This sound is tied to Baldi's Basics in Education and Learning, the indie horror parody game created by Micah McGonigal, also known as mystman12. The game first appeared in 2018 and spread quickly through YouTube playthroughs, streamer reactions, and fan memes. The jumpscare audio became memorable because the game mixes low-budget educational visuals with sudden horror beats. It is still used in edits and meme clips whenever creators want a recognizable game scare, similar to a FNAF Jumpscare Scream style payoff.
