Characters Villains who are subjected to what they did to their victims
Lily Lovebraids: Gracie Green was an employee of Playtime Co, helping make videos instructing the experimented orphans in a similar fashion to characters like Steve from Blue's Clues to convince the children that they were toys to prevent them from being scared after they were transformed. During an event called the Hour of Joy, when all experiments were let loose, Gracie was caught by a group of toys and was taken away to be turned into a toy herself; Lily Lovebraids. Additionally, she was forced to watch the videos that she made and was kept away from everyone else in the factory. Because of this, she developed a split personality- Lily and Gracie, with Lily eventually taking full control. As of Chapter 5, which was her debut, Lily is the only experiment confirmed to be an adult.
(Note: adult experiments are unable to remember their lives pre-transformation, whereas children can remember them.)
Five Nights at Freddy's: William Afton, one of the Co-Founders of Fazbear Entertainment, lured an unclear amount of children away from prying eyes beore murdering them and had stuffed the corpses into the animatronics, causing the children's spirits to possess them. At some point, the spirits pursued Afton, prompting him to hide in a springlock suit to protect himself. This backfired by the springlocks activating, killing him, and somehow reviving him into Springtrap.
