William Afton Character Analysis - The Spirit of Cain (Shadow Scrying)
2Description
William Afton, the man behind the slaughter. The main antagonist behind almost every dark deception within Five Nights at Freddy's. From his early appearances as the Purple Guy in FNAF 2, to his grotesque resurrection as Springtrap, and as the cunning corporate figurehead of Fazbear Entertainment, Afton has taken on many forms—but all serve one purpose: control, power, and satisfying his own twisted sense of pleasure.
But beneath the jump scares and lore, is there a deeper theme to his character? A cautionary tale from his decade-long performance of embodying envy, pride, and arrogance—a worldview poisoned by the belief that one is entitled to power, legacy, and dominion. The Spirit of Cain—destroying what he cannot possess, and damning all who stand in his way.
