## History

### Pre comic

William Afton was born in London, England on September 25th 1941.

In his early years William was a strange and closed off child, rarely talking to anyone, even his own family, to make things ever so slightly worse his family found out that he had made a habit out of killing small animals that popped up in their backyard. But since it was the 40's no one did anything about this behaviour other than tell him not to (which defiantly didn't help).

Over time William's behaviour seemed to become more "normal" or at least what was normal in the 50's. Well he didn't do particularly well in high school, he didn't do really bad either. He definitely did a lot better in collage schooling wise, and even made a few friends.

Not to far into his first year in collage he met Henry Emily and Jane Schmidt, the three hit it off immediately and were inseparable, then a year later William and Jane started dating. Over the next few years Will and Henry started coming up with ideas for things they could make that would involve both of their passions, and they decided on robots, specifically a yellow bear and bunny.

Fredbear and Springbonnie were nothing more than a Labour of love by the two, with Henry working on the creative parts and William handling the more logical parts as well as most of the machinery.

Then in March of 1966 William married his girlfriend Jane, and three years after that their son Michael Schmidt-Afton was born. Michael was a curious child which led him to spending a lot of time around William and Henry just watching them work, much to William's dismay.

Over the next few years William often spent more time working on Fredbear's than he did with his family or even his own health, but he would be broken out of this status quo when his wife Jane became pregnant with they're second child. William expected things to return to some version of "normal" with Jane taking care of the kids leaving William alone to continue his work, what he didn't expect was Jane dying, leaving him with two children.

Not to long after Jane's funeral William met a woman named Annabelle Lee. Though he and Annabelle got along well William started to feel like he needed to do something to make him feel better after the death of his wife. While at Fredbear's wearing the Springbonnie suit William lured a pair of twins into the back room of the diner, murdered them and then threw they're bodies in the alley for the authorities to find.

A few months after that William and Annabelle had a daughter, Elizabeth Afton, soon after she was born the pair got married. In 1980 the family moved to Hurricane, Utah because of Henry wanting to move back to his home town. Not too long after the family had gotten settled in to their new home William had gotten inspired by his daughter to make an animatronic in her image, he told her about this and asked her to name it, she named it Circus Baby. He spent the next three years mostly working on Circus Baby and three other animatronics to go with her, as well as Fredbear's.
