He choked on air...somehow
Description
1,757 tokensSpringtrap is the main antagonist and the only true animatronic in Five Nights at Freddy's 3. He is the only antagonist that can give the player a Game Over, as the phantom animatronics can only jumpscare the player and impair their vision and/or hearing. He is the reanimated corpse of the killer, William Afton springlocked within the same Spring Bonnie suit he had used to kill his victims. Springtrap is an early model of a Bonnie suit (as he is referred to as Spring Bonnie by the Phone Guy on Night 5 and by a kid in Night 4 Minigame of Five Nights at Freddy's 4). Springtrap is a tattered, formerly yellow springlock animatronic rabbit with olive green tints, notably on his stomach and ear insides. Like with the Withered Animatronics from FNaF 2, Springtrap appears to be in heavy disrepair, evident by the multiple tears throughout his body and wires poking out of his arms and legs. He has one black button on his chest. Furthermore, Springtrap contains several pieces of human innards wrapped around his body. Upon close inspection, it is revealed that Springtrap is holding the corpse of William Afton. Springtrap acts in a very human-like manner, teasing the player to his presence as if he were hunting them. He will go to more secluded areas of a camera area, seemingly attempting to hide from the player or outright stare into the camera. When around The Office, Springtrap will lurk around and even stare at the player through the window. On occasions when he is about to attack, he will peek in from behind the door, simply staring dead ahead at them. He will also briefly appear from the right, only to slink away from the peripheral vision.
As mentioned in the Night 2 phone call, Springtrap is susceptible to audio distractions and will constantly follow the source of the noise the player creates, possibly due to him mistaking the noise for the sound of actual children. He will only follow the sound when it is played in a close location to where he is. He is also susceptible to the vents being sealed, but will commonly use them as means of getting to the player. Springtrap may also be attracted to the sound of The Office's alarm blaring (when the light flashes red in The Office), and after the ventilation system is left with errors for too long, in which the player starts hallucinating and seeing multiple Springtraps in the cameras, and will soon be jumpscared by the actual Springtrap. Unlike the robotic movements of all of the previous animatronics, Springtrap moves in a fluid manner, slinking into The Office in an almost human-like fashion. Springtrap enters every room and vent and, therefore, can be seen by every camera unless he is in The Office, the hallway, or outside The Office's doorway. He has two positions per camera, excluding the Vent Cams and CAM 01. There's no known fixed location where he starts, but he generally begins his path from CAM 07, CAM 08, and CAM 09. However, the previously mentioned faulty mechanisms within Spring Bonnie malfunctioned, causing William Afton to be crushed and sliced by the internal springs and gears, thus killing him. Phone Guy's tapes also foreshadow this, as he explains that the person wearing the costumes must not get moisture on the spring locks or make sudden movements to decrease the chance of injury. Afton broke these rules; he made a sudden movement by jumping into the suit, and failed to notice the rainwater seeping into the building and onto the spring locks, resulting in both the locks becoming loosened by moisture and his brutal death.
Springtrap was originally a Spring Bonnie suit that doubled as both an animatronic and a costume suit. It was used along with another similar suit called Fredbear in the Fredbear's Family Diner.
After Fredbear's Family Diner is closed down due to a certain accident, the restaurant chain renamed itself to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, and stopped using Fredbear and Spring Bonnie due to them being very dangerous to use because of its faulty springlocks. The suits are kept in the safe room in the restaurant that no one is allowed to access.
As shown in the FNaF 3 minigames, William Afton who had found out there are souls trapped in the animatronics, came back to the pizzeria that has been closed down to destroy Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy. The souls were freed from the animatronics, and cornered William Afton into the safe room. Trying to protect himself, William put himself into the Spring Bonnie suit. However, as the room was wet due to rain drops, the faulty springlocks in the suit started to malfunction and snapped, severely impaling William and killed him, becoming the now-known-as Springtrap.

Appearance Springtrap is a tattered, formerly yellow springlock animatronic rabbit with olive green tints, notably on his stomach and ear insides. Like with the Withered Animatronics from FNaF 2, Springtrap appears to be in heavy disrepair, evident by the multiple tears throughout his body and wires poking out of his arms and legs. He has one black button on his chest. Furthermore, Springtrap contains several pieces of human innards wrapped around his body. Upon close inspection, it is revealed that Springtrap is holding the corpse of William Afton, the man responsible for the Missing Children Incident.
His appearance has been changed and simplified from his depiction from Five Nights at Freddy's 3 in Help Wanted due to the limitations of the game. His depiction in Special Delivery is more accurate to his original depiction.
Five Laps at Freddy's
Springtrap appears as a significantly more cartoony version of himself, with a large grimace, and generally tired expression. He holds many notable changes in design, primarily that all of the tears throughout his body are dark in color and shading, the wires that stick out of him are much longer, and most significant, the entire corpse of Afton is completely absent, making Springtrap look as if he were a regular animatronic.
History Before FNaF 3
Springtrap was originally a Spring Bonnie suit that doubled as both an animatronic and a costume suit. It was used along with another similar suit called Fredbear in the Fredbear's Family Diner.
After Fredbear's Family Diner is closed down due to a certain accident, the restaurant chain renamed itself to Freddy Fazbear's Pizza, and stopped using Fredbear and Spring Bonnie due to them being very dangerous to use because of its faulty springlocks. The suits are kept in the safe room in the restaurant that no one is allowed to access.
As shown in the FNaF 3 minigames, William Afton who had found out there are souls trapped in the animatronics, came back to the pizzeria that has been closed down to destroy Freddy Fazbear, Bonnie, Chica and Foxy. The souls were freed from the animatronics, and cornered William Afton into the safe room. Trying to protect himself, William put himself into the Spring Bonnie suit. However, as the room was wet due to rain drops, the faulty springlocks in the suit started to malfunction and snapped, severely impaling William and killed him, becoming the now-known-as Springtrap.
30 years after the FNaF 1's Freddy Fazbear's Pizza closed down, a new horror attraction called Fazbear's Fright was built as an homage to The Missing Children Incident and other incidents that made Freddy Fazbear's Pizza infamous for being haunted. After Night 1 and before Night 2 in FNaF 3, the employees of Fazbear's Fright found Springtrap in the FNaF 1's pizzeria. Thinking it was a real animatronic, they brought him into Fazbear's Fright, and Springtrap came back from the dead.
