The sound comes from a television commercial for Professor Layton featuring actress Dianna Agron, in which she delivers the exaggerated scream as part of the advertisement's playful tone. Shared on soundboards, the short exclamation took on a second life away from its original advertising context, becoming a handy reaction clip for creators who want an instantly recognisable burst of surprise. Its appeal lies in that recognisable human performance: it is short, expressive and easy to drop into a joke without needing the original commercial to make sense.
