The **Crying Child**, also known as **Kevin Afton**, is a minor character in Final Nights 2: Sins of the Father and the main character of Final Nights 3: Nightmares Awaken.

## Appearance

Before death, he was a little Caucasian boy with brunet hair, black and gray shirt, blue shorts, and brown shoes.

## History

Around the time of Fredbear and Friends, William gets 2 new kids, Kevin and Karen.

However the show flopped, terrifying kids with poorly designed creepy characters. And the pizzeria started doing poorly, it started going as far as terrifying their own son, Kevin.

William was blind to all this, but Martha would not have any of it, insisting that if he didn't scale down his grandiose ideas to something that would work and profit them, she'd shut it all down and move out with the kids.

This sent William into a fit of rage, and he killed her and buried her body in the backyard. He starts going insane, getting a lust for blood and a taste for murder. He also starts using the old suits to lure and kill children in his pizzeria.

While also becoming completely obsessed with building an empire out of his business, he wants to build a giant underground facility with advanced animatronics, made specifically for capturing children alive. However, to avoid legal issues, he hides the entire location by building a smaller location on top "Chica's Party World", with a hidden elevator near the arcades to access the "Circus Baby's Pizza World" laying beneath.

Around this time, Martha's spirit awakened, finding no body to live in, she took control of Kevin's only friend, his beloved Fredbear plushy.

One day, William accidentally leaves the doors to the CBPW elevator open, and Karen wanders in. She emerges in the dimly lit hallway of a closed pizzeria, and approaches Baby, who activates at her presence. She holds out her hand to greet the girl, only to lose control and grab her, stuffing her inside her metal chamber.

The next day, William is getting ready to scoop out whatever child Baby caught that day, only to see that struggling inside, is his own daughter. Quickly turning off the machine and telling his daughter not to struggle he tries to make his way toward her, but it's too late. As she busts open one of the plates of the animatronic, it topples over and crushes her. Knowing that this could ruin the business, William hides the girl's body in a reworked Spring Bonnie suit he had at home.

Back home, Kevin starts to notice the absence of his sister, he finds a suspicious looking bit of dirt in the yard and notices blood coming out of the Spring Bonnie suit in the workshop. William takes note of this and burns the suit to destroy all evidence. Karen becomes a figment, a ghost. A shadow, Shadow Bonnie.

At this time, fate kicks in and Kevin gets bit by the on stage Fredbear animatronic, an unintentional murder by his own brother, Mike. He is rushed to the hospital with only his beloved plushy by his side.

When in the hospital he begins to see apparitions, monsters that aren't actually there. They are all visions created by his sister and mother, now working together to get the boy to join them, to be with them again. After four long nights, Karen herself appears, along with the temporary spirits of two Springlock Suit victims.

At the end of the night Kevin sees a window of opportunity and tries to escape the hospital, only to be stopped at the front door by his Fredbear plush. Talking, saying she's his mother and begging him to join them, Kevin submits and is killed by Shadow Bonnie, to become ***The Brother***, his remains are stored inside a grey, wooden box.
