Jack-O-Moon is the Jack-O variant to the Daycare Attendant that made his debut in Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2.
Appearance[]
Jack-O-Moon, despite his name, is a recoloring of Sun; sharing the same body as him, albeit with a more scarecrow-esc appearance. His face has become a dark orange with yellow accents, with the darker side being a dark brown, and his sunrays have become a dark rust-like color. His torso and arms have become a mixture of a dark brown and gray, and his pants now look similar to that of a brown sack with multiple darker patches. The ribbon-like accessories found on his neck, waste, and around the bottom of his pant legs are now a dull green color, and the ribbons on his wrists have become a dull purple. His shoes have also changed to a matching purple coloration.
Jack-O-Moon's most notable feature is his face, being equipped with glowing orange and white eyes, as well as a large glowing mouth that resembles that of a traditional jack-o-lantern's mouth.
Gameplay[]
Jack-O-Moon appears as the primary antagonist of two levels in Help Wanted 2, being Captain Foxy's Log Ride and the hard-mode variant of the Carousel level.
Captain Foxy's Log Ride[]
Jack-O-Moon appears as the primary threat in Captain Foxy's Log Ride, appearing in a way that is reminiscent of Jack-O-Bonnie and Jack-O-Chica's appearances in Curse of Dreadbear's Pirate Ride level. In the level, multiple pirate Helpy cut-outs can be found pointing the way. If the player shoots them, the cut-out will flip around, leading the player down a hidden path where Jack-O-Moon awaits. In these hidden paths, multiple targets can be found that grant the player extra points, however Jack-O-Moon will be right alongside the targets. To prevent Jack-O-Moon from getting to the player, they must shoot the yellow square buttons to either shut a door on him, or turn on a large spotlight to get rid of him.
If the player gets too close to Jack-O-Moon, he will jumpscare them.
Carousel[]
Jack-O-Moon acts identically to Moon in the original Carousel level, with the only key difference being that Jack-O-Moon is more aggressive. Throughout the minigame, Jack-O-Moon will creep towards the player, laughing each time he appears. To keep him at bay, the player must shine the flashlight on his face until he falls over. With each part of the carousel that's reactivated during the game, Jack-O-Moon becomes more aggressive, appearing more frequently and occasionally hopping onto moving parts of the carousel to make getting rid of him harder. If the player fails to ward him off quickly enough, he will jumpscare them.

Trivia[]
- Jack-O-Moon is the first Jack-O variant to be made for a character that did not originate in the Clickteam games.
- He is also the first Jack-O variant to not be entirely warm-colored.
- Despite his name, Jack-O-Moon is a recolor of Sun, having sunrays in his statue, and lacking Moon's usual hat.
- However, the sunrays are retracted during gameplay, giving Jack-O-Moon an appearance closer to Moon.
- Jack-O-Moon's unique mouth is simply an emission texture, meaning the mouth that appears on Sun's model is still present and simply just difficult to see.
- However, the mouth is easily visible in Carousel, as Jack-O-Moon's mouth emission is not present in that level.
- All of Jack-O-Moon's voicelines are reused from Moon.
