Five Nights at Freddy's 2 is the 2014 indie horror game by Scott Cawthon where players survive nights against possessed animatronics, and this clip captures the scream that fires when one reaches the office. The game's jumpscares became a staple of early YouTube Let's Play culture, with reaction videos racking up millions of views and cementing the screech as shorthand for a sudden scare. It later migrated into meme edits, prank compilations and short-form videos, where it still works as a punchier take on the classic FNAF jumpscare scream.
