The clip circulates online under the Learninghorrors 2012 name and is grouped by players with Five Nights at Freddy's sounds because it works like a classic FNAF Jumpscare Scream. Short horror stings from that era spread through game videos, custom maps and soundboards, where a four second scare could be reused instantly without context. It has stayed in use because it needs no setup, viewers recognise the distorted scream pattern immediately, and editors can drop it into any quiet scene to create a cheap but effective jump moment.
