History
Five Nights at Freddy's 4
The Freddles only appear in Five Nights at Freddy's 4 with a small role. Their job is to summon Nightmare Freddy to murder the protagonist.
Little is known about them, but it is assumed that they work for Nightmare Freddy. It can also be speculated that they are in some way the same entity as Nightmare Freddy, and simply need to combine in order to turn strong enough to kill the protagonist.
Ultimate Custom Night
Freddles appear in the Ultimate Custom Night. They will appear in random parts of the Office and must be scared away using a flashlight. If too many Freddles gather, it will summon Nightmare Freddy to attack the player.

Curse of Dreadbear
The Freddles appear in the minigame Build-A-Mangle where, for the first time, they act independently from Nightmare Freddy. They will appear on the conveyor belt, and must be shocked to prevent them from appearing on the player's face and block his view.
