Phantom Puppet

Phantom Puppet is a minor antagonist in Five Nights at Freddy's 3, and one of the six phantom animatronics. It is a hallucination of a burnt and damaged Puppet. The Phantom Puppet essentially has the same model as its Five Nights at Freddy's 2 incarnation, though its body is charred and its eyes have small white pupils, much like the other phantoms. Its charred appearance may foreshadow the torching of the horror attraction. The Phantom Puppet appears briefly in CAM 08, and then in the Office, depending on whether the player changes the monitor view before lowering it. When the player views a normal, non-burnt Puppet in CAM 08, the Phantom Puppet appears in the office, blocking the player's vision and making a weird, “computer-like” noise. It prevents the use of the monitor and maintenance panel and stays in the office for approximately 17 seconds, allowing Springtrap to get closer to the player. Phantom Puppet does not have a direct jumpscare, but it can work with Springtrap to increase the difficulty for the player.
