The sound comes from Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, the 2002 GameCube survival horror game known for its sanity effects and shifting timelines. The recording is credited to Steve Henifin, who worked on the game's audio and voice production. Short dramatic lines from older horror games later resurfaced on soundboards because they work out of context as pure panic. This one spread as a reaction clip for theft, loss and chase scenes, where its desperate tone instantly explains the joke without needing the original scene for context today.
