The clip is listed as a user made custom sound rather than an official game file, so its exact recording source is not documented. It circulates among Five Nights at Freddy's fans who build their own soundboards and edits around the series' tense, security camera atmosphere and sudden scares. Short FNAF sounds stay popular because they are easy to drop into videos, streams and messages without explanation. This one sits close to a FNAF jumpscare scream in use, giving creators a fast horror punctuation mark for jokes, reactions and fake scares.
