Humans

    The Night Guard 

The protagonist of the game; a night guard who recently joined Doug and Rachel's, only to end up in over his head once the animatronics start coming after him.


  • Action Survivor: Survives 5 nights with six malicious animatronics coming for his head!
  • Too Dumb to Live: Remind us again why this guy keeps coming back to a job that threatens to get him killed for five days? At least it's somewhat justified by Night 5, in which he overhears a phone call from Phone Guy to the Manager, revealing some... interesting information that the police might like to hear...

    Phone Guy 

This game's version of Phone Guy, who (like his FNaF counterpart) gives you tips on how to survive and tidbits about the story.


  • Big Bad Friend: It's revealed he sabotaged Freddy Fazbear's Pizza and is feeding you lies regarding the game's backstory. If that wasn't bad enough, it's also implied he's the Purple Guy!
  • Is This Thing Still On?: Accidentally calls you while on the phone with somebody else during Night 3. He also does this for the entirety of his Night 5 phone call.
  • Mr. Exposition: He's your sole source of information on the game's plot, aside from the newspaper clippings on the wall.
  • Undying Loyalty: Unlike his FNaF counterpart, averted; he calls Doug and Rachel's a "hellhole", and hates it "in many ways you probably can't imagine". Possibly played straight, though, as the Night 5 Phone Call implies that he's working with the manager to help Doug and Rachel's get ahead of Freddy Fazbear's Pizza... by any means necessary.
  • Unreliable Expositor: Turns out he's in league with the Manager, and admits (though not intentionally) that he has you "tangled in [his] strings", so it's likely that what a lot of what he's saying is false.

    The Manager/Phil 

The manager of Doug and Rachel's. He's gone missing recently, and he doesn't really want to be attached to the place anymore.


  • The Ghost: You never see or hear from him in gameplay, but you hear a lot about him from Phone Guy.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: His disappearance is likely due to his guilt over letting the Purple Guy kill kids just to get Freddy Fazbear's closed down and make his restaurant more popular.

Animatronics

    In General 

The amazing animatronics from Doug and Rachel's. They tend to wander a bit at night.


  • Alliterative Name: Like their FNaF counterparts, all of them have these.
  • A.I. Is a Crapshoot: They're just as murderous as their FNaF counterparts. Justified, as the Night 3 phone call implies that they were fitted with the endoskeletons from Freddy Fazbear's Pizza.
  • Glowing Mechanical Eyes: All of them have these once they leave the stage. It's one of the easier ways to locate them, especially in the dimmer Hard Mode.
  • Hostile Animatronics: To the exact same degree as their FNaF counterparts.

    Rachel the Rabbit

One of the faces of the restaurant, alongside Doug the Dog.
  • Alliterative Name: Rachel the Rabbit.
  • Big Bad: Well, the game is named after her... Ultimately subverted; she's not as menacing as The Thing, and she isn't as evil as the Manager and Phone Guy.
  • Hair-Raising Hare: She's a homicidal robot bunny. It comes with the territory.
  • Nested Mouths: You can see her endoskeleton through her mouth (as shown in the picture to the right), making her look like something out of Alien.
  • The Smurfette Principle: The only animatronic in the game to be female.

    Doug the Dog

One of the faces of the restaurant, alongside Rachel the Rabbit.
  • Alliterative Name: Doug the Dog.
  • Angry Guard Dog: Certainly acts like one, considering how aggressive he is.
  • Megaton Punch: Does this during one of his killing animations. Considering how powerful the animatronics are, his punch could probably cave in your skull.

    Pete the Pig 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/desktop_7_11_2016_11_40_04_am_574.png
One of the musicians in the animatronic band at Doug and Rachel's.

    Bane the Bull 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/desktop_7_11_2016_11_39_36_am_189.png
Another one of the musicians in the animatronic band at Doug and Rachel's.

    Ray the Raccoon 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/desktop_7_11_2016_11_40_06_am_419.png
A raccoon animatronic that is stationed in a little hut away from the rest of the animatronics.
  • Alliterative Name: Ray the Raccoon.
  • Attention Whore: If you don't look at him enough, you're not gonna have a good time.
  • Cutting the Knot: Rather than roam around the building and wait to jump you, he bum-rushes you if you don't pay enough attention to him, like Foxy from the FNaF games.
  • Expy: Ray is essentially Foxy as an Old West-style bandit instead of a pirate; a decaying, out-of-service animatronic with his own separate space, a leaner build, and a preference for running towards the player's office, in sharp contrast to the rest of the mascots.
  • Lean and Mean: He's noticeably the tallest and skinniest animatronic in the game.
  • Rascally Raccoon: Ray's design is meant to evoke this, being modelled after a stereotypical outlaw from the Old West complete with a cowboy hat, a red bandanna, a bandolier around the waist, leather chaps, and facial stripes playing the role of a domino mask.

Spoiler Characters (WARNING: SPOILERS ARE UNMARKED)

    The Thing 

https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/desktop_7_11_2016_11_39_39_am_269.png
This abomination is what lurks within the coffin in the back room. It hides behind curtains, and requires constant attention to keep him from jumping you, like the Puppet from Five Nights at Freddy's 2.

    Shadow Rachel 

A strange entity that resembles a completely black version of Rachel, with bright-white eyes and teeth. She randomly appears in the back room.
