FNAF THEORY PART 1: WHAT’S IN THE SAFE?
Link to the masterpost where I do a little intoduction: MASTERPOST
Ok, first part of this crazy theory. I think the safe is the game, and it contains everything: every pizzeria and facility, every minigame, every soul trapped, it's all inside of the box, and Evan / Crying Child is the one controlling it. I promise it’ll make more sense once I explain, so please, if you’re interested, keep reading, because this is a long ride. 
1) THE DEATH OF THE CRYING CHILD
We all know what happened to Evan: he’s tormented by his older brother and the day of his birthday Michael and his friend try to pull out a prank and it goes horribly wrong. Evan dies, and in his last moments, he hears what is probably the voice of his father saying: 
Tumblr media
But, what happens next?
The most popular theory and the one that most part of the fandom takes as canon is that Evan is the one possessing Golden Freddy. 
And well, here I am, trying to contradict it because I don’t have preservation skills or I’m too dumb to connect the dots that everyone sees. No, seriously, it is probably that I’m just dumb, but that doesn’t stop me from explaining why I think Evan isn’t possessing Golden Freddy, and that is because of the five souls.
The games are always referring to 5 souls trapped in the animatronics, not 6:
There are only 5 souls attacking William in FNAF 3.
The stories of Candy Cadet make reference to 5 souls, and yeah, it's really possible that those stories are about the kids.
The souls of the kids become Ennard and then Molten Freddy, but Elizabeth was also in Ennard, so the two siblings are sharing some space during that time, but the kids left Elizabeth out and not Evan, who’s also the son of William Afton?
If William knows about the souls possessing animatronics, why was he going to put one of the bodies in the same suit where his son is? As we see, there were some other animatronics that he could use, but he chose Golden Freddy.
Tumblr media
So, if Evan isn’t in Golden Freddy, where is he? 
Well, he’s everywhere. He isn’t possessing the animatronics, he possesses the entire place.
I know it is strange and it’s against the major theory but hear me out: Evan is a kid terrified of the animatronics, and he dies in a cruel and horrible way because of an accident. Maybe his mind is shattered, and he can’t remember all that happened, and his spirit is trapped in the place he was always afraid of, crying in a corner without no one noticing him, while a more violent part of him, the one that represents that agony, is the one dragging everyone who dies into his box. 
Or, maybe his soul stayed there not only because it is the place where he died, but also because, as the plush animatronics said to him at the end of FNAF 4.
Tumblr media
His family, the ones that were supposed to protect him, caused his death, so now he has to find someone new to protect him, and the animatronics, his old friends that started as the core of his fears, become his protectors. 
Think about Evan as the center of his own gravity field: every soul that dies in the pizzeria is trapped by Evan’s gravity, and can’t get out. That will explain, for example, why the souls of the kids are still in the pizzeria, even after William comes back and destroys the animatronics, or why the animatronics are always dragged back to the pizzeria. Ennard got away in Sister Location, but comes back as Molten Freddy in Pizzeria Simulator. The same goes for Springtrap or Baby.
They’re always dragged back, because they’re still trapped in Evan’s gravity. They can’t get out. 
So, I think that Evan is divided in two: his agony and violence (trapping the souls inside of his prision becuse of what happens, because no one helped him) and his fear, that observes everything. Evan’s soul stayed in the pizzeria because, in his last moments, the animatronics reminded him that they were friends. So he’s still afraid, and probably doesn’t remember a lot, but he’s watching and this is his home now. 
That brings us to the next point: 
2) THE PIZZERIAS = THE SAFE / THE BOX
This fucking box that no matter how hard you try, no one is able to open, and what’s inside is making the fandom go crazy. 
As I said before, I think the box represents the pizzerias and everything that is going on. We can’t open it, because that would mean that Evan and the rest of the souls are free, and the game would end. 
If the box is supposed to be a mirror of the game and the story, that would explain some things:
In Candy Cadet’s stories, the three end with the kids or the kittens locked inside of a room, a coffin or literally a box, mimicking how the souls of the kids are trapped in the pizzeria.
In the FNAF 3, you win the minigames by breaking the games and going out of the square to find the crying child. You know, by going out from the box, and that’s how you find the endings where you can free the souls of the kids. 
The map from Pizzeria Simulator resembles the box. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If the games are the box, then obviously if you go out of your way the game is going to break, that’s not supposed to happen. We can’t win, at least not for now, because that means that the game ended, and FNAF is not the type of game where you simply can win or find the answers. We have to decode things, and theorize, and break our minds to find the keys for the safe.
But why is telling us that some things are best left forgotten? Because, if we don’t forget, if we keep going, then there’s always going to be more, and the loop of suffering and death is going to continue. 
Maybe it is a warning, that the moment we understand what’s going on and the safe is open, then what’s the point? You save the souls, but you also finish the game. 
So, maybe we need to keep searching for the answers, until it's the time to open the box. 
But for now, we can’t win, we can’t save Evan, we can’t end the cycle.
Also, Scott said that the content of the box changed over time. If inside of the box is everything that’s going on, then yeah, the content has to change. 
But why am I so sure that Evan is possessing the place? The safe and the pizzeria could be the same thing without having to put Evan as the one creating the box. Couldn’t it just exist? 
Well, that’s for the next segment:
3) SHADOWS AND NIGHTMARES
When we play, we have two sections: the ones where we play as a night guard, and the minigames. The minigames are in a completely different style, and can go from telling us details about the plot or make us play as mangle running away from a child. 
But, what if those minigames were actually the things that Evan sees and remembers? As I said, his death is the thing that started this chain of events, he could see everything that happens: Charlie’s death, Elizabeth’s death, Balloon Boy giving balloons to the kids, William Afton destroying the animatronics… In FNAF 4, we play as him during his last days of life. 
Also, some evidence that the minigames are from Evan’s perspective:
In FNAF 4, we see details in the dolls animatronics that aren’t in the original animatronics (like Chica’s beak), but that are in the nightmare versions, aka Evan’s nightmares. If these scenes are from his perspective, it would make sense that  some details that are different from reality.
As I said, all the other scenes in the minigames are things that Evan could see if he’s possessing the places. Also, the fact that Evan’s memories and the minigames are in the same style.
If you beat the Balloon Boy minigame, you’ll see what’s like three coffins under a tree. The only three corpses that could be buried during the games were: Evan, Elizabeth (if William got his body back from Baby’s stomach) and Charlie. The bodies of the five kids were never found, William is rotting inside of Springtrap and Michael is literally a living corpse.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
But, do you remember when I said that maybe Evan could be a more vengeful ghost than we thought, or he could be divided in two: his agony, making the pizzeria a living hell, and his fear?
Well, I think that these emotions have a way to manifest in the games, and that’s where the shadow animatronics come in. 
Honestly, I don’t really know if someone already explained what the shadow animatronics are, and a friendly reminder that I’m stupid and maybe this is just some bonkers theory and you read all that and are asking yourself: what the fuck is she saying? 
But my mother didn’t raise a coward, she raised a girl that makes bad decisions, so let’s go: the shadows are the manifestation of Evan. During the games, we can see figures like Shadow Freddy or Shadow Bonnie, and if they are Evan, it would make sense because:
The shadow version doesn't follow the same norms as the other animatronics. They appear and disappear, like they aren’t there, and don’t attack the player.
Shadow Bonnie appears in FNAF 2 and FNAF 3, and it's near the code that lets you play the minigames. Evan, of all people, would be the one who has access to the minigames because, you know, they’re his memories. In addition to this, Shadow Bonnie has shiny eyes and teeth. The teeth I think are important, if we’re talking about Evan.
Tumblr media
Shadow Freddie appears in FNAF 2, has gray tears on his face and his eyes and teeth are also glowing. Teeth + black (Evan’s shirt) + tears = Evan. Like, a terrible way of manifesting fear and anxiety, but hey, it fits his character.
Tumblr media
In FNAF 3, Shadow Freddie is the one that guides the animatronics towards William, but his eyes or teeth are glowing. Maybe the other two represent Evan’s fear, and this one his violent feelings.
In FNAF 4, we can see tha shadow shiluettes of Fredbear and Springbonnie in Evan’s memories. Exactly the two animatronics that we see later on in the games and are also purple. 
If you look at Shadow Bonnie or Freddie for too long, it crashes the game or makes it go weird (Evan doesn’t like to be observed, ok?).
Shadow Balloon Boy also has gray tears, and appears when you break his minigame by going out from the box. 
Shadow Puppet appears in FNAF 3 in the crashed minigames, and do you know what it has? The gray tears, different from the original Puppet, whose tears are blue: 
Tumblr media
All of this: the colors, the way they act, how they appear and disappear, the design, the fact that the shadows don’t hurt the player… If they’re just that: versions of the animatronics we know that represent Evan, showing us that he’s not inside of Golden Freddy, but in all the place, it would explain why you have these mysterious figures that are never explained and make the game crash. 
Other animatronics that I think represent Evan are the Nightmares. The way they act are different from the shadows, that’s true, but what if they represent the violent part of his emotions, or Evan’s resentment for his family? Then, the nightmares go from the animatronics that scared him, to being a part of him. 
Evan knows who his friends are. 
I rewatched every scare jump in Ultimate Custom Night (don’t worry I’m still sleeping at night) and it seems that there are different people talking to William depending on the type of animatronics.
For example, Ballora and Baby’s lines are more personal:
Ballora: I could hear you… breathing. Admit it, you wanted to let me in. Why do you hide inside your walls? Don’t be shy. These are strange circumstances that have brought us together. → Ballora’s song, which is also implied to be a reference to William's wife (I have another theory talking about why I think the animatronics of Sister Location represent the Afton family).
Circus Baby: Looks like something bad happened. I guess you forgot about me. I guess you forgot about me. Do you want to see the scooping room? → William losing sight of his daughter, which led to Elizabeth’s death.
Scrap Baby: Time for your controlled shock. Time for your controlled shock. Let's see how many pieces I can cut you into. You won't die, but you'll wish you could. → Another reference to Elizabeth’s death that I will explain later. 
Their messages have references to things that happened in William’s life. 
Then, you have the weird ones, that are more vengeful and obsessed with keep William in hell:
Happy Frog: We've only just begun (Only just begun), I will never let you leave,(Never let you leave), I will never let you rest (Never let you rest).
Ned Bear: This is how it feels (How it feels)  and you get to experience it over, and over, and over again, forever (And you get to experience it over, and over, and over again forever) I will never let you leave (I will never let you leave).
Orville Elephant: He tried to release you, he tried to release us, but I won't let that happen, I will keep you here, I will hold you here, no matter how many times they burn us.
These three animatronics are using “I”, and are probably “the one you shouldn’t have killed”, that it’s keeping William in hell.
And then, we have the nightmares, whose lines are different in comparison, but all of them have something in common: they make references to Evan’s death.
Nightmare BB: Come closer. Help me count my teeth. Heh-heh-heh! You're not so big. Just a bite-sized morsel. You knew I'd get you eventually. There just isn't room in here for both of us. Heh-heh-heh… Flash that light all you want. It can't save you now. → Evan used a flashlight with the nightmare animatronics. 
Nightmare: You will not be spared. You will not be saved. The shadow fears me. I am your wickedness made of flesh. I am here to claim… what is left of you. I will vomit you back... to relive your horror.
Nightmare Fredbear: Let me put you back together and then take you apart all over again. Let's see how many times you can be pulled apart. I assure you, I am very real. This time, there is more than an illusion to fear. We know who our friends are and you are not one of them. → Lines that William said to Evan before he died and a reference to Evan’s “friends”. That last line could imply that Evan now sees the nightmare animatronics as part of him, they’re now his friends. Also, this time there’s more than an illusion because this time Evan’s nightmares are real.
Nightmarionne: This is a nightmare that you won't wake from. This time, death cannot save you. The nightmare is just beginning. Let's taste death again… and again… and again. I am the fearful reflection of what you have created. → What did William create? The animatronics. What did he also create? Murder. I know he wasn’t the culprit of Evan’s death, but he was his dad, and never said a thing about Michael scaring his brother and I honestly think that the one who forgot Evan at the pizzeria was William and not Michael. He’s not the one who caused the death, but he’s still guilty. Or, at least, he’s for Evan.
Nightmare Freddy: I am remade, but not by you, by the one you should not have killed. No light can save you now. I have always been hiding in your shadow. What a gift to relish, a victim that can't perish. I am given flesh, to be your tormentor. → Here, there’s a reference to “the one you should not have killed”, but the line doesn’t use an “I”, as the weird ones. Also, another reference to Williams' words to Evan. 
There are more lines and animatronics, but these are the important ones (for now). It appears that there isn’t just one person torturing William, or, at least, that person is using multiple identities to attack him: his wife and daughter, the weird ones express the killer intent, and the nightmares are all about Evan. 
Not only that, but they also mention shadows on two occasions: they control the shadows, and they hide in them. Which is a connection to the shadow animatronics!
In addition to that, when we play Help Wanted and we got to night terrors from FNAF 4 what are the four levels: Nightmarionne (nightmare version of the Puppet), Circus Baby (Evan’s sister), Nightmare Freddy and Funtime Freddy (who I think is also connected to Evan but in a different way, because William designed the animatronic as a present for his son. Read this theory if you want a brief explanation). 
And, Scott said: What we see in the shadows is easily missunderstood in the mind of a child. Another relation with Evan and the shadows.
In conclusion: Evan dies, his soul possesses the pizzeria and his emotions (fear and agony) manifest in the form of the shadow animatronics or, in other games, the nightmares; the minigames are his memories and what he sees while possessing the pizzeria, and he’s the reason why the souls are trapped in there.
And that’s what it is in the box and why we can’t open it. 
I wasn’t expecting this to be so long. Hope you’re liking the theory. I’m going to take a nap. 
NEXT PART -> [WILLIAM AFTON]

How about Daigo for the character ask? :D
Excellent choice c: 
character: hate them | don’t really care | like them | LOVE them | THEY ARE MY PRECIOUS
Dojima Daigo is a good and precious son and we do not deserve him. Daigo has never done anything wrong in his life, I agree with every decision he’s ever made and I love him. God, we don’t fucking deserve him. 
ship with: Mine Yoshitaka! Look, I know that in fanon Daigo has cuter, well, at least more stable boyfriends (I’m sorry, Ryuji is a hot piece of ass and Shinada is a fuzzy apricot of adorable, but Mine’s good looks are Razor Sharp. Will cut a bitch with his cheekbones and tailored suit.), but my life and soul for DaiMine. 
Mine experienced one (1) whole human emotion and it was love for Daigo and went FUCKING BALLISTIC. I’m sorry, but I have a THING for that kind of imprinting shit. Mine was a fucking well oiled machine, cold numbers and rock hard muscle all the way down. And then he sees Daigo, brilliant, kind, powerful Daigo and Mine Loses It. I am a slut for that shit. Daigo is just this genuinely good person who looks at Mine and isn’t afraid, isn’t disgusted, he’s intrigued, he’s charmed even, by Mine’s cold contempt for others and yet desperate grasping for meaning. It’s cute, the way he doesn’t understand that meaning is derived from relationships and that’s why he feels so empty, he doesn’t have any. Daigo can’t help but reach out to him. It’s funny, really, to see someone so smart be so stupid. And Mine... melts, at a kind word, at the barest of effort. All Daigo had to do was not be afraid and Mine’s open as a book. How could he not fall in love with that? Hopeless robot, utterly undone at a look. How could you not love that?
(Not to mention how HARD I am for the fact that the ENTIRE PLOT OF GAME 3 turns on a fucking dime over them. I LOVE that I didn’t see it coming AT ALL and when it happened it 1000% made sense. Jesus, that was FANTASTIC. Mine screaming that he was in love with Daigo the whole time is the greatest thing I’ve ever seen and game 3 is fucking great. Almost redeemed that fucking golf minigame. Oh god the golf minigame... okay, maybe redeemed is too strong a word...)
brotp: Majima probs, maybe Akiyama. Defs Ryuji, eventually. It would take a second for the antagonism to cool, but I think they could be good friends later. Kiryu is his Dad and while he’s pretty bro with Kiryu, he’s still Dad. His real dad. The man he looks to when everything his wrong. And it’s hard to be bros, equals, with someone you admire and look up to so much. 
Majima’s sort of weirdly placed because he is of Kiryu’s generation, not Daigo’s, but Majima refuses to be a mentor the way Kiryu is. Oh, he’s happy to keep an eye on Daigo and nudge him in the right direction, but he’s not taking on parenting duties, he can’t. He’s Daigo’s right hand, an enforcer and an advisor, but not a superior, never that. Majima will argue with him if he thinks he’s wrong, but won’t insist that he knows best, and will follow orders even if he thinks they’re wrong. Majima has no wish to be in charge and doesn’t have the emotional capacity to parent Daigo like that. He’s far too aware that Daigo is Kiryu’s kid, not his. And besides, Majima has his own family to tutor and bring up right. So he’s bros with Daigo, gives him a word and an ear when he needs it, and is always there when Daigo has a tough call to make and can’t do it alone. Majima is a true bro.
general opinions: I’m really sad that Daigo isn’t given more weight in the games. I REALLY love what we do with him in game 4, I love how he fucks up, I love that his decisions entirely make sense. I wish we talked more about how Kiryu running off to Okinawa leaves Daigo in a very vulnerable position. I wish we talked more about how Kiryu abandoned his son with the responsibilities he refused to take. I wish we talked more about how they ARE Kiryu’s responsibilities and Daigo is taking on shit that he shouldn’t have had to. And doing a GREAT fucking job. Daigo is much wiser than his years and an incredibly clever and cunning chairman. He’s so fucking competent and that’s so wonderful to see in, as someone once put it, a series that is built on the backs of himbos. It just would be nice if the relationship between Kiryu and Daigo wasn’t so strained, it’d be nice if the games let them talk about all Kiryu owes him and to let Kiryu be proud of him, this boy who’s been through hell, but has tried so hard to live up to what his dad wanted him to be. And he did. I love Dojima Daigo.

Here we are!
Thank you, dear readers for submitting your thoughts on UCN, it’s time for us to do the same. We believe it is Michael’s Hell. Hold on for a second, and let us explain, but first, let’s explore and talk about the views you have submitted, thank you each and everyone who did!
(Full post under the cut)
@mymandakat​ says
Tumblr media
That’s completely understandable! Keeping up with FNaF is rough, and that’s an understandable viewpoint, however with so many voicelines that are... Striking we can’t really feel the same way
@starryoak​ says:
Tumblr media
God, is this a relatable one. But, as I shall elaborate on further later, I feel Will deserves something more biting. Torturous. Fitting for an abusive, manipulative, murderous liar.
@cuddlycat4​ says:
Tumblr media
A great point! Plus I feel if we played as William, some form of Michael would be there, maybe after he’s scooped.
@funtime-innards​ says:
Tumblr media
That’s fair! I’ve seen a lot of reasons why it could be William’s hell, and a lot of them raise fair points, but if you’ll hold on, let us explain our findings (as best we can, without spoilers, of course!)
@kittyqueen445​ says
Tumblr media
Again, fair enough! But for us, the opposite is true.
@smiranna1210 (Who I can’t tag for some reason >:/) says: 
Tumblr media
First off, no need to apologize! believe me, if anyone should be apologizing it’s me ><, to continue, I’ll go ahead and delve into our pre-prepared lines we went into:
“I recognize you, but I’m not afraid of you, not anymore.” -The Puppet
  We know that Michael was a bully when he was younger, as evidenced in the FNAF 4 minigames. And with some fancy calculations, we can determine that Michael was at least 11 years older than Charlotte. This could account for why she would be scared of him.   If you were a young child watching someone bigger, and taller picking on kids, you’d be terrified! I was bullied when I was younger, and even kids who were younger and shorter than me were scary.   It would certainly also make sense for it to be William, but I feel like another Puppet quote would also back us up.
“I don’t hate you, but you need to stay out of my way.” -The Puppet 
  She sees Michael as someone who interferes with bringing life to the children, but doesn’t feel hatred toward him like she does for William.   And for your reference to Orville, we have an idea for that as well:
“He tried to release you, he tried to release us, but I’m not gonna let that happen. I will hold you here, I will keep you here, no matter how many times they burn us.” -Orville Elephant    This refers to Henry trying to release the souls by burning down the pizzeria, Orville using the “they” pronoun could be referring to the minions of hell because Henry only burned down a pizzeria with them once. And as for Michael, he seems to be a much more unaware component to Henry’s plan.
@fnafcomicsartandaus​ says:
Tumblr media
Once again, completely understandable! we’ll go over the rest of the voicelines very soon, and I can totally see that being a satisfying conclusion, but we have some ideas that might also be a lovely conclusion.
Anonymous says:
Tumblr media
William does deserve hell yes, but again, doesn’t he deserve to be in a Hell more permanent? And as for the one you should not have killed, Michael’s hands are not clean. Michael has done wrong, but wrongs that can be made right. It’s not entirely his fault, either. We’ll go into it more in the comic, if you’ll care to stick around.
And lastly, @cherry-s-poison​ says:
Tumblr media
Now, this has been one of the most intriguing cases for William’s hell I’ve seen. However, I do still want to provide our (almost) full evidence for Michael’s hell, if you’d care to read...
  We believe that by playing through and beating UCN, you are playing as Michael trying to redeem your soul. Michael has sinned. He bullied his brother and accidentally killed him, but he is not beyond saving.   Michael resides in the 5th circle of hell, the circle of wrath, where the dead fight each other.   William, however, is beyond redemption. His hell is deeper, more permanent. He resides in the third ring of the 9th circle of hell where traitors to their guests are frozen in ice, and we can hear his screams from the fifth circle. William is a traitor to his guests because he killed children who came to be entertained at his pizzeria. In Dante's Inferno, it is explained the once a person commits such treachery against their guest, their soul falls to Ptolomea (the 3rd round of the 9th ring) before their body is even dead and that their body is then inhabited by a demon until it's natural death.
And now for the quotes that stand out to us the most:
“I can’t run like I used to, but I can pull myself apart just fine.” -Foxy (If you play as Michael in every game, sometimes under assumed names, you would know how fast Foxy used to run to get into your office.
“You won’t get tired of dying, will you?” -Toy Chica (It is established in The Fourth Closet that William has yet to die. He somehow, miraculously keeps hanging on, even under extreme circumstances. Michael, however, gets scooped and dies, yet manages to regain control over his body as some sort of zombie. And, again, if we are playing as Michael the entire time, we see him die over and over with every jumpscare.)
“Where is my beak? Lodged in your forehead, of course.” (In FNAF 2, we have a time where we find Toy Chica’s beak is missing, and in FNAF 4, the girl with the toys of the animatronics has a Chica with a missing beak. These would be things that Michael would have seen.)
“Now I can play take apart and put back together! You won’t feel a thing.” -Mangle (This alludes to the fact that Michael worked in the FNAF 2 location where the Mangle was a pull-apart and put-together attraction.)
“I wanted to wait for just the right moment to drop in!” -Mangle (Mangle drops in on their victims to bite them in the face, which they try on Michael in FNAF 2)
“He’s here and always watching, the one you shouldn’t have killed.” -Mangle (William has killed multiple children, and if we were to break it down to “the one you shouldn’t have killed,” it would be Charlotte [a girl]. Whereas, we watch Michael feed his little brother to Fredbear. Later in the game, we hear a flatline, signaling that the brother died. This is the one Michael shouldn’t have killed.)
“Come face the consequences of your failure.” -Withered Bonnie (Michael has failed to save the children. In FNAF 2, we see the Puppet tell Michael to Help Them! Save Them! Then there is the message: You Can’t.)
“I have seen him, the one you shouldn’t have killed.” -Withered Chica (Another reference to the “ONE” you shouldn’t have killed.)
“Seeing you powerless is like music to me.” -The Puppet (We know that music soothes the puppet. Without music, she comes at Michael. Seeing him powerless is also comforting to her.)
“I am remade, but not by you, by the one you should not have killed.” -Nightmare Freddy (WIthout giving too much away with what we think the first part of this means, we have another reference to the “ONE” you should not have killed.)
“The light can’t save you now.” -Nightmare Freddy (Michael flashes the light to get rid of the nightmares.)
“What a gift to relish, a victim that can’t perish” -Nightmare Freddy (Baby has stated that Michael won’t die. While his body does in fact die, unlike William, Michael’s spirit remains as he has unfinished business)
“Let me put you back together, then take you apart all over again,” and “Let’s see how many times you can be pulled apart.” -Nightmare Fredbear (Michael broke his brother by sticking him into the Fredbear’s mouth. Now it’s Fredbear’s turn to break Michael.)
“This time, there is more than an illusion to fear.” -Nightmare Fredbear(These are Michael’s nightmares, his fears, and now they are real because he is in purgatory.)
“We know who our friends are, and you are not one of them.” -Nightmare Fredbear (If you go to the pile of toys in Michael’s brother’s room, he tells you that these are his friends. They are not, however, Michael’s friends.
“Greetings from the fire, and the one you should not have killed.” -Jack o’ Chica (Another reference to the one you should not have killed.)
“This is a nightmare that you won’t wake from.” -Nightmarionne (Michael has nightmares, but now that he is truly dead, he will not wake from them.
“This time, death cannot save you.” -Nightmarionne (Nightmarionne is not canon, which could mean that there is no actual animatronic stalking Michael, but rather just a nightmare. Every time Michael gets jumpscared in game, he dies again, but is able to return because as Baby said, “He won’t die.” But in hell, death will not save Michael from the eternal torment, only beating the game will release his soul to heaven.)
“I am the fearful reflection of what you have created.” -Nightmarionne (This one is a little too spoiler-y, so I can’t go into it, but needless to say, Michael is the one who is scared of his reflection.)
“I guess you forgot about me.” -Circus Baby (We know that Michael is William’s son. We also know that Elizabeth is WIlliam’s daughter. Did Michael forget he had a sister?)
“Want to see the scooping room?” -Circus Baby 
(Baby tricks Michael into going into the scooping room, so she and the others [as Ennard] can take over Michael’s body.)
“You won’t die, but you’ll wish you could.” -Scrap Baby
 (At the end of Sister Location, we see a scooped Michael with Ennard inside throw up Ennard, fall down, and we hear Baby’s voice say, “He won’t die,” over and over again. Then zombie Michael gets up and all of Ennard’s eyes look at him from the sewer.)
I would love to go into Lefty’s lines here, but it’s too spoiler-y for what we have planned.
Bonus:
I know it may seem strange to cram FNAF 4 and Sister location together, but I think Nightmare’s lines really back this theory up.
“I am your wickedness, made flesh.” -Nightmare
 (Michael gets scooped on Night 5 of Sister Location, but he is still haunting his own body while Ennard is wearing him as a skin suit. Nightmare appears on Night 7, and is the embodiment of Michael’s worst fears.)
“I am here to claim what is left of you.” -Nightmare
 (It may be that Nightmare is possibly acting as the Grim Reaper, here to collect what remains of Michael after he is scooped.)
“I will vomit you back, to relive your horror.” -Nightmare
 (After Michael walks around with Ennard inside his skin for several days, he vomits up the spaghetti monster. If Nightmare is there, a animatronic personification of Michael’s fears and his death, Nightmare would know of this. Michael might fear being vomited up by an animatronic because it would have meant losing the fight against Ennard.)
To conclude, we thank everyone for sticking with us through the walls of text. There was a lot of information, and interesting opinions to comb through, and we hope we have shed some light and inspired opinions of your own. Thank you for lending your ears (or eyes, for that matter) and we hope you continue to enjoy the comic!
