You know, nevermind actually, I have a better idea.

FNaF hinges on the basic principle that you, as the player, are unable to actively save yourself from the situation. Everything in the game is completely defensive, and your choices get more and more limited as the power drains. So what if the statues drain potential energy from people who activate them, moving more and more as the people are only able to move less and less.

How they activate could perhaps be as easy as making eye contact. Or, given the nature of the game and this effect, whenever they aren't being fed power electrically.
