18:25 The novels have William claim that when you get Springlocked, your lungs get punctured and you drown in your own blood. That may be relevant - Cassidy was Springlocked in Fredbear, and drowned inside of it.

[LionPKrono]

A good explination is how Cassidy could have died springlocked in Golden Freddy by William, drowning in her blood

[bscurity]

I really think Cassidy drowned in their own blood after being stuffed. It isn't shown that the Cassidy was stuffed by the puppet in the mini-game, besides appearing briefly. So, I think William stuffed them in the Fredbear suit, causing the suit to go off and pierce Cassidy's body, probably their lungs or something connected to it for the drowning stuff.

Cassidy would then be really mad at William for that, and that also explains how they drowned. I think the OMC lakes and other (possibly also OMC) red lakes are connected to the drowning motif and is telling us it was in them drowning in their own blood.

Kinda funny that the most overlooked "whatever" fnaf game still has monumental lore bits

[Oli]

I really like Sire Squawks's interpretation of Cassidy being springlocked in the Fredbear suit by William. And I believe in the Silver Eyes it says that springlock victims drown in their own blood. Maybe that is where Cassidy drowned?

[edifiedermine]

In the silver eyes when William is explaining what happens during a springlock failure, he specifically mentions your lungs filling with your own blood until you *drown* in it. Maybe that’s why the lake is red in fnaf world and ruin, and that’s how Cassidy “drowned”. It might have been a springlock failure. She was put into the suit, and died from the springlocks.

Boy, that description of the Fall Fest fire safety hazards eerily reminds me of the real tragedy that happened at the Haunted Castle attraction in New Jersey. (TW Death)
.
Haunted Castle was a late 70s attraction at Six Flags Great Adventure that was originally meant to be temporary (like Fall Fest), but due to popularity was never taken down. However, it was also never really brought up to code for a permanent attraction, escaping code inspectors' attention because of these origins. It consisted of multiple trailers decorated with highly flammable materials like foam rubber, fabrics, and plywood. And because this was the days before cell phone flashlights, teens going through the dark attraction would use lighters while walking through the halls. While it had SOME fire safety features, they did not install sprinklers, and all other precautions were either vandalized and not replaced or were rendered unusable in other ways that went unnoticed. So on May 11, 1984 (one year after 1983), one of the foam pads caught fire from one of these lighters and quickly spread. 14 escaped, but 8 teens were trapped inside and burned to death, while 7 others sustained injuries.

Just sort of reminds you that the horrors of Freddy's might be laughably unsafe, but there are real tragedies out there caused by negligence, making Freddy's just a little more believable.

[trulyunknowable]

One thing that has stood out to me recently is how similar the names Cassie and Cassidy are. I know theres the whole meme about MatPat and "Gregory is a robot rebuilt version of the Crying Child" but that draws a connection between the two spirits in Golden Freddy's suit and the two children inside the Pizzaplex

[loganentertainment]

Another thing to point out is that the photo booth in FNAF AR, where you can take pictures of your FNAF AR skins, there are filters that you can add.

The very last one has a red curtain with a wooden sign that reads, “Come one come all, the Fazbear circus”. I even have proof of it in the community section of my channel to prove it.

[theforgottenscribe]

While a lot of people have pointed out that Cassidy's drowning could've been via drowning through internal bleeding (a dry drowning, I think it's called, bc there isn't any water involved technically), I wanna elaborate on it.

Because I think there's a lot to suggest that Cassidy wasn't killed prior to being stuffed, but rather killed via being stuffed. There's that one Fazbear Frights story about kids being lured to a fazbear suit and pulled inside of it. There's the fact Cassidy is so vengeful, implying a lot of agony was experienced by them. Especially if you consider that Cassidy was killed last: first they're lured into a room full of dead kids in suits and then they're stuffed (or alternatively, like Afton later, attempted to escape his reach by hiding in the Golden suit only for the spring locks to be activated).

There's the fact that Golden Freddy is limp and listless in FNAF 1, in a pose reminiscent of the sprinlocked William without the twitching. Cassidy may not have died right away, given the fact there's the candy cadet story about a key to saving one life. Near fatal injuries are survivable, even if the chances are extremely slim in most cases.

There's also the notion that the drowning iconography could be purely symbolic. It's possible that for Cassidy, their afterlife feels like they're constantly drowning. They're, after all, stuck. Tethered. Held beneath the surface that is release. In fact, I think that might be very likely.

'Leave the demon to his demons, rest your own soul.' To escape Old Man Consequences, you have to drown. I think drowning might be symbolic of Cassidy chosing to chase their murderer again and again, refusing to let go or rest.

And I don't think these ideas need be mutually exclusive to one another. I think they can run concurrently.

[mylam]

I think this theory may be likely.

Cassidy's corpse (assuming it's their's) not appearing until the end of the FNAF 2 "Give Gifts, Give Life" minigame, always felt like to me implied that maybe they weren't killed in the saferoom. And it isn't exactly uncharacteristic of William to go after a child outside the pizzaria, as now seen in the movie. So perhaps Cassidy was kidnapped and drowned in a lake by William.

But the major counter evidence for that idea is the news clippings in FNAF 1 that talk about FIVE kids getting lured in and killed. Unless you want the fifth kid in that situation to be Andrew (which is an idea I don't really like myself tbh). It would also beg the question of how they ended up as Golden Freddy, if they weren't killed in a Freddy's.

[theretrodragonyope]

My thoughts: The Puppet, Cassie and Baby are much more alive because their deaths and suit "injection" are a lot closer in happening.

In the give life events the children already look like ghost/skeletons.

However, the Puppet was right after she died and Baby was right as she died. So that leaves the vengeful spirit Cassie to most likely have actually died in the suit.

Hi Forsaken AR dev here and I just wanted to leave some comments on the video!
while there is no official way to play FNaF AR now, ForsakenBonnie (the creator of Forsaken AR) has archived Versions 1.0.0 and 8.0. These versions act basically as the original game with no extra content (unlike Forsaken AR which does add new content). Some things are changed such as the shop and removed microtransaction, but that's so you can collect everything those versions have to offer.

Headcanon, I'm not sure how yet, but the Sonic Adventure 2 Gameplay + soundtrack in the background is somehow a RyeToast ARG where we find out he's the voice of Shadow The Hedgehog in the new movie.

[Dj-btyp]

I really like the idea that Cassidy was drowned, it’s a really bad and painful way to die, you feel ur lungs fill up with water before losing ur breath
That could explain why she’s so vengeful, it was such a horrible horrible death to go through (not to say all weren’t horrible) but she was tortured

[NotUlpoadingAnything]

As a lot of other people in the comments have pointed out, Cassidy probably drowned in her own blood from the spring lock failure. On pg. 269 of The Silver Eyes, William explains to Carlton, "Your vocal cords will be severed, and your lungs will fill up with your own blood until you drown in it."

[doltishiowa]

One thing that can be some supporting evidence that the sister location characters may have been around in Fall Fest is the sister location 8bit mini game. The reason I bring up the mini game is the fact that in the mini game baby is giving cupcake to kids outside. Unlike every other mini game, the sister location one is the only one that shows it’s outside (I know that FNAF 4 shows the crying child outside, but that’s beside the point). The mini game is supposed to show how Elizabeth died before the opening of circus baby’s pizza world, but why would baby be outside, unless it was done in some sort of outside event. I know this theory isn’t perfect because it may contradict the gas leak that happened at circus baby’s, but this is just some food for thought when thinking how far back the stuff from sister location could have been in the timeline.

[BonusDuckie]

I don't know about you Rye but a whole circus full of still moving on fire animatronics and fursuits running around on flames sounds like a pretty traumatic experience to me

[NeonliteMC]

I have a theory: the reason the lake is red as opposed to, well, normal lake colours is because it could symbolize that William Drowned cassidy in their own Blood by springlocking them into golden Freddy while they were still alive. My two main reasons why I say this is because in chapter 9 of the silver eyes novel, Dave aka William Afton literally sais: "You'll try to scream but you'll be unable to: your vocal cords will be severed and your lungs will fill with your own blood until you drown in it" when describing what springlocking feels like. This also works out very nicely because without the ability to vocalize, nobody would be able to hear Cassidy's torment throughout the rest of the building.

It also makes me think that similar to william in the fnaf 3 minigame, a Springlocked Cassidy would reatain conciousness for some time, perhaps even long enough to witness William remove the golden bonnie disguised he lured the missing children into the back room with, and thus becaome directly vengful to him, solidifying Cassidy's / Golden Freddy's role as the leader of the souls dring the games.

but hey, That's just my Theory
