The Nightmare S.T.A.F.F. Bots, or Nightmarionne Bots, are aggressive and abandoned S.T.A.F.F. Bot variants found in the underground areas of the Pizzaplex. They appear as minor antagonists in both Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach and Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2.
As their name implies, they are reminiscent of Nightmarionne.
Appearance[]
Nightmare Bots appear to have once been regular S.T.A.F.F. Bots, but have been altered. On top of being notably ditier and duller in color compared to their normal counterparts, they now have painted-on smiles with rows of small, sharp teeth. Their arms are dawned with black stripes, and their chest now holds the phrase "IN YOUR DREAMS". Their security variant is identical to them, with the only difference being the addition of the Security hat worn by Security Bots.
Behavior[]
Security Breach[]
The Nightmare Bots mainly function as Security S.T.A.F.F. in the sewer area, having identical behavior and movement patterns. However, a hostile group of Nightmare S.T.A.F.F. can be found at the bottom of a pit in the trash area, in which falling into said pit leads to them killing the player. Many Nightmare Bots can also be found stuck within the walls of the trash area, and piles of their heads can be found in the room filled with sticky-notes at the end of this area.
A group of Nightmarionne S.T.A.F.F. Bots are seen in Freddy's death cutscene present in the Disassemble Vanny and Redemption endings. In RUIN, a select few Nightmare S.T.A.F.F. Bot heads appear in the first course of the Monty Golf AR-Cade minigame.
Help Wanted 2[]
In the later nights of the Fizzy Faz levels, Fizz Bots whose orders go incomplete will turn into Nightmare variants before entering the player's room and jumpscaring them. On Fizzy Faz Night 5, all S.T.A.F.F. Bots are replaced with Nightmare Bots, and the player must use the room shutdown to prevent Nightmare Bots from entering their office. On top of this, a Nightmare Bot will jumpscare the player if they fail three orders.
The Worker Bots, now called Fizz Bots, appear in their own set of levels simply titled "Fizzy Faz". In these five levels, S.T.A.F.F. Bots found on the cameras will provide you with the ingredients for the various Fizzy Faz orders. In later versions of the levels, a Fizz Bot will come up to the window with a special order the player must complete before any others. Failure to do so will result in the Fizz Bot jumpscaring the player.
The Nightmarionne Bots also appear during the game's Faz-Force ending, in which Glitchtrap, after emerging from a recharge station, will summon a horde of them to surround the player before the screen cuts to black and transitions to the Mask Bot perspective.

Trivia[]
- An unused version of the Nightmarionne Bots can be found within the files, being a clean variant.
- A second in between of the clean variant and the regular dirty one can also be found, though this one is used in select areas featuring Nightmare Security Bots.
- Many believed that the Nightmarionne S.T.A.F.F. Bots were known as the "Alpha Z Group" due to their initial teaser in Freddy & Friends.
- It is still unknown as to what the phrase "Alpha Z Group" means.
- Prior to Help Wanted 2, the Nightmare Bots were the only S.T.A.F.F. Bots to hold lethal jumpscares.
- The Nightmarionne Bot's jumpscare scream was used as a placeholder for Jackie's jumpscare scream in Secret of the Mimic.
