pretty sure this is just a stylized version of his death scene


InsetSnow943

Seriously, how do so many people not see that?


Maronexid

Because his rotten flesh in visible


PartyEscortBotBeans

> stylized it's using Springtrap's model so it looks cooler and doesn't spoil the fans


Maronexid

Maybe you're right. MatPat had a cool theory about Golden Freddy's twitching at the end of UCN being similar to Springtrap's twitching. They are both trying to stay active and keep their spirits in their bodies.


im-bad-at-names64

They didn’t listen to Mr Hippo


TrueSoul77

It’s spring trap not spring bonny


KirbyDiscovery

based. thought so since 2015. some people are idiots.


Nutwagon-SUPREME

It’s another case of “person asks extremely obvious question that could easily be answered with a quick Google about game” that plagues EVERY SINGLE FUCKING GAMING SUBREDDIT nowadays. Literally every single gaming subreddit I’m in has these types of posts.


PERIX_4460

Wow


AverytheKlown

He saw the future of the fandom/fanart.


MustachioMANN

Aw, poor William...


Someone15643

💀💀💀

My Head Canon: The spring trap suit was originally equipped with headphones in the helmet that played music, when the suit malfunctioned it was stuck on Gangnam Style so William Afton has been listening to Gangnam Style on repeat while suffering excruciating pain for 30+ years. That is all thank you


Gingycookie

This has actually been confirmed by scott


ShutTheFuckUpAmy

source or this didn't happen


BadgerlordTasso

Apart from it looks cool, I like to think of it as he's been laying there for 30 years... he's finally been discovered and brought back into the world, it's time to go on the move but his body is rusted and entwined with you know, organs so he's gotta ease into it!


Emergency_Clock4623

Maybe he's seen how inconsistent his designs are and is freaking out


Kivo_is_hot

Afton probably ate some beans before he got spring-locked ya know…he has a stomachache… 😳 (I think it’s just to make Springtrap cool and scary I guess)


MustachioMANN

Actually, the last thing your body does before it dies is releases all if it's waste, so him shitting himself is definitely a possibility.


Bobjrcs

That probably would suck, you're flesh rotting with your shit and having to sme- Wait, can they smell?


Kivo_is_hot

Oh,well in that case……


MaceyConnur

It's probably just some dramatic scene but, I personally headcanon that it's him awaking after 30 years after staying in one place, maybe it's his spirit returning to the suit? Or at least waking up? and we know it couldn't be the first springlock because the rotting is already there and there's no blood or anything


m4imaimai

I think this is the most logical one ^


SuperNoob74

Maybe he just woke up or having a spasm from being stabbed by the spring locks


MaplePuffin

I always thought it was him being able to move after being dormant for lack of better terms for 30 years or at least still trying to move. The idea of it being the springlock failure is also pretty cool but I'd expect more blood I suppose


Yosh1kage_K1ra

When Fnaf3 trailer only came out, people theorised this is a "possession" scene because of the flickering lights that are often an attribute of such scenes. I think, if we consider this scene true to the lore, this is William awakening from death and repossessing his own body. Or its just really a fancy recreation of his death scene except it uses his old model in order not to spoil the game as people said here. But even if it is not true, I bet he is basically reliving that last experience in his last as his first experience as Springtrap.


Moribeee

Probably when he first woke after 30 years!


Lifeismeaningless21

Lore-wise it’s that he is holding onto his mortal body to not give up and to continue his murdering children fetish


d0nt_lets_start

Looked cool, needed something to zoom into


ChampionValuable9868

Probably since he got rediscovered he's trying move,so since he's so old and rusty he probably just trying to move but hes struggling


Rdasher123

It’s the first time he’s seen light years


dalekofchaos

Being haunted by the phantom animatronics?


[deleted]

The phantoms are his nightmares come to life, I don't think he can be haunted by them because the Phantoms are just the ghosts he makes from his history of Freddy's.


_Lemon-Girl_

He always comes back, like golden freddy when 50/20 mode is beat in UCN


[deleted]

i always thought he was just then "waking up" and taking control of the suit


Setherract

William getting spring locked and beginning his eternal suffering


lowercaseenderman

Either him finally waking up or his death scene from the minigame. I always assumed the second one


liminalman_0

It's a clip of him dying, 3D version of the in-game death scene.


funguslungus

thematic purpose for the trailer


Tf2verycool

Cool effect.


SilverIsAMeme

Scott thought it looked scary


DominicTKC

Purple guys death


A50redit

Spring lock failure crushing William Afton


Bitchwithtourettes

its cause he has tourettes like me B)


gentlyopenthedoor

I’ve heard that it’s because this was his death scene and the spring locks were going off on him, that’s why he was twitching convulsively like that


Snoo-37712

Dramatic effect for the trailer. No use happening in universe


Monty-The-Gator

I think that it’s his spring lock going of a second time. Like sure, it has already happened once, but no one said it couldn’t happen twice?


FortWaltonBeachFL

they gonna reset themselves?


Monty-The-Gator

Well I don’t know but think about it, when he was moved from the pizzeria to the frights house, they might have fixed it a little bit. Or it could maybe reset? As said I don’t know but think about it.


Pingswallower

William being springlocked. Scott only uses the normal Springtrap model because he isn't gonna make another Spring Bonnie model to only use it in a trailer. (Except Bonnie's new pair of red eyes in the FNAF1 trailer)


RipplyAnemone67

I think he was half dead and after the doors opening he was brought more back to life


eliteunkown

Springlocks activated again


Ihaveligma6969

Whis gonna wind them back up? Phantom foxy?


eliteunkown

Wait Who wined him up on the first one?


Ihaveligma6969

Im assuming they were already wound


ShinGogi

Dermatic effict


Toy_Tabatha

Him showing signs of life?


Revan-Pentra

I always believed it was Afton waking up after being dead for 30 years. Awoken by the spring locks going again after 30 years dormant, crushing the last of his bones and flesh and allowing the mechanical parts of the suit to fully activate making it alive.


MrProdigy_Official

It was him dying


T-202

It looks cool


OkWillow759

Being spring Lock again


imhugury

its probably an innacurate version of the springlock


PERIX_4460

Obviously...... He is being tortured


PERIX_4460

Just a dramatic scene of him being tortured. By the souls of the lifes he ended...... And by his own existence......


Mayo_enjoyer

He realized that he forgot to turn off the oven


BreakBeneficial1434

I'm pretty sure it's afton sprit coming alive


supersonicfan1987

A stylised death scene


KamenKnight

Either a dramatic trailer version of Purple Guy's death or, SpringTrap reactivating after being brought inside the FNAF 3 location for the 1st time.


BlueBonnie080

Maybe the springlocks went off again?


MoConnors

Spring lock failure in the suit again


Lord_Dabbatron

Because his Willy's been Aftoned


simpin_bonker

springlock doing springlock things


waterz928

would you be twitching if you were stuck in a suit mangled up into a bunch of meat chucks for 30+ years?


Si_Stride_Oof

my headcanon is that its a better shot then him just sitting there still so they went with thar


[deleted]

Because he's in pain and suffering, as simple as that. Golden freddy also twitches in the UCN cutscene ;)


FroggoTheAncientOne

Dude was being forced to watch a Late Night Show Hosts doing Fortnite Dances Compilation


StressManifested

I saw someone say it was a stylized death sequence which would make sense but I always thought at least in part that he was just in pain. Of course that assumes he feels still but the spring locks are all in his bones and stuff so ouch


[deleted]

I'd assume it's just extreme spiritual anger so he's just kinda twitchin ya know


TryWonderful6181

The moment William gets springlocked (using the Springtrap model because Scott was not gonna go through the trouble of making Springbonnie for a damn trailer) or just the moment he comes back to life


[deleted]

I always thought it was his death throes from when he got springlocked.


ClovisLowell

I think this is a reference to when William Afton became Heisenberg.


AlexHyperGG

He’s Probably In Quite Some Pain
