Nightmare Freddy

**Nightmare Freddy** is a major antagonist and one of the nightmare animatronics of the *Five Nights at Freddy's* film series, first appearing in *Five Nights at Freddy's*. He is a nightmarish variant of Freddy Fazbear who, along with some other animatronics under the control of Fredbear, tried to kill Mike Schmidt for five nights.

## Physical Appearance

Nightmare Freddy is an extensively tattered and exaggerated version of Freddy Fazbear, even more so than his torn appearance in the second game. Like the original Freddy, he is brown in color with lighter coloring on his stomach, ears, and muzzle. His arms are bulky and held out wide in a similar fashion to the other nightmare animatronics and his black top hat and bow tie are present. The hat looks very torn with wires poking out. He has long sharp teeth and razor-sharp claws with shining yellow eyes, giving him a more macabre appearance than his original counterpart. The teeth are red-tinted at the end, like Nightmare Fredbear's. His body shape is slightly different from Freddy as well, being much more sharp-edged and flat, with the head being much taller and more narrow than any of the other Freddy counterparts.

Large parts of his endoskeleton are exposed through tears and holes in Nightmare Freddy's body, especially through the upper torso and the lower legs. The endoskeleton appears to be somewhat similar to the ones from the *Five Nights at Freddy's 3* game, possibly revealing Springtrap and the nightmare animatronics were "made" around the same time as each other. Nightmare Freddy's hands are exactly the same as Springtrap's as well, albeit a different color to fit in with the bear color scheme. The tips of the fingers are completely lacking any fabric whatsoever, showing even more of the endoskeleton frame beneath. During certain scenarios of the game, the claws are shown to be possibly retractable as they are not visible in every appearance Nightmare Freddy makes.

Like most of the other nightmare animatronics, Nightmare Freddy's head appears to be separated into two parts by possible deterioration, thus revealing more of the head frame inside as well as a small second set of teeth, present in all of the other nightmares from the fourth game. Red wires pour from the top of his head. Half of his right ear is missing, and most of the material surrounding his eyes has rotted away. Unlike his previous counterparts, Nightmare Freddy lacks eyebrows. The same applies for a part of the bottom half of his muzzle, giving him the appearance of a curled lip. His eyes are also very similar to Springtrap from the third game, with a metallic gray material surrounding the glowing pupil within.

**Freddles,** also known as **Mini-Freddies,** are three smaller versions of Nightmare Freddy which are seen hanging off around his body, and will sometimes detach and jump onto the player's bed. Each one has blackish eyes with large glowing white pupils. The trio's damaged features look different to each other. One of them also appear to have a large bowtie while two others lacks one, although it is very difficult to locate. They also sport three fingers per hand and two toes per foot.

## Personality

Cold-hearted and malicious, Nightmare Freddy appears as a warped, twisted version of the original Freddy's persona. Like the other nightmares, Nightmare Freddy has no qualms about tormenting his victims with his metallic hands and enjoys mocking them when given the opportunity, as seen in *Ultimate Custom Night*. As with other nightmares, his put-downs tend to be rather sardonic in nature. He speaks using a low-pitched, monotonous, gravelly, robotic voice. He is also somewhat poetic in his speech. The Freddles however, are shown to be more mischievous and shy, in contrast to their master-of-sorts.
