't see why the text color would change to a light yellow if it's still William
One representation I saw in a fan Comics that talk a lot of creative Liberties was that the crying child was essentially dependent on his plushies or he didn't trust the spirits and so whenever Charlie and the other Souls attempted to communicate with him to help him move on he would just freak out and so Charlie instead uses the plushies as a creative medium to allow them to communicate with the crying child without scaring them and having him trust them so that way she can do her job of helping him move on without leaving him completely terrified because as far as he's aware he thinks his stuffed animals are talking to him and considering he is a little kid he likely played with those same plushies and imagined them talking with him in his games so he dosent question it
That's cute!
@@IDsFantasy it's pretty old but it still holds up I'd say I found a Playlist should be one of the episodes it was a series
ruclips.net/p/PLF44ulWkYPOMbmet3EenPtn6PgzRRCRKc
For anyone curious it's called springaling and I can only describe it as a sitcom about springtrap being trapped in fazbear frights with Charlie/phantom puppet?
this is like 4 months late, but I like the idea that Charlie talked to c.c in the end.
A creator named Gost talks about all the characters who could be and points out some evidence that it could be Charlie that hasn't been discussed yet.
Ghost video: ruclips.net/video/l_oYPs0va4A/видео.html
1) we see the Fredbear plush sit on a grandfather clock and the only other character to do with a grandfather clock is the puppet(Charlie) as it's the song that keeps it at bay.
2) In the nightmarionnet teaser we get a single Freddy plush that needs to be brightened up to see the nightmarionnet and when doing so the plushie becomes yellow
they then point out the connections the two have. the idea that Charlie being the Freadbear plush and the puppet would match up with c.c looking like the puppet but possessing Freadbear. There is also the fact we know they died around the same time era of 1982-1983. And from what I remember of the original trilogy robot Charlie had a big fear of Foxy as it cuts her arm (this could be wrong its been a while since I read the books) connecting her more with c.c.
Robot Charlie actually has some connection to the Afton brothers especially Micheal as both are trying to uncover their father's sins and then have animatronics attempt to kill them. Charlie is tormented by the twisted one which represents the nightmares that William used on at least one of his sons at some point and then was brought to an Underground area like in SL. She even wears a purple shirt like Micheal and is "killed" in a very similar way with a stomach/chest injury that involves Elizabeth and then both cheat death with Micheal being a rotting purple corpse and Chraile seemly to move on to the 4th robot body that still wears purple.
Neat!
this does make a lot of sense.
according to me, it's either that, or william himself speaking, but not from the fredbear plush. the crying child is representing him as the plush and the other plushs fading simply shows that william starts murdering.
so it's either william becoming crazy, or like you said the puppet trying to help the crying child.
I think William is the one speaking during the rest of the game, so with the change in text color, I think it's a change in speaker, but that's a neat interpretation as well
I also figured something out, which you probably have already, but remember in FNAF 4 when C.C keeps getting jump scared by Michael in the Foxy mask? (I think it was Michael in the mask) Well, if you notice as the nights go on, Foxy becomes more persistent, and I think it's because of the trauma he had with Foxy. I think we play as Michael in FNAF 4 if I'm correct, so we reflect on how persistent we were in scaring C.C with Foxy. I could be wrong but it makes sense.
That's an neat idea. My thought was that it came from Mike's experience in FNAF 1 where Foxy does get more aggressive as the nights go on, but that could possibly play a role as well with how other parts of Mike's memories make there way into the nights.
Thank you for commenting!
@@IDsFantasy oh that could play a role. Most definitely. I mean FNAF 4 is time-stamped before FNAF 1 I think so that makes perfect sense
Yeah, the mini games are definitely 83. They do seem to be flashbacks being had post-FNAF 1 thought what with the animatronics having similar designs and behavior and Phone Guy's Night 1 call being in the ambiance. There's probably a variety of factors going into things tbh XD
now I know this is a stretch, but what if.... just WHAT IF... the person who is speaking to crying child through the plush is Michael? I know it doesn't make much sense for him to be saying sorry and then just to speak to him through the plush, but it really could be! multiple times we've heard, "you're broken" from some sort of animatronic, plush or person. I know it's widely accepted that the person is William speaking through the plush but I have EVIDENCE.
1. in Security Breach, while Gregory was in Glamrock Freddy, Freddy says, "I feel you are broken." there's a theory that Glamrock Freddy is Michael Afton.
2. in the fourth closet, though he doesn't say "your broken," a (dead, tho it probs doesn't matter) child named MICHAEL says, "I have to put them back together."(p. 175 of the graphic novel) you can also find the fredbear plush say, "I will put you back together"
3. (this isn't really part of my theory, just a little mini theory) in the fourth closet, Michael possesses golden Freddy. this could be a stand in for the crying child because we still don't know his name(it's been 8 years, Scott >:( ) or it could also be literally just a name. though I don't think so, being that the name Michael is usually only reserved for one person... Michael Afton.
so yeah, those are my theories! hope they make sense! :)
It's a neat idea, but Mike is established as the grey text,so I find think it's possible...
Thank you for commenting!
I remember MatPat talking about the fact that the shade looked similar to the text that the one NPC with pigtails had. And idk how but that girl ended up also being the same one some of us ended agreeing that it was an old version of Elizabeth (especially since she looked kind of like Baby)
Yeah. The reason I don't think it's her in this scene is there are two other characters who share a text color
Honestly, you are extremely underrated. I mean you are as good as matpat in this and sometimes even better yet you still only get like a millionth as much as him
Thank you! To be fair, I've been doing this for a much shorter time than MatPat so I'm not surprised I don't get as much attention, but I'm glad you enjoy my content!
This is a very interesting theory and it had a lot of amazing points! I've heard another theory that would make sense too. According to Game Theory, Goldon Freddy was a little girl named Cassidy. When playing FNAF UCN, dying will take you to a death screen and sometimes there is a girl's face in the background. That face is Cassidy's face. Also, some animatronics say something about "the one you should not have killed," the one being Cassidy. Cassidy was killed by Afton and she possessed the Goldon Freddy suit. UCN is Afton's purgatory where he experiences the nightmares that he has caused. This purgatory is controlled by Cassidy. She is furious that Afton killed her and she wants him to pay for it. However by doing this, she is preventing her soul from being set free. When you catch the fish at the right moment when dealing with Old Man Consequences, it'll take you to a cutscene where you are Goldon Freddy and you talk to Old Man Consequences. He says, "Come and sit with me a while. Leave the demon to his demons. Rest your own soul. There is nothing else." He is telling Cassidy to move on; let Afton suffer on his own and set yourself free. I guess that it just depends on how you look at it tho, lol. I honestly really enjoyed what you had to say and it brought some very compelling ideas to the table :)
Thank you! I do think Cassidy is in Golden Freddy, but since both The Silver Eyes and Fazbear Frights have her death in 1985, I don't think she would be at play as of the time this happens, but eventually she and CC would both be in Golden Freddy
I'm glad you liked the video! Thank you for commenting :D
@@IDsFantasy that must have been akward.
Remember that in Sister Location, not only does William Afton have cameras pointing to the rooms that you are in during fnaf 4’s gameplay, but there’s a sort of radio/walkie talkie in the room. I always thought that was implying there was another one in the fredbear plush and it meant that it was Afton talking to his son. If you notice in the mini games between nights, the single spot where you see Afton putting a costume on someone, the bear disregards the scene, never mentions it, and doesn’t say a word during it.
Crying child was watched by willaim through the fredbear plushies, they had cameras, he kept trying to scare him so much with the nightmares to make him not go to fredbears because of what happened to elizabeth but he went anyway because micheal somehow convinced him, I think he went into a coma. Still fighting against the nightmares in it because that really traumatized him and who says they'll put him back together is willaim. But I do think this makes sense
That's actually exactly why I think it can't be William. If William was speaking to CC through the plushy that would make him the dark yellow text, not the light yellow in this scene
William never what his kids to die but he did possibly kill the 5 missing kids to try and bring back crying child but after trying he falls doing so then later regrets killing the 5 kids then he tries to set them free in the mini games of fnaf 3 but dies to to them bing mad at William for killing them. It's a theory a game theory but this is just a small theory I have
Possibly, though given the way William in the novel trilogy acts and the general way he's characterized, I find it likely he's more selfish than that
Thank you for commenting :D
To be fair, William tries to kill Micheal several times and even knows it's him in FNAF 6.
If gregbot were to be true, burn trap tried to kill bv as well.
Springtrap probably didn't have much to do with freeing the spirits, but i think you may be talking about shadow bonnie. Since William was alive in FNAF 2, and shadow Bonnie was present as well, it follows that they are separate entities. As well Mike, the most likely candidate for FNAF 3 guard, did most of setting up happiest day.
Williams character still is very evil, even later on in the franchise, and never even shows remorse.
I probably think william probably doesn't have any remorse.
As well, William in the novels and faz frights, most likely doesn't have bite victim as a child, making his motivation probably not bringing his dead son back to life.
Yep
He’s here he’s there he’s everywhere, who you gonna call, psychic friend Fredbear
Yep lol
Edit: this is just meant to be what I think the events of fnaf 4 are, I completely forgot what the video was talking about and started typing my mind lmao
I'd like to think of it as following what happened to the family after the events in the flashbacks in the book trilogy. Like, CC is Sammy in the aftermath of the kidnapping of Charlie, which is what explains the crying and the fear of the animatronics. It would also explain why there's a broken Mangle on the floor, Charlie loved to play with the animatronics and if she didn't like them, Henry would take them apart for parts. Foxy kid would still be Michael Afton, either before Elizabeth gets killed just playing pranks on a mourning kid cuz hes a big bully, or the aftermath of Elizabeth's death, with him bullying to try and cope with a dead family member?
👍
Interesting. Though Mike is confirmed to be CC's brother, so I'm not sure CC could be Sammy Emily
It's also theorized to be william, who actually cared for his children (past tense) and wanted to bring back his child so he claimed to put him back together, that also explains the color similarities with michael's visualized voice since william and michael are related
I think William makes more sense as the dark yellow. It would be a bit weird if he called himself his son's friend lol
As for similarity to Mike, Mike's is grey so I'm not sure what you're talking about
@@IDsFantasy weird... last time i saw it it was kind of gold-ish, may have misremembered that part
Lol, I remember way back when one of the wikis about FNAF (the Villains wiki, I think) had an article on the Puppet. The article wrote that the spirit of the Puppet possessed the Fredbear Plush with the white pinpricks as its eyes being a notable characteristic of The Puppet.
While I believe the article has long since been changed, I find it ironic(?) that I've been seeing more theories lately coming around back to this.
XD nice lol
Yeah, I don't think Charlie is literally possessing the plush, since the plush in the room in SL hints more to William being the reason behind it's weird behavior, but it makes sense that the lighter yellow would be someone who has the capability to link souls to animatronics. It's kinda funny how things can come full circle lol
That makes so much sense. That said, with the idea of children literally being rebuilt as robots that look human, the speaker could also be William. That's what I normally thought, at least.
I'm glad it does!
Tbh I would believe the speaker to be William if not for the change in text color. Plus there isn't much to indicate William would have that skill himself. Why not do that with Elizabeth in that case after all, you know? Though a quick glance at my Security Breach theories will show I definitely enjoy robot kids/people, so I do think stuff like that is involved later down the line lol
@@IDsFantasy *Warning I have written a lot*
*Relevant*
1. I've actually been trying to place as much evidence as possible into a single cohesive story. I don't know why I'm doing this to myself, but I understood the color change as William normally using a speaker in a nanny cam/stuffed toy, and then the final scene being him in person, next to the crying child's bed. The wording works for both, if somewhat more for the Puppet.
*Irelevant*
2. Also, in the hopes of this getting featured in a video or short, I'd like to point something out that I don't think anyone else had mentioned before. The older brother's skin darkens slightly between his first and last scenes, and his eyes start glowing. Just like Michael from Sister Location. Also, two out of three of his friends have glowing eyes.
I interpreted this as William's motive. Just like Henry with Charlie, something happened and William put the older brother back together. The timeline I'm writing includes testing on others before using his kid, keeping his wife "silent" when she finds out (Ballora), and wishing for his family to be immortal.
I interpreted him as loving his family, but going to far. Okay, so there's a little, nay, a lot of creative interpretation, but a man who was driven to murder out of loss, then attempted to rectify his sins (fnaf 3 cutscenes), leading to his death, haunted by his guilty murders, regretting them but would do it a thousand times over to bring his children back to him. That sounds better to me than "unknown motive" and it explains his fear of the ghosts.
Sorry for rambling.
Edit: I'm gonna keep rambling. I'm listing somewhere close to 6 to 8 theories that line up with what you said and fit like puzzle pieces.
3. As for the robot children, the books have Charlie, but the games have Michael, Gregory, and possibly Vanessa/Vanny, if you interpret the "reunion" ending that way. I thought that William knew how to make a realistic masculine robot, with all the normal human features that we don't normally think robots can do, but he was stumped on those features for a girl, explaining why Baby wasn't replaced by the time S.L happened, or the older brother didn die related to the animatronics at all, so he could be reborn in a body meant for him.
3.5 As writing this, I realized that Fazgoo could have been a test of that "biological features" sort of thing. Yes, my timeline can interpret the non-novel books finally!
4. I also thought the crying child was Cassidy, despite the feminine name clashing with the child's pronoun used by the brother being "he," but that's really the only person who could be the soul in G. Freddy.
4.5 Again, I just realized, fnaf 4, when the crying child saw his dad placing a suit on what was presumed to be another employee, and when he was locked in the closet, there was a brown tuft of what looked like hair. Could that be Cassidy?
4.5.5 *WAIT!* Her death would mean he still has a motive. He is trying to see if he can transport a soul from one body to another! He is trying to free Elizabeth, give her a proper body, the child version of Vanessa!
5. Vanessa being a robot would explain why William hacked her as Glitchtrap as well. I thought that he could slightly reprogram the older brother, who I think is Michael, to be mean to the crying child. He could have done the same thing to her. But that leaves the final tape in the V.R. game. Unless someone else helped her with the tapes, and she made that last one to keep suspicion off of her while she figured out how to get rid of her old partner. Glitchtrap could also leave a sort of copy to stay with the tapes for whoever finds them, but the copy is literally just him waving.
6. Speaking of getting rid of her partner, while I am yet to read the A.R. game's emails, having her use Glitchtrap to release a bunch of animatronics to hunt down and kill all who were involved with the V.R. game would explain why the A.R. game exists at all, and it would kill that partner I mentioned before.
6.5 just for fun, let's solve Mangle's gender. Mangle is a dog. Other than Ennard, no robot has more than one soul in it. I think. Ennard was made to carry multiple souls out of S.L. at the same time, so one murder per robot.
Mangle can split in two in the V.R. game. Ennard, with more than one soul, also does this. They removed Baby, so to split, a robot would need 2+ souls.
This is not solid evidence, as Mangle does it in the V.R. Title only, a game within a game where someone could've simply said "that looks like a fun challenge," but it is the only real evidence. Two bodies needs two souls.
Two souls, one death. The dog was pregnant with puppies, explaining how it could spit in two. It also explains why in fnaf 2, Mangle could be in your room and not kill you. The puppies don't want revenge, so they don't want to kill. The mother has to take control to attack.
Again, I'm sorry for rambling.
Due to this, we might be able to determine murder order (MURDER, not DEATH) via the order the plushies disappear (besides Charlie).Susie was first (checks out with voicelines), then Fritz, then Jeremy, then Gabriel.
Nice!
Being William afton kids must've suck badly..like imagine your older sibling traumatizing you everyday and accidentally killing you by putting your head inside of a Golden bear with a powerful bite force.
Yep
I literally thought of this while watching the short, so I have no idea if this is an established theory, but I haven't heard it anywhere
In sister location, we see that the Fredbear plush seems to be a baby monitor, possibly connected to the walkie talkie, allowing William Afton to speak through the plush. The difference in hue could represent the distortion (or lack there of) of William's voice.
He speaks through the plush to manipulate the crying child into fearing the pizzeria, in order to keep him out of the way. What we see at the end could be William speaking directly to the crying child, who sees the plush. Because that's who he associates the voice with, rather than his father.
This could be either because William puts on a voice when talking through the plush, and in an attempt to comfort his dying son, puts on the same voice. Or because William is so distant, the crying child hears his voice through the plush more often than in real life, and therefore has a closer bond to the plush.
I guess, but while I agree the dark yellow is William, that would make the color change pretty pointless. Why bother showing a change in voice color it's the same voice, when every other time there's a color change, it's because someone new is speaking, you know?
🎵🎶He's here, he's there, he's everywhere. Who you gonna call? Psychic Friend Fredbear!🎶🎵
Yep lol
I think it's just Afton talking, hence the yellow colour of Afton in Midnight motorist, and Afton being the one gathering remnant, and the walkie talkie next to the fredbear plush, in Afton's office, next to the monitor's showing crying child. Afton talks through the plush, and is represented sometimes by yellow, instead of purple.
The issue is, to me, William makes much more sense as the dark yellow text throughout the rest of the game
@@IDsFantasy
but why would all the animatronics be there, if the MCI happened in 1985, and the Bite happened in 1983..?
From what i understand william has a microphone in the fredbear plush which means every time fredbear talks except after the bite is likely william and your theory actully makes alot more sense with this context due to the change in color of text
Was it not the color font of the pigtails girl ?
There are a couple reused colors for other characters, but I think it's the fact that it's different than the original plush that's significant in this instance
I have been thinking of this before I saw this video and I totally agree!
Ayyyy, nice!
I have a feeling scott didn't mean anything by this and just accidentally set the color to that
Like how he mashed keyboard for shadow bonnies name for literally no reason whatsoever
I found you on my fyp and I’m currently binging all of your shorts and videos, you make awesome content keep it up!!!
Thank you!!!
I personally, imagine Crying Child’s FredBear plush being William speaking through the bear to persuade him to do things, (a fnaf book had this happen through a voodoo doll) like be afraid of Michael or go to FredBears to get him over his fear. And after he was bitten he was put into a coma and was seeing what you are talking about in the video, he gets chosen to be put in the animatronic with Cassidy. Michael and William are at his hospital bed. And William promised to put him back together. What I think he meant by this is as a robot. Maybe multiple. And is what I believe to be Gregory In Security Breach. A Crying Child Animatronic.
Edit: also what you said in the video is also pretty true from what I’ve researched on the Fnaf Lore.
I somewhat agree, though to me it makes more sense for him to be the dark yellow speaker, as such leaving the light yellow open to be Charlie :D
Wow that makes so much sense
I'm glad :D
The Fredbear plush is even literally the closest to CC in the scene while the others are farther away which of course symbolizes his connection to the plush/animatronic
Don't forget about the fnaf 4 halloween teaser, where if we raise the brightness of the immage we see nightmarionne behind the golden freddy plush
Ooooo yeah!
You respond to like every comment, mad respect
Thanks XD
@@IDsFantasy genuine
Earlier on you told me that the phantoms were hallucinations was Michael hallucinating after all he’s been through? By the way great video!
More or less yeah, but there's something else to it as well. In Fazbear Frights, there's a character who works at the FNAF 3 location who isn't Mike, and when he's brought to the location, he starts having hallucinations of his past. My theory is that Remnant can be twisted to make stuff like that happen since Remnant is often linked to memories
Thank you :D
Wa?!
GASP
Do you want to know what just occurred to me!
William Afton is Thanos! It’s the grape family reunion!
My guess would be that William Afton, Crying Child's father, is the one speaking through the animatronic throughout the game, based on the plush with the walkie talkie that we see in the Sister Location office.
I think the reason why it's a different shade of yellow, isn't because it's another character entirely, but it actually remains yellow because it's the same character, speaking to him out loud, instead of through the plush.
So, bascially, I'm proposing that William Afton spoke throughout the entire game, originally though the Fredbear plush, and in the end directly to Crying Child while in the hospital with him.
Fair, but to me it seems strange that William would call himself his son's friend
@@IDsFantasy True, but I wouldn't put it past William.
Also, the phrase "put back together" appears again in Sister Location, and is spoken by Micheal, his son. "I put her back together." Seemingly a phrase that either runs in the Afton family, or, perhaps, Micheal was told this phrase by his father, because William had it on his mind for many years after C.C's death.
Then there's the Dreadbear DLC, with the gameplay of giving life to an animatronic, which, idk why, but I think it might be a clue for how William tried to put his son back together.
Plus, there's a chance William called himself a friend to his son because he didn't want his son knowing it was him speaking.
I love how i was in the FNaF community like 4 years ago, and now my reccomendations are genshin, family guy and memes and then this comes up
XD
The text of "I will put you back together" is usually given to Henry or William.
This text ALSO is seen in FNaF_World after Henry, or "The Creator"(?) kills himself in Update 2/Before Update 2, and unleashes Circus Baby/Elizabeth out of FNaF_World and into the wider lore//FNaF:SL.
So most likely, "The Creator" was William, or at least Henry telling a symbolic story of William's creating of Baby and how Michael released all the Funtime bots from the basement Rental Location in the fifth game.
Where does Henry say it? And technically Mike also says it in SL. I think the phrase is just used to connect what's being done tbh
There isn't any yellow text that appears when Baby is announced in FNAF World, so I'm not sure what you're talking about? And the yellow text that does say the line in World doesn't really fit to be William.
Not to mention William makes much more sense as the dark yellow in FNAF 4 than the light yellow, so I'd be surprised if it was him. I could maybe see Henry, but not William
I have another theory involving Charlotte and Cassidy. My theory is that I don't think the two of them actually got along with each other. I've always felt like Charlie was more of a peaceful soul caring more about freeing the children and finding her father rather then getting revenge on William while Cassidy was more focused on revenge and perhaps didn't care who she had to hurt to get it. Also I think since Cassidy is probably much older then Charlie she probably didn't like the idea of some three year old bossing her around.
Very possibly lol
@@IDsFantasy Charlie and Michael are my two favorite characters in FNAF. I always thought Charlie had the most tragic backstory being bullied locked out in the cold dark rain, and then getting murdered by someone she thought she could trust I can't just help feeling so bad for her.
Meanwhile Michael has one of the greatest redemption arcs of all time, starting off as a bully tormenting his little brother to trying to right his father's wrongs, and being the brother to Gregory that he should have been to Crying Child if he is Glamrock Freddy.
Absolutely valid. They're some of my favorites as well. Their stories are engaging and it's just so cool!
@@IDsFantasy who do you think set the FNAF 3 fire? Some say it was Michael, some say it was Henry, some say it was Charlotte, and some say it was William himself.
I think it was Michael given that Springtrap/the FNAF 3 location shows up in Sister Location after Michael's speech
One theory I've seen about the meaning of this line involves dream theory.
Theoretically, fnaf 1-4 would be nightmares of cc in a coma after being bitten by fredbear, but this was retconned with fnaf sister location.
There is a theory that originally cc was supposed to have a deceased sister who would possess Fredbear's plush, the line "I will put you back together" would be the soul of cc dead sister promising to put his soul to rest.
but the line was retconned with sister location which established that the plush was William Afton, so, currently, "i will put you back together" is William Afton himself promising to revive the crying child.
I believe that the change in text color is an error and not something on purpose, character encyclopedia establishes that the plush says "you're broken, we are still your friends, i will put you back together"
I always thought the plushies disappearing represented the crying child’s friends and family stop visiting him while he’s in his coma.
Interesting
Yeah I believe that afton used a fredbear plush to spy on crying child and speak to him through it and I also believe that Charlotte aka the puppet was the one who promised to put the crying child back together.
🤝
(If you saw the previous comment, I got people's usernames mixed up since they're really similar, sorry about that XD)
@@IDsFantasy (it’s alright it happens lol.)
Also but the unanswered question is why did Charlotte help the crying child and promised to put him back together?
Probably the same reason as for the other kids as implied by Henry. She wants to help
@@IDsFantasy yeah that would make a lot of sense since it is in her nature to help the unfortunate.
Or it could be that Charlotte and the crying child probably had a good relationship with each other when they were alive.
Thx you I was wondering that
How the crying child is in golden Freddy
No problem!
He's here, he's there, he's everywhere.
Who you gonna call?
Psychic Freind Fred Bear.
XD
But we do know that William was spying on him through the plush thanks to the secret room in Sister Location so it wouldn't be a surprise to be him. It's been a while so my current questions are; wasn't this the first death setting things into play, and was the puppet even around at this time?
Imagine being killed by a yellow bear, traumatized for the rest of your death, and you then find out you've been put into that same bear.
Yep
My guess was that the other speaker was William Afton planning on literally putting him back together to maybe form Gregory in sb (btw I got this theory from matpat)
I remember MatPat suggesting that, but my issue at that point is why would the text color change since William seems to be the one speaking throughout the rest of the game, and how would he get to Golden Freddy without outside help because his body was in the hospital based on other hints in FNAF 4?
I like MatPat's theory better, that it's William Afton, the Crying Child's father. Because it is thought that this changed Willy from murdering kids for fun to murdering kids to experiment with remnant. You can see this is Sister Location, where in the blueprints you can see containers for children
I personally don't see why William would call himself his son's friend
I watch this videos so much and realized I haven’t even subbed! You deserve one, great job! ❤
Thank you!!!
I love the way you think!
Thank you :D
You Magnificent Maestro, You!
XD thanks
I think I may have solved the answer to what’s the point of the FNAF Survival Logbook?… if anyone else is asking?
Red Ink/penmanship - Mike/Michael
Faded Text - Charlie/Charlotte/future Marionette
secretly Hided Text Responses - Cassidy Afton/C.C. AKA “Crying Child”/Spirit of Golden Freddy/Fredbear
The Conversation happening in the Logbook isn’t between C.C. and Cassidy? ITS BETWEEN CHARLOTTE {pre-Marionette} AND THE CRYING CHILD {aka CASSIDY AFTON}!?!
I’ve always believed it to be William front a literal perspective, as it makes sense considering his association with his son and his eventual scheme later on.
My question is why he would call himself CC's friend and who the dark yellow would be
It’s because William Acton put cameras and microphones in the plush (and around the house too) to keep an eye on Micheal ‘babysitting’ Crying Child, since William wasn’t there at the hospital (the plush was though) he communicated his last words to his son…😊
Yeetus
Ok lol
What is just as likely as this is that Scott just wanted to troll people
I don't think so, especially with this scene being so important. That would be funny though
Nice. This was one of the early theories I really liked b4 mad scientist William became a thing.
when it says "I will put you back together." it reminds me of one of nightmare fredbears voice lines "i will tear you apart and put you back together all over again" fredbear did bite him on the head and thats somewhat close to "take you apart" so fredbear might put him back together.
I’m trying to understand more of the FNAF lore and your making it really easy to learn and understand thank you and I love your content
Thank you! I'm glad my content helps
Because of the colour change, this means that it can’t be William talking to the crying child when the entity says I’ll put you back together because the previous text psychic friend fredbear said is, from what I think everybody agrees upon, is that it’s William talking throughout the mini games before crying child’s death
Exactly
I like that during the game, when the plush speak it's William speaking through it. So at the end, the shade being slightly different is that someone else with a voice similar to williams is speaking through the plush, maybe Michael, to make sure his words reach his brother
The thing is Mike speaks in grey
@@IDsFantasy It's a theory that after the text in gray, he'd pick up to speak through the plush to make sure his brother hears him. But hey, just a theory
I believe the fredbear plush is William speaking through a walkers talkie in the plush and the animatronics fading is the child’s life fading as the last thing he hears his father say through the plush
“I will put you back together “
Meh, no real effort was ever shown from William to do this and in the books he is a terrible father.
@@MimDe yeahbut that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love his kids.he’s just a bad person at heart but still loves em(kinda)
@@koolbrayden21 He literally tries to kill Michael in FNAF 6, knowing it was him. Not to mention that he sent him to SL to a place full of robots created to kill.
@@MimDehe blamed micheal for the death of the crying child and resented him.plus he’s a phycopath so murder isn’t big to him
The fact that the SHADE of the text is what implies a different speaker is what scares me while im trying to learn the lore, why cant it be simple. My brain hurts 😭
Also i think the scariest thing about the FNaF lore is that it all lines up, its so confusing but it lines up and makes sense (sometimes) which means scott had to have already known the story when he made the games, HOW DOES ONE COME UP WITH THIS AND HIDE IT JUST ENOUGH FOR IT TO BARELY BE FOUND!?
who promises to bring cc back together is william afton
Also some theories say that he was remade into Gregory since people think he’s an animatronic and Freddy said broken instead of hurt and vision blurs by vanny also Michael was made into the new Freddy which doesn’t make sense since he wanted to die with the others in the fire
My guess is William sticking around kept everyone else around as well
Well this is a good theory, but if we look at it like this
William wanted to keep the crying child away from the animatronics at fredbears (most likely because of Elizabeth's death) so what does he do? He uses illusion disks to make crying child think that hes seeing nightmarish animatronics. And this theory is supported by williams room in sister location that has cameras of the crying childs room, most likely him watching over his son to make sure the illusion disks are working as planned to "protect his son", but whats on the desk? A fredbear plush. I specificly think that crying child has a fredbear plush because williams talking through it. He wants to scare his son to protect him but hes also his father so he comforts him as the nights go by in fnaf 4. The qoute "i will put you back together" is probably William talking to his son through the plush.
She when she puts misinformation:
Golden Freddy is not possessed by Crying child,only the 5th children
I genuinely believe that Golden Freddy is possessed by both so
Matpat thinks that William afton put a camera in it, since he was to busy with his work to actually be there, so he just watches his kids. And he was speaking through the plush
Yep. I think that's what's going on with the dark yellow text, not the light yellow
"I will put you back together"
-william afton
Why would he call himself his son's friend? I think he's more likely the dark yellow text
I can imagine how Cassidy and Evan react when they learn they have to share an animatronic vessel
Yeah XD
@@IDsFantasy XD
Definitely an interesting theory, I’m still personally of the belief it is William speaking to the crying child here as it just makes thematical sense here. William is putting his son back together just like he has seen with his daughter.
I believe that the speaker is the puppet as you said, mainly due to headcanon that Charlie and CC are friends 😅
Nice XD
Not a bad thought, but Fnaf 4 is the earliest timeline we have, and William (at least I think), hasn't killed Charlie yet.
It's hard to say, but I think it's best we wait for Matpat to finish his final "Official Fnaf timeline." Can't wait to see it, and hopefully it'll make sense.
William has almost definitely killed Charlie by that point. Henry says the wound from the tragedies was first inflicted on him, and in the books, Charlie was killed in late 82 and declared dead in 83. CC had to see something to get him scared, and Midnight Motorist heavily implies he snuck out the night of Charlie's death
But yeah, it'll be interesting to see what MatPat comes up with
Let alone in Midnight motorist, when orange guy is outside the house, and says his final line before the mini game ends, we see 2 footprints with 3 toes on each one.
It's interesting, because it makes you wonder, who was it that made them? People think the JR's area is the Fnaf 2 area, let alone that green guy said, "Come on, you know you can't be here. Don't make this more difficult than it has to be."
Matpat does make a good point that Jr's could be Fnaf 2. Also, that mound of dirt that you find could be a possible burial for someone, but who? My guess is that it's Mrs. Afton? IDK
ngl this reminds me of the whole "two purple guys" situation caused by the shade changing ever so slightly--
its a nice theory. and i could definitely see it.
but maybe we shouldn't be using the slight color changes as evidence anymore--
Thanks! And I totally understand. My thing is the text color is generally consistent throughout the cutscenes except for here and it seems weird to me that William would call himself his son's friend
@@IDsFantasy that's a fair point.
I think Cassie from the fnaf sb RUINS is Cassidy and that was how she died. I know "but Cassidy died before that!" how do we know? Maybe in fnaf 1 your working at the old pizzeria while the Pizza plex is being built, and plus the other fnaf games could be you switching jobs a lot because your broke. So theres my theory,
