Chester the Chimpanzee

* Original
* Withered

**Chester the Chimpanzee** is one of the main antagonists of the Five Nights at Candy's series. He is one of the main enemies in *Five Nights at Candy's Remastered* and *Five Nights at Candy's 2*. He also appears in a minigame in *Five Nights at Candy's 3* in a form of an 8-bit sprite.

## Physical Appearance

Chester is a chimpanzee animatronic with brown fur and a pair of green overalls with yellow buttons. He has olive-colored eyes and a peach-colored stomach. His upper teeth are half-covered, possibly a curled lip. He can also be seen sometimes holding a red guitar.

### Withered Form

While staying true to his original appearance, Withered Chester is older and broken down. He lacks his right upper arm and left lower leg exoskeleton, revealing his endoskeleton underneath. Part of his face is completely removed alongside the casing for his eyes and his left ear and his chest appear dirty. He is also missing his eyes.

Chester can also be seen unwithered in the first minigame, he appears to be the same as he was in the first game.

### Minigame Sprite

Chester looks similar to his FNaC 1 counterpart here, only as an anthropomorphic monkey.

## Main Appearances

### *Five Nights at Candy's Remastered*

Chester will become active on Night 2 onwards. He is first hidden behind his curtains in Secondary Party Room (CAM 9) before peeking out and then coming off the stage and onto the floor. He will go through his way to the office through CAM 8, 7, and then finally 6 where he will be outside of the player's left door, signified by his glowing white eyes. The player will have a few seconds to react and close the door; otherwise, Chester will get in, which results in his jumpscare followed by a game over. Chester is typically far more active than the other animatronics on the earlier nights, and often appears more times than the rest combined.

### *Five Nights at Candy's 2*

Withered Chester becomes active on Night 2. He can appear in any camera like the other animatronics. His mechanism is different from most other animatronics: instead of trying to get to the player from the Central Hall, he will try to get to the player through the vents. By clicking the phone in the room Chester is in, the player can scare him away, and then he runs out of sight of the camera. Chester is never seen in the Central Hall, except during a jumpscare. He bangs on the vent cover while trying to get in it, so the player can listen for when they need to react to him. If left unattended, he will enter the vents and loudly climb towards the player; at this point, a jumpscare is unavoidable unless the night ends first.

## Other Appearances

### *Five Nights at Candy's 2*

In the minigame after Night 1, Starting from the Secondary Party Room, the player controls Chester to wander around the restaurant to find a golden key sitting in the Office. The first frame upon entering the Office shows New Vinnie standing on the other side of the room, but it immediately disappears. Entering Parts & Services reveals three posters on the wall showing v2 versions of a large amount of animatronics: New Candy and New Cindy have green checkmarks, while "New Chester" has a red X, likely indicating he is not scheduled for a replacement model, unlike the others. The key can be used to unlock the large padlock on the door, not on the first game's map where The Rat starts from. Walking up to the door after collecting the key will end the minigame.

In the minigame after Night 2, starting from Parts & Services, the player controls the Penguin to search the restaurant for three broken pieces of Chester: an arm, a leg, and his head after RAT torn him apart. Chester's former curtained location is now blocked off by a strip of yellow and black caution tape. The player can only collect one piece at a time before returning it to a cardboard box at their starting point. Blank can be found sitting inactive in the Drawing Room but cannot be interacted with. Returning the third piece of Chester will end the minigame.

### *Five Nights at Candy's 3*

In the minigame *Cindy's Garden*, while Cindy is trying to stop moles from stealing her flowers, Chester appears in the background, reading a book.

He also shows up in the glitched minigame of *Candy's Adventure*.

## Trivia

* Chester appeared in the final teaser for the second game. Brightening the teaser showed text saying "Why didn't they like me?".
* The minigames imply Chester was scrapped earlier then Candy and Cindy, perhaps after being damaged by The Rat. This explains why he keeps the same joints and suit parts.
* In the second game, Chester is the only character that moves on-camera.
