Most people probably know that that fox animatronic is from Five Nights at Freddy's, the most overrated indie game trilogy of 2014-15.
The man carrying the bat, though, is a more obscure reference to a series. He is the main character of the game OFF, an rpg adventure indie game made in 2008. He's known as The Batter. The more you know
OFF is a fantastic game. I won't spoil it for you, but it has some fun little puzzles, and an absolutely amazing story. The characters are loveable too.
You're right about it being the guy behind the whole series, but that gif is actually from a small fan animation someone posted on youtube called 2 Evil Eyes. Amazing how fans can make a more interesting animation for the franchise then Scott.
when you're a terrified 9 year old you don't think about little bugs like that, you're running for your virtual life in a blind panic and praying to god you escape
