History[]
Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location[]
Night 1[]
The player is introduced to Ballora on Night 1 via Handunit. Handunit describes Ballora as a kind and child-friendly animatronic who encourages children to exercise as well as eat pizza. The player is instructed by Handunit to check on Ballora using the light on the left side of the office the player is in. Once the player cannot see Ballora, Handunit informs them that in order for Ballora to come out of hiding the player must administer a controlled shock to Ballora to get her attention. After the player uses a controlled shock, they check on Ballora again using the light as instructed by Handunit. Once Ballora is visible, Handunit informs the player that all is well in Ballora Gallery and the player proceeds to check on the other animatronics.
Night 2[]
The player, as instructed by Handunit (this time with the "Angsty Teen" voice) once again, checks on Ballora using the light on the left side of the office. Just like in Night 1, Ballora won't be there and the player must use another controlled shock to bring her back to the stage. Once Ballora is on the stage again, the "Angsty Teen" voice will malfunction and Handunit's original voice will return to normal. After the player checks on the other animatronics, the player will have to head toward the Breaker Room to restart the power manually, due to the power having gone out. To reach the Breaker Room, the player will have to trek through Ballora Gallery with Ballora attempting to kill the player should she manage to catch them. To make it through Ballora Gallery without Ballora being able to catch the player, the latter must not make any noise while Ballora is near. One would know that Ballora is close by if they were to hear Ballora's music. The louder Ballora's theme song is, the closer in proximity to the player she is. Should Ballora catch the player however, the former would kill the latter resulting in a game over.
Night 3[]
Ballora is only seen during the beginning of Night 3, once Handunit instructs the player to check on her using the light as usual. Despite the fact that Ballora is deconstructed and being held piece by piece by her Minireenas, the Minireenas holding Ballora's parts are on Ballora's stage so Handunit doesn't suspect anything is wrong when you check on her, since technically she is on stage.
Night 4[]
When the player is captured by Funtime Foxy and taken to the scooping room, one would be able to see Ballora get her insides scooped out, which explains why her Minireenas attack you during Night 4 instead of Ballora herself.
Night 5[]
Real Ending[]
During Night 5, Ennard claims to be Ballora attempting to kill the player when Circus Baby is guiding the player to the Scooping Room. It is later revealed that Ennard was lying about being Ballora, and that Ballora had in fact been sent to the Scooping Room and gotten deconstructed to form Ennard, not unlike the rest of the animatronics, before the player had arrived to attempt to fix Circus Baby. Ballora's insides are fused together along with Funtime Freddy (and the Bonnie hand puppet), Funtime Foxy, and Circus Baby to ultimately create Ennard. Hence why in the Scooping Room one would be able to see Ballora's empty animatronic husk along with the rest of the other animatronic's former shells. Ennard gets scooped inside of the player, presumably bestowing Ballora's eyes.
Fake Ending[]
After the player enters the private room, against Circus Baby/Ennard's orders, the latter begins to pursue the former. It is revealed at this point that all of the animatronics formed together to get scooped inside of the player so that they could escape the pizzeria. After the player survives to 6:00 am, they get rescued by the cleanup crew and are able to go home. However, Ennard somehow manages to follow the player home, leaving the latter's fate unknown.
Custom Night[]
Ballora returns as a customizable animatronic enemy in the Custom Night update for Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location. If one were to play a preset with her active in the custom night, she would attack the player from either the right or left side of the office. In order for one to defend themselves against Ballora under these circumstances, they would have to listen carefully. Once her music is heard from either side, the player would have to close the respective door from which side the music was heard. Once certain presets with her active are successfully completed, she will ask you to save her a dance for another day.
Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator[]
While Ballora herself doesn't appear in this game, she returns as part of Ennard now under the alias of Molten Freddy. During the completion ending of Pizzeria Simulator, Molten Freddy is destroyed with any souls inhabiting the Funtime animatronics being set free, destroying Ballora. After this, she remains dead and only "returns" via fictional-fictional recreations of her.
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.
Currently, Ballora has twos skins in Five Nights at Freddy's AR: Special Delivery.
Other Media[]
Fazbear Frights[]
Room for One More[]
Ballora appears in one of Stanley's nightmares, he's dressed as a nurse and she forces Stanley, who's stuck on a dentist's chair and unable to move, to keep his mouth opened.
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 wearting them starts seeing Ballora and dancing with her.
Tales from the Pizzaplex[]
Cleithrophobia[]
A version of Ballora was created to act as the mascot of Freddy Fazbear's Mega Pizzaplex fitness venue "Ballora's Fitness and Flex".
Dittophobia[]
Rory briefly sees Ballora on stage as he's wandering around Circus Baby's Entertainment and Rental.
Physical Appearance[]
Out of all animatronics in the series, Ballora is likely the most human-like animatronic yet. Resembling an actual ballerina, she wears a blue bikini and a purple tutu decorated with golden orbs. She has pink, rosy cheeks with matching lipstick, blue hair, and blue nails. Her eyebrows are thin and colored in light-blue. She wears golden pearl-shaped earrings, and a pearl tiara atop her head, making her one of the most decorated characters in the series.
In most of her appearances in the game, Ballora stands in a pose with her hands above her head and has her eyes closed. However, her eyes have been shown occasionally. They look smaller than the other animatronic's eyes due to having a metal casing and pink irises, and her eyelids are blue-colored sporting long eyelashes as well.
As Arctic Ballora, her body is changed to be made out of ice, with numerous icicles across her body (with a large set of them on her head, chest, and pelvis to make a mock crown, frill, and skirt respectively), pink make-up on her face and chest, and blue marks on her cheeks.
As Clockwork Ballora, her body is changed to be covered in or made out of golden gears, with several larger ones appearing on her head, her shoulders, a huge one around her waist (forming a mock tutu), and joints. Pieces of her limbs, head and face, pelvis, and torso, meanwhile, are a brownish-black color with small gears marked on.
Personality[]
Ballora is very seductive and deadly, seemingly calm and composed. She also appears to be very talented at singing. Circus Baby says that 'Ballora never learns', which might imply that either Ballora does not like to play pretend or is not able to do so as well as Baby does. Ballora also seems to be very sadistic and taunting and is fearless of what the player thinks of her.

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.
- 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 is making 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 was based off Mrs. Afton.
- 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 and Funtime Foxy's endoskeletons and eyes are still present inside of Molten Freddy, however, neither she nor F. Foxy makes any indication that they are still active.
