Five Nights at Freddy's, the 2014 indie horror game by Scott Cawthon, made its animatronic jumpscares famous, and the FNAF jumpscare scream became one of its most recognisable audio signatures. As gameplay clips and reaction videos spread on YouTube, editors began lifting the scream out of context and using it as a standalone punchline for scares, fails and pranks. It stuck because the sound is instantly understood even by viewers who have never played the game, signalling danger and surprise in under a second.

A loud, distorted jumpscare scream from Five Nights at Freddy's, used in memes and edits to punctuate sudden scares, pranks, and unexpected reveals.
This is the harsh, high-pitched scream associated with a Five Nights at Freddy's jumpscare, stretched into a short meme clip that hits instantly and cuts off before it can settle. The sound is loud, jagged and slightly distorted, like a sudden burst of panic layered over a mechanical shriek, and it lands as a shock rather than a build-up. In a video it makes the viewer flinch, laugh nervously or both at once, which is why editors use it as a punchline for failed challenges, surprise reveals and moments where a character realises something has gone badly wrong.
