Foxy is the pirate fox animatronic from Five Nights at Freddy's, the 2014 horror game where players survive nights against malfunctioning animatronics, and his sudden jumpscare became one of the series' most recognisable moments. Clips of that scare spread through YouTube, TikTok and meme edits, where the loud scream meme format turned a frightening game moment into a reusable reaction. Creators now use the alert version to signal danger, mock a bad decision, or deliver a sudden twist, keeping Foxy's jumpscare familiar even to viewers who have never played the game.
