Springtrap is the decayed animatronic antagonist from Five Nights at Freddy's 3, released in 2015, and later appearances kept his jumpscare as one of the series' most reused scare sounds. Clips of the attack were ripped from gameplay and shared on soundboards and in fan edits, where the short sting became shorthand for a sudden FNAF scare. It is often grouped with the broader FNAF Jumpscare Scream in meme compilations, and its harsh robotic tone keeps it popular for horror pranks and edits long after the original game.
