He probably died a while after as well, though we don't know. He could have been in hospital for days, weeks or even months. Given that Afton knows he can put him back together CC's actual death should logically be some time after Afton saw the puppet moving, thus knowing he can put him back together to begin with. His coma might have even been the ultimate last straw for William to go killing intentionally.

@@gaminganimators7000 There's a flatline at the end of the Night 6 ending, that's enough for me.

My belief is that the retcon was that Spring Bonnie, as shown in FNaF 1's drawings, was originally blue, but it was retconned that he appears blue as he's in the shadows, while he's actually yellow, in FNaF 2. Why make him yellow? To differentiate him from Classic Bonnie, and to tie him to Fredbear. He also stands out more as a result. To pay homage to this, every time Spring Bonnie appears in the shadows in the Graphic Novels, he's blue. This would go heavily unnoticed, as many FNaF fans don't even believe the FNaF drawings contain any possible lore, so they're always overlooked. This retcon however, confused the community during FNaF 2's release, as we're told that a "yellow" suit was used, however, as Spring Bonnie was blue in FNaF 1, the only characters we had to go off of were Chica and Golden Freddy, only for FNaF 3 to show us that it was Spring Bonnie all along, Scott just changed his colour. I'm glad that his drawings are yellow in the Novel Trilogy and the movie.

this could be it. in fnaf 2 phone guy heavily implies that the owners of fredbear’s are pretty heavily removed from the current fazbear entertainment, the way he says it also implies pg barely even knows anything about fredbear’s. but in fnaf 3 we clearly hear him talk about the springlock animatronics that existed at fredbear’s, and we know now henry and william continued being involved with fazbear entertainment after fredbear’s closed, hell its also shown that fredbear’s and freddy’s coexisted at one point too. so i think the retcon is most likely phone guy’s relation and knowledge of fredbear’s, along with henry and william being the owners

I remember the stretch I would make before FNAF 6 to justify my own belief that CC was the Puppet was "oh well yeah he was bitten by fredbear but he didn't _die,_ no no no, he survived and was killed _later..."_ despite the flatline at the end of the game, and despite it being his dad that would kill him. I was funny. It was never canon, and it was never Scott's retcon. But I consider Puppet CC _my_ retcon, and I'm happy with that.

I think I'm convinced the retcon was that the Puppet/Proto-Charlie was CC/Proto-Michael's younger sister like JoeDoughBoi said. It fits the 'no one noticed' criteria while also being a clear retcon of character relations that affects the story massively, and not just a minor change Scott would just wave off as not a 'real retcon' in his mind. It also explains why Fredbear Plush seemed to originally be the Puppet in FnaF 4/FnaF world but then in the game where the retcon happens (Elizabeth becoming the younger sister) that is changed so Fredbear Plush was ole' Willy

6:30 I agree that the Fredbear Plush is possessed by RWQFSFASXC. With RWQFSFASXC also controlling Fredbear and Spring Bonnie, as shown by RWQFSFASXC taking the place of their literal shadows (which is what signifies RWQFSFASXC taking over someone in Fazbear Frights). We also know this as the Fredbear Plush speaker speakes to us in the restaurant, where there is no Fredbear Plushie, only the animatronics themselves. This also means, while controlling Fredbear, RWQFSFASXC intentionally caused the '83 bite, so, it was never an accident. As for what RWQFSFASXC is, the Dark Remnant of the simultaneous springlock failure victim (Purple Guy) As for their motivations, they're clearly generating tons of agony and fear from the Crying Child, and using it to feed off of. And once he's sucked dry, he's no longer of use, and is disposed of, same with the MCI before him. And it can't be William speaking through a walkie talkie, as William is currently busy putting a Bonnie suit on an employee during when the Fredbear Plush speaker is currently talking to Crying Child. As for what Plus Fredbear has in his hands, it looks more like a remote control for the Nightmare animatronics, which would make sense, as the plush is positioned next to the cameras in the FNaF 4 bedroom location.

I don't really see the Crying Child being the FNaF 2 Puppet working out, The FNaF 4 Crying Child and the Take Cake kid are shown to die in different ways in FNaF 4, the game Crying Child is formally introduced in- however, FNaF 4 is also where the Crying Child is first connected to, in FNaF 3's Mangle's Quest, the specifically monochrome puppet-like character with no leg stripes, a removable mask, black tears, and a wide chest that can fit a person, like a springlock animatronic, unlike the Marionette shown in FNaF 2. This is why I believe the Crying Child goes on to be Nightmarionne instead, aka, the Shadow (Puppet(/Freddy, BB, Tree, Princess, etc...)). And Charlotte being revealed to be the Marionette later on wouldn't affect this plot point at all, so it wouldn't be "retconned out"... This would mean the Crying Child is still currently Nightmarionne, which is interesting due to his presence in the Mega Pizzaplex, including how he has plushies of himself set up around the building for surveillance, learning from the tricks used on himself by other as a child. There's also Nightmarionne's line referring to themselves as the reflection of Charlotte, which is interesting, both because the Bite of '83 is a mirrored Happiest Day, with Crying Child being a direct reflection of Charlotte, and in the novel trilogy, Charlie refers to her twin as a mirror... 👀 Y'know, FNaF's devorce and custody case is really confusing at times, you can never be sure which child originally came from what parent- Anyway, I really hope Help Wanted 2 reveals the true identity of the springlock animatronic in the CBEaR bunker... going by what Room For One More tells us, it's the real body of Nightmarionne, with the large chest cavity and all, as their FNaF World model and FNaF 3 Mangle's Quest sprite shows us... but until it releases, it'll be my wishful thinking. Thanks for reading :D Edit: And as for what's in the Box, it's as Scott said, it's the pieces of the Crying Child put back together. He was promised by Charlotte that she'd put him back together. But, tired of waiting, he put himself back together, as Nightmarionne. Then he escapes, specifically in FNaF World.

I've recently though that whatever is in the box is/was the full story up to FNAF 4 fully laid out to be presented for us. Like, a puzzle whose pieces are put together. Or an objective timeline. "But would the community accept it that way?" Considering that the fanbase got most of the fun out of solving the story for theirselves even with its cryptic hints and vague storytelling (Scott even said the fanbase figured out the story of the first 3 games and was disappointed the story of 4 wasn't), I can see why Scott is/was hesitant to present the full story this way.

Okay, Psychic Friend Fredbear theory - He was just a walkie-talkie plush IRL, but the "memories" we see are dreams / memories mixed with dreams. There was a physical object, which is why it's in SL; to confirm it wasn't imagined. But what it said... That's the mystery part; was the bite victim just remembering what the voice said via the walkie-talkie, or, as he remember-dreams is the plush being used by an invader, a "dream walker" to communicate to him. This idea comes from the notion of if someone is dead, or trapped in a dream, what they experience can only be a re-mix of what they saw in life / what they saw when they were awake. This plush was his friend, whom he trusted and he knew it could talk... So if a voice used it as an avatar to speak through to contact him then perhaps he would accept it and not be afraid of it (when otherwise the bite victim is afraid of many things within the world he remembers). Where I get this comes from stories and books were someone is either a ghost "trapped" in their looping memories of life, or a person in a coma dreaming and then some third party, some magical character projects into their world. In many cases, it's shown that the spirit or person freaks out at seeing something new or unfamiliar, but if this person shows up as something/someone already in the dreamscape then they are just accepted as part of it and not being some outside threat. In the end I feel like Psychic Friend Fredbear showing up in SL is just suppose to confirm that whatever FNAF4 is represents events that happened; perhaps in the mind of a child they are remembered differently; but they definitely happened. Whoever put the walkie talkie in the bear went on to work at the SL bunker, this person had a "private room" with cameras to the house the child saw and the maps confirm that nothing the child remembers was completely made up. But beyond that I think people want to overthink it; Scott's goal was probably to get across two points; 1) FNAF4's events, people and places are REAL people, events and places. There's a foxybro out there, there are a group of bully-children, there is a purple man / entity out there and there use to be a house near Fredbears where two boys and a parent that worked with the Fazbear company lived.

@@aleanddragonITA I don't think Crying Child ever knew about the SL bunker. We do see one reference to SL in FNAF4; that being in the sister's room there is something on the floor that looks like Mangle / Funtime Foxy. That connects the two time periods together; suggesting that the Funtimes either existed while CC was still alive, or that the parent that works at Fazbear's was actively working on the prototypes to the funtimes at home. But this is the interesting part of it; like how Scott's two websites use to "talk" to each other, FNAF4 and SL "talk" to each other; The evidence in the Private Room in SL directly reference FNAF4's gameplay AND cutscenes, while FNAF4's inclusion of a funtime prototype / parts of a funtime directly foreshadow SL. I feel like this is meant to tell us to look at the two games as a pair and not as unrelated sections. In terms of the idea of a Sleep Walker in FNAF4's cutscenes, I would simply suggest The Puppet. It is the most supernatural/haunted entity in the series that is pro-active. The Puppet moves on it's own, acts on it's own and based on UCN's voice lines it is aware/knows what it is. The Puppet is able to direct other spirits/ghosts and "place" them into objects. The animatronics are inorganic objects, robots, and the puppet "puts" the spirits into them. Without the Puppet's direction, it is not clear if they would have embodied the Mascots at all or just floated around the area aimlessly. So I believe the Puppet is the simplest, most direct answer to the question. In addition, I think it's important to keep in mind that this whole over-arching story of FNAF plays with two ideas at the same time; that supernatural occurrences exist, but also technology exists. FNAF is a story about people in the modern "real world" discovering the supernatural. William Afton is deranged person willing to kill who is applying technology to the spiritual. The reason why it's important to keep this in mind is that any given character or part of the story can be about these two things coming together, or existing apart. The Puppet is the supernatural part existing on it's own; Charlie dies and her spirit finds it's why into the Puppet without guidance. Meanwhile the Funtimes are clearly a combination; Afton builds robots to then inject ghost goo into and fuse the two elements together. And then, throughout the series, there is evidence that many of the mascots may have never been haunted by anything; to this day there is a debate over if the Toy series was ever haunted. Part of the original mystery of the first game that you (the player character) and phone guy are dancing around are wither the animatronics are malfunctioning or are haunted. It's very clear from Phone Guy that he suspects something from the start but either does not want to believe it or does not want to scare off the new nightguard. On the last Phone call it's clear that Phone Guy is distressed, but also doesn't seem overwhelmed with surprise (again, suggesting he suspected something).

@@aleanddragonITA (replying to your retcon comment, not sure how comments sync up) I have a really weird theory about that, actually; CC flatlines at the hospital, but that doesn't mean he is declared dead and formally buried. It is entirely possible that that sound is him being unplugged from the machine; when you remove that stuff, it makes a flatline noise because the machine is suddenly receiving no feedback. It is entirely possible that if Afton is both the MCI killer and CC's father that he might be deranged enough to remove his son from the medical setting to "put him back together". Without getting too grim, in the US you can take people home to die instead of waiting for it to happen in the hospital. If someone isn't going to get better, if they are failing and there is nothing more to do, you can get permission to take them home. This leads me to point out Curse of Dreadbear and specifically the mini-game about Dreadbear. It's focused around the idea of a very fleshy-looking brain being synced-up to Dreadbear before closing the lid and sending the monster on it's way. It's played for laughs, but it could also be representative of some actual event. The entire DLC is similar to a "fear fest" Halloween event that's hinted at back in FNAF6 via posters in an alleyway. Dreadbear's minigame might not be literal, but why does Dreadbear quiver fearfully and experience pain while you are working on him? What other robots in the series, that we know are haunted, also experience pain? It makes me wonder if CC ended up haunting Golden Freddy not because they physically touched each other from the bite, but because Fredbear was taken out of service and then "recycled" for a Dreadbear experiment. It could explain why Golden Freddy is shown broken in all games except in the cutscenes of FNAF4; why even in UCN it appears too busted to move more then some rough jerks.

⁠Do you think William got in the Springtrap suit when the ghost appeared in FNAF 3 because the kids spirits had been connected to the suits? That way even if the ghosts killed him he would “always come back

Nothing better than watching Sire Squawks at work 👌

Bite victims fate has always confused me, and this video is great. A few questions if you will: What is your actual working theory on his fate? You mentioned in another video some people headcanon him to become shadow freddy, brainwashed by William into another minion, which i find really satisfying because I personally think there are too many problems with him either co-haunting golden Freddy with Cassidy or haunting him instead of Cassidy. Plus, shadow Freddy was clearly important between 2 and 3, and just fell off without much explanation to our knowledge. 4 would be the perfect time to explain him, and the game is all about BV. What do you think?

I think that would count as a Scottcon. It's never explicitly said (as far as I'm aware) that Fredbear plush is supernatural. So I think Scott would count it more as a "I never explained that, so changing the direction for it and then explaining isn't a retcon".

@@SnailTheNail But it doesn't make sense for it to show up in the game with possessed eyes if it's a walkie talkie, so that could be a retcon. The initial minigame suggests that the plush is someone communicating with CC after his death, not a thing that was actually there at the time. The "we are still your friends" dialogue also makes more sense as initially written for one of the child spirits.

The retcon is the fnaf 4 animatronics being real, that's it, they aren't nightmares anymore. I remember back then that it was accepted they were just nightmares and not real, but a few people (like scott said) suggested they might be actual animatronics, real robots

Ok, I feel like this one is a bit hard to digest, it took me a while to think things through as you were laying them out. I somehow think Scott is lying about the number of retcons (that matter anyway) and I did believe that CC was meant to be the Puppet but this video did make me question this and, as of right now at least, make be think I'm wrong about that. HOWEVER I also think there is a misunderstanding here on your part. At least on the way you laid out things there seems like there's some nebulous ground on where the retcon takes place if this is the retcon, because the way you talk is like fnaf 4 happens and then scott decided there was a retcon needing to happen to make things make sense, but I think most people would think that it would have happened in the development of FNAF 4, meaning that in the story we get, it has already happened. Even if Scott is quick with his work, changing the story and the dialogue would be a lot faster than changing assets for the game, and we know for a fact because of site source codes that FNAF 4 was originally about the Bite of 87 rather than the Bite of 83. If we *know* that, Fnaf 4 becomes the bigger focus on where a retcon could have happened. It doesn't mean it *was*, but it means it's the place where we would most likely could have known and not noticed. And gender issues aside, color/design theory aside, if you plant the seed in the previous game that there's one singled out crying child that goes on to possess an animatronic whose main design point is a streak of tears, and that through their handiwork the brought back animatronics are able to enact vengeance, and then the very next game you introduce a single out crying child that is the main focus of the plot, like how are these things not at the very least meant to be interpreted as connected? Yes, the other kid spirits are shown crying, there are even other animatronics crying in FNAF 3 minigames, but it isn't as much of a farfetched conclusion anymore if you think the retcon is something in the story of fnaf 4. It's hard enough piecing what did happen let alone figuring out what was cut/reworked from happening, but Occam's razor is still that Scott pushed events back in the timeline once he realized some of them wouldn't make sense or be satisfying.

"one singled out crying child" This really needs to stop. They all cry, since even before the Puppet was even a thing(Creepy Fnaf 1-posters). If we say the kid in the puppet was singled out for a reason, then we need to look for unique traits, not a generic one all of them are shown to have. And such a trait does not exist as far as I can see, so they were probably singled out because they HAVE to be. Someone always has to be the first in a chain of anything.

@@lpfan4491 "singled out crying child" in the sense that it was a crying child separated from the others with a different focus. Of course people in their situation would cry, that's not what's abnormal. But in FNAF 2 it was impossible to know why that kid was the only one on the outside. It being left out and vulnerable was a key trait. FNAF 4 comes around and we have a crying kid with poor socialization skills that is vulnerable. And, in fact, if we take just games 1 - 4 at the time of their release, crying children was not *that* common. Fnaf 1 has the posters... with the same one face. Fnaf 2 has only puppet kid Fnaf 3 is interesting. There's no alive kid crying. There's ONE dead kid crying in BB's minigame. And ONE in Shadow Bonnie's (probably the same). The springlock ending has also ONE crying ghost (the other 4 have their backs turned). Fnaf 4 notoriously has the one Bite Victim. Regardless of whether or not it holds water after these past few years, that is not my argument that it is right or isn't. The point I'm trying to make is that it isn't outlandsih to get to that conclusion with what was presented. It's not completely crazy or out there is the point. In fact, that's why the Bite of 83 is such a memorable twist, because logic and narrative would dictate we were witnessing something we had the context for and not something brand new.

Because design details back when we had 4 games....I never believed in it and always thought it was stupid

bite victim was never puppet or 5th missing child I use to thought fifth missing was a lie in fnaf 4 because of golden freddy was hallucination in fnaf 1

I think the true retcon is Golden Freddy's role in the story as we barely knew anything about them so anything Scott had intended would go over our heads and it was before Micheal was put as the Security guard. So the retcon i think is Golden Freddy was who possessed them or what he has been leaded up to be whatever it may be, maybe William using the suit instead of Spring Bonnie

I do have a theory that could tie up who the crying child is meant to be, and it does have a lot to do with a previous theory on this channel where you mentioned that the only logical thing that could be outside michael's room is a "scarecrow" style endo that can possibly produce illusions via sound. Now hear me out, since it might sound a little absurd. But what if that "scarecrow" endo is yenndo? It's been pointed out by a few people how Lefty's shell design practically matches yenndo's shape perfectly, even down to the eye colors. Most people don't know how to fit lolbit and yenndo into the storyline since they are partially canon easter egg characters with little to no explanation as to what they represent, but this theory brings together all the easter eggs in sister location together, since Scott himelf pointed out that "there are no random easter eggs." This more than likely means all the easter eggs we see throughout the games have some sort of lore representation or greater significance beyond just being secret characters for the fun of it. I do believe every game post fnaf 3 has just been a retelling of the "original" story. Yenndo is a very confusing easter egg, since he only appears canonically in funtime auditorium, albeit very rarely. The same can be said about lolbit, who's mask does canonically appear in place of the ennard mask in the main control room on rare occasions as well. I think yenndo may be this scarecrow animatronic, who I also believe to possibly be a newer version of the psychic friend fredbear ai. A lot of people think PPFB is just william talking to the CC through a walkie talkie, but that still doesn't explain why he appears ALL OVER THE NEIGHBORHOOD as well as in place of a flower with nobody saying anything about it in the minigames. This seems to be a plushie, or an illusion disk that the CC carry's around, similarly to how the Tale's books show Edwin's son carrying around a plushie with an AI system inside of it, designed to be his friend by literally mimicking him entirely, since he probably thought that the perfect friend for his son should be just like him, since "how could you not get along with an ai that mimics your own behaviours?" he thought. So after the CC dies, PPFB stays around as an ai, but its already seen not just now CC acted as a kid, trying to tell him "were still your friends" even though he's terrified of them, but also how michael acted as well, how he would torment and bully the CC relentlessly, eventually killing him. If we assume the events of the first MCI to be in 1985, after FNAF 4's minigame sequence in 1983, then it could be assumed that William afton separated himself from the business out of grief for the CC's death, but it doesn't explain why there's a mangle toy in Elizabeth's bedroom to begin with. I partially believe in dream theory for the sole reason that all the children we see throughout the minigames represent the phantom animatronics, and mangle being a twisted version of how the CC sees his sister would make sense as to why she appears as a hallucination in fnaf 3, as well as bb and the puppet. One thing i still dont know (about the phatoms) is why bonnie's not there, and why it's hallucinations of withered freddy and foxy, but the fnaf 1 model of chica. The animatronics in security breach could explain this maybe? only because there are ties to chica's voice box getting fixed and bonnie getting replaced with a more violent version of himself basically. This is why I believe Elizabeth's death happened before the events of the fnaf 4 minigames, and that the CC is literally a rebuilt version of her, but as a boy. Now hold on a minute, I hear you say. "That makes absolutely no sense". Well, it would not only explain why mangle's gender (as well as the vengeful spirit, and funtime foxy too) are very ambiguous in the story. Scott has allowed these three characters to be gender fluid for a reason, that reason being that the CC is a test; I think, mind you this could just be extremely broad speculation, that william afton was so consumed with the grief of his daughter that he tried to "mimic" how the puppet victim's life giving abilities, by literally trying to create life through his knowledge of robotics. (puppet victim may not be henry's daughter, keep in mind the name "henry" is never said at all in the games so henry could very well just be a stand in for william.) This could mean that yenndo and funtime foxy are connected, maybe yenndo has the mimic ai program inside him and funtime foxy is just what he's using to "catch" you if that makes any sense. Yenndo/FF are the feminine voice we hear throughout SL, since they are the one getting you to do all sorts of ambiguous tasks for seemingly no reason, and I also believe that HandUnit is a more useful and refined version of the mimic ai since it clearly knows a lot about the technology Afton's reaserching with. Handy tries to mimic michael on night 2 with the "angsty teen" voice, which i dont think is just a joke, I think its meant to show that older teen michael (maybe 18 or 19? idrk) was the one in SL that we play as. There are wierd audio glithes that can be slowed down and reversed to say, "argumentative...standards...elevation...passive...heights" Almost like a secondary ai (Yenndo/FF, the reason i group them together is mainly cause I believe yenndo to be puppeteering him not just because of the eye color matching but also because it would explain the mimic/yenndo being springrap and the guy represented in the fnaf 6 alley poster and michael afton is foxy, the one hes puppeteering to do his dirty work, i.e kidnapping you and stuffing you into a springlock suit. I think lolbit is meant to represent what scott initially wanted to do with ennard, with a golden fox head (yenndo+FF design) as the one in control, sort of ironic given how ennard basically does that anyway,where he puppeteers michael, someone portrayed as foxy in the CC's minigames. Lolbit might not be a real animatronic, but her mask is meant to be symbolic in my opinion. I know there are a lot of plot holes here, but these are just some of the pieces put together in a new way that not a lot of people have talked much about.

I'm still convinced the retcon is super boring and it was missed because it's boring. The FNAF 1 newspaper that says "Suspect convicted." was changed to "Suspect arrested." in canon because the story falls apart if William was convicted. As of when the post was made, nobody noticed that it's weird that William isn't in prison despite being convicted for a thing that DEFINITELY comes with a life sentence without possibility of parole AT LEAST. We've noticed it now, but we hadn't at the time.

The trunk might contain a body. There's a belief in many religions that the soul can't rest until funeral rituals are performed which include a proper burial. And Scott describes himself as christian, so it's possible he would inject a bit of his own spiritual beliefs into the story. This would explain why the animatronics became possessed in the first place. There does seem to be clues scattered between the games and books about the importance of graves to symbolize a soul is at rest. So yeah, either its a body in the trunk or CC's belongings. Or because trunks typically hold mementos especially from childhood, the closed trunk is a metaphor for Mike finally forgiving himself. The plain big brother Mike, not Zombie Son Of A Mad Scientist Mike.

One theory behind the retcon I've always been surprised to never see brought up is that, according to the newspapers in FNAF 1, there were seemingly multiple incidents of Purple Guy luring children to the back room, TOTALING five victims - one paper specifically stating that he was captured after being seen luring two children who went missing and just that there were five overall victims. This contrasts with FNAF 2 and Silver Eyes, both of which present all five children as going missing in a single day.

No but since Henry appears in FNaF6 he isn't the retcon(and even if he was he would fall into what Squawks is calling a scottcon where its just more information on something that was previously vague/unexplained) The singular retcon is referring to somewhere between FNaF 1 and Sister Location

I found a few additional things PuppetVictim Believers claim is evidence for PuppetVictim: 1: the grandfather clock. In FNaF 4 (And I'm sure your already aware of this, given your stance on dream theory) there's a grandfather clock in both the Night sections and the minigames. The Puppets music box plays a song called "My Grandfather's Clock" which went on to be what named Grandfather clocks as Grandfather clocks. 2: the plushies: In FNaF 4 the crying Childs room is surrounded by plushies. where is the puppet placed in FNaF 2? the prize counter, with shelves of plushies. 3: the Baby: In FNaF 4, the bonnie bully(?) refers to the crying child as a "Baby" which some took as a reference to the puppet due to Markiplier nicknaming the puppet "the baby" in his FNaF 2 Playthrough. Scott even referenced the nickname in the nightmarionne teaser image, with it being labelled as "Don't wake the Baby". Now, I am not a PuppetVictim believer. I do not think it was Scotts original plan for the crying child, nor was it the retcon he was talking about in his post. I just thought I'd bring up a few pieces of supposed evidence and see your reaction to them 9assuming you see this comment which I doubt will happen but hey, who knows).

And like I said I the video, and Scott said in his post, the story can take on details and add plot beats from beyond the original plan, but those aren’t “changes” or retcons, just more being written into the story.

I think crying child is golden freddy

For one of your videos, I swear that you stated that the Puppet was an existing entity that was possessing the Fredbear Plush (I forgot the rest of the context that was set up for the idea). If that were true, could it be that the design scheme for the Crying Child is meant to allude to its communication with the Puppet, and not necessary allude to becoming the Puppet himself? Also, the Ultimate Dream Theory image reminds me of the iconic Lasombra antediluvian picture from VtM lol

First? Wrong! Sire is first.

I genuinely was in a conversation where someone strongly insisted it was true and it's like...what are people smoking? Heck, the image often cited for theories is the freedy plush strings-one. Freddy, not even the Fredbear plush that would have something to do with Fnaf 4. On a teaser image for Fnaf 6(game that while very slightly retconning the Fnaf 2 minigame solidifies the obvious truth of it having nothing to do with crying child). And the image was most likely meant to tease the plottwist that Lefty(who is a recolored Rockstar *Freddy*) captured the puppet. What gets me the most is when people say crying child resembles the Puppet due to the tears. When the generic visual of a crying kid also applied to all of the dead bodies and their spirits. Since Fnaf 1, which was BEFORE THE PUPPET WAS A THING. And this is even before tackling that if it was true then this video is entirely correct on how it couldn't be "the retcon" because there was nothing to notice. That was a character death and that was a character death. How would anyone logically connect the two as the same deathscene when the change was entirely on Scott's private list of stickynotes or sth at that point? This is just as "smart" as people saying the bite of 83 has to overwrite the one of 87 simply because "we cannot have multiple bites in the same timeline".

The retcon is 4 games one story, sister location was originally supposed to be a stand alone game

ME WATCHING YOUR VIDEO: AGREED😎😎

Yeah? No one has ever thought he is the puppet.

Matpat did. Hell he made a short saying this was the “one retcon”.

In my opinion puppet victim or golden Freddy victim is kind of a good way to end the series where you get the bite of 87 but there's still some lingering minor mystery that will never find out

I think the retcon is the crying child from 1,2, and maybe 3 went from being the puppet to being the bite victim

Well argued, but I'm just baffled that people think the Bite Victim is the one possessing the puppet.

I respect it, but I didn't really follow some of it and I sorta disagree with parts. You aren't wrong, you bring up some good points... But I feel like the blatant misdirection of the kid having so much in common with the Puppet counts for something. That the Puppet takes their place in HD means something. That said, I will die happy if 'scottcon' becomes an actual literary term.

I mean it's a tad misleading to say he's got a lot in common with the puppet when he's got just as much in common with Fredbear if that's the route you take. His favorite plush is Fredbear, his brother's friends take the form of the characters leaving him the odd one out like golden freddy, he dies to fredbear, the final boss of the game is Fredbear and recolor of fredbear, his fear is centered around fredbear, and Golden Freddy unlike the puppet had no unique backstory established thus far. Not saying he HAS to be fredbear, but there's just as much circumstantial stuff to link the two.

@@siresquawks No, I agree that he has a lot to do with Fredbear, too. That is why the character has always been frustrating to me because the tease of both makes neither as satisfying. Also, the 'fading away' scene you are referring to matches up with Puppet fading last in HD. I don't think the kid is Puppet, but there is something there. (And narratively I prefer it but whatever.) I do think he becomes either Golden Freddy or Shadow, but it's more complicated that way and sometimes I like the simpler things in life.

does anyone still believe in this theory? this was something people only theorized about for a brief moment during fnaf 4. it was very clearly deconfirmed in fnaf 6 too. so whats the point of this video

Matpat did.

the retcon is the bite, there is only a bite of 83, 87 is what got changed but due to us not knowing anything about the bite we didnt notice at the time. we were all too high on Scott saying matpats fnaf 2 theory was "mostly correct" that we didnt even consider anything in that theory wrong at the time

Obviously

The Retcon is fnaf 4 But in all seriousness it’s probably dream theory if that was the direction It was going in. The person that possesses the puppet gender because it was the save him minigame. Or whatever was inside the box originally I probably not because he talks about it.

Dream Theory can’t work nor this so-called “changed the gender of the ghost of the Puppet”, for different reasons because if Dream Theory was somehow the intention then it can’t work for counting as the “Retcon”, because it would had been talked about and would had been noticed (since Scott mentioned that it was a minor retcon that no one had noticed it) by many and this post by Scott was made before the release of Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Simulator (even then UCN called Puppet’s gender as him meaning that Puppet’s gender is male while the ghost is female). So, it could be anything from FNaF 1 to Sister Location that would had been a minor retcon like a example could be the animatronics from Freddy Fazbear’s Pizza’s age. Since Phone Guy says they’re twenty-years old, but both FNaF 4 and the Faz-Tokens in Help Wanted 1 showed they only had existed since the year of 1983. Meaning that Phone Guy was only just exaggerating their age.

I feel like the FNaF movie CAN be counter argued as the puppet is most likely possessed by the CC in the movie if you piece up all the evidence we have of the movie so far The cc in the movie disappearing never coming back Charlie in books disappearing never coming back The CC did not suffer the bite of 83 in the movie, and Abby is severely coded to be a mix of both Elizabeth and Charlie (Abby has the letters for Baby and is a nickname for Elizabeth and has the same eye and hair colour as Charlie) so it’s likely Charlie doesn’t exist in the movie continuity

You need to calm down with your hate for Matpat. The guy's a decent human being and great father yet you're antagonising him as if he was a terrorist sometimes. There was even a chance of you to meet up together with a bunch of other theorists. They listen to theories and if you had been there I'm sure you would have had a lot of fun.

Hell there are theories I agree with or at least think are fun. It’s more frustrating to me that people like you can’t see that.
