Why are the FNAF animatronics so HUGE? like sheesh... that’s just intimidating to draw alongside small child characters... they’re just huge and daunting....
And then I remember SL and how they were designed to kill children and it’s just like oh... that’s why.
This is all to interpretation and this is just mine... so YMMV, and ultimately it’s for debate but I’m happy with this so. Hey, that’s something I guess.

Big Questions
Exact number of children killed? Possibly eighteen dead children altogether…
-Five at the original location(likely the GO GO GO Foxy minigame)
-Charlotte Emily(Fazbear’s Diner)
-Afton’s Daughter/Elizabeth Afton
-Crying Child/Michael Emily
-Five Children at the FNAF2 Location
-Is the Newspaper’s report a different incident again?
How is the Management this horrible?
Do either of the canon Phone Guys have names aside Phone Guy and Phone Dude? Question, is Sammy Emily from the books the OG Phone guy based on Foxy being his favourite?
When exactly did Mangle replace Foxy? Since FNAF2 is a Reopening that means Mangle was around in the previous iteration of the location as well… Does that mean that the Diner is even older than my initial predictions?
Is Henry the true villain considering he’s the one who actually made the animatrionics while William was the bookkeeper? And if so what’s actually going on here? Ugh, this series is ridiculous… Also, I still hate William for him because I was used to Vincent being his name(who knows where it came from but it was everywhere once…). Which yeah… it’s more like a bit of backlash…
Scott has made himself canon in the series
Who is Tape Girl?
Henry in the books has two Children
William Has one
This works if you think of how the family is presented in the minigame. Two kids. Two boys, because Charlie died. And if she were recreated but Michael wasn’t in the books. And William has one child… a daughter. Elizabeth.
It makes sense.
But YMMV
A lot is still up for interpretation and debate. But this is my timeline for now. So whoop!
