So Intimidating!!! (Chinese: 好刺激啊!!!) is a screamer webpage hosted on a Chinese PDA resource website, coolce.com, as a prank around 2002.
Origin and spread
Entry
The screamer page is under the path /web/kongbu.htm (filename is the PinYin for "恐怖" which means scary). Links to this page can be seen as early as March 2022 on the homepage snapshot. On the navigation bar under the website title, the last two items all points to the screamer page:
... | 圣诞快乐 | 超酷MM
... | Merry Christmas | Super Cool Girl
When the mouse hover onto the links, they also have different popup prompts:
圣诞快乐！去看看吧，本站特制，一定让您忘不了！特别建议：一个人在半夜时看，有特别的……
真正的超酷MM，看过后不敢说是终身难忘，起码是……懂了吧！当然看过后不许骂人！哈哈！特别建议：一个人在半夜时看，有特别的……
Merry Christmas! Go check it out, this page is specially designed by us and you will definitely not forget it after viewing! Special suggestion: view it alone in the middle of the night, there'll be something special...
A truly cool girl. After watching it, I dare not say that it will be unforgettable for a lifetime, but at least... you get it! Of course, you are not allowed to blame me after watching it! Haha! Special suggestion: view it alone in the middle of the night, there'll be something special...
Screamer
The page has a black background. Upon opening, it will display a GIF of a slightly tilted, pale female face with blinking red eyes and blood dripping down her mouth corner. An audio file of woman's maniacal crying and laughing sound will be played for 10 times in the background. Under the image, there are some text in red font:
耐心点哦！您是第<Access Counter>位！刺激吧！后背凉了吗？
圣诞快乐！由 http://www.coolce.com 特别制作！
Be patient! You are the <Access Counter>-th visitor! Isn't that intimidating! Are you getting chills down your back?
Merry Christmas! Specially prepared by http://www.coolce.com!
In addition to that, there is an embedded JavaScript code that will make the webpage window fly across the entire screen. However, this behaviour is only available on old versions of Internet Explorer, and the screen size is hardcoded for either 640x480 or 800x600.
Spread
This screamer also gained popularity in Japan, along with Crazy Ghost. However, due to the encoding mismatch between Chinese GB2312 and Japanese Shift-JIS, all the Chinese become garble. Thus, this screamer is known as "挫缶爾亜"[1] (likely the garbled text for "好刺激啊") in Japanese circles, which doesn't have any meaning in Chinese.
