Gorilla Tag grew from a VR multiplayer game about gorillas playing tag into a large online community known for custom lobbies, codes and player made myths. Ghost stories became a major part of that culture, with players sharing clips of supposedly haunted servers, strange figures and unexplained noises. This scary noise spread through those videos and soundboards as a shorthand for a ghost encounter. It remains popular because it works outside full gameplay too, instantly giving edits, streams and short horror memes the same uneasy feeling as entering a haunted lobby.
