Intriguing you mention a good Bendy, when the most recent teaser sentence mentions a "Benevolent Demon".

Well, it was a solid wall, and I believe it was simply made of ink hence the splatter near the hole in the wall after we get backhanded through it, but I concede your point.

Well, considering Sammy recognising Henry despite the fact the two never met, I like to think the characters learned Henry's identity through seeing him again and again. However, Sammy saying "I'M GOING TO CUT THAT SMILE RIGHT OFF YOUR FACE!" would imply we are some type of Bendy. Considering how Sammy acts like we've done something to him, the offerings along with the trail of ink outside Storage 9 and the fact someone used a Bendy costume, an ink creature pretended to be Henry and murdered Sammy. This someone, as we can tell from the costume they used, had a perfect left arm, yet needed to conceal their right one.

Only one entity in the studio would need to do that.

Ink Bendy.

An oddly ironic twist, if Ink Bendy is Joey, or at least part of him.

My issue with the tapes is that we don't know which tapes were recorded in the ink world or not. Stuff like Grant's transformation, definitely. However, there's also this one tape with Joey that suggest he saw Ink Bendy, and ordered Tom to lock him away. If Ink Bendy was soulless, how does he have Joey's memories?

Wait, two Bendys, wasn't there only one in that photo?

I agree that cake is suspicious AF, but so's the placement of the tape. In fact, all the tapes are suspicious. Some just don't seem right. Why is Wally's tape in which he mentions losing his keys right outside Sammy's office?

My answer? Unknown(the ink creature messing with the tapes in the Unknown, April 14th teaser) has been placing them so that we only follow a set path.

However, my agreement with you only goes so far.

Fredbear came before Freddy Fazbear. When Henry sold Fredbear's to Henry, Afton killed Charlotte in order to hurt Henry, which Henry describes as "a wound first inflicted upon me, which I let bleed out to cause all of this."

Afton's hatred of Fazbear Entertainment and Henry is pretty much evident in almost everything he does: The creation of Spring Bonnie; a more advanced version of Bonnie that served as both a costume for humans and robots. Upgrading Fredbear from a simple AI to a springlock suit; showing off again he can make better robots. Circus Baby's Pizza World and Circus Baby's Entertainment & Rentals; I can make more money than you, and I can build better robots than you ever could The murder of children so that they haunt the once innocent mascots; He's showing he can achieve so much more than they ever could. Laughing before his own death; he knows the children can do nothing to stop him or be set free, and that he'll become more than Henry ever could.

Jealousy and Pride are literally the two main driving forces in everything William Afton did. This desire to show he is the better man, and that he can achieve way more than Henry; It caused ALL of this, and once it had started, it wouldn't stop. Mad science played a part, but the real motive was to prove that he was better in every possible way. Murder, science, engineering, spiritual knowledge, all of it.

Afton wished for immortality, yes, but he also needed test subjects before trying this on himself. That's why he killed so many people. Once he had all this knowledge, he became Springtrap. It cost him his family, but Afton simply didn't care. So what if he killed all his children? So what if his wife left him? So what if every single person he had any connection with died, aside from his former friend? Afton's quest for superiority was all that mattered, and he no longer felt empathy for those he had once loved.

The worst part? Stuff like this happens. Someone gets an inferiority complex, and feels they have to prove they're right. You want a moral for FNaF? Treat everyone equally, because doing otherwise can have grave consequences. Afton ruined the lives of dozens of people, family after family, tragedy after tragedy. The devastation he caused was so great, it would always be remembered, the agony and pain of his misdeeds represented in the forms of Shadow Freddy and RWQFSFASXC, the suits he used to kill all those children.

And what is his punishment for his unforgiveable crimes?

Being forced to relive every single thing he did, and face off against the monsters he made for all eternity.

THAT'S YOUR STORY.
