Glitchtrap is the digital manifestation of the legacy left behind by William Afton being mimicked by M2. When Fazbear Entertainment attempts to rebuild its reputation by creating games based on the company's history, old circuit boards are scanned and incorporated into the development process. Something within that technology survives. Glitchtrap initially appears to be a strange digital rabbit, but his behaviour quickly reveals that he is far more than a harmless anomaly. He manipulates people from within the virtual environment, attempting to escape the boundaries of the game and influence the real world. Rather than simply being William Afton resurrected digitally, Glitchtrap is the Mimic M2 program mimicking Aftons actions, the consequence of Afton. His existence allows the consequences of William's actions to continue long after his physical body is gone.
