Five Nights at Freddy's popularised the animatronic jumpscare, where quiet surveillance gameplay is broken by a sudden face and scream. Fan-made games in the same style, including FNAMIMI, remixed that formula with cleaner, louder remastered effects for a stronger hit. Short clips like this one later spread through soundboards, horror edits and meme videos, where creators reuse the scream outside the game entirely. Its popularity comes from instant recognition: even without the visuals, listeners understand a jumpscare has happened and react to the abruptness alone.
