Phone Guy

The **Phone Guy** is the deuteragonist of *Five Nights at Ronald's*. He is an employee who works for MacRonald’s and calls John every night for various reasons.

Throughout the game, he monotonously informs the player about the animatronics and how to prevent them from entering The Office by using the lights, the cameras and the doors. He also talks about his son being in the hospital, and not being capable to pay the treatments.

on Night 4, he got so mad because he was fired by the company because they cared about only money and never cared about him. He plots revenge against the company and wants everybody to feel what he’s feeling.

## Phone Calls

### Night 1

*Hey there. If you're hearing this, that means it’s your first night as a security guard in the restaurant MacRonald’s. Great isn't it? I know, I know, working here may be kinda scary, you'd be surprised to find how disturbed the employees can get after six homicides that took place. Look, the last security guard was angry with the manager cause he got fired and really needed the money for his family, the next day he returned and shot everyone in the place. Yeah, it was awful. After that day, people stopped coming. So, we needed to bring our clients back. And we did it with the same technique as always: buying animatronics: the kids love them. So, we got some animatronics that move and spend time with the kids, but they move at night too and they are looking for someone. In this case, it's going to be you. You don't want them close to you, so that's why we got some doors to stop them, lights to see them, and cameras to know where they are. You can't use them a lot because they consume energy, and if you run out of power they will catch you, and they will stuff you into an animatronic costume. And you know what happens next, right? Look, I've worked there before and there's nothing to be afraid of, I swear. Well, that's it for today. Oh! I almost forgot, we once had an inflatable sentient balloon resembling Ronald McDonald at the top of the restaurant, but it is now out of order and we stored him in a box. The thing is that the inflatable can move in dark areas, so you may need to recharge the light of the room constantly. Well, good luck.*

### Night 2

*Hey there. Welcome to your second day of work. I'm sure you haven't got into any trouble in that office right? Well, the animatronics do become more active with each night that passes, so you may need to be more active too, and keep an eye on things seriously. Also, you should keep an eye on the chicken animatronic, it may run to your door pretty quickly. Well, I don't have much time left. I really need to go. My son is in the hospital and I really need to see him, well that's all for today. Good luck.*

### Night 3

*Hey there. Do you remember yesterday when my son went to the hospital? Well, he got an infection, and I don't have any money for the treatments. I don't even know where I'll be able to get the cash. I guess I need to stay here. Well, you get back to work. Oh, and if you see that anthromorphic cheeseburger-like animatronic in the cameras, you will be in big trouble. He will get inside the ventilation system, in the office, and he will catch you. So before he gets there, you should repel him with the flashing light we got for you. But try not to use it too much, since it does consume a lot of power, and it does take some time to cool down. Just be careful. Well, good luck.*

### Night 4

*What do you expect from society, when they just take what you really love. Forgiveness? That's not enough for me, my son could have been saved, but they just had to fire me! They only cared about the money, even though they already had enough. They never cared for people like me, not even for my son. Now, I want revenge! I want everyone to feel what I'm feeling right now! Society had it's chance!*

## Trivia

* The voice of Phone Guy in every single night was voiced by Tanfor Games, the creator of his own game.
* His statements on Night 3 and Night 4 are strangely similar to the former security guard who committed the massacre he mentioned during his first call, suggesting that he might be the said security guard. This is supported by the ending screen having a drawing of a boy and his father, and a gun next to the drawing.
	+ This also suggests that the massacre never happened, and that he is going to make it real.
		- Him mentioning the incident on his first call could also suggest that they are not the same person, and that he is going to commit a similar massacre.
	+ The line “Society had it's chance!” is from James Huberty. A character from *Criminal Minds*.
