Nightmare Fuel / Five Nights at Tubbyland

Go To

Five Nights at Tubbyland:

  • The looks of the animatronics. Laa-Laa is missing her head revealing her endoskeleton. Dipsy has a red eye and his other eye socket is empty and it appears to be scratched. Tinky Winky has no legs whatsoever. Po is by far the worst, though. She has smashed eyes, and a constant Slasher Smile on her face. Even worse is the fact that in the second game she can still hear pretty well...
  • In the Christmas update, though he can't kill you and doesn't have a jumpscare, when Dipsy enters the office, he basically leans at you while twitching erratically making really creepy garbled noise all while he's staring at you with that one red eye and empty socket. It also doesn't help that he's draining the door power leaving you a sitting duck for Laa-Laa.
  • The jumpscares of the Tubbybots from the Christmas update got scarier. Highlights include Tinky Winky lunging at you and covering your screen completely. Laa-Laa suddenly jumping in from the left, picking you up and opening her mouth and lunging at you while you are in the air. And Po standing in the office, lunging at you and knocking over your entire desk along with shattering your computer before killing you.
  • PTLD-93's new jumpscare isn't so pretty either. You don't know when it is coming. You only know it will come. Then all of a sudden, his entire face covers the screen, glitching rapidly, and a noise that can only be described as a hellish scream combined with static plays along with it. Then it transports you back to the disclaimer. Even worse is that all of this happens in a split second.
  • The Dream Night. It isn't so bad actually, what with the Tubbybots being simply replaced with plushes of them. However, the Po Plush has eyes and a jaw; she looks normal on camera, but during her jumpscare, her eyes and lower jaw are gone. You may wonder... Where the hell did they go?

Five Nights at Tubbyland 2:

  • The second game has unholy things. Such as the fact that Noo Noo has a corpse inside of him, and that Po looks even worse for the wear. Her sound effects aren't any better. She whispers things such as "Are you still there?" Then there is the loud beeping sound every time she comes to your office. And the V2 versions of the original Tubbybots don't look any better then they used to, even if they are fixed they look very creepy. That, and Tinky V2's laughter is a bit goofy, but at the same time, it's...disturbingly offputting.
  • Just the fact that Po is blind, but still somehow navigates herself to your office and when she is in the hallway you can't move or use the smoke machine at all. And when you do...
  • Nightmare Night, it's creepy alone that every single animatronic is missing eyes, but the fact that every sound they make is reversed and distorted doesn't help either. Also, whenever they attack you it isn't an animated jumpscare, it's a close-up of their eyeless faces while some morse code plays in the background which translates to "forget"...
  • And let's not forget the jolly little Easter Egg that may occur when booting the game up. It shows a distorted, wide-eyed Po face, with extremely loud garble. If you look closely, you can see the words "TAKEN OVER" all over the image. This does make some sense, since PTLD-93 drove Po into causing the Custard Machine Incident...

Five Nights at Tubbyland 3: The End Game:

  • The third game is by far the creepiest, though. With the disturbing prototypes, The Original's absolutely twisted state, Noo-Noo having even more rows of teeth, Po looking absolutely decrepit, and PTLD-93 in general... that's just some of the stuff. It doesn't help that both Pos have their own creepy laughter when they're hunting you down....
  • The Night #6 Cutscene. It starts off somewhat normal with a red/yellow light covering a red background. Everything is the same for about ten seconds... Until a blood-soaked, frowning, empty Po suit appears out of nowhere. For another five seconds, it stays like that until it starts smiling at you. Then shortly after that.... SCREEEEEEEEE. Even worse is that this.... thing, is never brought up again. It only appears for this one time.
  • And now PTLD-93's in the previous games after the Christmas updates. Merry Christmas!

’’Tubbyland Archives Act 1’’:

  • Employee 3's death is made way more terrifying in the Night 5 phone call. As with better voice acting comes more tension and fear conveyed to the player
  • What happens to Employee 3 is already frightening enough but the night five mini game reveals another horrifying part in that Tinky Winky held him down as Noo-Noo killed him. It’s not just him watching though, all of the Tubbybots watched Noo-Noo as they killed Employee 3.
  • The animatronics aren't possessed, but Word of God confirms that they kill and stuff you into Noo Noo to harvest your flesh for currently unknown reasons.
