Under_Score: What's the Crying Child's name? Fandom: Chris Under_Score: *You've yeed your last haw*

I definitely think it’s the crying child because he doesn’t really have any anger that’s holding him back. I personally think his fear held him from being set free, but when he got an actual birthday party he felt he could finally move on. Cassidy on the other hand would stay behind because she couldn’t let go of her anger. (I think at least) Also, this is one of the only FNAF theory videos that I 100% I agree with. Great job!

What if the crying child is old man consequences in UCN telling Cassidy to chill out? Also it’s funny how Michael is kind of a pawn in all of this.

This is bonkers. This is straight up bonkers. This is genuinely the best fnaf theory i have ever seen. I'm going to have to watch it over and over again.

The fact that people actually think that the name Chris for the crying child is canon makes me want to commit self delete Btw very good video mate 👍

What if the reason the vengeful spirit appears male is because Cassidy is projecting the form of the crying child to torment William. Will wouldn’t care about one of his victims but seeing the face of his own son would hurt him

Something that may also hint that both CC and Cassidy possess Golden Freddy is something I recently realized about the bad ending of fnaf 3. All the animatronic heads have only one eye glowing while the most likely Golden Freddy one has two glowing eyes and the lights signify the souls being in the animatronics because of what the good ending does. Maybe two glowing eyes mean two souls?

That Cassidy sprite is adorable!

“I expect the name ‘Chris’ not to be in the comments” C’mon guys, you had ONE job.

Finally!!! Someone who doesn’t like people calling the crying child Chris!!! Chris is a fan name. It was never confirmed. That means that that’s not CC’s name.

It’s kinda scary how much this theory solves...I hope it’s true lol

I do believe that you are true but some people just don’t want to listen to others. I’ll just call him crying child until we get a name because it seems more fitting

Second but also what if crying child and cassidy had a fight/argument and that why shadow freddy exist

Just some answers for the questions at the end / my opinion: 1. I think the happiest day is for C.C. There’s the reversed map of the Bite Of 83 format, and also I don’t think Cassidy passed just yet, since she’s busy torturing William. I think Cassidy finally passes in the OMC Easter egg / something like that. It would just fit for the happiest day to be for the Bite Victim, since it was in fact his birthday. Also, since Cassidy is vengeful, I don’t think she’d be that sad. 2. I kinda think Bite Victim’s name could be Jake / Jacob (since I guess jake can be a nickname for Jacob??) because of how well he parallels to Jake in the stitchwraith teasers, but that’s not strong evidence- just a guess.

Everyone: it's far fetched for gf to have two souls but- Me: *points at ennard who has FOUR*

Golden freddy is simply just freddy but peed on

I think that instead of CC being a casual enemy, he instead passed on in Happiest Day, so it still makes sense that he has the party, since the whole minigame is a parallel of his own birthday.

Honestly this is a great video. Its so concrete and ominous and has debunked about 3 theories. Words cannot describe how great this video i love it so much. Keep up the great work This is the best FNaF theory video I've ever seen So worth the wait

"...is wearing an alligator mask." *Montgomery Gator vibes*

1. Happiest day is for bv, the layout of the pizzeria mirrors fredbear's family diner plus all the kids were the mask of the bullys from that incident and bv having happiest day explains why from the timeline from fnaf 3 and on we never see shadow freddy again 2. Bvs name is either norman or a name we have not yet discovered

I believe the Crying Child is the one who gets his Birthday Celebrated. And Cassidy is the one staying around just so she torment William. And the Happiest Day mini game Party Room is Fredbear's. Just it's backwards.

16:20 YES! I thought it would make sense that the CC is SF! (And that he’s also GF.)

Wow, just... wow. I loved your theory and I agree with *EVERYTHING* that you said. Finally, we can live happily knowing who GF is, who SF is, what FNaF 4 was, and knowing the ENTIRETY of FNaF World. Your contribution to the community with this one video is IMMENSE and is the best (or only) definitive theory for GF. Thank you so much for making this. This is easily the BEST theory video on FNaF I've ever seen.

This blew my mind in so many ways. Not only because it was something I had never thought of, but most importantly, because it's also something that makes so much sense! Great theory, keep up the good stuff. I really want this theory to get more attention and end up being confirmed lol.

Finally we have found peace and prosperity to our fnaf community lol

This is amazing dude. You explain everything so well and not too fast, and your points are super agreeable

also, i’ve literally never heard people calling BV chris, lmao. i’ve heard people call him jeremy, though.

Thank you for featuring my artwork. Very Epic. Also good to help you out.

This was really cool definitely worth the wait in my opinion

I think the crying child got the happiest birthday cause Cassidy is still here in ucn. That means that she hasn’t moved on and that she’s still here

😱 Woah!! You're the first to make that connection with "Old Man Consequences" being an alligator. And now that you mention it, it does really look like he's an alligator. He's even near water lol. Plus it would make sense for the the "Vengeful Spirit" to be "Old Man Consequences", considering he's the one who is tormenting William. So basically William is facing his consequences/judgment... Good job bro! 😊🤙🏾

Great theory bro! 😃 Been waiting on a new theory video from you for a while 🤙🏾

I think I'm convinced that: Evan Afton=Shadow Freddy Cassidy=Golden Freddy Gabriel=Freddy Fazbear Michael Afton=who we play as in Fnaf 4

This is a legendary video, and it's obvious that you have put a LOT of effort in this video, and I 100% agree with you! Heck, this is even better than some MatPat videos! Well done!

23:48 1-Im not sure in the survival logbook theres a picture of a girl with black straight hair and the puppet giving her a big cake that look like the cake in the happiest day mini game but I also have feeling that its also the crying child 2- I don't think that his name is Andrew or Jake and there is no way that his name is chris...no JUST NO but in my own au I call him Norman I now it place holder but its actually the closest name for him in my opinion :) Edit: sorry for my bad English because its not my first language :)

I looked back at the logbook, and I have a major question. Why is there so much blood? Can Michael bleed after he gets scooped? He's basically completely hollow, and kept alive but remnant, but that means he probably doesn't have veins or a heart. So who got blood in this log book? Something I noticed, is that their seems to be a LOT more blood on the Fredbear page, which connects back to The Crying Child. I don't think that that's Micheal's own blood. It has to be someone else's.

"My final conclusions" 30 videos later: "my final conclusions"

I'm not really good at commenting theories, your theory is very interesting. Other than that i can say that your voice is really calming ^v^ Wish you luck ^w^

The crying child’s name being Jake makes the most sense at least for now because of the stitchewrath story and the crying child Jake connection

This sounds like a very interesting theory, and it makes a lot of sense, even tho I still think TOYSNHK is C.C 😅

Dude, I know I'm late to this video, but wow... It's so nice to see someone try and explain the old canon of games instead of the books (you USED the books to explain the games) or the new games. I remember getting so invested with the old games, and this is just fueling nostalgia for me

To me what I believe the crying child is Golden Freddy after his death on November 15 of 1983 he became the strongest of all animatronics Golden Freddy. The nightmares he has are caused by his Fredbear plush and all of his plushies, they may be the one who endangers him but they are the ones responsible for giving him the box that contains the Golden Freddy head. Months before his birthday the Security Puppet is the one who gave C.C the Fredbear plush that can secretly transform into both Nightmare Fredbear and Nightmare. On June 26, 1985 William Afton killed Cassidy but is either brought back to life by the Security Puppet or the Marionette as Xor. Finally on March 2, 2015 the crying child gets his happiest day by both of his friends and former enemies as they can all rest in peace. While in Ultimate Custom Nights this does not take place in hell but in a laboratory as for Cassidy she let's go of her hatred towards William Afton for what he did her, her friends, and her family but let's it all go after taking advice from Old Man Consequences.

Great video! I agree with most of your points brought up, and the points that I disagree with are nevertheless well explained. Keep doing good!

I agree with this 100%. It is genuinely the most ingenious fnaf theory I've ever heard. Also I personally think the happiest day is for the crying child because Cassidy is still restless and torturing William in UCN and also the happiest day is the birthday the crying child never got. This is such an awesome video!

Wow you pretty much answer my questions I had today in the Discord server, the nightmare animatronics could be both real and dreams

For the Crying Child's name, I'll just call him Joseph, since that was Squimpus' crying child

This is the best theory ever made. And i agree with everything in the video. Good job man!

Could it be possible OMC is actually Crying Child? I mean, it sort of makes sense, when you think about it; Jake (Who’s the stand-in for CC in the books) tries to help Andrew fix his mistakes, and stops him from hurting more people. We also see that the spirit in ‘The Man in Room 1280’ also has an alligator mask. Alligator mask? Bit of a weird detail. I mean, OMC is an alligator/crocodile, could be a plausible connection showing that OMC could be one collective soul inside of GF; Crying Child. He does seem to just happen to be there and Cassidy is able to just talk to it without trouble. Idk just a thought, OMC could work for both Charlotte and CC. :)

I remember subscribing to you when your were at 500 something subscribers, I love to see you grow man. Am I an OG now? Lol.

Just found this channel, I like your theories a lot and probably even more than MatPat's theories, hoping to see more from you, as for the final 2 questions, 1. Crying Child, mostly for personal preference but also because he's (as you said) taking a backseat to a lot of what Cassidy does, implying that his soul is (for the most part) at rest and thus doesn't want to cause any direct harm to anyone. 2. I dunno lol I just call him James cause every other name people choose is really fucking stupid.

I hate the name "Chris" for Crying child because it proves how many in the fnaf fandom can't differenciate bewteen cannon and fannon, or from cannon and speculation, there is people who believe matpat's theorys are 100% correct, there is people who doesn't understand that one thing is what an artist creates for their AUs and comics, and a really different one is what is stated in the cannon

Please make a theory on *Stitchwraith Epilogue 5* because that story was pretty weird. Why was Jake watering flowers? How’d Jake feel the atmosphere of where his dad was? Who was the “third spirit” that was mentioned in Epilogue 4? Etc.

I still think Cassidy is a guy. "The one you should not have killed" is reffered to as "him". I guess you could say that the "him" is reffering to golden freddy specifically, and not the spirits inside him, but thats a bit of a stretch imo. Also, I think you dont play as cc in the fnaf 4 "night segments". I still think the fnaf 4 gameplay is dream that Michael is having while hes working at the fnaf 1 location, mainly because the gameplay structure in the night segments in fnaf 4 are similar to fnaf 1 (Bonnie on the left, Chica on the right, check on foxy) And because you can hear the fnaf 1 phone calls in fnaf 4. I think CC is somehow altering michaels dreams to attempt communicate with him since we do see GF try to communicate with mike in fnaf 1 (The its me hallucinations) This "dream altering" may also be the same method cassidy uses to tourture William. (And the same method andrew uses in the man in room 1280)

Your theory also explains the 'Was it me?' teasers we got, with the nightmare animatronics each asking if it was them. Well, if it's part of the torment then it would be accurate as the whole group together ended Crying Child's life and it would be a good form of torment as the brother was the leader and should have done something, yet they didn't. Really good theory :)

Cassidy being nightmare fredbear also makes light on when you speed up nightmare fredbears laugh you hear a girlish laugh just like fnaf 1

I agree with everything! Great job!

Ok so I think Crying Child gets his happyst day and I think I found a name in the Word search that could be Crying Childs name the name I found was Rob so maybe that's his name? Idk.

Honestly, i think the reason Shadow Freddy exists is Cassidy allowing C.C. to practice his own projection skills but since it's only FNAF2 he's only just beggining and why he's only an easter egg while Cassidy is the main bear. That or Charlie(Charolette) is letting them both practice since she's there too but C.C. can't stray too far from Cassidy (and probably still can't stray from her but the distance is possibly longer now)so he can't practice for as long as she can. Still good video. Edit: was second away from finishing when i initally wrote this comment so i was caught off guard by that jumpscare! Well played, but screw you, my heart almost stopped! Still good vid none the less. Keep it up.

Thank you i was thinking about this for a long time after rewatching a game theory proving why crying child wouldn't react to the nightmares so i thought about and finally thought what about Michael and ive been stuck on it since

Q2: Well, I am reading the fourth closet at the moment and I know this will be a very loose tie, but what if the crying child could be Sammy and I get he is related to Emily family, but this is in the books and we know that the books and games are in a different universe like Scott said. This is a theory btw.

Watching this video was actually worth it

Wow! I have never unsterstood something so much, and yet have been torally confused at the same time. Regarding your questions: 1. 90% sure it's the crying child because the party was for him and it only makes sense for Charolette (Puppet) to make up for it. 2. If what you said about the Man in the Room story is true (haven't read it or watched Dawko's recap), then would it be such a stretch to say that the crying child's name is Jake? I know that may seem weird but think about it: We have gotten so many name and lore drops from the books, even including William Afton. If we can get at least one name from the books, why not another? Besides I don't know if Scott would ever go back to answer that question so would now (The Man in the Room book) be the best time to sneak that lore in?

Personally I think the Crying Child or Evan (as I like to call him) is both Golden and Shadow Freddy since he's essentially hiding in Cassidy's Shadow and I also think the Gameplay section in FNAF 4 is Evan giving his Nightmares to Micheal while Mike was working at the FNAF 1 location and I think the reason why Cassidy also is mad at Mike is because she was probably a close friend of Evan when he was still alive and she would always call out Mike bullying his Brother which would to lead to her getting bullied by Mike too and to me The Happiest Day is probably for both Evan and Cassidy since Evan died at his Birthday and Cassidy was most likely murdered on her Birthday.

I really thought there was a possibility that Golden Freddy might have two souls last year

I do think Andrew is canon to the games, remember, in FNAF 3's Happiest Day, there's a kid with an alligator mask.

I think I found the second Matpat. It is awesome. You deserve more than 6000 subs.

Loved this dude!

The crying child is Evan Afton William Aftons son

This is great, there's just one thing that I've been trying to get people to pay attention to for a awhile now -- *The girl with the pigtails in the FNAF 4 mini game is Baby.* I know you've seen me say this before.. But the similarities are too *SPOT ON* to ignore: same dress, color, pigtails, green eyes etc. Mainly the *TEXT COLOR!* It's basically the same as when someone tells the crying child at the end "I will put you back together." Baby would be the one more knowledgeable to do that. The books keep telling us that Baby can appear as human, I feel she was doing that in FNAF 4. People have been claiming Baby is not around during Fnaf 4, but on Help Wanted you see the mini game with Baby in the FNAF 4 room. So why would she be there? Just my opinion, but I feel alot of people keep overlooking this theory and that's probably why there's still many questions that hasn't been aswered.. *We might should solve this...* Overall, good job bro! 🤙🏾

I have a theory that Cassidy and Crying Child are actually in 2 seperate Golden Freddy suits, but are able to communicate with each other because the identical suits came from the same location: Fredbear's Family Diner, then they were moved together to the original Freddy Fazbear's Pizza location, where they would've spent quality time together. I believe Crying Child possesses Withered Golden Freddy because of how the jaw looks incredibly similar to the Fredbear that killed him, and Cassidy possesses the fnaf1 Golden Freddy because of the girlish laughter and how she is always represented with that model. This can be backed up in UCN when you try to use the Coin on Withered Golden Freddy and get jumpscared by fnaf1 Golden Freddy's model while Withered Golden Freddy is still in the room.

For your first question I think the Happiest day mini game is for Cassidy because Shadow Freddy is in FNaF 3 but Golden Freddy is not. For your second question I think it might be Norman because in VR’s game files their is that says “Norman’s Bedroom” but that is the only evidence that we have. And one idea I had which is most likely not true but it is fun to guess. In the new Fazbear Fright book “Bunny Call” it is hinted at their is a third kid in the Stitchwraith so I think it is Endo 0-2 since most people think that is Golden Freddy’s endoskeleton and Withered Golden Freddy has no endoskeleton. But I have no evidence beside the theory that Endo 0-2 is Golden Freddy’s Endoskeleton so it is probably wrong.

I don’t like Chris as a crying child name. Why can’t we get an official answer?

Great theory!

I'm pretty sure you got it. Nightmare Freadbear and Nightmare are direct parallels to Freadbear and Shadow Freddy. The fact that Mike's younger brother is called "nightmare" makes a lot of sense. Cassidy would be angry at Mike for making this happen at all. It also explains the strange nature of the loud beeps heard when nightmare jumpscares you. It's the crying child dying. And that point about the sister location animatronic being in the fnaf 4 house because its above the location is brilliant. Something that still interests me though is that in the books, its Henry's house that's above sister location. Since plushtraps place is detached, perhaps one is the Afton household and the other is Henry's.

I disagree with a lot of things in this video like WilliamPlush and your theories about FNaF World, but the video was entertaining and well-edited.

I agree with a lot of this video, but some points go a bit wild for my taste without too much evidence to back them as well as my complete disagreement with your take on FNaF 4 (well somewhat) I'd love to have a chat about this, maybe on a stream or video or something!

Im not one to give criticism, but it kinda sounds like you aren't too interested because of your voice. You really put a lot of work into your videos and i will be looking forward to more

That's really cool makes sense to me the phone call in fnaf 4 always bugged me like why would it be heard if supposed to be before fnaf 1 as we always assumed it was a kids nightmares but your theory makes a lot of sense I've even gone the silent hill route what if crying child created it all through his death and memories somehow created a nightmare world in all fnaf games for Michael as it's strange how all the toys and that crying child sees appear in all the games for Michael such as mangle toy chica n that apparently crying child has been known as Evan someone used the logbook to do a code

I like this, and I know you put alot of effort into making CC seem like Golden Freddy, But he really isn't, listen to the phone guy's lines and speed up nightmares jumpscare.

Chris, more like Christopher Robinson

Imagine Watching Underscores am I right boys, Underscore please heart and pin this I beg of you

Is that Cyanide at the end? I see you are a Popgoes fan of culture as well!

17:29 I think it's before because the sprites of Freddy and the gang seem to be the FNaF 2 design (I guess they repaired the suits) and the fact that Springtrap was sealed in the safe room even though there would be no point to doing that if the location was closed

I personally think crying child got his happiest day in FNaF 3

23:48 The Crying Child.

From 2015 or 2016 to 2018 Treecicle proposed the idea of Cassidy possessing Golden Freddy's endoskeleton (being the child stuffed inside the animatronic), and Crying Child possessing Golden Freddy's suit (only having his upper skull and windpipe damaged by the animatronic [note the positioning of Fredbear's teeth]). I've always loved the two souls in one animatronic theory, even though it's over half a decade old at this point.

Based on how Fazbear Fright goes, at least we have some suspicious of some potential names for crying child : 1. Jake from Stitchwraith because he's stand-in for CC 2. Charles (Chuck) from Step Closer because he's also a stand-in for Mike & CC relationship. 3. Toby (maybe Tobias?) from Upcoming Blackbird book because his story giving me vibe of Afton Family.

I ask myself if we will ever refer to CC (Crying Child) as Norman (Fnaf 4 files, the CC bedroom is referred as Norman’s.Bedroom)

Can you guys help me? How do i make my own animatronics OS?

Cassidy and The Crying Child could’ve been equally enjoying their happy time, all but for different targets.Although, both do get their vengeance.

Awesome theory video

Yea but what about nightmare endo? He's the end of nightmare so nightmare would have to be a physical entity right? (But it could just be that nightmare is both a real entity when william took CC down there to punish him he just took the form of that)

I think Shadow Freddy and Golden Freddy are the same entity. Just a projection, like you said. One thing I disagree on is Cassidy being the vengeful spirit. I’ve always thought they, but the animatronics say “HE” referring to the vengeful spirit. So I think BOTH Cassidy and Crying child are vengeful spirits. I think Crying child originally THOUGHT WILLIAM was MICHAEL. So he kept him alive in the Springlock failure and then Both Golden Freddy spirits worked together to create UCN, But then realized he was torturing the wrong person. So he tries to stop UCN and he finally succeeds. His success in stopping UCN was the scene in The Man In Room 1280 when William explodes. I think this is also when William touches circuit boards to connect himself to them, and he’s able to because of Andrew’s supernatural energy, the same energy which The Stitchwraith goes out to fix. I don’t think the nightmares are endos. I think they are crying child’s plushies. Because I’m Curse Of Dreadbear they’re in the room, and in FNaF 4, beating foxy shows a Foxy Plushie, and the Freddles come out of the Freddy Plushie. I think Crying Child is the kid in Happiest day. Because its mirroring the bite of 83. BUT I don’t think that even released his soul. Looking at the balloons that rise up in the air to symbolize the spirits being freed, Golden Freddy’s clearly stutters and never full gets freed. Crying child’s name, I have no idea. Some people were saying Rob. But idk.

This theory explains alot and is really well made. However one thing i find really hard to understand is the part about the fnaf 4 nights being both real experiences from the crying childs pov and it also being a nightmare vision givin by golden freddy to michael afton. Dont get me wrong i get it and it does make sense and i mean its basicly what cassidy is doing to william afton in ucn but.. i dont know it sounds soo overly complex.. So basicly the fnaf 4 nights are both real and nightmares at the same time.. there is alot of evidence supporting it but it sounds soo overly complicated. Like it fits so well but it also sounds a bit too out there like it sounds like it cant be the real intention.

Great theory, but I personally believe that Shadow Freddy is the Crying Child's Agony manifesting into a separate being, explaining why Golden Freddy and Shadow Freddy are so similar in a different way.

A Popgoes Cyan-ide jumpscare i was not expecting

We've been trying to figure out his name since Fnaf 4,but here's what I think 1.Norman(vr game files) 2.Chuck(He has a older brother that bullies him) 3.Jake(The connection to the stitchwrath with golden Freddy) That's all I got

The "laughing" in the end could also pe crying or maybe both.

I woulda just like to say that I’m pretty sure I was the FIRST person to ever discover the “I can’t see” line from the logbook connecting to Andrew not seeing anything
