Withered Freddy

Withered Freddy is a damaged, original version of the animatronic Freddy Fazbear who first appears in Five Nights at Freddy's 2. He is a major antagonist in the game, characterized by his broken suit, visible endoskeleton, and aggressive behavior, which stems from the animatronics being deactivated and stored before the new model's grand reopening. In addition to FNAF 2, he has appeared in other games and media as a digital recreation or an older, broken form of Freddy.
