This is a generic horror-style stinger rather than a quote-driven meme sound, so it spreads mainly through editing use instead of a single famous source. Online, creators use it in short videos, gaming compilations and reaction edits whenever a sudden reveal needs extra impact. It is especially common alongside horror game moments and clips labeled like a FNAF jumpscare scream, because audiences instantly recognize the setup. The sound stays popular because it is brief, clear and easy to place on a single cut or flash frame.
