'''Kikia''' was a flash animated [[screamer]] created by an unknown user, but was posted on the Taiwanese service called Kimo by ''Netspooky'' in early 2002. Compared to all other screamers, Kikia is highly remembered as one of the earliest screamers to have existed on the internet. It was also regarded as the first of its type to become widely spread especially on different websites. As such, Kikia was an integral step towards kickstarting the [[screamer]] trend that would scare the internet senseless. | '''Kikia''' was a flash animated [[screamer]] created by an unknown user, but was posted on the Taiwanese service called Kimo by ''Netspooky'' in early 2002.

The early 2000s was a significant year for the internet. With an increased number of users and websites coming into the scene, so too did the horror scene. Websites such as "Scary For Kids" and other related media started to pop up and create whole communities of fans within the horror genre. However, while scary images and urban legends became the standard for them, the idea of a video or animation whose sole purpose is to scare unsuspected viewers as they were lulled into a state of serenity had not been done yet. | The early 2000s was a significant year for the internet.
