The exact recording behind this clip is undocumented beyond its fan-made label, so its origin is unknown. FGNAF is a fan-made Five Nights at Freddy's style project, and this scream was uploaded by a soundboard user as a third jumpscare variant. Fan horror communities picked up clips like it because they mimic the sudden, ear-splitting shriek of the original games. Creators now drop it into prank videos, streams and fan animations alongside other short scare sounds such as the classic dramatic sting.
