Welcome to what could either be the end of my Five Nights at Freddy’s theory-crafting career or the penultimate nail in the coffin for one of the most controversial debates in the FNaF community. In this first of two in-depth video essays, we’ll be exploring why The Bite Victim, also known as The Crying Child or Dave Afton, is Golden Freddy/The One You Should Not Have Killed, how William Afton’s actions prove he never truly loved his children, and why establishing foundational rules in FNaF theory-crafting is crucial. Beyond that, we’ll also examine how the discourse surrounding this topic has fueled toxicity within the fandom.

This deep dive into FNaF lore challenges long-standing assumptions and aims to bring clarity to a debate that has divided theorists for years. Whether you’re a veteran investigator or just beginning to unravel the mysteries of Five Nights at Freddy’s, this video will offer a fresh perspective on the franchise’s most elusive truths.

I am sick... no literally, I have a cold. But FNaF waits for no one. So here are my current thoughts and feelings on the new Five Nights at Freddy's Secret of The Mimic trailer. Expressed through a haze of cold medicine and Tylenol.

I literally don't remember scripting this or recording it.

(No hate towards Dawko, FuhNaff, and CistReact)

Trapped in the dark depths beneath the Mega Pizzaplex, Gregory awakens after a perilous fall into the underworkings of Freddy Fazbear’s Mega Pizzaplex. With Glamrock Chica decommissioned by the trash compactor, he must navigate the hazardous garbage-filled tunnels and escape the dangers lurking in the shadows. Will he make it back to the surface, or will the ruins of Freddy’s past become his tomb?
