Left 4 Dead is Valve's 2008 co-operative first-person shooter about four survivors fighting hordes of infected. Its common infected use short, feral vocalisations for attacking, being hit and dying, designed to be readable in chaotic fights without any dialogue. Clips of those death sounds later spread through gaming forums, YouTube montages and soundboards as standalone effects. The clip remains popular because it is brief, unmistakably a zombie, and works outside the game as a clear audio cue for any undead character being defeated.

A short zombie dying sound effect from Left 4 Dead, with a guttural groan as an infected collapses. Used in gaming edits, horror memes and jump scare videos.
This is the death rattle of a common infected from Left 4 Dead, captured in just over two seconds. It starts with a wet, choking groan that quickly drops in pitch as the zombie crumples, with a faint gurgle at the end like air leaving the lungs. There is no music or dialogue, just the raw creature vocal and the soft thud of the fall. Played over gameplay or a meme clip, it instantly signals a kill is confirmed and adds a grim, slightly gross punchline that horror and shooter fans recognise immediately.
