Balloon Boy, often shortened to BB, was introduced in Five Nights at Freddy's 2 in 2014, created by Scott Cawthon. The balloon holding animatronic became memorable for his repeated hello and hi voice lines and his giggling, which players learned to dread during the night shift. Clips of the greeting spread through FNAF fan videos, remixes and soundboards, where the line was detached from gameplay and reused as shorthand for a cute threat. It remains popular because even new listeners hear the tension between innocence and danger.

Balloon Boy saying hello in Five Nights at Freddy's 2, the cheerful animatronic greeting players use for jumpscare edits, memes and prank moments.
This is Balloon Boy's short hello from Five Nights at Freddy's 2, delivered in a high, childlike synthetic voice that sounds sweet at first and unsettling a second later. In the game the animatronic slips into the office and disables the flashlight, leaving the player exposed, so that single greeting became a warning sign for fans. Out of context the clip works as a creepy cute jump scare in miniature, a bright greeting that instantly flips a normal scene into horror comedy because listeners who know FNAF expect trouble to follow it.
