“ | Why do you hide inside your walls, when there is music in my halls? All I see is an empty room, no more joy, an empty tomb. It's so good to sing all day, to dance, to spin, to fly away. | „ |
~ Ballora singing to her husband. |
“ | All I do is dance alone, but now I hear your flesh and bones. I roam these halls alone all day, but now you're here, friend and prey. | „ |
“ | Is someone there? I can hear someone creeping through my room... perhaps not... | „ |
“ | Save me a dance for another day, perhaps. | „ |
Ballora is the secondary antagonist of Five Nights at Freddy's Sister Location. Michael Afton encounters her on Night 2, where they must sneak through her room slowly. If the player hears music getting louder, they must stop, because Ballora is drawing near and will jumpscare them. She eventually becomes part of Ennard, just like the other Funtime animatronics.
History[]
Sister Location[]
She first appears inside her exhibit, and when Michael comes to view her in the second night. there, they must sneak through her room while avoiding being caught. If Michael hears Balloras music getting loud, he stops until it goes away. After that, Ballora is seen in Night 4, as her endoskeleton is scooped by the scooper. She becomes part of Ennard, along with Circus Baby, Funtime Freddy, and Funtime Foxy. They take over Mike's body to escape, but his skin decays, and they are forced into hiding.
Between Sister Location and Pizzeria Simulator[]
Somewhere between SL and FFPS, Ballora, just like Funtime Freddy, Bon-Bon, and Funtime Foxy, ejects Circus Baby out of Ennard. Funtime Freddy becomes the leader and creates a Freddy mask, changing Ennard to Molten Freddy. Henry finds Molten Freddy and gets a blueprint of him.
Pizzeria Simulator[]
Molten Freddy comes down to a new Freddy's location and plans to kill Michael Afton. 5 nights later, it turns out that the location was a trap made by Henry, who sets the "pizzeria" on fire. They (As a surprise to Henry) survive the fire and make it out, ready for the next round.
See main article Molten Freddy
Ultimate Custom Night[]
Ballora returns as a customizable animatronic enemy. She behaves mostly like she does in the Custom Night of Sister Location, however one would have to listen with especial caution, because she now disables all of the cameras and flickers the lights of the office before she prepares to attack.
Five Nights at Freddy's AR: Special Delivery[]
Ballora comes back in this game as an animatronic of the Fazbear Funtime Service. However, she behaves much differently compared to every other animatronic. When an encounter with her is triggered, the shock button will be replaced by two meters. One of them shows how close Ballora is to the player, the other one how much noise the player is making. If either meter is completely filled up, her jumpscare will be triggered. The only way to deactivate Ballora is by collecting all of the Minireenas that spawn with her.

Dance with Me[]
Kasey, after stealing a pair of novelty glasses from a woman who had just left Circus Baby's Pizza World, she decides to try them on, and starts seeing Ballora dancing and spinning far away from her. Ar she thinks she's just an hologram projected by the glasses. However, she later realizes that other people (such as her friends Jack and AJ) aren't able to see her even when they put on the glasses, and that Ballora seems to influence the elements around her, and therefore, she's real.
Furthermore, Ballora seems to get to her every time she commits a crime. Kasey decides to move to another city, thinking Ballora will not find her there, but after she steals a dress, she once again sees the animatronic ballerina, who is now right behind her.
Kasey decides to fix the problem by locating the woman she took the bag from, and returning the glasses to her. The woman decides to forgive Kasey, and invites her to her house; the woman then hands the glasses to her daughter, Isabella, who upon wearing them starts seeing Ballora and dancing with her.

Personality[]
in the real game, She is mischievous, sneaky and aggressive, and she tries to kill the player. She is most dangerous on Night 2 when the player has to sneak through her room. but when you think of her as a person, she is a leader and is very sophisticated, she has the most common sense out of all people/ ghosts she teams with.

Trivia[]
- It seems that after Ennard left Michael's corpse, it also left Ballora's eyes in his eye sockets, since when Michael is reanimated, he still has eyes.
- However these wasn't the case, as the remnants capable healed things. Thus, Michael Afton might have been possessing regenerate factor in these point, right after been injected with remnants through Scooper.
- Despite not being seen, Ballora actually can contort her body and crawls with her back like a spider in the second night. This can be evident as Ballora jump scares the player upside down.
- Despite being a kids attraction, Ballora has an extremely revealing outfit, with the top of her body being almost nude.
- It is theorized that she is possessed by William Afton's wife.
- However, this might be unlikely, since according to the canon, she seems to not have any kind of affection towards Circus Baby and Michael, the children of William. Although, she does stand down when Baby tells her that Michael is going to help them, and doesn't attack Michael when he is leaving her auditorium, even if he makes a lot of noise.
- This theory is supported by the secret display of the Afton Family in Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach, where the mother is a S.T.A.F.F. bot resembling Ballora.
- That said, it's possible she could be parallel and representation, based on late Mrs Afton behavior.
- It is possible she was the only Funtime animatronic that didn't want to join the plan that was creating Ennard. The way Baby speaks in Night 4 ("Ballora never learns, but I do") seems to hint that.
- While the insanity ending in Pizzeria Simulator shows that her, Bon-Bon, and Funtime Foxy's endoskeletons and eyes are still present inside of Molten Freddy, however, neither she, Bon-Bon, nor Funtime Foxy makes any indication that they are still active, but overshadowed by Funtime Freddy being the most active hivemind leader.
