'''Pnrtscr.com''' is a screamer website that ~~pretends~~ to ~~be a shortlink to a particular website. It is a typosquatting website that lures~~ users into believing ~~this is the actual~~ prntscr.com ~~website~~, a screenshot hosting website~~, and URLs to screenshots have 6 digits~~. ~~Users would led into a [[screamer]] if they~~ add any digits ~~after~~ "pnrtscr.com/"~~. When entering~~, the ~~website would contain a cookie banner, so it needs the user to accept the cookies to offer the "most relevant information~~." If the user accepts, the website will take the browser into full-screen mode with the flashing image of [[Jeff the Killer]] (as used in [[Anne.jpg]]), accompanied by an extremely loud, metal-like sound. This also happened if the player didn'~~t accept the cookies~~.

'''Pnrtscr.com''' is a [[screamer]] [[website]] that utilizes typosquatting to deceive users into believing that they have accessed prntscr.com, a well-known screenshot hosting website. To add any digits following "pnrtscr.com/", the URLs for screenshots on ''prntscr.com'' contain 6 digits.

The creator of the website ~~was Matthew Rowland. He admitted~~ on Reddit that he ~~made the site~~ as ~~an attempt "~~to ~~create~~ a modern jump scare.~~" The rest of the post includes information~~ about ~~how he created~~ the script ~~for~~ the website.<ref>reddit.com/r/screamer/comments/ly89ct/pnrtscrcom_the_ultimate_lightshot_screamer/</ref>

Upon entering the website, users are presented with a cookie banner that requests acceptance in order to provide "relevant information". When accepted, the website transitions the browser into full-screen mode, showing a flashing image of [[Jeff the Killer]] (as seen in [[Anne.jpg]]), and accompanied by an extremely loud, metal-like sound. The screamer still appears even if the user declines the cookies. Matthew Rowland is the creator of the website, and he confessed on [[Reddit]] (particularly on the subreddit r/screamer) that he created it as a way to produce a modern jump scare. He also provided details about the script he used to make the website.<ref>reddit.com/r/screamer/comments/ly89ct/pnrtscrcom_the_ultimate_lightshot_screamer/</ref> (see [[Reddit#Pnrtscr.com creator response]])
