Sonic.exe began as a creepypasta story about a haunted Sonic the Hedgehog game, written and shared online in the early 2010s, and it grew into fan games, animations and YouTube videos. The character is a demonic, red-eyed version of Sonic, and his distorted screams became a shorthand for corrupted or haunted-game horror. As clips from the games and edits spread on YouTube and TikTok, the scream was lifted out of context and reused as a standalone jumpscare sound. It remains popular because it is recognisable to horror and gaming audiences, even in a clip lasting less than a second.

A distorted scream from Sonic.exe, the horror fan-game version of Sonic the Hedgehog, used in creepypasta videos and memes for jumpscare edits.
This is a very short, sharp scream associated with Sonic.exe, the unsettling horror reimagining of Sonic the Hedgehog that spread through creepypasta stories and fan games. The clip lasts under a second and hits instantly, with a distorted, high-pitched voice that sounds warped and glitchy rather than like a normal cartoon shout. There is no build-up or music, just the sudden burst of panic, which is why it works so well as a jumpscare. Played at full volume it feels jarring and uncomfortable, cutting through quiet footage and making viewers flinch before they have time to process what they heard.
