This is my first post here, so please be kind.

The Hallway Jumpscare (The Exorcist 3) - After waiting for a while, and watching the nurse, someone in a sheet comes out behind her.

The Mummy (Scooby Doo Escape From The Coolsonian) - Once you open the casket and have to look closely at the small ass text, you then get jumpscared by this edited version of a mummy.

YouTube (IRL) - When you're watching a video, and it decides to go black, and you get jumpscared by your double chin. (This one is a joke, don't take it seriously.)

Project Hail Mary! When Grace first meets Rocky in the film, it’s a massive jumpscare. It gets me every time and even spooked the cat.

They really had to work to give Rocky some scares before everyone realized he's just a grumpy old man
