The Jumpscares Meme
We all had our share of these kind of experiences, where something suddenly jumps at you and you either impress your friends by showing a straight face or you shriek and jump back five feet. Why not have that experience again?
-The Rules-
- Post with your character. State any preferences you may have, along with name and canon of course. You may start with an opener or leave blank
- Roll with RNG or pick an number from the list below. Your character is now in this situation and should react accordingly. You can decide between yourselves if you want to be scared or watch someone else be scared.
-Hilarity ensues! You don't have to end it at the scare. You can play out any events that happen after, such as cooking dinner and eating after opening biscuits, or hanging out with your friend/date after scaring them.
-Have fun!
1. The Classic Jumpscare game - This can be either one of those prank games like the Luna series or the exorcist face popping up on a maze. Or it can be a video game that isn't a prank, but still has its share of jumps, such as the Slender games, Amnesia, and Ao Oni.
2. The Classic Jumpscare video/Screamers - You know the one, where you show your friend a video and watch them shriek in horror as that horrifying face pops up on an otherwise quiet video of kittens playing, or whatever. Or you guys are watching a movie thats full of them.
3. Biscuit Horror - Oh god...not those. It's time to cook dinner and you have to face your fears of these cans of refrigerated dough. Either you have done this before, and you wince as you slowly pull the spiraled paper, only to have a heart attack when it pops or sigh in relief if it's one of those rare quiet ones. Or for more fun, you might be opening this for the first time and not realize what it does. for those who are unsure about what this is, this video sums it up.
4. Unexpected kitchen horror - There's always that bottle that explodes when you open it...or perhaps you open your daily box of cereal only to see a spider jump out...
5. Prank - You're meeting a friend, or you see them concentrating on something. You can't help but want to grab their shoulders from behind and scream briefly. Depending on your friend's personality, your life may not be guaranteed.
6. The Bongcheon-dong Ghost AKA That Korean Comic - This little monster is it's own category. The horrifying comic that looks safe because it's just a comic, right? Not like the guy who made it added anything that could turn its head 180 degrees or jump at you...
7. Okay, now I know this doesn't usually happen... - This time it's getting real. You're watching a scary movie and the evil little girl in it is starting right at you...or maybe is even crawling out of the TV. Or any other otherwise unrealistic situations you can think of.
8. Wildcard - Play out anything that isn't otherwise listed in here.
