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<ref>The sound file was called scream5.mp3 and was set to loop indefinitely.</ref> 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<ref>Occurs when the user navigates away from the page, such as by clicking a link or closing the browser window.</ref> event to spawn even more windows. The title of the page was "Hello World :) Do u want to see ghost? (kkzkk@naver.com)."<ref>[[Imslow.kr/ghost|Ghost]] has a similar page title, which may indicate that both websites were developed by the same creator, or that Ghost is referencing kkzkk.com.</ref> | |||

Kkzkk.com was originally an [[wikipedia:Imageboard|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.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20160614012538/kkzkk.com/ A capture] of the site when it was shut down by the South Korean government.</ref> 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. | |||
