## SHADOW TORTURED LOCKJAW

### Occupation

Unknown (Premused to act as an Easter Egg)

### Species

Hallucination (Humanoid)

**Shadow Tortured Lockjaw** is the shadowy version of Tortured Lockjaw that would have made his debut appearance in The Return to Freddy's 5: Story Mode, prior to its cancellation.

## Appearance

Shadow Tortured Lockjaw appears to look like a black animatronic-like figure that resembles Tortured Lockjaw. He seems to have red glowing eyes and white glowing teeth. Not much of his appearance other than that was shown due to him only appearing in a single miscellaneous image. In the first Bad Ending of the game, he is shown to have tentacles all around his body and smoke coming out of his mouth.

## Behaviour

### Gameplay

It is unknown what Shadow Tortured Lockjaw's role was. However, it is speculated that he was meant to act as an Easter Egg, a character that can randomly appear during gameplay and crash it.

### Minigames

In the minigames labeled as "machine is turned on...?" - "Dark Secrets..." - "abandoned..." and "Never Happy/Happy B-day...?", Shadow Tortured Lockjaw appears as a transparent ghostly figure that is continually watching at the player the player's movement throughout the minigame.

### Endings

Shadow Tortured Lockjaw's appearance in the endings was only shown in the first Bad Ending, where he is seen talking to BFP about his biggest fear and failed attempts to get rid of it.

## Monologue

**What is it that you're afraid of...? Are you afraid of yourself...? You're afraid of hurting others... You're afraid of losing close ones...You're afraid of being alone... That's the problem... isn' it... When close ones say how much they care about you, and that you're never alone, you still feel alone inside... You're not open... What worries me is that you talk to yourself and consider your subconscious as your close friend... Something inside is hurting you... you're hiding it... never told anyone... never telled to a single soul... something is worrying you... You need to open up to the others... let them get in... and get rid of me... You try and try, but every day, every night, every second, every minute, and every hour, you always feel alone... You cry for yourself to sleep every night... You feel hopeless and... Not even therapy or even the most professional therapists fixed you... You're broken inside... You tried getting rid of yourself... but something held you back... And that thing, or... person... is your core... You WILL be alright... just give it time... you'll be out of here... soon... very soon...**

## Trivia

* It is mentioned in the "A Story" video that Shadow Tortured Lockjaw's sprites in the third Flashback minigame and the third Bad Ending were intentionally not given animatronic joints, which are used to differentiate human characters with robotic characters.
