Phone Guy was an absolute star back in the early days of FNAF but after the third game, he was literally never mentioned again. Aside from being in Ultimate Custom Night... at the very bottom of the list. Who is this person and does his significance carry throughout the series or is he a FNAF relic to simply be forgotten?

Honestly, I accept this as canon. I think the idea of phone guy being a fairly insignificant character in the grand scheme of things who's just as in over his head as we are adds to his charm, in a way.
Yeah I agree too. It kind of saddens me how the series has become more complex without really expanding. It seems like no one can just be someone insignificant, everyone has to be related to this one random guy or something yknow.
That’s how the first 3 games kinda set him up. Not to be a big part of the story but rather a mirror of your own experience being the night guard. A character that you can relate to if you will. He was in the same position as you, and knew little about the animatronics as you did. Of course he did seem to be *somewhat* higher up in the company, but he really was in the same shoes as us the player. That’s why he’s one of my favorite characters :)
Basically what he was from the beginning. A guy in the exact same position as you who unfortunately didn't make it out alive
Agreed
Phone Guy is the creator of Map Bot.
I feel bad for phone guy he didn’t deserve to die he was just helping us, and what’s even sadder is that he tells us to check the suits because he knew he was gonna get put in one
Which is why he said he would hang on until someone did because he wanted to at least be found
Oh. I took it as him starting to suspect that the bodies were hidden in there, to check the suits for dead kids because he mentioned once that he couldn't bring himself to look inside. He had an idea about them.
@@pollyc.1957 I thought this too.
@@pollyc.1957 i think its both
He was however lying about the animatronics, he did help us but he was not telling the truth of why the animatronics do what they do, the company does know what happened but they try to hide it to stay open
I always thought the "phone" in purple guy's hand was actually just his hand
BRO SAME
me too bro omfg

The line "don't make this harder then this has to be" sounds more personal. I always thought green guy as Henry, making it seem as if he has already had to tell him he isn't allowed there
Adding on a stretch of a piece of evidence, but Charlotte's wristband in the Security Puppet game is green, and I'm pretty sure Henry was the one to make that animatronic. Maybe Scott wanted us to connect that or smth? (Again, it's definitely a stretch lmao)
It could be, but it could also be like 'c'mon man, like I don't wanna be a dick but I have to follow orders. you're not allowed here, don't make a scene, just go."
I doubt henry would ever be able to speak to afton that way after what afton did, even in fnaf 6 when speaking about afton he gets notably angry.
@@samhunt9361 FNAF 6 is after he finds out about his ddaugghter he didn't knoww it at this time as itt was the same night
@@samhunt9361 As far as I can remember the main theory is that midnight motorist takes place literally after the murder of Henry's daughter so if that theory is correct it would make sense that Henry didn't know yet what happened to his daughter and that is why he speaks with Afton calmly
It is kinda weird that phone guy wasn't given a more important role. He was clearly a loyal employee of the company, having worked at Fredbears Family Diner and at the fnaf 1 and 2 locations. Meaning he worked for the company for at least 10 years. Plus, he was voiced by Scott himself. You'd think he'd have more importance but, he doesn't. If it was up to me I'd give him his own book series, or at least make him an important character in one. We could explore what Fredbears and Freddy's were like during the day and see how big of an impact Williams killing/kidnapping sprees had on the company. Maybe even explore what his time was like as a night guard at Freddy's.
Yes and even the fact that he tried to help *us* you know with giving us informations
I don’t know, I think to a degree that after he gets got he’s got. I think most of the fan base is tired of action coming back(especially for security breach). Sometimes it’s time to write somebody out
@@funwithcoding2818 They should have done it with the character that died twice in the franchise then,lol
I feel the reason that he was voiced by Scott is because fnaf one had such little funding and they wanted to stick with it through out games
@@supremeburito6406 yup
I'm glad Foxy didn't kill the phone guy. Personally i think that would've been really sad to be killed by your favourite animatronic.

Its cool to see someone discuss phone guy again. I recently watched all of matpats theories and realized that pretty much everyone had forgotten about phone guy and his death. Hes also the only xharacter who doesnt haunt the series in some way. Except for the night 5 phonecall but we cant be sure what that was.

@@orang9134 That first audio from the William video was entirely fanmade, and the other voicelines were a british man in contrast to the blank voice of Phone Guy.
my theory is that he was just a loyal employee, tbh. refer to the different years in the games he's in and the fnaf 3 phone guy tapes
I thought phone guy died in fnaf 2
@@sophie7437 he died on the 4th night of fnaf 1, actually
@@sophie7437 phone guy is indeed dead, but in fanf 3 the new phone dude in the game collected tapes of the phone guy from fnaf 1 and 2 explaining how the springlock suits work. Basically you only hear the phone guy’s voice from tapes that were from long ago before phone guy was killed.
Honestly I think he was likely a family member like and uncle or cousin maybe a younger brother to William that admired him and William was my good to him ifk
i like to think his physique is logically the same as Scott Cawthon since he was voiced by him, so it's not really a problem for me if we will never see what he looked like in the games. for the ones who don't know , Cawthon is a corpulent guy with no beard, and short brown hair.
If it was Henry, then he would have to be dead after fnaf 1, but as seen in fnaf 6 which takes place after fnaf 1, it’s settled as Henry built the pizzeria in fnaf 6 to lure the animatronics and release their soul.
the thing about FNAF 6 is that there are multiple if not MANY, MANY locations during that time period. in FNAF 6, you play as Michael, presumably, but the main importance of your protagonist is being a franchise owner. The reason you are able to customize your pizzeria in FFPS from a story perspective is that your location is one singular franchise of presumably many, considering there are training videos that play at the beginning of the game. The canonical location that burns down has Michael and Henry in it (according to Henry himself in the tape), but it's safe to assume there are many other ongoing locations at the time.
mike built the pizzeria actually.
@@kuanai oh, i thought he owned it instead of build. Sorry bout that
@@Argezi im not even sure myself cuz ive seen tons of people think that henry built it that im starting to think it myself. No hate on you, just pointing it out! ^-^
@@kuanai neither of them specifically "built" it. Henry was the original CEO of Fredbear's before it got sold "to another company," but it's fair to assume that Henry is still the CEO of Fazbear Entertainment. Mike is just the franchise owner, which isn't really important for the story, considering Henry had put all the pieces in place to attract all the animatronics
Something to note about Phone Guy is when he dies the animatronics are pretty much cheating with how aggressive they are now it might be a way to calm you down but he says "its been a bad night here for me" What has he been dealing with every night, how good is he at surviving fnaf 1.

Phone guy was playing 2000/2000/2000/2000/20000000
Phone Guy was so very on the radar that even Golden Freddy went active unprompted. They had him locked up in his office, too, and refused to leave despite the doors being closed. It was worse than 4/20, it was something like 5/50, and perhaps if Phone Guy somehow lingered on, even The Endo or the Puppet would start becoming antagonistic. Thank god we only spend a week.
One thing I would want is for a book to further explain how phone guy got involved with Freddy's, like explaining how much of a nice guy he is who is willing to put himself at risk if it means saving somebody else. Just to make it really hit hard when you realize that this guy, this dude who is possibly the nicest guy in the fnaf universe was killed due to him unknowingly getting involved with Freddy's and meeting his demise. I'm not saying this is canon but this is a my pov of how to characterize phone guy to an even more complex character other than just the dude who helps you get through the night. I'm taking his minor role in the games and fleshing it out.
Unknowingly? Hebdefinitely knew, and was ones of the very few ppl who did
He would let us die before making the Fazbear Entreteniment suffer a process, be sure
he would have known considering he told us to check the suits on night 4 before he dies

Given the dialogue, it would make more sense for green guy to be Henry, but he could be phone guy.
@@mememan1546 not possible
Henry tells William to leave because Henry suspect that William was the killer of the first five children at Fredbears. and doesn't want William to kill more
@@Penaldo7Pessi10 William was in custody. They wouldn't allow him to come into a kids place as a suspected child murderer.
If he is Henry, then henry wouldnt be in Fnaf 6
Here's one simple theory that no one seems to talk about. I believe that Phone Guy's real name is Fritz Smith, the guard we play as in Night 7 of FNAF 2. And there's a simple evidence for this. Phone Guy in Night 6 tells us (Jeremy) that the company will move us to the day shift, and then says that he'll take over the night shift for the following night. And in Night 7, we play as a different character, as proven by the "you're fired" note, that says Fritz Smith, instead of Jeremy Fitzgerald.
You’re forgetting one thing. In Fnaf 2 the phone calls aren’t for Jeremy. They are pre recorded before the killing at the Fnaf 2 location. The phone calls are to the night guard during the summer before the place closes as evidence by phone guy welcoming you to your “new Summer job” in the first phone call. The events of Fnaf two take place in Autumn after the place reopens via the paychecks. Phone guy does say that he will be the guard when the place reopens which most people assume is him at the Fnaf 1 location but actually the events of Fnaf 2 are the reopening he was referring to which would mean that phone guy is Jeremy and whoever was the night guard during summer when the day guard (aka purple guy) killed the kids at the Fnaf 2 location would be the day guard during the events of Fnaf 2. Also this would mean that Jeremy wasn’t the bit victim which there wasn’t any evidence of anyway people just assume that to be the case. Also Fritz is fired so how could he be phone guy if phone guy is in Fnaf 2?
Also more evidence for the events of Fnaf 2 being the reopening are the newspaper which literally says “grand reopening” and the banners saying birthday which phone guy states is the last event scheduled before the place closed.
@@Da_Rillionaire Nobody has thought about this. What if all the phone calls were recorded at different points? The phone calls in the earlier nights were recorded in the summer for all subsequent workers, and the phone calls for the later nights were recorded for Jeremy specifically?
this is probably the most accurate piece of evidence for a fnaf theory lol
@@Da_Rillionaire And besides, Fritz Smith gets fired for tampering with the Animatronics. So why would the Phone Guy do this? Is he Michael Afton?
Gotta love more phone guy videos. This insignificant minor character has always been my favorite so seeing more of the man makes me happy.
Same! Maybe it's just cuz he was the very first friendly entity in the franchise, but I've always felt kinda attached to the character. On one hand I think it's fair he just stays some poor, normal guy who worked at Freddy's too long and got caught in the crossfire, but on the other hand it's sad to see him relatively forgotten as the franchise has grown.
I have had an unhealthy attachment to him since 2014 and DSaF is how I cope
He's been my favorite too!
I think the green guy is henry due to him turning afton away from the fnaf 2 location which was set up to keep him away
Yep it’s confirmed where in Jrs the person who turned them away was henry
@@diegomonsalve7514 and who confirmed that?
@@raylewis60 diego confirmed it is that not enough
There's a theory that in midnight Motorist afton was driving back from killing henry's daughter which would make it pretty weird for afton to Try to enter another location
@@raylewis60 Joe did.
Honestly it makes sense, phone guy did mention having to deal with former employees. And this would have taken place in the FNAF 2 location which was open before the FNAF 1 location. Phone Guy didn't die until he started working as the security guard in the FNAF 1 location. I don't see why this one guy couldn't have been phone guy.
the fnaf fandom is just so creative with creating names for unknown characters. “purple guy” “phone guy” “green guy”
If green guy isn't Henry (which I think he is), I'd say him and phone guy aren't necessarily the same person, but they're both just nameless workers at the pizzeria. Though of course the fact that they're both seemingly security guards could mean they're the same.

IDK why but I call him Bill Afton.

@@anon.9303 I think it was the original books, then the name is mentioned in SL
I honestly really like how phone guy, in the grand scheme, isn’t a major player or really that significant. He’s just like Jeremy or Fritz from FNAF 2, a guy who worked for Fazbear Entertainment who got caught up with the huge plot and suffered for it I mean, not every character needs to be super plot relevant to the overarching plot, and that’s how I think of phone guy I do wish we got at least one more game with him though, I kinda miss the phone guy stuff in general in FNAF, just getting some call to help explain what to do, I like that a lot about FNAF 1-3

Man, 2014... Do you know what this means? In another 2 or 3 years, FNAF will be old enough to be considered a "retro game".
Nah, imo retro games have to be at least over 15 years old to be considered retro. FNaF is nostalgic, but not old enough to be considered retro.
That's an interesting theory. Food for thought though. I don't think Phone Guy being Purple Guy was wrong. Back in the day, it seemed very possible. The thing is, I highly doubt Scott Cawthon had all of this lore planned out from the beginning. It's very likely that he changed his mind on a few things and decided to add lore where there was none. Seems like everything post FNAF 3 is an entirely separate lore tbh
phone guy's death is way different than the purple guy's death so how are they the same person?
1:01 ive always kinda thought it was his hand. now i have literally no idea.
maybe he’s just a normal employee ...
Imagine how perfect the ending of an F6 would’ve been if it was revealed at Henry was phone guy I’ve just been thinking about that for a long time the first voice you hear any of these games being the last one you hear
I always (and still do) thought the thing purple guys sprite was holding was just his hand
I do think that we also see phone guy in fnaf 4 during one of the mini games you can see someone using the Fred bear spring lock suit on the right, And very few people were trusted using the suits with one of them being phone guy

@@atanaZion Why would the company tell him about the protocols, if he was never intended to use the suits?

1:15 I always just thought it _was_ his hand, given its size relative to the rest of the sprite.
Very late to this but a very interesting fact that supports this is that if you invert the colours of the two sprites in the midnight motorist minigame, the yellow-orange one is purple (ofcourse), and the green one is a pink shade very similar to that of the phone guy sprite we see smiling at foxy. Could be a bit of a stretch but who knows
I thought the green guy was Henry Emily which is the reason why William killed his daughter.
I remember when we thought purple guy was phone guy and pink guy was the murder
I kinda miss this random dude. Yeah I know he probably has no actual lore importance since fnaf 4 but it was charming and nice to hear phone guy :) Maybe if we do get that fredbear’s prequel game he can finally return one last time
See, I think that the green guy is meant to be Henry if he has enough authority to turn William away. But obviously Henry can’t be phone guy because he has a very obviously different voice in the fnaf 6 ending
The greem guy could be from a random emplyer to an acquaitance to William, he just said he couldn't be in, don't sounds much authoritary.
i’m not exactly sure but I think green guy is Henry. I believe this is supposed to take place after The bite of 83 and the case of the missing children. Henry suspects that it is William and wants to have a nice restaurant. William is mad Henry told him you have to leave so he kills his daughter charlotte, or for short charlie. Charlie’s soul is in the puppet now because henry made the puppet to protect charlie but william outsmarted it. Charlie, now as a puppet goes back to the pizzeria and gives the dead children life as an animatronic
Man, I still remember back in 2014 when Phone guy was one of the most important characters, given he constantly appeared in the first three games
Phone guy’s my favorite. I never mute his calls because I like the company of his voice while I’m shitting myself checking cameras.
The green guy is henry, but it would make sense that phone guy could of been henry, except henry must have been alive to be featured in fnaf 6
2 Henry's
Henry is green guy because he knows about what William afton did and he doesn't what the bad rep for his other location he realizes that he has to continue on solo without William afton
it brings back so many memories of just him saying “hello?”
He is: scott cawthon😎
I am fully convinced that Jeremy is the phone guy. In Fnaf 2 the phone calls aren’t for Jeremy. They are pre recorded before the killing at the Fnaf 2 location. The phone calls are to the night guard during the summer before the place closes as evidence by phone guy welcoming you to your “new Summer job” in the first phone call. The events of Fnaf two take place in Autumn after the place reopens via the paychecks. Also the phone guy says that the last event scheduled is a birthday and you see birthday decorations all over the place in the Fnaf 2 location.

Jeremy is the soul that possesses bonnie.
The phone guy was the character we used to know the most about and to this day we only know him as “phone guy”
Phone guy has always been my favorite character and its nice to see someone talk about him again
An old theory that I really like was one that claimed that phone guy was the Ceo of the company and Purple Guy's boss who ordered him to do everything he did
4:08 My one issue is that William wasn't a former employee? Atleast not really. He helped build the company with Henry and was high up with them well into his serial killing Days, as he made the Fun time Animatronics. And as the scene called 'Later that night' implies it was with Williams first murder with Charlie
My theory is that fnaf 2 took place before fnaf 1 like we already know.i think that the day shift was already taken so jeremy was told to go to the old location due to it still not being closed down.Since phone guy knew you he kept on giving you messages on tapes. on night 4 he died but he told jeremy to go to the new location where phone guy worked to check the suits. but idk it just seams like it to me
Gotta love how the ending is “did Scott intend this? No, but it works” and I entirely agree
i always thought that william's 'object in his hand' was just his hand. why would it be the same color as the rest of his body?
I had the same Theory in my Head :D
My theory was that Jr’s was a restaurant that Henry had made after the murders but just like the fnaf 2 animatronics they would have a criminal system or overall a protocol against William because he knows that he killed his daughter. I think it’s completely valid that the green guy is phone guy because in fnaf 1 - 3 (I forgot) he mentions himself or someone getting turning down at the door of the restaurant. This also was good theory tho 👍.
its more likely that the green guy is henry, in the way he is telling william to leave feels like he knows him personally and the only guy who is confirmed to know william in person is henry (next to some business people, as we can see in fnaf 5)
I always hate it when people say phone guy could be the killer or helping the killer. I think he didn’t explain everything because if he’d said anymore than he did William Afton would’ve killed him.
Honestly it does suck that Phone guy was left by the wayside simply because he dies in FNAF 1, a game where Scott had no original intention of making into what it is now. So the character j got screwed bc if the unpredictable success the series got I do hope he gets some love in newer games and books cuz his lines of “Uhh Hello! Hello hello! Uhh I wanted to record a message for you, to help you get settled in on your first night…” have been ingrained into my brain
Imagine opining animatronic suits and finding a bloody phone
finally more content to satisfy my growing obsession with the phone guy ❤️
I feel like each phone guy in the fnaf games are different people. i dont think scott cawthon was planning to make him a long running significant character or anything just more of a guide. phone guys personality and demeanor kinda changes every game, in fnaf 1 hes very chill and is just tryna help you out, in fnaf 2 he is a bit more serious but some of his previous personality still shines through, and then fnaf 3 where hes more eccentric and is trying to get you hyped up for your job . I think thats scott trying to make it so you can differentiate between them otherwise idk why he would constantly change the way he delivers lines in each game.
FNAF 3 phone guy ain’t actually phone his “phone dude”
For me, I always just saw Phone guy as Scott himself but yeah that is my own choice of course
I remember the biggest theory was Phone Guy was the one saying "It's Me".
Many speculate green guy is Henry as after this enraged William goes back and kills his daughter Charlotte for Henry to feel the same pain as him of losing a child but also to back this up is Charlottes death is outside jrs as it is raining and the puppet is inside
i think william killing charlotte out of rage would throw the timeline off because the game file for midnight moderist is "later that night". but i do agree with henry being green guy :)
my life has been shattered. I have always thought that one sprite of purple guy just had a weird hand
Wait isn’t green guy like the dad of the kid who posses the puppet, Charlotte Emily? Whatever, he was the one that helped make it all.
yeah Henry
I think that the green guy is actually Henry Emily.
I came up with a theory that doesn’t make sense if Phone Guy did indeed die in FNaF 1 but if he did survive I want to imagine Phone Guy is the in-universe rouge game developer that sought to ruin the image of the company that he almost died under through his experience in the different establishments and incidents he was aware of. It’s all likely just Scott using himself for a lack of other actors but the fact that he used himself in a photo of FNaF: Help Wanted to represent the rouge developer feels like it could be some connection to Scott as a self-insert of sorts. Just a fun thought to give Phone Guy more relevance.
Green guy is Henry, The Co founder of Fredbears diner (other owner being william) he’s the one talking about burning the place to the ground at the end of fnaf 6. He also wasn’t let in because Henry was aware of what william was doing
So this theory, along with the Dream theory, made it into the movie. Love to see Scott caring about his fanbase to the point where he adds past theories about the game into the movie to differentiate it from the games and books.
The green guy is Henry. There was this one video and I can’t remember who it was by and yes it was a THEORY video but it made so much sense. It’s like 1 hr and 20 minutes long and it’s a 2021-2022 FNAF timeline. Go watch it.
On Night 6 of FNAF 2, Phone Guy states ,"I'll probably take the night shift myself" on Night 7, when you finish the night, who's name do you see? Fritz Smith. We know Fritz cannot be Michael Afton as he was disguising himself as Jeremey and switched to dayshift. I believe Fritz Smith is the name of the Phone Guy.
I don't wanna be "toxic" but that's factually wrong, Fritz gets fired on night 7 so if Fritz was the Phone Guy, then he wouldn't be working at the FNaF 1 location
Dude i love fnaf lore, like no other game to know fnaf lore people must discover more and more its pretty fun
How you don't have a f*cking Million subscribers you are soo good in your teories my Man
MY theory: Phone guy is micheal. Micheal loves foxy. He wears his foxy hat everyday. And phone guy knew the incident. So he was there. Who said there was a newspaper about the bite of 83? And phone guy ALSO LOVES foxy. He brings it up every time
Makes no sense michael would call himself
@@creativenamesmth so by that logic michael is autistic LMFAO
I think phone guy was a manager at the pizzeria and was was trapped inside the place somewhere in fnaf 1. In fnaf 2 he was alive and was not trapped but knew something was off about the animatronics and was trying to help your survive. In fnaf 1 at the other pizzeria he was trapped inside and prerecorded messages for you to survive. On night 4 he was killed and tells you specifically to check the Freddy suits because he knew he was going to get stuffed in them
We can all agree that phone guy was gonna be purple guy for the first three games but then Scott threw in like 50 books trying to get a story ready for the fnaf movie. By the way Rest in RIP fnaf movie lol
No I don’t think so to be honest I don’t think Scott Cawthon was originally was going to make phone guy the purple guy
that actually doesn't make any sense because phone guy died by chica or bonnie but the purple guy died in a springbonnie suit which means they're a completely different people.
I like this I originally thought that phone guy was at the 1st location and then moved to the second location. Phone guy was definitely told not to let William in by any means. This theory works more when you think about it.
Phone guy's identity feels super odd to me because he's in fnaf 4 (or at least the fnaf 1 night 1 phone call is). It seems like Scott just forgot about him. I like to think he's just an ordinary guy. I think Scott didn't realise how big the games would get, so killed PG off at the end of fnaf 1, only for him to be brought back in fnaf 2 (prequel) but now he's gone for good.
Could Jrs be Jeremy's? In my mind,Jeremy is possibly an older remade version of crying child, hired as a security guard and welcomed to the family on his paycheck. If he died on night 1, why is there a check? I think he was rebuilt again with another set of memories and made into a franchisee,and beta tester. When he died by Glitchtrap's influence spilling black goo, Vannessa took his place as all 3 of these things: Afton successor/body to swap into when returning, beta tester, franchisee (Fnaf 6's restaurant) and security guard for one of the locations. After he was bitten a second time (in my theory), his conscience would migrate to Gregory somehow,and retain his knowledge as a security guard surviving a night vs these animatronics as well as his knowledge of the missing children incident. Again a child, he would have to sneak into the pizzerias and try to hack the system he himself was overun by when his dad brainwashed him via Fnaf VR beta testing. This determination to stop the disappearances almost makes me want to say Jeremy and Michael are almos one and the same...both robotic versions of his offspring seeking to right Aftons wrongs once and for all. If not twins, could they temporarily even be the same person? Why would the survival logbook ask Michael if he remembers his name? Was is different before? And the 'carousel ride' and purple telephone mentioned as favorite toys? Could crying child have become both Michael and/or Jeremy in diferent moments of the timeline? After all,when baby sees Michael he doesn't recognise him.wouldnt she,if he was her brother? What if he looks different? What if he was now looking like a Jeremy, with a new skin suit? If not an amatronic,how could he have survived the scooping? Why did Baby know he would survive? Because he already had, and several times. He may call himself mike, but indeed, is that even his real name? It's only on checks (like Jeremy's) and the screen in the very sister location. If there WAS a Mike,hence his name on the sticker there, could the one entering sister location 'be Jeremy' now, unable to remember his name, or viceversa? Curious how the screen in sister location doesn't let us type our name...is is not Michael? I believe not, Michael became Jeremy by that point.
This aged well, because the Phone Guy is confirmed as the Purple Guy on the FNAF Movie.
Fnaf movie isn't canon.
I literally thought that object in the purple guys hands WERE his hands 💀
for me the phone guy in FNAF 1 and 2 is the purple guy, and in the fourth night in FNAF 1 when the phone guy dies, that is the spinglock failure scene, so in the franchise he appears even if offscreen but at least not only in the minigame in FNAF 3
I’ve actually had a theory that the phone guy is games version of John from the book trilogy for a while
you know what would be a cool trailer for a new game. you hear a heartbeat pulsating. the eyes open. you see an old man getting out of bed. the tension rises. he picks up the phone as the trailer ends.
I wish in perhaps some other prequel material such as Fredbears novel/ movie flashbacks we see how phone guy got so involved. You don’t have an average joe summer job worker who’s scraping by perhaps mid studies being that loyal to bounce around 3 different locations for that many years. I had a theory that phone guy was an early employee that Henry took a liking to as a hard worker. Maybe Henry confided in phone guy about his suspicions about William being connected to the murders of his daughter and the 5 kids. That may be why he sticks around even after years pass, he feels duty bound by the horrors few people know the truth about, which explains his reluctance to elaborate on hauntings and murders he is well aware of.
Green guy was the co founder along with William, Henry Emily. The reason that he said that William couldn’t be here is because the jrs place was the predecessor to the fnaf 1 building, being the fnaf 2 building. Henry suspects William to be the killer of the 5 missing children at the old location, and in order to not ruin the franchise any longer, Henry cuts ties with William. It’s confusing considering that fnaf 2 is a prequel to fnaf 1, but the original fnaf 1 building wasn’t where fnaf 1 took place. When you finish fnaf 2, the newspaper says that the old models that were in fnaf 2 are going into repair, and that fazbear entertainment is going to build a new location with a cheaper budget and less animatronics. That was the fnaf 1 building.
I feel like the cut scene from fnaf 2, since if you brighten up the freddy mask it’s purple is phone guy, there’s zero evidence but what if that’s what the animatronics shoved phone guy in and why he doesn’t attack you in the game as well.
Huh? What are you talking about?
I had a stroke reading this
I like to think he’s a clueless guy just trying to climb up the wrong ladder lol
I believe that is Henry Emily. This was the fnaf 2 location from 1987. the first location was closed because of the missing children's incident. since William was the major suspect Henry made this location and made sure William never made it into the location. Also, the game in fnaf 1 takes place in another location opened later in 1993 with the original animatronics. so phone guy dying at the end of fnaf 1 would still make sense
i thought the green guy was just the man that used to be Williams old friend Henry Emily basically telling William to piss off, the dialogue exchange seems way too aggressively personal for it to be just phone guy telling William to leave. He would've spoken more professional if he was an employee & not the boss telling a former partner to leave..
The dialogue does not sound like something henry would say. Henry seems to be extremely serious after his daughters death, although its hard to tell if his daughter was dead by this point, but if she wasnt he has no reason to be aggressive to his friend.
@@EmeraldCrowz You do know that William killed those original five children first before killing Henry's daughter right?.. That's Henry was soo pissed at him because he knew exactly what he did.
@@josephbugeja3208 I don't think i'd say "Don't make this harder then this has to be" or "Come on" to someone I knew to be a mass child murderer. If I said anything to someone like that, i'd at most say "Get the hell away from here before I call the police"
@@EmeraldCrowz Just watch this FNAF History video & everything will make sense.. kzhead.info/sun/acqqh5d_kHOaZZs/bejne.html
@@EmeraldCrowz that does make a lot of sense
cool theory, I never even considered the idea of Green man
Good theories I would scream out if this MattPat theory
I think this is correct because in a mini game in FNaF 3 purple guy puts on a yellow suit and dies so maybe that is the same suit he put on in the car mini game but in FNaF 3 the suit might of malfunctioned or broke down.
This didn't age well, after the fnaf movie now we know that phone guy was indeed afton aka purple guy.
Green guy is Henry for telling William to leave by henry knows that it was him who killed the kids
If I can remember, that green guy is actually Henry, Henry used to be a very good friend of William Afton, William and Henry were the two guys who made freddy fazbears pizzaria, Henry found out that William was bad, and he made his own pizzaria on his own
I think green guy is phone guy cause he is just a loyal employee and implying he is just another line in a bigger story. Scott making his voice for phone guy I think kinda hints at this too. Yes I know He created FNAF but he almost just plays a role in the story of it all because of that reason. It’s like a self shout out. Or he just voiced phone guy as himself because he didn’t have any other voice actors in his first game lol idk. I don’t think we will ever really know an answer. But that’s what makes FNAF so interesting even after all these years
