On October 11, 2012, StefanD99 uploaded his own version titled "Hilarious hidden message in Where's Waldo" on [[YouTube]]. It features a low-quality screenshot of "The Goggling Gluttons" page from the ''Where's Waldo?'' book series. The screenshot slowly zooms in to the center while the song "[[wikipedia:Don't Worry Be Happy|''Don't Worry Be Happy'']]" by [[wikipedia:Bobby McFerrin|Bobby McFerrin]] plays. At the 22-second mark, a ghostly humanoid monster appears with the same scream from [[Ghost Caught on Tape]], accompanied by a growling sound.<ref>youtube.com/watch?v=i8ma0xDLJ8Q</ref><ref>bit.ly/3FM0hB1</ref>

On October 17, 2010, PrepareForAScare shared a "[[scary-pop-up]]"-based video titled "FIND WALDO (scary pop-up)" on YouTube. The video begins with a screenshot from the Waldo book series, challenging viewers to locate Waldo among numerous other characters. However, Waldo is edited ''out'' in the image. As the video advances, seemingly reaching its end, an image of a vampire suddenly appears on the screen, accompanied by a chilling scream resembling that of a young girl. This same screamer image has also been repurposed for use in the Maze Challenge game.<ref>youtube.com/watch?v=Di5kblvpmiM</ref><ref>bit.ly/3r4f0Uh</ref>

In 2012, SuperLaugh, the creator of the [[What's Wrong?]] version of Where's Waldo? animation, uploaded a screamer video titled "The Hardest Where's Waldo Ever" on YouTube. The video opens with an image of a crowded beach, featuring the same circus music used in Where's Waldo?, playing in the background. Viewers are instructed to find "Waldo" in the image. However, Waldo is notably absent, and the same screamer from What's Wrong abruptly interrupts after approximately 17 seconds.<ref>youtube.com/watch?v=SSf6GNMWBso</ref><ref>bit.ly/3uHYz1l</ref>

In 2018, a [[YouTube]] user [[User:Mega Osodashi|''Mega Osodashi'']] published a lost screamer video (under the name "Crystal the Tanuccoon") on YouTube titled "[[The Simpsons Comic: Find Ned Flanders In This Panel!]]" The video was deleted along with her video [[Baikinman's Heartbeat]] shortly in November. The video showcases a panel from The Simpsons comic book called "The Yes-Man Who Would Be King" and bears resemblance to the Where's Waldo? screamer. Users are compelled to find Ned Flanders in the comic's panel while a sped-up version of "Watch Out" by Bambee plays quietly in the background. At the 0:25 mark, a white girl with large eyes, large pupils, and a bloody mouth (from Planet Dolan's "15 Creepiest Things A Child Has Ever Said") suddenly appears, accompanied by an extremely loud scream. Following the screamer, a scene from the 1974 Perman episode plays, revealing a pink text that reads "Fooled!" and then shifts to "Look for more videos on my Generation Star YouTube channel!". Both moments are accompanied by a sped-up chorus of "Call Me" by Babe.

A collaborative music channel [[wikipedia:SilvaGunner|''SilvaGunner'']], uploaded a "high quality rip"<ref>The term "high quality rips" is frequently used by the SilvaGunner community to describe video game music that, in reality, consists of remixes, parodies, and/or mashups.</ref> titled "Carnival Music - Wheres Waldo?" to YouTube on October 30, 2022. This video is an apparent rip of Where's Waldo?. It kicks off with what seems to be the same crowd from the original screamer game, featuring various characters like [[wikipedia:Tails (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Tails]], [[wikipedia:Amy (Sonic the Hedgehog)|Amy]], and [[wikipedia:Shadow (Sonic the Hedgehog|Shadow]] from the Sonic franchise, and Maki Nishikino from Love Live!. The top left corner features an "1" watermark. While carnival music plays in the background, incorporating the same vocals from the [[wikipedia:Parry Gripp|Parry Gripp]] song [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtlaTNI1TaU Do You Like Waffles?]. At 0:13, the music fades, leading to a brief silence until the 0:41 mark, where a voice can be heard preceded by a "WAFF--". Abruptly following that, it cuts to the "I AM GOD" image from [[Sonic.exe]] instead of [[Pazuzu]], accompanied by the same scream from the original screamer game.<ref>The references to Sonic and the song "Do You Like Waffles" in the video may stem from the Sonic X video with 15 million views, Sonic-Do you like Waffles?</ref><ref>the credited composer is Eileen Dietz, the actress who portrayed Pazuzu in the 1973 supernatural horror film ''[[wikipedia:The Exorcist|The Exorcist]]''.</ref><ref>youtube.com/watch?v=-FaYCavHjg8</ref>
