"It hurts..."

- Giygas Giygas is the secondary antagonist of Week 6. He forcefully takes over for Senpai for the week's final track, Thorns.

Giygas has the biggest sprite sheet in Friday Night Funkin'.

Appearance
Giygas appears as a pixelated ghastly specter. His form takes the shape of a grotesque floating red face surrounded by a darker red aura. His face is depicted in an unsettlingly realistic fashion with an expression that displays immense pain. Giygas is rather glitchy as all of his movements are erratic and cause brief afterimages of himself to appear.

Story
Long ago, a victim of Daddy Dearest was forcefully trapped within the confines of a video game. The circumstances of why this happened are currently unknown. There was no way out for this mysterious victim, leaving the hopeless individual stuck in the depths of the game's coding as a glitch of sorts. He had no choice but to lay in waiting for an opportunity to escape.

An unknown period of time has passed, until one day, Boyfriend and Girlfriend were sent inside her dating simulator game, the very same one Spirit was trapped in. Boyfriend is soon challenged by Senpai for Girlfriend's love, but Boyfriend emerges victorious, quickly making the him drop his gentlemanly façade.

After having been bested twice, Spirit seizes the opportunity and gruesomely bursts out of Senpai's face, causing the game's world to appear black, barren and bleak. Finally showing himself within the presence of other living people after so long, Spirit reveals some unsettling information to the two: he knows Girlfriend, he knows about her vicious father and he most definitely knows that he is not the only one to have suffered by his hands.

With the final track, Spirit plans to defeat Boyfriend and take both his and Girlfriend's bodies for himself. That way, he can finally escape the game and begin enacting revenge against Daddy Dearest. However, he's fully aware nor does he seem to care that his freedom will be at the two's expense, leaving them trapped in the game in his place.

Trivia

 * Despite being in the same week and bursting out of him, Spirit is considered to be a separate entity from Senpai: Senpai is just an AI that's part of the game's programming while Spirit is self-aware with ties to the world outside of Girlfriend's dating sim game.
 * Oddly though, they share the same vocals.
 * Spirit is the second character to appear in someone else's week with their own song. The first is Monster, who takes over for Skid and Pump in Week 2, and also Daddy Dearest and Mommy Mearest during Week 5.
 * Spirit is the fourth character to not have a "danger" icon, the first being Girlfriend, the second being Daddy Dearest and the third being Senpai.
 * Spirit is the third character that does not use a microphone, the first being Girlfriend and the second being Monster.
 * There are two specially programed effects for Spirit during Thorns to make him look ghastly. These effects apply to anyone on the antagonist side though, which is achievable by using the Debug Menu.
 * Whenever Spirit moves, such as his idle or singing animations, afterimages are created.
 * Spirit's regular idle animation is altered to look extremely fast and glitchy.
 * On a livestream, it's directly clarified that Spirit is trapped inside the video game character Senpai, but Senpai is still himself and not controlled by Spirit at all.
 * According to PhantomArcade through a Twitter post, the face seen on Spirit is supposed to be Tom Fulp's face.
 * Spirit is the second of three characters who kill another character in-game.
 * Senpai is Spirit's victim in week 6
 * The other two are Daddy dearest (kills Santa in week 5) and Pico (kills 81 tankmen in week 7).
