Glitchtrap Costume
Bring the digital virus of Five Nights at Freddy's to life.
Glitchtrap is the eerie, digital virus manifestation of William Afton from Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted. Fans choose this costume for its deeply unsettling, vintage mascot aesthetic that stands out from the classic animatronics. The look consists of a stitched golden-brown rabbit suit, a purple star-patterned vest, a matching bow tie, and a wide-eyed, creepy grin.

How to put it together
- 1
Put on the base golden-yellow jumpsuit or matching sweat suit.
- 2
Layer the purple star-patterned vest over the jumpsuit, buttoning it up the front.
- 3
Fasten the purple bow tie securely around your neck, resting it just above the vest.
- 4
Pull on the white cartoon mascot gloves, ensuring they tuck into the sleeves of the jumpsuit.
- 5
Put on the Glitchtrap rabbit mask, adjusting the eye holes for maximum visibility.
- 6
Add faux stitching details to the suit using a black fabric marker if your base suit lacks them.
Makeup & hair
No makeup or hair styling is required if you are using a full mascot mask. If using a half-mask, paint the exposed skin around your eyes black to blend into the mask's eye sockets.
