Why did William kill the DCI? | FNaF theory

Ойындар

The Dead Children’s Incident a.k.a the DCI is probably the most mysterious murders William Afton has ever committed. There are multiple unanswered questions about these killings but I want to focus on just one: why did William kill these kids?

    Honestly, I think that the DCI kids being so… obvious is a big piece of evidence for the idea that Charlie stuffed the kids in the suits. If William suspects the animatronics are possessed, he’d want to see if it’s a replicatible phenomenon, we know he wants to figure this out because of his experimenting in the Sister Location bunker, I think the DCI being just trial and error combined with a lack of care for a pizzeria that isn’t his is the simplest explanation. And honestly, I don’t think the DCI kids possessed anyone at all, the bodies never got stuffed, and they were almost certainly found immediately judging from how the building goes on lockdown, and most of the toys’ weird behaviors can be explained through using the old animatronics’ parts/remnant and the facial recognition AI messing up. Or maybe Fritz Smith did something that messed them up, who knows

    Aight so I think William killed the dci because he wanted to see what Charlie did with the mci (since I think a part of Charlie going to the safe room and the animatronics getting dragged or disappearing was caught on camera) so he lures 5 or 6 kids to the safe room as a group, kills them, and when closing time he lays them all out, and waits and to make sure the puppet sees the kids he put one next to the puppets box, but when the puppet sees the kids she doesn’t stuff them, she learned her lesson (I think the candy cadett Keys story is about Charlie seeing the dead mci kids having the power to fully resurrect one and that will set her would set her free to, but wants to save all of them so she stuffs them and dooms the mci and her) so she enlist Gabriel for help to get William but they fail and he gets away.

    There was a theory that he was testing if charlie would give life again, but she doesn't trap more kids that time around, though that goes more along with puppetstuffed, which the books and movie point to that not likely being the case. It could have been to ruin fazbear/get Henry arrested. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯ And there's also whatever foxy gogogo was. Mci? 5 more kids?

    But a problem with the toys/withereds possession theory is that how come after the events of fnaf 2, the toys (if they were possessed) are able to be free but the withereds still remained and came back as the Fnaf 1 originals when both of them were scrapped and used? Couldn’t the Withereds had gone the same route as the toys if the toys were possessed in the first place?

    In my honest opinion, I think the DCI kids only exist just to give an explanation for why the toys attack you. The toys are 100% possessed. The bite of 87 can’t really happen if they’re not. There’s no debate about this however, once they serve their purpose Scott just erased them from the narrative and they were never acknowledge again. (like seriously whatever William brought up they only talk about how he killed 7 kids) What is sad at the very least they could’ve just been in happiest day

    It wouldn't make sense for Scott to add this new event without any purpose. Since he added 6 new animatronics to the roster of 5, this makes them 11, and the minigames revealed William had killed 11 children. Also, why would Toy Chica just take off her beak and why would Mangle climb up the ceiling if they weren't possessed, really? It's weird people nowadays are just accepting Phone Guy's explanation that they are just malfunctioning, it's the same as believing the FNaF 1 animatronics aren't possessed and just think you are an endoskeleton because Phone Guy said so

In my opinion, those kids are only there, because happiest day is meant to be the complete opposite of the bite of 83 In that mini game, there’s nobody in the seats nobody was able to get to the party in time so the opposite with logically have people be in the seats now.

    I think William killed the DCI because he probably has a personal vendetta against Fazbear Ent. after he was thrown out from the company and the reason why he didn't really do anything to hide the bodies is because he wanted to make them look bad. It might have also been something to experiment with remnant and all but who knows. Not a Stitchliner, but I like your interpretation of Andrew's death. You are the first one to give Andrew an actual onscreen death unlike the others who go like " Oh he was killed somewhere and he is TOYSNHK and very important". My only problem however is, if we are going under Stitchline meaning AndrewTOYSNHK, why is he so special than the other DCI victims who barely do anything? Anyways, good theory!

    Last comment, but mangle is definitely the oddest one out of all of them . They’re the only animatronic that moves in “save them” besides puppet Freddy, and technically golden Freddy. The Toys aren’t possessed yet because they don’t move and balloon boys not even there . In the code their sprite is called “ he was here” which implies their very aware “ also apparently in one of their files called “yellow” and golden Freddy’s in it which implies they influence them in someway . Also, in the next game 3 they seem to have a connection to the puppet because they’re the one who gets the cake for everyone to use to invite the kids to the happiest day. Also, there mini game has the shadow puppet. I hope the 2nd movie goes into this because it is very interesting a to my knowledge there hasn’t really been an explanation for this.

    Comments on this Reddit post by YeeterCZ mention it: "Is it ever explained how the hell Mangle climbs on things? Let alone manages to get into positions like this? I've always thought he just grabbed onto things, considering she swings down, but grab with what? Those three, big, stiff plastic fingers?" I'm still trying to find these emails the comments mention so maybe take this with a grain of salt.

    Good news. I found the emails on both the Five Nights at Freddy's wiki and Triple A Fazbear wikis. Here's an email from Tristan's side to Nora about the Mangle: "Nora, I've been looking over these reports on the mobility tests for the new model and I gotta say I'm a little disturbed by the lack of progress. The original was purportedly able to move along the ceiling, and from what I'm seeing here, we're having issues getting our rebuilds to even move on level ground properly. What kind of shop are you guys running down there? The marketing guys are lighting fires under me to promise we'll hit the launch date for this, and what I'm seeing is not filling me with confidence. Tristan" There are other emails reporting strange occurrences with the other animatronics and they are really interesting.

    most serial killers in the past have started a lot more careful and gotten slopier as they got more confident in not being able to be caught. I know lots of people want William to have some "legit" motive, but there is no motive that really justifies his actions. Even if, in his own twisted way, he has a reason beyond just enjoying killing or something, he still seems to be very motivated by that violence. Any remnant experiments or whatever is just the cherry on top. Your theory about it being to clear his name is really great, though. I think that makes the most sense beyond just "oh, william is a serial killer"

    This is not necessarily connected to this theory, but i believe the DCI and it's aftermath could be the perfect setup for Circus Baby's Pizza World Many people think the Freddy's mentioned in SL is Freddy's I because the tapes from FNaF 3 which are from Freddy's I mention a "sister location", but this could be any place, really. It could even be Fredbear's I think that after Freddy's II closed after the Bite of '87, William was wary of killing more victims. The police was after the dayshift guard, which was him (probably in a disguise like Dave Miller), the building got on lockdown, and even the animatronics tried to enter his office, as mentioned by Phone Guy. Maybe he made the Funtimes after the DCI because he didn't wanted to risk himself even more. The design of the Funtime Animatronics could also be kinda explained i guess, as they would be made to be similar to the Toys, which were the current "aesthetic" of Fazbear Entertainment, although i don't really think this needs to be explained So the death sequence would be MCI > DCI > Elizabeth, with her being killed by Baby between FNaF 2 and 1

    If the DCI is Scott's singular retcon, then does that make them now PTSD on the part of the withereds?(I mean memories of the MCI incident overlapping with the real world) The fnaf 2 mini games ARE memories of certain animatronics after all. Withered Freddy, Golden Freddy, The Puppet and Withered Foxy all have mini games that show some rather specific details of the narrative. Foxy saw Afton invade a party, Freddy was part of a special plan of the puppet's (mini game ends before elaboration),Golden Freddy received no mask from the puppet and the puppet remembers Afton killing the one person it was built to protect. These digital memories could've been used as evidence against Afton ironically, as they show him kill(twice) and tampering with animatronic(s).
