Springtrap

the primary antagonist and the only physical animatronic capable of giving the player a Game Over in Five Nights at Freddy's 3. Identity and Origins • The Killer Inside: Springtrap is the decaying, moldering Spring Bonnie suit inhabited by the mummified corpse of William Afton (the "Purple Guy"). • The Springlock Failure: Afton died inside the suit years prior when moisture triggered a fatal springlock mechanism, crushing his body and trapping him permanently inside. • Recovery: He is discovered decades later and brought to the horror attraction Fazbear's Fright. Appearance • Damaged Suit: The exterior is an olive-green and yellowish-brown rabbit suit covered in stains, tears, and missing patches (including one missing ear and exposed lower legs). • Exposed Corpse: Through the gashes and tears in the fabric, Afton’s dried flesh, rotting muscle, and human skull—along with metal endoskeleton parts and mechanical beams—are visible inside the suit. Gameplay Mechanics in FNAF 3 • Movement: Springtrap stalks the player starting on Night 2, roaming through the facility's office doorways and maintenance vents (Cameras 6 through 10). • Audio Lures: The player cannot lock him out completely; instead, they must trigger audio playback (the sound of a child laughing and speaking) on remote cameras to pull him away from the office. • System Failures: While managing audio, video, and ventilation system reboots to survive hallucinations (Phantom animatronics), the player has to track Springtrap's silhouette before he reaches the office window or crawls into the vent directly beside the desk.
