Physical Appearance[]
The first notable difference is her color designs being completely orange in Halloween-style. Her skin color is dark golden rather than yellow. In place of her normal endoskeleton eyes, the eye sockets are quite brightly glowing orange, much like a jack o'lantern. A similar effect appears to have been applied to Jack-O-Chica's overall body, as it can be seen very prevalently around her shoulder sockets and tears from her stomach. Her endoskeleton head is entirely absent while her endoskeleton teeth remain. If one looks closely, they can see that her endoskeleton chest is also absent. Few glowing yellow tints can be seen from her teeth and mouth, allowing her endoskeleton jaw to glow in a slightly dimmed light. The only other noticeable difference is that Jack-O-Chica's feet and lower legs are slightly darker in color than that of Nightmare Chica's. The color of her beak is also darker. The texture for Jack-O-Chica's suit is slightly smoother with a lack of nearly-visible scratches, unlike Nightmare Chica. Her bib is the only feature that remains unchanged.
A large green Jack o'lantern serves as a replacement for Nightmare Chica's cupcake. Interestingly, her Jack o'lantern is nearly identical to the actual pumpkin from the Five Nights at Freddy's 3 Halloween update where it can be seen on The Office desk. It has triangular eye-sockets with round eyes emitting a white glow and a nose like that of a stereotypical Jack-o'lantern, as well as a typical zig-zag mouth and an orange glow emitted from the inside.
In Ultimate Custom Night, her appearance remains the same, but she is missing her third row of teeth.
In Five Nights at Freddy’s: Help Wanted, Jack-O-Chica's design remains the same and mostly unchanged. The only new addition is that she is missing most of her wires around her body.
In Five Nights at Freddy’s AR: Special Delivery, Jack-O-Chica's design still remains the same but the only change that she received is to her glow in which is now red instead of orange.
Personality[]
Based on her quotes from Ultimate Custom Night, Jack-O-Chica is cold-hearted and ruthless. She is also shown to have a vengeful, yet mocking disposition. Her voice is low-pitched and edited with television-like static noises.
In Five Nights at Freddy's AR: Special Delivery, Jack-O-Chica's personality is the same; however, she is more aggressive, ruthless, and even sadistic when communicating. As seen from her quotes when defeated, she is also a bit of a sore loser.
Functionality[]
Unlike other Nightmare Animatronics, Jack-O-Chica (as well as the other Jack-O's) is an in-universe character made for the VR Games, not physically existing.
