Timeline
All the way back, after Elliot Ludwig had divorced his wife, he would work for his company Playtime Co. A family death then pushed Ludwig to his lowest hes ever been. Its unknown who died, although continued to work on his company. He would later create big toys like Poppy Playtime, which helped his company grow. He would then hire people like Jimmy Roth to help his company thrive.
After years of new toys, many toys would become popular. Out of all the toys ever created by Playtime Co., Huggy Wuggy was the most popular and memorable toy. During an unknown time, Playtime Co. opened factory tour guides for $2.99 per visitor, although it is speculated around the time Poppy gained popularity as both her commercial tape and the tour guide' commercial tape are put into one video.
Playtime Co. would then try to experiment with their toys, trying to inject a living rat into one of their toys. It is revealed within the documents that other people possess these toys. Marie Payne, for example, possesses Mommy Long Legs. It is presumed that also Poppy Playtime is possessed by Elliot Ludwigs daughter, and she was the presumed family member that pushed him to his lowest.
The factory would then have all its employees disappear out of thin air, and the factory would then shut down. The Player would then explore the factory after getting a letter from these supposed employees that they are still in the factory, and the player must find them.
