why does william afton kill

'William Afton', well, he's one infamous character from the 'FNAF' (Five Nights at Freddy's) series. Although the game doesn't overtly explain, fans have pieced together that Afton's motivation to kill might be out of his own twisted desire to experiment with animatronics and human souls.

It's a dark storyline - a fascination with immortality running deep. He's the man who created animatronics which leads him to this grim discovery, a sort of sick path to try to achieve immortality.

Other genocides. But in his increasingly unbalanced mind, he thought that, by killing others, he could tie up their spirits inside the animatronics. His mania drove him to carry out a series of callous killings. Some say his motive is far simpler but still equally despicable-sadistic pleasure and utter lack of compassion for the people he murders. It is a tangled web of motive hidden in a dark unhappy story.

There are also some followers who interpret what he has done as a macabre preoccupation with all things grotesque and unnatural, tempting him into carrying out such ghastly deeds. Afton is a homemade evil of human motives- grief, mortality and the revelatory powers of emotion or hatred such as one can only get from such consuming obsessions. Whether out of grief, insanity, or plain malice, Afton's behavior marks him down as one of games' most chilling characters.
