The sound comes from Five Nights at Freddy's, the 2014 indie horror game by Scott Cawthon where animatronics jumpscare the night guard at the end of a failed night. The scream became one of the most recognisable audio cues on YouTube as Let's Players reacted to it, and fans ripped countless variants like this one onto soundboards. The related FNAF Jumpscare Scream clip is the best known version. Editors still use it because the noise instantly signals a FNAF-style scare, even for viewers who never played the game.

The harsh metallic scream from the original Five Nights at Freddy's jumpscare. Creators use it for sudden scares, prank edits and horror reaction videos.
This is the second jumpscare variant labelled from the first Five Nights at Freddy's game, a short burst of distorted screaming layered over grinding metal and static that lasts under two seconds. It opens with a sudden shriek, then collapses into harsh noise and a low mechanical growl, with no melody or pause to soften it. The clip is designed to startle, so it hits hardest when the listener is focused on something quiet. Used well, it makes viewers flinch, laugh nervously or replay the moment to catch what they missed.
