He took some of the best horror movie advice: make sure the villain is actually dead. And because this is Springtrap, of course he wasn’t dead. At least in some ways.
Out of all theories, this theory is by far the most convincing and best story about Mike being there for so long. Mike is always around the place and everywhere you go, he follows.
I just took note of a weird thing but: In the security breech room there is exotic butters on the tv set. Yet that is intended to be a full recreation of Michael Afton's room. However, for exotic butters to appear there you need the "fake/good ending" This means going to the office, fending off Ennard, go home, and Ennard drag himself to you in the end. I know it calls itself the "fake ending" but what if the exotic butters being in that room tells us which Sister Location ending is canon? How much would the "fake" ending being canon actually change our understanding of FNAF lore and how would that tie to Security Breech lore? That room is there for a reason after all. It's pointing out something. The butters could be our key as funny as it is.
i mean, who's to say Ennard didn't get the exotic butters after coming back home with Mike's skinsuit? they are shown to come back home and live a semi regular life as mike after all, so it's possible they got the butters in the normal ending too, even if we don't get to see them
Well... If that was the case, and we brainstorm a bit. The worst scenario is that more people are aware of Ennard, and more people are killed by Ennard so they can continue their plan, which means potentially more kids dying and more agony and more souls are within Ennard or something. I've forgotten a lot of settings after Sister Location, correct me if I'm wrong
As much as I want him to be alive, there’s just one problem: the temperature in FNAF 6. When the cutscene happens, we watch it rise up and up, implying he’s in the vents. Those were getting sealed, and if he’s there, he may not have a way out. Remnant doesn’t do well in heat, and Michael is just a single man. He may just melt in the vents as the metal makes it impossibly hot and breaks down the remnant in his system. It’s a minor detail, but it’s one that was omitted and should be stated as a counterpoint to this theory.
A BIG THING. In the ruin ending gregory described someone but it got cut off by static, we know freddy and vanessa are with Gregory. So why hide it from us. Its clear there is another person involved, which has "building blueprints to the location" but it doesnt describe freddy or vanessa saying it. New character or old character. And the scrapped thing in fnaf ar to me comfirmed it, micheal survived the fire in some way, my favorite character btw.
Your onto something, and if I remember correctly, William pointed Mike to sister location, right? Like have him a map of how to access the secret entrance, workshop or whatever. Meaning Mike *would have those maps* Now I could be remembering wrong, FNAF lore is still confusing to me -_-
Dang... Mike in a way got CC back because Gregory, he also has Vanessa who is kinda like Elizabeth. Sometimes a family is a Zombie, a traumatized security guard with a fursuit, a not so human orphan, and a robo bear head
@@amymartinez5232 NEVER! not while the matpat zombies who believe anything he says still stand! And even though he's gone, the guy who made up the whole 'gregory is a robot' theory takes his place! You will never silence me!!!
Honestly, i think he survived since fnaf isnt prone to finally kill off important characters, and if he is the nightguard in fnaf 3, he probably saw that fire wouldnt kill Afton
That or he's possessing Glamrock Freddy since revenge won't put his soul to rest and torturing his father in Ultimate Custom Night didn't wash away his guilt.
@@Persimmon499 yeah, I haven't played the game so I'm not ascribing to that theory. Glamrock Freddy just has a very advanced AI that could be partially derived from Mike's personality and perhaps his brother Cassidy's personality if the data he was trained on had Mike and Cassidy as part of it's data set.
In the true ending of help wanted 2 it revealed Vanessa went back to stop the mimic only to become vanny again and Cassie’s father freeing vanny from the mimic
Huh, one of the OG theories being talked about once again, but with Mike being a guest in the Pizzaplex and Gregory being a robot programmed to bring down the brand… While I would originally find those two theories ridiculous for a while, I think this video just made me renounce that statement. 😅
Even though Michael is my favorite character in the entire franchise, I prefer to believe that he is dead. The sacrifice he and Henry made in FNAF 6 was too epic and marked his legacy, if he comes back to life, the weight of that sacrifice will simply be discarded.
@dragondastan4763 it wasn't if you consider mimic is burntrap means afton is still gone and most of the spirits bar the suffering energy piloting the blob, mimic, and cassidy are still around
I personally believe that the story should've ended of fnaf 6, but if William is back, then I'd like for Michael to be back too. I like the idea of Michael being the antithesis to William, so if William afton always comes back, then his son will always be there to stop him.
Michael Afton is not Freddy. I thought that, too, but I also thought Evan, Michael’s little brother, was Freddy, too when he thought that he was the only Freddy. But Michael is Helpy. People forgot that Helpy is the one and only character that has not a huge role like every other character, but is still a massive part of Fnaf. And it goes as far back as Pizzeria Simulator.
Or it could be Michael who is now the CEO of Fazbear Entertainment. While he has deep remorse for everything that happened, Fazbear is all he has left. The animatronics aren't just a remembrance of the horror's caused by his father, but they're a reminder that they are like a family to him. Especially considering the rest of his family are animatronics (Minus Mrs. Afton....maybe). It's possible that Mike became aware of the Mimic being free and knew he had to do anything he could to keep it from getting out. It's also possible he may have salvaged his father as a means of controlling the Mimic. Sort of like a locking ones own mind into a comatose body so it can't actually escape type thing. Mike repurposed the MXES system to keep the dark secrets locked away while still watching over Fazbear. Not to destroy it, but maybe to make it what it was supposed to be. And also as a memorial to his siblings and those who died by William's hand. Why else would all the old memorabilia be on display as if in a museum all around the pizza plex? It's possible while Vanny may have taken Bonnie out through Monty, Mike might have collaborated with Cassie's dad to transfer him into the MXES as it's guardian. This would play into the theory of "Jeremy fought back before William unalived him" that some fans bring up. The most important thing of this is Gregory. It's possible that Mike might have taken over his father's research on making humanoid looking animatronics and chose to make one that was a close resemblance to his brother. Not a remnant filled robot, but just a robot that acted human and who could live a life that CC never did. It's possible that maybe Vanessa is also a robot and she is the replacement for Elizabeth. This would also explain the mixed personalities and how one part of her is so easily controlled by Glitchtrap/ The Mimic program. Just like Baby. Half of her a small girl's soul and the other half a cold & cruel program searching for a way out.
Very interesting. 🤔😀👍 We know that the Bonnie bully exists, but it makes you wonder what happened to the bullies that wore the chica and Freddy mask? Not to mention the DJ music man wind up toys are sentient, but it makes you wonder what is it that’s causing them to move around? It could be MXES, because in Ruin, we see them hanging around the security nodes in Bonnie Bowl.
Good morning!!! This is a very interesting video as I definitely wasn't expecting this this morning before school. So this is amazing as always! I would've just said it was the remnant that kept him alive. Just like his father, or rather, he is so determined to be alive and ending the franchise just like Cassidy 👀
Have you considered in FNaF Pizzeria Sim after Henry does his speech the thing that congratulations you plays right after? It might’ve been foreshadowing that William’s still alive because we play as Micheal so therefore mike is alive as well?
I'm just saying that there are other ways to make someone (adults you know what I mean) so when mike says that he built gregory he could just mean gregory is his son which is what I think and as for the whole memory wiped thing, I believe that glitchtrap has gotten into his mind so he wouldn't remember killing those counsellors and I know everybody's saying that there is proof that gregory is a robot because of the freddy voice lines but I think that glamrock freddy is mike possessing him but I do still think that he survived the fnaf 6 fire but died later on before security breach possibly to foxy. Anyway, I think that mike/freddy is using the glitchrap virus on gregory for some reason I don't know why yet so when he says that gregory is broken its because he's no longer under the control of glitchrap I know there are a lot of flaws in that theory so feel free to argue with me in the comments about it I would love to see your side of it
Actually, in the Spanish subtitles for Ruin, it says "amiga", which is the female noun for "friend". It obliterates the mystery of who Gregory's friend is but at least it's an answer
Pronouns in other languages have been wrong before, like with patient 46 being referred to as female. So it seems the translators don't know anything and just have to assume.
@@Totallyunrad I don’t know if this voice line is canon but I heard one of Springtrap ( or scarp trap ) saying he’s the only one who can pull that off 😂 I would love to see a confrontation in the end of fnaf which is just some kind of stand off between Mike and his father. Like a game with Gregory or something and in the end the newest form of springtrap wants to kill him but then a door behind them opens and there’s Mike with a fleshlight activating a scooper or another furnace or even a door to hell itself to get rid of him. 😂
This theory is proving my point about the Twisted ones mirror/Parallel. A robot in human guise destroying robots that hunt living people. Literally the plot of the Twisted ones, Glamrock Freddy even substituting for the OG band. After all he gets 4 powers in security breach. He starts with his base one and gets 3 more from each Glamrock Gregory 'decommissions'. Making him a substitute for 4 entities.
Do one if withered Chica is possessed because in fnaf 3 it’s not her it’s fnaf 1 chica and in order to for them to be in fnaf 3 their spirits come to be alive.
I believe I have a theory of my own that might support Matpat's theory and your's in this video. I do believe that Michael Afton is still around like what you said in this video, he does have his own hidden room after all. I also believe that he has something to do with Glamrock Freddy. Let's be honest here, these Glamrock animatronics are highly advanced animatronics from the future. What if Michael Afton made his own modifications to Glamrock Freddy before the pizzaplex even opened. I believe that Micheal is using Glamrock Freddy just like what his father did with the fredbear plush/lonely freddy from fnaf4 but as a remote controlled robot. Peepaw Afton used a speaker to speak through the fredbear plush, Michael could easily do the exact same thing with Glamrock Freddy. Using a controller and speaker from wherever he is to control Glamrock Freddy so that he could continue and complete his mission, to take down his father and the fazbear name for good. NOT EVERYTHING HERE IS POSSESSION PEOPLE, THIS IS THE FUTURE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT!! I like and strongly believe this theory. Like if you agree.
I dont think charlotte died at fredbears but i do still think fredbears is the fnaf 6 pizzaria as in sister location we can see the road that led to fredbears in sister locations custom night, meaning sister location is somewhat close to fredbears, and if the scooper in ruin is the same then that would still mean fredbears is the fnaf 6 location
So in FNAF 6, some poor mooch who was so desperate for cash to put up with crazed animatronics and a suicidal Henry, they end up getting killed because of an assumption.
My therory is that Micheal is glameock freddy and the only reason he doesnt try to kill gregory is that he looks like evan and he wants to apoligize to him but he cant
@TwistedAnimatronic do you think there is a link between your theorie and the deactivation of Glamrock Foxy and Glamrock Bonnie ? (Maybe Michael and the Bonnie Bully used them before Gregory ?)
I could picture both being true, Michael surviving and being Glamrock Freddie. If he were caught and put down or if he decided tried to put his own Remnant in a new body because his own was in such bad condition. Or even having transferred another way as we see that bodies and souls can coexist in proximity while not being united with William in the basement and being Glitchtrap.
I have a FANF Au where there are more animations or at lest one more and I call them or her,glamrock Kitty and she was good friends with Freddy just like Bonnie was but she didn't have the Vanny virus or not yet and at some point Mike may have hacked Kitty and made her more of a good guy or something like that and at some point Kitty brings Freddy down to the underground pizza place and she kills Freddy or at least deactivated him because he had the Vanny virus and Mike fix Freddy and upgraded him and he doesn't have the Vanny virus and Freddy and Kitty don't remember this happening and everything goes back to normal but Kitty gets sent to a different location for some reason and in security breach when Freddy goes under the pizza plex he starts to remember and that why he say "I have been here before,she brought me here" 11:49 .P.S.I made this Au because of two things because how Freddy is the only animatronic that doesn't want to hurt Gregory besides Sunny and the other reasons is that Freddy had a built in so he can make fire with one of his fingers when he is supposed to be around kids and that is not safe yet he has it.
I think Michael possessed glamrock Freddy I'm not me also Michael never possessed any Animatronic And glamrock Freddy has blue eyes just like Michael did in sister Location image neighborhood also There is a sister location area with tv and scooper in security breach ruin
I wish Scott would create a book where the whole story is written. It’s just so difficult to know wich theory is right, wich is not and it’s really complicated. I wish there was just one book with everything found out so far wich is Scott approved.
I'm still not convinced about Mike's life status, there is a recreation of his room yes but so every part of the Pizzaplex with Freddy's merchandise and you can only access by taking photos, a memory so this could relate to his not him. And from what we've seen in Into the pit game, it is no coincidence that we can visit memories (I think this what the book and its game is telling us) Your theory only works if: 1) Is Gregory NOT a robot, since we established that he is GGY meaning he took orders from Glitchtrap 2) Glamrock Freddy is not possesed by Michael (probably)
Yknow, annoyingly it still could be Vanessa that guides Cassy in the end. Yes, the static is short, but it's not short enough that you couldn't quickly say 'Vanessa's' in it. I do agree with the fact of Mike still being around and possibly helping though. I wouldn't be surprised if he asked Bonnie Bully to make him a robot suit to help him finish his business... Though that might make him feel too similar to his father. Maybe Mike doesn't even decompose. After all, the only reason we have for this is the purple skin colour and how he moves. The 'odor' excuse was used all the way back in FNAF 2, so he may not need an endoskeleton to survive.
What if greg is mike reincarnated and programmed. The code on the wall could litterally be gregories code. Like how the animatronics are controlled with drawings in the movie.The room could have been made for him, to give him a safe space in the plex. Gregory goes into the battery stations with freddy showing he can withstand high voltage.
The big problem with this theory is that it is reliant on cut content. Without the cut content we could still have Mike in play via possessing Glamrock Freddy. We know souls can gain more awareness and control over themselves because we saw that with Baby -> Scap Baby. We also have the parallels between the Afton children and the princess quest ending of Security Breach which heavily implies the spirit likely possessing Glamrock Freddy is Michael Afton. Now this would also imply that Elizabeth is somehow connected to Vanessa [which has no lack of options] and that Gregory is connected to the crying child [also no lack of options]. Now, Mike possessing Glamrock Freddy does not mean he did not escape the fire. We know many people have gone missing and it is implied that the staff specifically were killed. Assuming Mike was a staff member then he might have been killed somehow with the others. The timeline is vague and we do not have concrete dates for the majority of events in the games. For all we know Vanessa could be Elizabeth reborn, Mikes Daughter, Williams Daughter [4th child?] or could be William's only actual child [retcon indie developer]. We don't know anything for sure but all of the interpretations can be argued with the vague evidence we currently have.
Michael could have brought back regardless, but they went above and beyond to leave his faith ambiguous that it literally doesn’t matter, Michael coming back fits thematically because he shouldn’t be able to rest until his father is purged in all forms.
A bit late here but there's a bare human foot print in the pizza plex (I can't remember in what room) and as far as we know Mike is the only human character was see bare foot
What about the ending where he rises from the ashes and makes promises that he’s gonna rectify things at the end of the fire he literally climbs out of ashes from the burnt building
What if fazbear entertainment (FE) isn't the harvester, and in fact, is *actively investigating* what's going on while cooperating with the police, and instead, it was some bad group who infiltrated FE. There are no real signs to it now, but it could really explain the way the animatronics flip-flop, going from being genuinely good to monsters and back. I mean... why write a *virus* to alter the programming of *your* animatronics when it would've been much easier to put a signed patch to the code, leaving none the wiser? I also like the idea of a SB-like game (possibly VR compatible?) where you go in and *properly* repair the crew, destroying the virus code, giving them new faces, and using their help to explore the location further and fix more, until they're back at the pristine state they were in at the very beginning of SB and we finally get introduced to *new* evils, who are trying to corrupt FE, or whatever they can, to harvest remnant... Might also be fun if you could play *as* the robots, kinda like some other games where you got like 5 stories/perspectives (or more, if we wanna bring in the fox and the bunny) and really the whole goal is just to... IDK save some people, discover some big dark secret? escape? either way I feel like playing as a "random adult" could be helpful for it
whats the animations on pre scooped Michael, I always tried looking for them but can never find them, I know they are very popular but I can never find them
Yet isn't Mike the vengeful spirit though? Haven't played the games, but after having seen dual process theory's theory it makes sense. So let's say he couldn't fully move on after tormenting William in Ultimate Custom Night? That would give him the motivation to possess Glamrock Freddy and help a boy that reminds him of his brother Cassidy. But time will tell if that's the case or if it's Cassidy possessing Glamrock Freddy instead.
Cool but FNaF 6 is a first person game and during the Completion ending we don’t leave the Pizzeria. Henry didn’t even offer Michael a way out (suspicious, like Michael knew something he shouldn’t… wait a minute. The Insanity ending, why would you be given a certification of insanity so, quote, “No one will believe you,” when you learn that Henry made the Funtime Animatronics, the Scooper, and LEFTE?) so Michael’s dead. It also makes a few things from Security Breach make NO SENSE (if you look at from the right Angel Security Breach actually fits perfectly in the timeline). I still think that Glamrock Freddy is possessed by Michael Afton. Also there’s really no evidence that Michael is still alive
Wait i have theory Kik is in freddy and the real reason he is trying to protect gregory which maybe is crying child(evan afton) from getting discovered from the animatronics so he doesn't die again
Also did you know that remnant can regenerate flesh and organs? I heard of this by a different youtuber hoe was talking about scraptrap from fnaf 6 and how he looked more flesh and bone than robotic and since remnant is a supernatural energy capable of bringing spirit's back he theorized that remnant could also heal and regenerate lost limbs organs and even more! This could explain why scraptrap looked more organic that robotic and also why William Afton thought he could become immortal. Ps. This could also explain your theory that how and why Michael is still alive, he could have gone to his father's old workshop where remnants were stored and used them to regenerate himself after the fire thus making him immortal. What do you think about this?
Could it be possible Micheal built greggory to store and fix his brother who was scattered memories? The letter from him is almost like "I have fixed you and though you arent really realyou, you have your thoughts (memories) back and you can now take on this trial and bear it with me. Reading that quote feels so much like Micheal built him, to me so why would Vanny or glitch trap have him and this makes me even more confused why people think he is 46.... why? Hes not afraid of windows or violent to people in either form from what I see really or a hacker (he plays OLD arcade games.... what in that is hacking?). So I'm a bit lost on that take and it feels like this not shows Micheal made him instead and led him to the plex when maybe he was incapacitated by something and couldn't do the job himself. And did micheal take over freddy as soon as greggory arrived? And that's wy he doesn't see him as part of the vile band to attack?
I like some of the points made here but other ones just seem like leaps in logic. Such as cut content being a sticking point to prove it’s accurate. I think I’ll need more evidence before I believe micheal is truly still kicking as a purple corpse.
question..why people think that michael want find his father to kill him? like where proof that michael want kill his father?(fnaf 3 is really can be accident,fnaf 6 is henry who burn them all+he dont told michael about that,he say only when he start a fire)

That changes absolutely nothing

Have you considered in FNaF Pizzeria Sim after Henry does his speech the thing that congratulations you plays right after? It might’ve been foreshadowing that William’s still alive because we play as Micheal so therefore mike is alive as well?
I'm just saying that there are other ways to make someone (adults you know what I mean) so when mike says that he built gregory he could just mean gregory is his son which is what I think and as for the whole memory wiped thing, I believe that glitchtrap has gotten into his mind so he wouldn't remember killing those counsellors and I know everybody's saying that there is proof that gregory is a robot because of the freddy voice lines but I think that glamrock freddy is mike possessing him but I do still think that he survived the fnaf 6 fire but died later on before security breach possibly to foxy. Anyway, I think that mike/freddy is using the glitchrap virus on gregory for some reason I don't know why yet so when he says that gregory is broken its because he's no longer under the control of glitchrap I know there are a lot of flaws in that theory so feel free to argue with me in the comments about it I would love to see your side of it
Actually, in the Spanish subtitles for Ruin, it says "amiga", which is the female noun for "friend". It obliterates the mystery of who Gregory's friend is but at least it's an answer
Pronouns in other languages have been wrong before, like with patient 46 being referred to as female. So it seems the translators don't know anything and just have to assume.
Is it really? Always thought it was Vanessa who was the friend so glad to know it's possible
The proof is that I’m right here
Impossible
Like father like son “I always come back.”
Yooo
@@Totallyunrad I don’t know if this voice line is canon but I heard one of Springtrap ( or scarp trap ) saying he’s the only one who can pull that off 😂 I would love to see a confrontation in the end of fnaf which is just some kind of stand off between Mike and his father. Like a game with Gregory or something and in the end the newest form of springtrap wants to kill him but then a door behind them opens and there’s Mike with a fleshlight activating a scooper or another furnace or even a door to hell itself to get rid of him. 😂
Michael What are you doing here
This theory is proving my point about the Twisted ones mirror/Parallel. A robot in human guise destroying robots that hunt living people. Literally the plot of the Twisted ones, Glamrock Freddy even substituting for the OG band. After all he gets 4 powers in security breach. He starts with his base one and gets 3 more from each Glamrock Gregory 'decommissions'. Making him a substitute for 4 entities.
i like the theory about mike being alive but hate the one about gregory being a robot
Do one if withered Chica is possessed because in fnaf 3 it’s not her it’s fnaf 1 chica and in order to for them to be in fnaf 3 their spirits come to be alive.
WOW THIS HELPED ME A LOT THANKS TWISTED ANIMATRONIC!!!!!!!
You're welcome
@@TwistedAnimatronic :)
I believe I have a theory of my own that might support Matpat's theory and your's in this video. I do believe that Michael Afton is still around like what you said in this video, he does have his own hidden room after all. I also believe that he has something to do with Glamrock Freddy. Let's be honest here, these Glamrock animatronics are highly advanced animatronics from the
future. What if Michael Afton made his own modifications to Glamrock Freddy before the pizzaplex even opened. I believe that Micheal is using Glamrock Freddy just like what his father did with the fredbear plush/lonely freddy from fnaf4 but as a remote controlled robot. Peepaw Afton used a speaker to speak through the fredbear plush, Michael could easily do the exact same thing with Glamrock Freddy. Using a controller and speaker from wherever he is to control Glamrock Freddy so that he could continue and complete his mission, to take down his father and
the fazbear name for good. NOT EVERYTHING HERE IS POSSESSION PEOPLE, THIS IS THE FUTURE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT!! I like and strongly believe this theory. Like if you agree.
I ALREADY FEEL LIKE MIKE IS A SECURITY GAURD IN FNAF SECURITY BREACH BUT IDK😭
There is just a picture of Scott???
I mean, sure I had a picture of Colonel Sanders in a portrait in my room but...
I dont think charlotte died at fredbears but i do still think fredbears is the fnaf 6 pizzaria as in sister location we can see the road that led to fredbears in sister locations custom night, meaning sister location is somewhat close to fredbears, and if the scooper in ruin is the same then that would still mean fredbears is the fnaf 6 location
So in FNAF 6, some poor mooch who was so desperate for cash to put up with crazed animatronics and a suicidal Henry, they end up getting killed because of an assumption.
Fascinating theory
My therory is that Micheal is glameock freddy and the only reason he doesnt try to kill gregory is that he looks like evan and he wants to apoligize to him but he cant
For a catch phrase you could do "now thats... JUST TWISTED"
3:10 was that a minerena in the popcorn
Congratulations, your the new MatPat
I wish lol
there already is a new matpat
@@heyitsmegoku4 and it is the guy you are watching right now with the Freddy head in the backround
I watched all of your videos in right time I don't know how am I luck
@TwistedAnimatronic do you think there is a link between your theorie and the deactivation of Glamrock Foxy and Glamrock Bonnie ? (Maybe Michael and the Bonnie Bully used them before Gregory ?)
I could picture both being true, Michael surviving and being Glamrock Freddie. If he were caught and put down or if he decided tried to put his own Remnant in a new body because his own was in such bad condition. Or even having transferred another way as we see that bodies and souls can coexist in proximity while not being united with William in the basement and being Glitchtrap.
its so cool how mikes thing is hes to angry to die
I have a FANF Au where there are more animations or at lest one more and I call them or her,glamrock Kitty and she was good friends with Freddy just like Bonnie was but she didn't have the Vanny virus or not yet and at some point Mike may have hacked Kitty and made her more of a good guy or something like that and at some point Kitty brings Freddy down to the underground pizza place and she kills Freddy or at least deactivated him because he had the Vanny virus and Mike fix Freddy and upgraded him and he doesn't have the Vanny virus and Freddy and Kitty don't remember this happening and everything goes back to normal but Kitty gets sent to a different location for some reason and in security breach when Freddy goes under the pizza plex he starts to remember and that why he say "I have been here before,she brought me here" 11:49 .P.S.I made this Au because of two things because how Freddy is the only animatronic that doesn't want to hurt Gregory besides Sunny and the other reasons is that Freddy had a built in so he can make fire with one of his fingers when he is supposed to be around kids and that is not safe yet he has it.
Love your video, man, and keep up the great work you are awesome
Thanks a ton!
@@TwistedAnimatronic No problem
Where are you getting all this awesome non-game footage from?
5:25 theres a pic of the owner of fnaf on the tall stand💀☠️
I need to know what Gregory and allies are up to during and after Ruin.
Brother listnens to good music, providing he knows the and uses the animataion for TryHardNinja's ,,Salvaged Rage" from the Five Nights Music channel
I think Michael possessed glamrock Freddy
I'm not me also Michael never possessed any Animatronic
And glamrock Freddy has blue eyes just like Michael did in sister Location image neighborhood also There is a sister location area with tv and scooper in security breach ruin
Mike did draw seeing himself in a grave in the security logbook though.
I wish Scott would create a book where the whole story is written. It’s just so difficult to know wich theory is right, wich is not and it’s really complicated. I wish there was just one book with everything found out so far wich is Scott approved.
I'm still not convinced about Mike's life status, there is a recreation of his room yes but so every part of the Pizzaplex with Freddy's merchandise and you can only access by taking photos, a memory so this could relate to his not him.
And from what we've seen in Into the pit game, it is no coincidence that we can visit memories (I think this what the book and its game is telling us)
Your theory only works if:
1) Is Gregory NOT a robot, since we established that he is GGY meaning he took orders from Glitchtrap
2) Glamrock Freddy is not possesed by Michael (probably)
Yknow, annoyingly it still could be Vanessa that guides Cassy in the end. Yes, the static is short, but it's not short enough that you couldn't quickly say 'Vanessa's' in it.
I do agree with the fact of Mike still being around and possibly helping though. I wouldn't be surprised if he asked Bonnie Bully to make him a robot suit to help him finish his business... Though that might make him feel too similar to his father.
Maybe Mike doesn't even decompose. After all, the only reason we have for this is the purple skin colour and how he moves. The 'odor' excuse was used all the way back in FNAF 2, so he may not need an endoskeleton to survive.
Ur couch looks like the game theory couch in an alternate universe
What if greg is mike reincarnated and programmed. The code on the wall could litterally be gregories code. Like how the animatronics are controlled with drawings in the movie.The room could have been made for him, to give him a safe space in the plex. Gregory goes into the battery stations with freddy showing he can withstand high voltage.
What is the purple Mike footage from?
The big problem with this theory is that it is reliant on cut content.
Without the cut content we could still have Mike in play via possessing Glamrock Freddy. We know souls can gain more awareness and control over themselves because we saw that with Baby -> Scap Baby. We also have the parallels between the Afton children and the princess quest ending of Security Breach which heavily implies the spirit likely possessing Glamrock Freddy is Michael Afton. Now this would also imply that Elizabeth is somehow connected to Vanessa [which has no lack of options] and that Gregory is connected to the crying child [also no lack of options].
Now, Mike possessing Glamrock Freddy does not mean he did not escape the fire. We know many people have gone missing and it is implied that the staff specifically were killed. Assuming Mike was a staff member then he might have been killed somehow with the others.
The timeline is vague and we do not have concrete dates for the majority of events in the games. For all we know Vanessa could be Elizabeth reborn, Mikes Daughter, Williams Daughter [4th child?] or could be William's only actual child [retcon indie developer]. We don't know anything for sure but all of the interpretations can be argued with the vague evidence we currently have.
Wow, this theory makes so much sense!!!!!!
Michael could have brought back regardless, but they went above and beyond to leave his faith ambiguous that it literally doesn’t matter, Michael coming back fits thematically because he shouldn’t be able to rest until his father is purged in all forms.
In the thumbnail Micheal looking like the colossal titan😂
twisted should do a roblox channel where he plays FNAF games, beats them and finds the lore hidden within
I never believed Gregory is a robot but my favorite FNAF animatronic said so that means I believe the theory now
A bit late here but there's a bare human foot print in the pizza plex (I can't remember in what room) and as far as we know Mike is the only human character was see bare foot
What about the ending where he rises from the ashes and makes promises that he’s gonna rectify things at the end of the fire he literally climbs out of ashes from the burnt building
What if fazbear entertainment (FE) isn't the harvester, and in fact, is *actively investigating* what's going on while cooperating with the police, and instead, it was some bad group who infiltrated FE. There are no real signs to it now, but it could really explain the way the animatronics flip-flop, going from being genuinely good to monsters and back. I mean... why write a *virus* to alter the programming of *your* animatronics when it would've been much easier to put a signed patch to the code, leaving none the wiser?
I also like the idea of a SB-like game (possibly VR compatible?) where you go in and *properly* repair the crew, destroying the virus code, giving them new faces, and using their help to explore the location further and fix more, until they're back at the pristine state they were in at the very beginning of SB and we finally get introduced to *new* evils, who are trying to corrupt FE, or whatever they can, to harvest remnant... Might also be fun if you could play *as* the robots, kinda like some other games where you got like 5 stories/perspectives (or more, if we wanna bring in the fox and the bunny) and really the whole goal is just to... IDK save some people, discover some big dark secret? escape? either way I feel like playing as a "random adult" could be helpful for it
nah this is very i mean VERY Underrated
Thanks :)
I have a feeling that he will always come back like his dad ( i hope )
Oswald might probably not but he could be his friend
whats the animations on pre scooped Michael, I always tried looking for them but can never find them, I know they are very popular but I can never find them
Innoway, I always feel bad for Michael because of all the shit he was through
He killed his brother bruh hes not the good guy
@@evancounts5529technically the bite didn't kill CC, and Michael does show remorse. I wouldn't say he's a good guy or a bad gay, morally gray
He just meant to scare CC, not kill him. I myself am an older sibling, and I may not like my younger brothers but I wouldn’t *kill* them.
Yet isn't Mike the vengeful spirit though? Haven't played the games, but after having seen dual process theory's theory it makes sense. So let's say he couldn't fully move on after tormenting William in Ultimate Custom Night? That would give him the motivation to possess Glamrock Freddy and help a boy that reminds him of his brother Cassidy.
But time will tell if that's the case or if it's Cassidy possessing Glamrock Freddy instead.

Cool but FNaF 6 is a first person game and during the Completion ending we don’t leave the Pizzeria. Henry didn’t even offer Michael a way out (suspicious, like Michael knew something he shouldn’t… wait a minute. The Insanity ending, why would you be given a certification of insanity so, quote, “No one will believe you,” when you learn that Henry made the Funtime Animatronics, the Scooper, and LEFTE?) so Michael’s dead. It also makes a few things from Security Breach make NO SENSE (if you look at from the right Angel Security Breach actually fits perfectly in the timeline). I still think that Glamrock Freddy is possessed by Michael Afton. Also there’s really no evidence that Michael is still alive
Wait i have theory Kik is in freddy and the real reason he is trying to protect gregory which maybe is crying child(evan afton) from getting discovered from the animatronics so he doesn't die again
The only one that even knew about the room are Michael
And ennard
So one of the 2 would have built it and obviously it would have been Michael
Also did you know that remnant can regenerate flesh and organs? I heard of this by a different youtuber hoe was talking about scraptrap from fnaf 6 and how he looked more flesh and bone than robotic and since remnant is a supernatural energy capable of bringing spirit's back he theorized that remnant could also heal and regenerate lost limbs organs and even more! This could explain why scraptrap looked more organic that robotic and also why William Afton thought he could become immortal.
Ps. This could also explain your theory that how and why Michael is still alive, he could have gone to his father's old workshop where remnants were stored and used them to regenerate himself after the fire thus making him immortal. What do you think about this?
Only issue about this this theory is that Gregory in ruin is not actually Gregory but is the mimic
That was the real Gregory though.
Could it be possible Micheal built greggory to store and fix his brother who was scattered memories? The letter from him is almost like "I have fixed you and though you arent really realyou, you have your thoughts (memories) back and you can now take on this trial and bear it with me. Reading that quote feels so much like Micheal built him, to me so why would Vanny or glitch trap have him and this makes me even more confused why people think he is 46.... why? Hes not afraid of windows or violent to people in either form from what I see really or a hacker (he plays OLD arcade games.... what in that is hacking?). So I'm a bit lost on that take and it feels like this not shows Micheal made him instead and led him to the plex when maybe he was incapacitated by something and couldn't do the job himself. And did micheal take over freddy as soon as greggory arrived? And that's wy he doesn't see him as part of the vile band to attack?
Michael Glamrock Freddy say I'm not me
Possessed
Crying child soul is inside Gregory
If the Crying Child’s soul is still around it’s more likely in Fredbear’s Nom Nom Bites
Your so wrong, the real reason Mike is still alive is because the show must go on

Guys mike survived the fire and made an appearance as a burnt corpse in the episode of SpongeBob where he freaks out about chocolate.
Cool why it's underrated
It all makes sense
The pizzaplex is built on top of the sister location that is why the scooper is there and that is also why the sister location masks are in the blob
But the sisters location is under the afton house
@@calen4092 what I think is afton just builds a secret back door to the sister location to experiment on the animatronice
@emmanness that's is possible or its a long corador to the location
Micheal afton is still alive even thow hes a dead corpse because of the reminent that rusted into his skin makeing him purple
I want to see Micheal meet Gregory
Glitch taught have made the words to get remenent to save the crying child
Nice video
I like some of the points made here but other ones just seem like leaps in logic. Such as cut content being a sticking point to prove it’s accurate. I think I’ll need more evidence before I believe micheal is truly still kicking as a purple corpse.
I would say the reason why Mike is still around because he has too much remnant in him
Very accurate city map 10/10
The murders in the pizzaplex were done by Vanny
question..why people think that michael want find his father to kill him? like where proof that michael want kill his father?(fnaf 3 is really can be accident,fnaf 6 is henry who burn them all+he dont told michael about that,he say only when he start a fire)
also how do we even know that a fire would kill micheal afton hes an anomly a body with a soul and remnant he could just be literally immortal lol
i feel like he might not have lived henry says there WAS a way out planned not meaning that the is one
