The FNAF jumpscare scream comes from Five Nights at Freddy's, the indie horror game series built around animatronic ambushes, and its scream became one of gaming's most remixed sounds. Pitched-up squeaky edits like this one circulate on soundboards and meme pages as a tamer, funnier alternative to the original shriek. Because it keeps the shock shape of a real jumpscare while sounding harmless, creators reach for it whenever they want a scare that lands as a laugh instead.
