Not enough people acknowledge that Mike should probably have the same ghosty stuff as the missing kids. He’s not brought back to life, he possesses his corpse the same way they possess the animatronics. He can leave his body and wander as a ghost! It might even be involuntary! He can visit dreams! He can probably control smaller objects! He might be able to have his memories influenced the same way a lot of the ghosts ended up (it might also just be because they’re young but it could explain why he kept following William or Henry). Make your local corpse man ghost bustable!

Soooo for the Ruin dlc,how about a ghost!child!reader who was murdered by Vanny meeting Cassie and kind of just following her around and also doing the best they can to help her with them being a ghost?
-Greek myth anon 📜
When Cassie first saw you, she thought you were part of the AR network, but you're still present even when she takes off the mask.
"Wh-Who are you?"
"[Y/n]...it's..a long story, but I kinda died here and I've been stuck haunting this place ever since."
"Oh no...did one of the Glamrocks kill you..?"
"No, but this lady in a rabbit costume did...that used to be hers." You point out the security mask, frowning. "Why do you have it?"
"I...I don't know. Some STAFF bot gave it to me. I need it to disable all the security systems."
"And..why is that?"
"I'm looking for my friend. He's trapped beneath the raceway..can you help me?" She pleads.
"....maybe, but I can't really do much from...wherever I am now." You tell her, although you agree to accompany her throughout the ruined pizzaplex.
Whenever she puts on that mask again, you feel uneasy and have to look away a lot, feeling sick to your stomach. She always apologizes, though, and takes it off as soon as she's done with her current task.
You do what you can to help her in her journey, such as temporarily possessing STAFF bots to distract the Glamrocks should they show up---yet none of them really hold up for long as they're quickly destroyed or shutdown.
It was sad, as you have watched all of them rot and decay both physically and mentally over the years...no longer being those animatronics you once adored.
Eventually you both encountered Roxy after you found a security bot in good condition to pilot, and you're stunned that she actually recognizes Cassie.
And later on, she recognizes your voice, too, and you gave her some comfort as she's deactivated by her human friend.
You could see she's torn up about it, and you also console her as she cries, clearly feeling guilty and stressed over everything.
"I-I didn't want to do it...but...I had no choice..!"
"I'm sure she understood, Cassie." You pat her back. "We have to keep going...for Gregory. And then you guys can go home and forget this horrible nightmare."
"B-But...But what about you..?" She sniffles. "Is there something keeping you here?"
"I thought it was that rabbit lady, but..I couldn't find her anywhere. And I've been here for years, stalking her until she just...disappeared one day."
While it's indeed a worrying thought, you tried pushing it into the back of your mind, assuring Cassie that your primary concerns are with her and not yourself.
Maybe your reason for being stuck here was to make sure nobody else went missing.
You could settle for that, as you didn't want anymore kids your age falling victim to Vanny or any of her horrid creations.
Cassie wasn't going to be one of them. Not on your watch.
