Best jumpscare sound?

[oscar1007]

So, im always seeing and hearing this loud and sudden scream (as a jumpsacer sound) when i watch amnesia videos. I was wondering if you know where i can find it?

Also, What do you think is the best sound for a jumpscare?

Iron maiden... (if i said it correctly). Its in sounds around 20 or 21 (another folder)

For me, the best jumpscare sound is the sound you hear when inflicting sanity damage to the player, but this i say because that also bears a screen effect.

I'd say any loud and instant sound (like a bang on a door) together with a bodyforce on the player. Of course, to make the player jump as much as possible, you need to be good at building up the mood for the actual scare.

A new sound you have never heard before.
Just record something and let it go through couple of filters and you have a good jumpscare sound
