I Solved FNAF Help Wanted 2

Not gonna lie I really hope that the chip theory is correct. It would be crazy to see nearly 5 years of fnaf games connected by a chip that appears for like 10 seconds. Awesome stuff John!!

FNAF theory has never been this simple before. Wtaching your and MatPat's theory felt that its a perfect theory. As for that chip you mentioned in Baby and Helpi, I don't think it's a loose thread. Remember that disk device on Funtime Freddy we needed to remove in night 3 of Sister Location? It was also just a random task until the Twisted Ones novel came out and that's where we learned that its an illusion disk. I believe that chip plays a bigger role.

John got so good at reeling in his theories. The growth of this channel is actually amazing! All of John’s interpretations feel right. I feel confident in the gravestones indicating which souls moved on first. Great theory to end off the year! :D

That was fast

The thing with the computer chip has to be one of the most solid things I’ve seen in a FNaF theory in years. It absolutely had to be something important, and it made sense for it to be related to either glitchtrap or the mimic, but the Helpy thing is so blatant that you really cannot deny it

In regards to the FallFest fire, I would like to point to Candy Cadet's first story in Help Wanted 2. A Family had the opportunity of a lifetime to buy a pizza deal for $50, but they turned it down and all died. I interpret this as whoever owned the carnival having an opportunity to join Henry and William in their Pizza business by buying shares in their company but they turned it down, then the carnival mysteriously caught fire and Henry found himself in the possession of the Carnie animatronic, which he later repurposes into Lefty.

I just rewatched and realized something supporting the idea that by collecting the plushies you’re letting the memories be forgotten: Collecting the Faz Force figures works as that goal’s symbolic opposite. Instead of letting the memories be laid to rest you’re collecting merchandise specifically of the characters associated with each victim and putting them on display. An act that preserves the memories of the victims by grouping them together. Going back to this symbolism in the plushies, they’re not placed together and assembled into a display after being collected. They are in individual locations as if whoever left them there had no intention of showing them. Collecting the plushies in this way lets them be remembered and then let go instead of showcasing the memories like the collection of Faz Force figures.

I love that more and more characters are being used in FNAF now! Even just as much as The Mimic sort of replacing Afton as the main antagonist got me excited for where the story is going, but now with Helpy and Bonnie Bro having lore importance!? It's just so damn exciting!!!

Uhhhh… since when has making a FNaF theory gone this smoothly and perfectly? Knowing Steelwool and Scott, I feel like there’s gotta be more…

I sat up straight as soon as you made the connection between cassie's dad and the paranoid employee. THAT pulled me in more than i already was lol.

I think the "remember Jeremy" achievement is refering to the Jeremy mentioned in the FNaF VR tapes, since Cassie's dad knowing that Jeremy is much more believable than him remembering the child that was stuffed into Bonnie back in the 80s

What I find interesting is that the speculation around Eclipse being far older was definetly proven to be correct in this game as well as many other things. I don‘t exactly remember what other animatronics were suspected to be older in form of a circus attraction but there were definetly hints in all games and books and now all pieces seem to fit together.

Oh my goodness, that theory was awesome!!! My jaw dropped, when you mentioned the chip from Sister Location looks pretty identical to the one that's in Helpy's brain. (It may be far fetched but look at some of the FF and TFTPP books) Which got me to thinking, could that same disc be the implant that is plugged into Cassie's brain??

A FuhNaff video, the best way to end the year of Fnaf! Let's hope next year is even better (and less confusing)!

always get so excited when you post a new theory. you always bring up new ideas that i havent thought about yet or havent seen others mention, especially that note from cassie's dad in ruin! have a good new years!

Ending the year on such a strong note! Love this theory, John, and I can’t wait to see what you have in store for us next. Hope you have a happy New Year, my dude! And same to everyone else here in the comments 🖤

What a perfect end to a great year for FNAF :)

I actually like Rye’s interpretation of the graves. Dying and possessing an animatronic don’t have to occur at the same time. The MCI kids could have died first but just wandered until Charlie died, possessed the puppet and gave them bodies.

I don't necessarily agree with Cassie's dad being the Princess Quest guy. I think he was just one of the employees of Fazbear Entertainment that was killed by Vanessa as implied in the emails (including the unused ones from AR since a lot of IT staff that went to these birthday parties and company retreats...) I do think he was the Bonnie Bully though, since that is the only time we see that kind of mask outside of Ruin and HW2.

John, your theories in 2023 have been amazing. Happy new year!
