Spring Bonnie

* The Sliver Eyes
* Into the Pit

**Spring Bonnie**, also simply referred to as **Yellow Bonnie** in several memories and commonly mistaken for Bonnie the Bunny, is a minor character in *Five Nights at Freddy's: The Silver Eyes* and the main antagonist in *Fazbear Frights: Into the Pit's* first story.

He is a Springlock Suit used in Fredbear's Family Diner by his creator, William Afton. As an animatronic/suit, he's a children entertainer, but was used by William Afton to lure and kill the young victims. After Afton was springlocked inside Spring Bonnie, he "became one with his creation" and was trapped inside the now rotten Spring Bonnie suit.

He is an alternative counterpart of Spring Bonnie from *Five Nights at Freddy's* and mascot of Fredbear's Family Diner with Fredbear.

## Appearance

Spring Bonnie's appearance is similar to Bonnie from the first game, upon closer inspection when compared to Bonnie, Spring Bonnie has a very different model shape. His ears are rounder and less pointy, his bowtie is smaller, and he has a different head shape. Spring Bonnie is a springlock animatronic having the same body and arms as Fredbear.

In Into the Pit, this version of Spring Bonnie is created by Eleanor, he is a bulky, animatronic golden rabbit with a large head, not too different from Nightmare Fredbear's, with square teeth in his wide mouth. In the cover, his eyes are small and blue, with apparent flesh surrounding them and a with agony ooze from his left eye, while his eyes are blank in the unused illustration, with no black tears. His body is rotund, yet no larger than his head, with slightly thinner limbs attached to them. The book describes him as looking organic, with an unhinging jaw and two rows of sharp fangs.

## History

### *The Silver Eyes*

Afton is seen wearing the Spring Bonnie suit to kidnap Carlton. He uses this same technique to kill children. Afton says that the suit fools the animatronics into thinking he is one of them. However, this suit doesn't fool Golden Freddy. Later, when William attempts to attack Charlie while wearing the suit, Charlie activates the springlocks, causing him to become Springtrap.

It's also stated that while at Fredbear's, Henry and William would wear the springlock suits and entertain the children.

### *The Twisted Ones*

*Main article: Springtrap*

The Spring Bonnie suit is first found early on in *The Twisted Ones* by Charlie and Jessica when they return to the ruins of Freddy Fazbear's, Charlie and Jessica find Afton's rotting corpse inside of the Spring Bonnie costume, stuffed inside of a small closet, by the animatronics after dragging him off a year ago. Disgusted and convinced that is he was dead, they leave. The suit returns later in the book with William still using it as Springtrap.

### *Fazbear Frights*

In *Fazbear Frights: Into the Pit*, at Jeff's Pizza, Oswald had an argument with his dad and decided to hide in the ball pit. However, upon emerging from the pit, he found himself in the year 1985, in which Jeff's Pizza used to be the establishment of the original Freddy Fazbear's Gang. Nobody seems to notice the golden rabbit except for Oswald. During another visit, Oswald spots Spring Bonnie standing lifelessly in the corner of a room, staring.

On Oswald's last visit to Freddy's, something is amiss, as customers escape the pizzeria. Spring Bonnie lures Oswald to the back room of Freddy's, where he sees Spring Bonnie's six other child victims, who were murdered and had party hats put on their heads. Spring Bonnie pursues Oswald towards the present day, where Oswald's father is waiting. Suddenly, Spring Bonnie drags Oswald's dad down the pit and emerges from it, taking Oswald into his dad's car and quietly driving off.

For a couple of days, Spring Bonnie seems to just impersonate Oswald's father, even the child's mother finds nothing wrong with him. It watches television, sleeps in a bed, and drives like a normal person. Only Oswald can see Spring Bonnie for what he truly is. One night, Spring Bonnie beckons Oswald downstairs where he offers him pizza. Spring Bonnie never says a single word to Oswald.

Finally, Oswald sneaks off to Jeff's Pizza, entering the ball pit for the last time, where he finds his dad and is confronted by Spring Bonnie. Spring Bonnie and Oswald begin to fight, with Oswald getting a few good pushes in. Spring Bonnie manages to bite into Oswald's arm with his unhinged, fanged jaw, drawing plenty of blood from Oswald, who punches the animatronic to get free. In the end, Spring Bonnie ends up tangled into the ball pit's netting, with part of the net strangling him. Noiselessly, he struggles and begs Oswald for help, ending up asphyxiated and hung in the ball pit. Suddenly, Spring Bonnie appears empty and rotten, his hung form almost appearing like it was there all along.

## Trivia

* Spring Bonnie is a springlock suit, like Fredbear, in the sense of the ability to be both an animatronic and a wearable suit.
* Alongside Circus Baby and Funtime Freddy, Spring Bonnie is one of the animatronics whose illustration was removed from the book due to lacking color.
* This story seems to be the first explaining the power of the illusion disc. Only Oswald saw Spring Bonnie for what he really was, because he had seen him in the 1985 Freddy Fazbear's Pizza. Every other person saw Spring Bonnie as Oswald's father, because that's what they expected to see. Jinx, Oswald's cat, also saw Spring Bonnie for what he was because Jinx has no expectations as to what will walk through the door.
	+ This also explains all the balloon children appearing in The Twisted Ones. Charlie heard a child in the location near her father's house, so she expects to see a child. The others arrive, and Charlie says that there are robotic children around them. She then explains the illusion disk shows what the person expects to see.
