One interesting plot could be the night guard gradually forming an unexpected bond with the animatronics. For example, the night guard discovers that the animatronics have a hidden side that is not as menacing as they seem at first.

It can start with fear. The night guard is initially terrified of the animatronics. But as time passes, small acts of kindness or non - aggression from the animatronics can make the guard start to question their initial assumptions. For example, if an animatronic leaves a small gift (like a trinket) for the guard instead of attacking him.
