In the Burntrap ending of Five Nights at Freddy’s Security Breach, Glamrock Freddy’s dialogue in the Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Simulator location and that fact that William Afton survived the fire set by Henry to become Glitchtrap and Burntrap has lead many to believe that Freddy is possessed by Michael Afton or one of the other characters from FNAF 6.

But is it actually possible for Glamrock Freddy to be possessed by a restless spirit? And if he is, what evidence is there that he’s possessed by Michael and not one of the other spirits? Henry and Charlie Emily (aka the Puppet/Marionette), as well as Molten Freddy and Elizabeth Afton (aka Circus Baby/Scrap Baby) also were supposed to move on after the FFPS fire, but who’s to say they actually did?

Join me in this video as I explore another corner of the FNAF lore using evidence from the FNAF Games, the Silver Eyes novel trilogy, and Fazbear Frights to discover whether or not there is actually a FNAF Game Theory I’m not going to nitpick to no end XD

    Any evidence I missed? Feel free to let me know! Otherwise, feel free to leave a comment and I hope you have a nice day :D
  • "Am I Monty with a different shell?" This whole bit could be a parallel to how Michael himself acted as a shell for Ennard. Maybe Michael had a similar sort of crisis after repossessing his body. He wasn't himself while Ennard was in control, but could he still be considered the same person now that so many parts of his body are missing? Can he still consider this his body when anyone else would be permanently separated from theirs in that situation?
  • @Supertails224
    Ok I was pretty hellbent on it being Henry, but your point about his whole driving purpose being to avenge his daughter kinda puts that down. The idea of it being Michael is my new head cannon, all the stuff about the security offices and the endo existential crisis really convinces me it’s Michael. Plus since dad’s still around there’s NO WAY Michael’s spirit could rest because that was HIS driving purpose.

    I love the idea of Glamrock Freddy being possessed by Michael. With Gregory being an analogue for the Crying Child (there's no way Scott designed Gregory resembling C.C. without that being the case/significant), that means Michael now has a second chance at atonement/redemption. Gregory may not be his brother but he'll protect him as if he were. I feel it also adds thematic weight to Michael's character and story arc, especially in the Redemption Ending where you free Vanessa (who seems to be an analogue for Elizabeth). He's able to free his "sister" from William's control: something hinted at in FFPS with Henry's speech (he doesn't condemn Elizabeth for her actions but he surely damns William's), Scrap Baby's desire to make her father proud by following in his footsteps (the desire to make a parent proud being a significant component in their abuse of their child and it connects to the novel trilogies version of Circus Baby/Elizabeth as well - she obsessively wants William's attention despite being neglectful/abusive to Elizabeth even when she was alive), and Vanessa's therapy tape where she's noted to have an abusive father, "Bill", who she still has psychological hang ups about to this day. In his quest to protect Gregory and maybe save Vanessa, he's reduced to a talking head but even that is fitting for him. Because he's now in the situation/predicament his brother was put in because of his cruel actions: bound to a Freddy animatronic with him being only a head mirroring Michael causing C.C. damage to his with his cruel prank. It's karmic really. Despite that, he's able to live happily now because of his redemption: he's able to live freely and happily with his new family. Gregory and Vanessa may not be C.C. and Elizabeth (I personally prefer if they were not to drive in the theme of "found family" even though I wish Michael could be shown truly making amends to his siblings, especially C.C. of whom I feel we haven't seen enough) but their his new family now and he deserves this happiness after working so hard. Sorry for the novel, this came to me recently and I wanted to get this out. I also have a few pieces of evidence as to why Michael could be possessing Glamrock Freddy but maybe that's for another time.
  • @Gr4nd_Mast3r
    Loved the editing looking like a greenscreen behind your character. Looked like you're about to share the weather lol.
  • @bluegold1026
    You make a compelling case of Freddy being possessed despite my immediate skepticism of the idea. I thought everyone we knew passed on after Henry’s infamous but legendary speech at the end of FNAF 6. The exception being William Afton, whose physical form has long since gone but his spirit is still alive and wants revenge. For some reason I’m reminded of MatPat’s latest SB vid on the Blob. The only one of his SB theory vids I agreed with.
  • @hebbycakes
    I love theories that Mike is Glamrock Freddy, not actually because of the Afton stuff but rather because it would be absolutely perfect that the first character you play as (in FNAF1) is the one that wants to protect you (in SB) is just... muah. I love it so much.
  • I really love the idea of Michael possessing glam rock Freddy, it's such a nice character arch for him, finally able to protect Crying child/Gregory in a way he never could before! I hope this gets confirmed in the new DLC!
  • I like the idea of both Henry and Michael being the ones to possess him. Henry because his sacrifice wasn't in vain and Michael because it would be a really nice story for his character. Im inclined to believe the Michael one more because of the other Afton kids parallels we have in security breach (Vanessa-Elizabeth; Gregory-crying child) so yeah why wouldn't there be the third and final one there too? Good theory, I'm glad you brought up evidence of glamrock Freddy being possessed at all, while I believed he was there are a lot of people who didn't so it's nice to see some evidence.
  • When you mention how Freddy missing Bonnie could be in reference to how Henry misses the friendship he had with William, until he turned out to be a monster, isn't far fetched. But I think that Michael is in Freddy. And I don't mean by being possessed, he could be in Freddys code. One thing that I'm wondering, is why does Aftons current head look nothing like his head did in Fnaf 6? We know that in order for certain things to be possessed, they need to have physical contact with a human being. Just like how the Ella doll became sentient when Henry held the doll while crying over the loss of his daughter Charlie. So I think there were organic remains of Henry or Michael in the Pizza Place location that Vanny used to tangle up in Aftons new body. Let alone the game puts emphasis on his left hand, which he never had in Fnaf 6.   The only thing you missed was the secret message in the secret Fnaf SL room that's most likely referencing Michael Afton. Other than that, I think it's best until the DLC or future Fnaf games come out so we can see what other mysteries can be revealed. What do you think ID's Fantasy? 🤔😀
  • @tothearkexe
    I love the idea of Michael possessing Glamrock Freddy, it would also make total sense bc Michael's goal is to end the pain and suffering William causes and since the fire in pizzeria simulator didn't do its job, his soul is still restless because his father is still there, now recruiting people to bring children to him/kill them for him. So Michael remaining a restless spirit would make so much sense
  • One minor possibility that I saw was that Micheal pulled a Glitchtrap and programmed Glamrock Freddy with some deep rooted need to protect children. That, or Henry programmed him that way. Like perhaps Lefty’s chip was used to make Glamrock Freddy and Henry had implanted some kind of protocol in Lefty to protect children as well. We know the old animatronic chips were used to make the Glamrocks, so perhaps some special code made by Henry or Micheal slipped into Freddy’s programming. The fact that Freddy has the slightest ability to fight back against the virus and has awareness of how to keep children safe unlike the other Glamrocks implies he has different programming than the other bots, like some kind of counter towards the Afton virus. If he was possessed, he still wouldn’t be able to fight back unless he had some kind of program to counter the virus. But he does! In the opening cutscene, I’m convinced that he saw Gregory and processed him as a child who was a potential threat/target (because he had no guest profile) and the Afton program kicked in to try and make him kill Gregory (recall that Baby had the programming to count children and target those who were alone), BUT something made Freddy malfunction instead. I think that the thing that made him malfunction was the counter program counteracting the Afton Virus and shutting down Freddy instead. We also know that possessed animatronics are USUALLY more aggressive than when they were alive, and act more like animals (with exceptions including the Puppet). The fact that Glamrock Freddy is fully conscious and not aggressive towards people like Vanessa implies he’s not fuelled by agony or remnant. Freddy also mentions that he “didn’t want to” dig the tunnel towards the underground pizzeria, but he didn’t have a choice. If he wasn’t possessed yet, why did he still experience reluctance to go towards the pizzeria? Perhaps because he knew what was down there and his programming telling him not to free Afton, although that could easily be replaced with Freddy being possessed and the person possessing him not wanting to free Afton as well. Some other evidence could include the VERY CLEAR distress towards Gregory being in his chest cavity, saying it’s not safe despite no past accidents being mentioned, implying nobody had gotten hurt by his chest cavity by that point. Why would he show this much distress over something that seemingly hasn’t been shown to hurt someone until that point. If someone had been hurt in the past, I doubt Freddy would have let Gregory ride around his chest cavity. It felt more like a calculated decision made by Freddy, deciding that letting Gregory ride around his chest would be safer despite the possible risk. Again, this could just be chalked up to him being possessed. I think that Glamrock Freddy being different because he has a unique programming made by Henry or Micheal (or even having the possible downloaded consciousness of either Micheal, Henry or Charlie), would make the story pretty interesting! Burntrap has the body of William Afton but is implied to have the downloaded consciousness of Glitchtrap, not the original soul of William Afton. So it could be like William Afton legacy vs Henry/Michaels legacy. All of them dead but what they left behind living on for them. William left behind the Afton Virus, a virus made to try and murder kids and possess people/animatronics, while Henry/Micheal left behind a counter to that virus, a program to help fight the Afton Virus as well as program animatronics to protect children. Heck! If that theory’s true, it might explain the Princess Quest minigames! Perhaps completing those minigames is the counter program defeating the Afton Virus as the princess! Think about it, Vanessa was locked in a digital prison by Glitchtrap in VR Help Wanted, so who is the person saving Vanessa during the Princess Quest Game? The princess couldn’t really be Vanessa because she’s trapped in the room, and besides it wouldn’t make much sense for Vanessa to be freed after we beat the game unless SOMETHING in that game had the ability to counter the Afton Virus, aka exactly what I’ve been talking about! So perhaps the Princess in the game WAS the counter program, being the only one with the ability to slay glitch creatures and being the thing that frees Vanessa from the locked door at the end of the game. I hope this makes sense but I think I might be on to something. I think I’m gunna write this down. So yeah TL;DR: I think that the reason Glamrock Freddy is different from the other animatronics is because he has a unique program that was made to counter the Afton Virus. Likely it came from the old circuit boards that were scanned to make the Glamrocks and was made by either Micheal or Henry to defeat the Afton Virus. That’s why I think Freddy is so different.
  • @eNCy.
    7:41 Like you said, Freddys ignorance can't be because of charlie, a child, possessing them. Because Charlie was living inside the puppet for over 30 years. She's probably learned a lot in those years. We know this because FNAF 3 takes place at least 30 years after the first game.
  • I honeslty think Henry still being around after Charlotte dies would make sense. While I'm sure letting her rest made him happy, the fact that her life was robbed from her, and that he would never get so see the kid he loved grow up make it hard for him to be truly at peice, which, if he is Freddy, would make the relationship between Freddy and Gregory even sweeter. He isn't replacing Charlotte, he is just finding a new sense of happiness.
  • @HidanKitten32
    One of the biggest things that did it for me to convince me Freddy was possesses was he was the only Robot, aside from Sundrop (though we might not count him due to Moon himself) not to fall under immediate control and hunt Gregory. Instead he wants to protect him. Either that was an outside source, maybe Venessa hacking him while she had a moment of control over herself or posessed robots are harder to control. And Michael specifically would be an adult soul, unlike all the children souls that would have been in previous games. Maybe he had more control. The other thing, one a friend pointed out, was his "second wind" and the one that really caught my attention was the dialogue while they were going deep under the old pizza place. Especially the "I am not ME" part. I don't know if that was in reality "actually" for golden Freddy or a William Afton thing but if it was cannonly referring to Afton, Freddy saying an altered version of that is a pretty big thing in my book :3 I will like to say i never thought of Henry or Charlie as a possibility and... I kind of like it. They do have their own motives into protecting children. But Michael make more sense to me. Especially with the theory that Greogry looks like Michael's little brother and that's why he feels so protective. As for the whole Venessa thing... I'll have to watch that video of yours but if it's "she's possessed by Elizabeth" I think that's impossible because from the time of Pizza Simulator and this game only 10 so years pass. Plus with Charile herself, she was selfaware in the original game, if Custom Night says anything about it. I like the idea that she and Henry reunited in the afterlife. Give them a happy ending
  • I’ve gotta say even though it’s unlikely I’m really interested at how you mentioned the possibility of Charlie being Freddy!
  • The reason why I instantly thought of Michael Afton is when I saw Glamrock Freddy holding his "stomach" like that. Also he mentioned "she" brought him there when he "cleared" the path it also made me thought of that scooper incident and he even mentioned "I am not me." He even feel like it when he was scooped and even he survived it.
  • @zacg8975
    I just had a thought about Glamrock Freddy being possessed by the spirit of Michael Afton Since it really is a possibility that Mike's spirit is also like a restless spirit but also a spirit that has unfinished business
  • I have no real basis for suspecting this, but is it possible Henry was in Bonnie? It would explain the "I miss him" line, and since I kinda like the Charlie-bot theories, I think Charlie is still around, which also means Henry probably is or was still around. Bonnie is the only character that comes to mind to me that could possibly fit.
  • @fancyfree535
    The by-far funniest idea is that Freddy is possessed by Charlie, Michael, and Henry simultaneously, so Henry is just parenting his daughter and his former-partner’s son while they’re all trapped in a robot together, trying to fight it’s natural programming where they can
