Red guy seated Its Nice That

"I wonder what will happen."

-Red Guy

Red Guy is one of the main protagonists in the Don't Hug Me I'm Scared videos. He resembles no known creature or thing. He is voiced by Joe Pelling. His head explodes at the end of Episode 4. After that he can be seen at the end of Episode 5 during the credits. He is walking away from a telephone booth, which probably means that he was calling home, so Duck Guy and Yellow Guy could escape.

Appearance

He is red and has long hair that covers his face and neck. Unlike Yellow Guy and Duck Guy, he doesn't wear any clothes.

Personality

Out of all of his friends, he is the most mature, sarcastic, sharp-witted and seems to have the most common sense of the 3 puppets. He often makes sarcastic comments to the teachers. In episode 4 he becomes enemies with Colin the computer.
