19Jackie Springs Out From Every Corner
The Jack-In-The-Box Animatronic Will Stop At Nothing
Of all the animatronics inFNAF: Secret of the Mimic,Jackie was the most thoroughly revealedprior to release, as she has been shown in the largest amount of promotional material. In fact, the very first teaser trailer forSecret of the Mimicfocused entirely on her slowly coming out of her box.
Since she has made an appearance in one otherFNAFgame,Help Wanted 2, her design is much more familiar. Herlong arms and clown stylingcertainly make her memorable, especially with her glowing yellow eyes.
Jackie appeared as a teaser in the VR gameHelp Wanted 2to promote the release ofSecret of the Mimic.
Jackie is the most visually striking of all the animatronics and is thefirst major antagonistinSecret of the Mimic.Jackie spends most of her screentime chasing the player throughout the facility, announcing that it’s “time to play.”
18An Elephant Mascot Stalking The Facility’s Halls
The First Mascot Enemy Players Encounter

Five Nights at Freddy’s 2 debuted its first teaser trailer, confirming the appearance of several animatronics that are both new and returning.
Visually, the Elephant is a human-sized animatronic witha green jester costume and a jaunty clown hat on its headthat roams around the facility. The elephant’s bulging eyes make it a terrifying entity to encounter when it breaks out of its enclosure early in the game.
17Sharpay The Poodle Is A Skilled Barber
But Don’t Let Her Give You A Haircut
Aside from the elephant, Sharpay the dog mascot is the only other animatronic that players are guaranteed to see when they playSecret of the Mimic.She boasts atoothy grin and wide eyes, and looks ready to pounce at the first opportunity.
Don’t be fooled by Sharpay’s appearance: though the default color and tuft of hair make her look like a lion, her design is actually based on the poodle breed.
In fact, Sharpay’s name is most likely a reference to the Shar Pei breed of dog, despite her appearance.
Like the elephant mascot, Sharpay’s first franchise appearance was in thegame files forSecurity Breach: Ruin,where she was firstlinked to the Mimic.
InSecret of the Mimic,Sharpay is a barber who acts as themascot forSharpay’s Salon,though players might want to consider getting their haircuts from someone who doesn’t want to tear them apart.

After All, It Might Be Your Last
Thisdopey-faced dog mascotwears a big purple bowtie and a party hat, and has its long tongue lolling out of its uneven-toothed snout. The resulting design is one no child would want near them on their birthday (or any other day of the year).

When you see these long-lashed eyes staring at you, it might be time to turn and run in the other direction.
15The Penguin Mascot Is One Of The Rarest Encounters
A Deceptively Friendly Looking Character
The new Penguin suit has a surprisingly appealing look andisn’t nearly as unsettling as some of the other designs inFNAF.The penguin has its beak open in a wide (tooth-less) smile, sports a short human-like haircut, and wears cat-eye glasses that make it look like a bird-like grandmother.
Fans weren’t sure what kind of bird this mascot was supposed to be at first, but in-game files reveal it to be a penguin.
If you want to experience the Penguin for yourself, it’s most likely to spawn at the Retail Showroom.
Looks can be deceiving, though, as this character is most definitely not friendly. Luckily, you might not even see the Penguin during your playthrough, as it’sone of the rarest encounters in the game.
14The Lion Mascot Looks Like A School Bully
Stay Out Of Reach Of Its Sharp Claws
The Lion mascot is another rare encounter inSecret of the Mimic.This character has sharp claws, a toothy smile, and scraggly whiskers. It wears a varsity jacket, giving it thegenerally ominous appearance of a high-school bully.
One of the Lion mascot’s variants seems to be a reference to theLion Kingvillain, Scar.
Although the lion appeared in the secret ending of theRuinDLC, it has a very different look inSecret of the Mimic.The only way fans were able to recognize it was from thedistinct jacket it wears in both games.
13Hedgehog Hudgie Is A Common Encounter
It’s Hard To Tell What Animal This Strange Being is Meant To Be
Hedgehog Hudgie, despite what its appearance suggests, is supposed to resemble a hedgehog. Although the lines down its stomach and bushy bunch of hairelicit a vaguely hedgehog-like feel, the mascot looks more like a tired seal.
FNAF Deserves A Better Villain, & Secret Of The Mimic Is The Perfect Place To Solidify One
Five Nights at Freddy’s needs to establish a better villain, and so far the Mimic has been a lackluster antagonist, but one game can fix that.
Regardless of what animal it is, players should get used to seeing it around Murray’s Costume Manor, where it’squite a common enemy. The character is a mascot for the candy company Hudgies, and it seems even the game is confused about what it is—in game files, it’s referred to alternatively as Harry and Henry.
12Lyrical Lemur Has Many Faces
All Its Forms Are Equally Disturbing
The Lyrical Lemur isone of the animatronic mascotsthat can be found roaming the halls ofFNAF: Secret of the Mimic.Although all the mascots have several color variants, the lemur has some of the most strikingly different versions.
The mascot can appear in a dark cyan, dressed as a mime, or vibing out as a hippie with hooded eyelids. No matter which version you encounter,you won’t want that creepy, empty-eyed smile coming anywhere near you.
11Swing Bee Is Part Of The Welcome Committee
Welcome, And Enjoy The Show
Despite her name, Swing Bee might look like a bee, a ladybug, or a caterpillar-esque bug. The character, which acts as the mascot for a honey company called Swing Bee Honey, retains anopen-mouthed, wide-eyed stare in all three forms.

10The Jester Has More Tricks Than Treats
There’s Nothing Funny About This Jokester
The Jester is one of the only non-animal mascots inSecret of the Miami,though some have speculated that he’s supposed to be modeled after a mouse or rabbit. The character is the face of the Jest Oat Cereal brand, which isknown for including prank gifts in its boxes.
The smiling jester is dressed as its name implies, wearing a diamond-print jester outfit with a frilled neck, and a hat with two bells that comes down over its sunken yellow eyes. Aclown-like nosecompletes the look of the perilous prankster.
