Funtime Freddy is one of the animatronic characters in Five Nights at Freddy's: Sister Location, the fifth main entry in Scott Cawthon's horror series, released in 2016. In the game, a jumpscare triggers when an animatronic catches the player, pairing a sudden on-screen lunge with a loud, distorted sound. Clips of Sister Location gameplay spread widely on YouTube and later on TikTok, where the jumpscare became shorthand for sudden fright. Creators still reuse the short audio because it is instantly recognisable to horror fans and needs no explanation.
