Karen is a supporting antagonist of the Five Nights at The Krusty Krab franchise, serving as a major antagonist in Five Nights at The Chum Bucket and a minor antagonist in Five Nights at The Krusty Krab: Chapter 3.
Appearance[]
Five Nights at The Chum Bucket[]
According to the creator, Dakota Wood (KentuckyFriedBlaziken), Karen uses the same model as Sandy Cheeks. Though this is true, Sandy and Karen are a bit different, the difference being that Karen has noticeable electrical green waves revolving around her.
Five Nights at The Krusty Krab: Chapter 3[]
Karen does not appear physically, but rather instead appears in the pop-up ads in "mother-in-law" mode.
Behavior[]
Five Nights at The Chum Bucket[]
Karen will roam the Chum Bucket, heading to the office. Whenever Karen manifests in a room, the camera in that room will malfunction, and only static will be visible. Players must close the right door when they see static in the Right Hall, as Karen does not appear in the door and Karen will appear and kill you if the player doesn't do so. You can also tell if Karen is in the office because it won’t let you into the camera.
Karen's usual route is Camera 5, Camera 3, the Meat Factory, the Stairs, and near the office.
Five Nights at The Krusty Krab: Chapter 3[]
Karen will attempt to hack Sandy Cheeks. You can see how much progress she's made with the bar in her pop-up ads. The player will need to close these out to prevent her from hacking Sandy. Should the player fail, the reactor core instantly shuts down and Sandy, after being hacked by Karen, will jumpscare the player.
Trivia[]
- In Five Nights at The Chum Bucket, similar to Squidward, once Karen is guaranteed to kill the player, SpongeBob, Mr. Krabs, and Patrick will, if they're seen right outside the office, sink their posture seconds before the jumpscare, yet they can still manage to attack the player before Karen or Squidward does and technically, she is the only new animatronic in the game, even though mostly all the animatronics could be defined "new" as well as they have all been "upgraded", Karen and Sandy both share the same model and jump-scare animation, on Camera 3, you can see (for a split second) Karen's electrical waves. The player can also physically see her for a frame in the Meat Factory's camera, Karen appears in the show as a computer made by Plankton to be his wife.
- Her behavior in Five Nights at The Chum Bucket is similar to The Redman's mechanic in ONAF 1 and Freddy's mechanic in FNAF 1 while her mechanic in Five Nights at The Krusty Krab: Chapter 3 is similar to The Redman's mechanic in ONAF 2, except that she doesn't kill you if the bar reaches fully.
- In Five Nights at The Krusty Krab: Chapter 3, Karen hacking Sandy is a callback to how Karen used the same model as Sandy for her body in Five Nights at The Chum Bucket, she is the only character to never physically appear in the game, Karen's pop ups always say a random SpongeBob quote.
