I can't be the one to deny that the cold-blooded slaughter of five children is monstrous (and in a rather needlessly gruesome way, if you remember the details about being stuffed inside an animatronic). Add the fact he goes for Jeremy in the present and may be tampering with the animatronics adds to an undeniably evil villain of its character, especially given the highly enigmatic nature of FNaF.

I've become desensitized to the whole idea of murdering children in fiction, but the Marionette did it with no apparent motive, and I'm still not going to say that killing kids isn't a heinous crime. As for any other evidence, we don't even know who the Purple Figure is, and all in-game evidence points to the Marionette having none of the potential excuses the animatronics have. Anything about it giving "life" or otherwise is purely speculative. From all other angles, the Marionette's a serial killer of the worst kind.
