Let me put you back together... then take you apart all over again.
~ Nightmare Fredbear.
We know who our friends are, and you are not one of them.
~ Nightmare Fredbear's death quote from Ultimate Custom Night.
I assure you, I am very real.
~ Nightmare Fredbear.

Nightmare Fredbear is a major antagonist in the Five Nights at Freddy's franchise, serving as the main antagonist of Five Nights at Freddy's 4 and a supporting antagonist in both Ultimate Custom Night and Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted.

He is a Nightmare animatronic that haunts Michael Afton, replacing all of the animatronics in Night 5 and acting as boss fight. This may be due to his real-life counterpart being responsible for The Bite of '83, which had him bite down on the Crying Child, Michael's younger brother.

He is voiced by Zach Hoffman.

Biography[]

Five Nights at Freddy's 4[]

In Night 5, all of the nightmare animatronics mysteriously disappear, with Nightmare Fredbear appearing everywhere they do, and doing each of their jobs, however, as there is only one of him, he is the only threat. However, he is quicker, and more difficult to get rid of constantly laughing sadistically throughout the night.

After the night is completed, the next minigame shows four bullies, Michael Afton and his friends, picking on the former's sibling. Then, as a cruel joke, they put the child's head in the mouth of the Fredbear animatronic, causing it to be unable to sing. The child's head became trapped between the second row of teeth in the animatronic, and, as the jaw slowly clamped down on his head, the bullies laughed. Their laughing soon turned into horror, as Fredbear's jaw suddenly broke through the child's fragile skull.

On Night 6, at exactly 4 am, all of the animatronics disappear, and are once again replaced with Nightmare Fredbear, where he acts the same as in Night 5.

Ultimate Custom Night[]

Nightmare Fredbear returns as a customizable enemy in the game Ultimate Custom Night. He is invisible to the cameras and thus, impossible to keep track of. Instead, the player must pay attention to the left door. If the player sees his glowing red eyes and/or hears his laugh, they must close the left door and wait until they hear a thud to open the door again. His mechanic mirrors Nightmare's.

Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted[]

Nightmare Fredbear returns in the Night Terrors level, his level being identical to his appearance in Five Nights at Freddy's 4.

Appearance[]

Nightmare Fredbear is a golden bear with a purple hat and bowtie. Just like the other animatronics, he is extremely withered. He has a second mouth on his chest. He has teeth that are extremely similar to Nightmare Chica.

This time, there's more than an illusion to fear.

Trivia[]

  • In the teaser image that appeared to be him, the "name" source code on the website (at the time) was "gsfecfbs", if decrypted, the words "Fredbear" appears, confirming that the animatronic in the image was, indeed, Fredbear.
  • People have said to have seen a pair of eyes in between his mouth that seem to belong to The Puppet.
  • If the teaser image of him is brightened, two words "Or me?" can be seen.
    • In addition to that, the words "Pro [blacked out] Me" can be seen next to his stomach. Some fans believe it to say "Protect Me", "Probably Me", or "Property of Me".
  • Fredbear was first mentioned in the second game, with Phone Guy mentioning Fredbear's Family Diner on Night 5.
  • There is a dark version of Nightmare Fredbear, known simply as Nightmare.
  • At first it was assumed that Nightmare Fredbear was haunting the Crying Child. However, in the tie-in book Five Nights at Freddy's: Survival Logbook, its revealed that Mike was actually the one suffering from these nightmares.
    • One theory states that Michael, after witnessing Fredbear killing his little brother due to him, was left traumatized and filled with guilt. This may explain why Nightmare Fredbear replaces every other Nightmare animatronic, and also being the second hardest to survive against (behind only Nightmare), because Fredbear has become Michael's greatest fear, or that Nightmare Fredbear represents the Crying Child seeking vengeance for killing him.
    • There is also the theory that the Crying Child is indeed Nightmare Fredbear, as a form he've taken to torment his brother as revenge.
  • If his laugh is sped up, it is actually the laughing of an older boy, although some theorists have stated it is a child crying.
  • Interesting, Nightmare Fredbear's voice in Ultimate Custom Night seems to consist of both a deep guttural voice and a high-pitched childlike voice.
