Top 10 Scariest Things About Five Nights at Freddy's

The Jumpscares

What stops me from playing the game sometimes is the jump scares. They always get me when I least expect them!

The jump scares are what make the game scary.

It's the only scary thing about the game.

Foxy the Pirate Fox

Foxy is one of the main antagonists in the video game Five Nights at Freddy's. He is an animatronic pirate fox who hides in Pirate Cove and moves quickly toward the player. Foxy appears in various forms throughout the game's sequels and spin-offs.

For me, Foxy has always had one of the scariest jump scares, especially his Phantom one!

Chica the Chicken

I thought she was a duck. I learned a hard lesson after I said that.

Theories say that the Phone Guy was stuffed into Chica.

Her deformity is just not a good sign.

Bonnie

Bonnie is one of the four main antagonists in the horror video game Five Nights at Freddy's, released in 2014. He is an animatronic rabbit and plays guitar in the Freddy Fazbear's Pizza house band. Bonnie appears in various forms throughout the game's sequels and spin-offs.

In FNaF one, he takes off his face. I'm now officially dead inside. He's scary, bro.

In the trailer for the first game, Bonnie takes his head off. Like, WHAT!?

Scott Cawthon said that Bonnie is the only animatronic that gave him nightmares.

Freddy Fazbear

Freddy Fazbear (originally known as Freddybear, as seen in the Kickstarter) is one of the four main antagonists of Five Nights at Freddy's. He later appears in various forms across the succeeding games. Freddy is a haunted animatronic bear who plays a central role in the franchise's horror-themed narrative... read more

He is the only animatronic that has no pre-warning before he jump scares you. He just does it. With Foxy, you can avoid it by looking right. Freddy can come at any time, with no warning. You can't see him by turning on the light. You can only see him on the camera. Sometimes, while you're watching him on the camera, he will sneak into your office.

He's not scary, except for when he comes into your office and jump scares you unexpectedly.

Man, his jump scares in the first game were really bone-chilling!

Golden Freddy

Golden Freddy is one of the primary antagonists in the video game Five Nights at Freddy's. He appears as a ghost-like, yellow version of Freddy Fazbear and is known for his unpredictable appearances in the game. His mysterious nature has made him a fan-favorite among players of the series.

It's very hard to get rid of him in FNaF 2. If you don't pull your mask on in time, it's an instant jump scare!

His appearance looks horrifying in every single game!

The worst one. Damn it! He should be first on the list instead of being below.

The Moment You Run Out of Power

On Night 2, it was 5 AM, and I ran out of power and freaked out!

The Annoying Phone Calls

It's not annoying! Night 4 is where Phone Guy dies, and Night 5 features a threatening call from one of the animatronics. The identity of the caller remains a mystery.

Say hello three times? In Five Nights at Freddy's, the character says hello almost 20 times in a row.

"Most people don't make it this long!" - Phone Guy. Really comforting, dude.

The Feeling of Being Alone

Alone in a dark office, surrounded by wandering haunted animatronics. Oh yeah, I agree. I would consider leaving, to be honest.

At least there's Phone Guy, but he's pretty annoying!

The Night Setting

In the third game, it's stupid that there has to be a night guard. The place would be fine without one!

A pizzeria is creepy even during the day, but at night?

?

The Nightmares

?

The Hallucinations

Why are they shaped like the animatronics? They're just illusions.

The Screams Heard During Jumpscares

In the first game, the scream is ear-piercing and sounds just like a child screaming for help or being killed. In the second game, it sounds like a possessed robot. In the third game, it sounds creepy. In the fourth game, it sounds like a dinosaur!

I felt like someone was stabbing my ears when I heard the scream. I felt terrified.

That's the only reason I'm scared, so I always play without sound. I know it's bad when Foxy comes out, but it's not as scary.

The Puppet

It's possessed. That's all I can say about it.

He just looks like Slenderman.

The Inability to Move

If you get out of that office, it will lead you to the show stage where they will see you and kill you.

How much does the security guard make? He must really want his paycheck.

Freddy's Demonic Laugh

The first time I heard it, I closed the doors for the rest of the night. It didn't last long.

It sounds like he's going to kill you!

The Hidden Secrets

The Dark Backstories

Definitely. They're scarier than the game itself, I think!

The Death Minigames

Balloon Boy

Balloon Boy is a human-rendered animatronic character introduced in the video game Five Nights at Freddy's 2, which was released in 2014. In the game, Balloon Boy does not physically harm the player but interferes by disabling the flashlight, thereby making it easier for hostile animatronics to attack... read more

Did somebody order Chica the Duck Tape because you wanted to cover BB's mouth?

The way he looks at you with those eyes - those demonic eyes that say, "I am going to kill you."

The Sound of Mangle

In the second game, Mangle is creepy for her appearance and her static noise. In the third game, it's as scary as a jump scare because it's pretty loud, just saying.

Freddy's Sudden Appearance and Scream

The Noises and Sound Effects

Five Nights at Freddy's would be rubbish, boring, and difficult without noises and sound effects. You wouldn't know where Chica is when she's in the kitchen. It would be like being deaf and blind! In the other games, you wouldn't know where they are.

The Purple Guy

Poor guy. He's just rotted throughout his life and has been living in the shadows.

The Phone Calls on Nights 4 and 5

Fredbear's Role in the Bite of '87

I thought Mangle did it, but there are a lot of suspects, so I think Fredbear did it (or at least I think so).
