13Yeah, we may be having some bad dreams, but why not take our minds off that with a good laugh?
14----

16* As unsettling as the game's "cover" image is, the fact that Nightmare Freddy is [[VisualPun holding up four fingers]] is pretty amusing.
17* Nightmare Foxy's appearance in the closet can be off-putting at first... but the fact that he doesn't attack when the protagonist is right in front of him implies he's just hanging out, being chill. That's pretty hilarious. For bonus immature humor, after the first game raised questions about Foxy's gender, we can now make jokes that [[VisualPun Foxy is in the closet.]]
18** The best part is that when you do catch him like that, he just stops partway into lunging at you and just sits there. Even his screeching cuts off because it seems like ''you'' startled ''him'' after he psyched himself up.
19** Then, of course, there's the fact that averting his threat comes from closing the doors on him when you go to the closet. Something is great about the fact he just puts up with it. Imagine a stunned Foxy thinking "Wait, did he just...?"
20** Even funnier: Keep the closet doors closed long enough at him and then light up the closet; if you've waited long enough, then you'll see that Nightmare Foxy has turned into a Foxy plushie!
21*** Possibly, you hit him ''so freaking hard'' that he turned into a plush.
22** Perhaps the funniest part of all is that Nightmare Foxy is the single easiest enemy in the series to cut off mid-kill. Just slam the closet in his face as he's doing his JumpScare from the closet ''with his nose sticking out''.
23*** Not quite true. The closet JumpScare is the last phase in his pattern before he comes out and kills you. Still, the fact that you can cut him off is amusing.
24* Oh, and guess what? Nightmare Freddy is on the bed. While that would normally be terrifying (and is), a quick pause at his jumpscare reveals that he's ''on his knees''.
25* Guess what got a nightmare form? ''The cupcake.'' And it's a threat in this game too! [[https://youtu.be/Sw3dX1WBdbg?t=173 It has to be seen to be believed.]]
26** The mere thought of it is so absurd that it used to be the page image.
27** What's so great is the implication it gives. The other nightmare animatronics will lunge at you, while [[LazyBum Nightmare Chica is too lazy (or too fat) to walk into the room herself]], so she just throws her cupcake at you.
28*** Even more funny when you take the last few words seriously and imagine that Nightmare Chica ''literally throws it across the room''.
29** For some [[FridgeBrilliance Fridge]]... Hilarity(?), consider this: these Nightmares are manifestations of the fear the protagonist felt towards the characrers. That fact may not be funny on its own until you realize this means the protagonist (who, mind you, is implied to be a grown adult through the ''Survival Logbook'') was '''afraid of a cupcake'''. In life, one could imagine him staring at it uneasily as it simply sits on the table in front of him, perhaps thinking something along the lines of "[[WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants It's just sitting there...]] '''[[MemeticMutation menacingly]]'''."
30* While it's also terrifying, [[http://i.imgur.com/gS3T9q3.png Nightmare Fredbear's appearance on Night 5]] when he becomes the main threat is kind of... amusing at the same time, as he resembles a giant, fat cake, or a cheeseburger.
31* What? Oh, no no no no no... Did you really think the [[RunningGag nose-honk]] EasterEgg would be gone? Don't worry! [[OnceAnEpisode It's still here]]! This time, you have to click on the nose of your Freddy plushie. Not too much, though. Nightmare Foxy doesn't like it.
32** To be honest, Nightmare Foxy attacking you because of you honking the nose constantly is pretty funny in and of itself. It's almost as if Foxy came out of the closet to say "Shut up, SHUT UP, '''[[BigShutUp SHUT UP!]]'''"
33*** He will even do this on Night 5, despite Nightmare Fredbear. And he still does it after 4 P.M. on Nights 6, 7, and 8. You can imagine Nightmare Foxy thinking, "I don't care if my boss is supposed to kill this kid, ''[[SeriousBusiness I'll make sure he never honks that fucking nose again!]]''"
34*** The wiki has postulated that the actual cause is looking at your bed with your flashlight for more than 15 seconds at a time. Which means that Foxy is once again here to enforce NoFairCheating on Night 1.
35* Speaking of Nightmare Freddy, the mini-Freddies cackling on your bed look more like they're planning some kind of ZanyScheme.
36* Though hard to spot at first, Nightmare Bonnie's image in the Extras section of the game appears to feature him with '''''derp eyes''''', completely ruining the horror effect.
37** He also looks like he has a goofy smile, and the way he's looking at you makes it look like he told a bad joke and is waiting for a reaction.
38** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nMjiv7Urjvg (this face was worth the 8 dollars)]]
39* Look at the lamp during Nightmare Freddy's bed jumpscare: there's no bedside table for it to stand on. It's floating in mid-air!
40* Yes, the noise Nightmare makes is horrifying... Until you realize it sounds like a distorted WesternAnimation/{{Tarzan}} yell.
41* One of the children refers to the Spring Bonnie plushie as a "finger trap," up to the point of actually being able to pinch the kid's hand. Evidently, the makers of the plush were paying attention to detail...
42** On that note, another child is ''completely apathetic'' to the fact that if you die while on duty, Fazbear Entertainment just hides your body and never tells anybody. This means Fazbear Entertainment is so poor at hiding their corrupt business policies they don't even bother to say otherwise... and yet ''nobody cares.'' Not until the Bite, anyways.
43* Just before the brother and his buddies accidentally cause the Bite of '83, they say, "Hey, guys! I think the little man wants to give Fredbear a big kiss!"
44* Some people take the fact that you shave two hours off of your play time by winning Plushtrap's game to mean [[FluffyTheTerrible "Plushtrap sits there and tells the other nightmares to screw off for two hours straight."]]
45** [[http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/freddy-fazbears-pizza/images/6/6d/Fnaf_4_plushtrap_win_screen.png/revision/latest?cb=20150724070945 The pose Plushtrap makes when you win the minigame]] makes it look like he's trying to recover from [[GroinAttack a kick in the ouchy bits.]]
46* While [[http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/freddy-fazbears-pizza/images/0/02/NightmarionneBrightened.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20151031062016 this brightened image of Nightmarionne's death screen]] is downright terrifying at first, look closely and you'll notice that he's cross-eyed. Add the fact that his eyes are all bloodshot and huge, and it almost looks like he's tripping balls.
47* Although it was terrifying to most people, Balloon Boy being given the Nightmare treatment was absurd to some; still having the pristine, bright toy design with teeth, claws, and red eyes, making him look very out of place compared to the other Nightmares. That is, until you see [[http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/freddy-fazbears-pizza/images/b/b6/Nightmare_bb_scare.gif/revision/latest?cb=20151031184116 him]] [[JumpScare up close and personal]], [[UncannyValley and he gets downright ugly.]]
48* The complete lack of subtlety in the Nightmare animatronics' designs is amusing in itself. One is led to believe that this is an intentional {{Flanderization}} of the beloved antagonists of the previous games. After TheReveal, the flanderizing makes a whole lot more sense, [[HarsherInHindsight especially since the protagonist, who's heavily implied to be Michael Afton, has had more than one harsh experience when it comes to animatronics]].
49* While [[http://i.imgur.com/aiqky9Z.jpg this image]] of Nightmarionne is quite terrifying, upon closer examination, it almost looks like he's posing, as if dramatically presenting himself to the camera. Couple that with his open mouth and you can easily imagine that he's saying something along the lines of "I'M BACK, BITCHES!"
