Skull Kid is a central character in The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, released for the Nintendo 64 in 2000. His laugh became memorable because of the game's eerie tone and the character's chaotic, childlike menace. Online, fans have reused the clip in Zelda edits, creepier gaming compilations and meme videos where a playful moment suddenly feels sinister. It still gets used because it is short, distinctive and tied to one of the most recognizable unsettling characters in Nintendo games.
