Kkzkk.com was a South Korean screamer website that was registered sometime in 2004 or 2005. The website was later seized by the South Korean government in 2016.
Content
The website's design was intentionally deceptive, luring unsuspecting users with its innocuous appearance. However, upon entering the site, an alert message that read "What The Hell !!!" appeared right before the website opened numerous fullscreen pop-up windows containing a randomly selected list of screamer images, such as Pazuzu, Ahenobarbus Henocied, and Regan MacNeil. A startlingly loud scream sound effect[1] would play with each new window opened, causing the screams to overlap and intensify in volume. If the user attempted to navigate away from the website or close any of the pop-up windows, the page would use the onunload[2] event to spawn even more windows. The title of the page was "Hello World :) Do u want to see ghost? (kkzkk@naver.com)."[3]
The malicious browser scripts only worked on Internet Explorer. If the user accessed kkzkk.com using a modern browser such as Google Chrome, the website would not work as intended, as pop-ups are disabled by default.
History
Kkzkk.com was originally an imageboard and did not contain any screamers. In April 2012, the website was changed to a screamer website. It was discontinued by the South Korean government in 2016.[4] In June 2017, the website was acquired by Ehren Schaiberger, and the content was changed to a picture of a kitten and a privacy policy page, and no longer contained any screamers. As of 2023, the domain is now for sale.
