FNAF Animatronics Explained - SPRINGTRAP (Five Nights at Freddy's Facts)

A serial killer’s undead corpse trapped inside a robot suit is unironically one of the coolest ideas for a villain ever

William: Dies in a horrible and brutal and bloody way Souls: Woah. This is worthless

I can't believe I never realized the reason a child's voice is used to lure Springtrap in FNAF 3 was because he would kill children and when you use it he thinks there's another kid to kill.

William Afton took "this isnt even my final form" seriously

Springtrap: the original Scraptrap: the old Glitchtrap: the hacker Plushtrap: the marketable plushie

Knowing Williams story is basically knowing the base lore for fnaf

Love how we used to think that William was a grieving father after Evan's death, but no, he's just a horrible person

Imagine a live action horror movie of the whole fnaf story, Would be so sick!

Afton: gets in suit Springlocks: understandable, have a nice day

You literally learn the whole fnaf lore by knowing aftons history

William's young son didn't die instantly, he died in the hospital while in a coma afterwards. And when he talks to Golden Freddy at the end, Freddy speaking is his dad or older brother trying to talk to him after the doctors say he is going to die.

Quick correction:Henry made the toy animatronics without William since there is a defense mechanism against William in the animatronics. And Elizabeth died before the crying child hence why afton kept scaring him,to stop him from going to a restaurant with animatronics.

He protecc He attacc But most importantly... he always comes bacc

Just imagine wearing a spring lock suit and a kid trips and spills soda over you

8:50 “razor sharp teeth” as all of them have a flat non-sharp tip

"Lead by the antagonist of FNAF Security Breach - Vanny" Well after playing Security Breach, she doesnt feel like an antagonist at all

"Springtrap is by far the most sinister looking animatronics." Fanartists: Let's fix that with a controlled shock.

Afton has more lifes than a cat.

ngl, 7:20 is one of my fave parts in fnaf. It give such an indescribable feeling and it lurks in my mind a lot. The way he called him "Old friend" even after all he did (Which was probably a form of satire) just topped it off completely. Imagine if he had said "So don't keep the devil waiting, my enemy". It just doesn't work. The wording is perfect and the tone and calmness of his voice, knowing it's all about to be over is just so amazing.

From my take on this, William Afton was a loving father, he just had issues. After his youngest kid died, he was most likely hellbent on trying to resurrect him, due to his grieving. Once he discovered remnant and found out what it can do, he probably had the mindset that he could make himself live forever. I believe he went after kids instead of teenagers or adults simply because they would be the easiest and wouldn't be able to fight against him, thus making killing them easier. It's really sad when you truly, deeply think about it and how twisted he ended up becoming. This is just my take on what his mindset and motive was and how he unfortunately succeeded into getting what he wanted (in a way).
