  ALSO I forgot but the Help Wanted 2 graves I think are meant to be the order they&apos;re freed as the MCI is in 1985 and we know Charlie dies in 1983 from that very same game by making us input the 1983 code to NOT get the Golden Freddy memory but instead the PUPPET MEMORY (aswell as the Book Trilogy stating 1983 as a fact multiple times), so I highly doubt it&apos;s meant to be about her death date. Not only that but Charlie cannot die before the MCI for many reasons, mainly the &quot;wound first inflicted on me&quot; is either her dying first in the timeline (like I believe) or at most it&apos;s about her being the first murder, she needs to be gone by the time the MCI die for Give Gifts Give Life where she guides the MCI souls, etc etc etc. I&apos;d recommend checking out ID Fantasy&apos;s explaination for what the grave order may mean instead: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/shorts/3PwWnyAZciU">https://youtube.com/shorts/3PwWnyAZciU</a><br><br>2025 VIDEOS ARE FINALLY HERE!

  I never liked the fandom trying to make Afton more sympathetic by implying he was just a father in mourning or trying to bring his kids back. Him just being a huge tool who killed a child out of jealousy and then barely cared when he got his own kids killed after makes the most sense to me.

  i never understood why people interpreted an empty bedroom as Elizabeth already being dead in 4. If anything, the toy on the floor implies the room is lived-in, currently. She just wasn&apos;t there at the time. If she was dead, someone would have packed up the toy by now. Some parents might leave the room exactly as-is forever to honour their child, but in those cases they probably wouldn&apos;t let other kids go in there so to not disturb the belongings etc.

  It’s kinda crazy if 3 of the 4 children of the founders all died in a single year, like at that point you’d probably have to look at William and Henry and really question their parenting

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SugbaghWhqg&amp;t=965">16:05</a> with poss. Elizabeth’s room being empty: if we know that Mr &amp; Mrs Afton’s relationship isn’t good (she’s rarely mentioned, so she’s either dead or gone) couldn’t it be that Elizabeth is at her mother’s if there’s been a divorce?

  Crazy thought, this makes me wonder if Willie A wanted Elizabeth to get scooped. Something about telling her not to play with Baby. Baby is perfectly safe around others. But saying that to a small child, its like you&apos;re asking for them to sneak off alone to do the exact opposite. And why else did he make it &quot;just for her&quot;, if he didnt plan for her to get scooped?

  Charlie dying first might explain why Dave is well a crying child, the death of probably a close friend will finally provide a reason why he cries so much.

  i am also charlie -&gt; cc -&gt; elizabeth; i was pleasantly surprised that this video came to the same conclusion. what got me on the cc -&gt; elizabeth train was actually the fnaf movie! my interpretation of the fnaf movie was that it was something of an au, where the two main fathers of the series swapped children. not that this is <b>explicitly</b> what the movie is; it&apos;s moreso a matter of parallels. in the movie, the cc standin dies before the elizabeth standin, and overwhelmingly so, dying before she was even conceived. i&apos;ve always assumed that elizabeth was something of a filler baby following the death of cc.

  There is nothing like FNAF, 10 years in and there is so much we still don&apos;t know about the story. I love it, you guys do such good work with these theories

  I feel like the MCI comes before Elizabeth&apos;s death. The Funtimes seem way too sophisticated and &quot;futuristic&quot; for them to be created first and also it does seem like the MCI happens and William kills the children &quot;manually&quot; as opposed to using the funtimes. Like, if the funtimes were created before the MCI why wouldn&apos;t he just use them to capture the children and/or just stuff their bodies in them instead of the Freddy&apos;s animatronics? The only evidence of the MCI coming after Elizabeth&apos;s death is him seeing Baby&apos;s eyes become green and so then he does the MCI but honestly he could also just have seen the puppet move around and that made him experiment with the MCI. I feel like that makes sense
