#Ella Williams

[ancestorsalive]

Ella Williams, (born 1865) also known by her stage name 'Mme Abomah', was an American performer. She was a woman of extraordinary height and strength who became an international celebrity in the late 1800s.

Born in South Carolina in 1865 to parents who were former slaves, Williams grew to be over eight feet tall after contracting malaria when she was around 14 years old. Abomah and her manager decided to take her act to Europe because racism was less pronounced there compared to the United States, and they knew that audiences in Europe would be more accepting of a tall, strong, and beautiful Black woman.

Abomah cancelled her tours and returned to the US when Britain declared war on Germany in August 1914.

Do you guys think that if young Vanessa was put into the Ella suit, she might have springlock scars like William in The Silver Eyes?

And she always wears long sleeves to cover them up?

Me explaining why Movie!Mike's dad is actually going to be the film counterpart to Henry Emily;

#there are so many parallels #esp to the novel triolgy #garret is probably the puppet #the springlock suit they tried to put abby in looks almost identical to charlie's ella doll from the novels #and the scene with Abby hiding from foxy is straight of TSE #in the books it happened to Charlie (HENRY'S DAUGHTER) #and Mike's whole trauma with Garret is almost identical to Charlie's trauma with her brother Sammy from the books #Mike not specifying exactly what happened to their dad #just saying “he couldn't take it” #in the novels Henry actually KILLED himself due to GUILT #and it would explain why William reacted the way he did when he read Mike's name! #he realized that he was HENRY'S (or this movies equive) son! #fnaf #fnaf movie #fnaf theory #fnaf the silver eyes #henry emily #mike schmidt #my stuff #five nights at freddy's #theory

Ella Fitzgerald por William Gottlieb (con Duke Ellington en el público)

I think the Fnaf movie (and all the sequels it will inevitably get) is a great way to see what Scott views as the most important aspect of each character in the series.

Spoilers below.

Obviously, Mike and Vanessa are both very different here than in the games. Mike is (PROBABLY) no longer an Afton, Vanessa is definitely an Afton, Mike isn’t going by an alias, Vanessa is a victim of abuse rather than possession, etc.

In some regard, they almost feel like completely different characters (especially Mike). So with that in mind, when we look at the traits that these characters do share with their game counterparts, we can boil these characters down to their fundamentals (or at least what Scott views as their fundamentals)

Mike is riddled with guilt over the death of his brother, which he feels like he should have been able to prevent. Even well into his adulthood, long after the deed is done, he is still trying to fix what he perceives as blood on his hands, whether that is the case or not. This guilt often manifests as vivid dreams.

Vanessa is William’s reluctant follower. She has been manipulated into supporting him, even though she knows deep down how wrong her actions are for helping him. To aid him in his exploits, she takes up a career in a position of authority that lets her inconspicuously hang out around Freddy’s.

On a personal note, I think it’s interesting that these are the traits that Scott chose to emphasize between the two characters. While Mike’s relationship with his brother is definitely a strong part of what makes his character interesting, I’d argue that it is better executed in the games because there, he actually did cause his brother’s death and has reason to feel guilty over it. I also think that Michael’s dynamic with William is just as important as his relationship with Evan/Garrett/the Crying Child—William is Michael’s shadow archetype, he represents the absolute worst of what Michael could be. The movie completely lacks this dynamic, which makes their beef feel less personal despite the fact that William did kill Michael’s brother in this timeline (though I’d argue that that’s more the fault of the fact that William only has THREE SCENES in the movie total)

Movie Vanessa fares better, but mostly because she absorbs a lot of Michael’s role from the games by virtue of being an Afton child that lived past adolescence. I personally prefer her role as William’s successor rather than as a reluctant follower; copycat killers are a staple of the horror genre, and we are severely lacking in batshit crazy, irredeemable female villains in both movies and video games. That’s more what I was hoping Vanny would end up being in Security Breach, but I also acknowledge that that’s 100% just me projecting.

Unlike the two protagonists, though, William stays mostly the same between the movie, the games, and the books. I think it’s interesting that they chose to continue the trend of giving him an alias to hide under, while his real name is something of a dirty word because of everything he did. We notably don’t have proof that he did this in the games, and it’s got me thinking. Is there a named character mentioned somewhere in the games that’s actually just William under a fake name?

Who knows. Get speculating!
