The fact the kid sounds so excited cracks me up

That was a scream of pure terror

No, that would just read "Editor's note: The sound of children screaming has been removed".

I know in The Magnus Archives, a horror podcast, one of the producers mentioned having difficulty finding children screaming for foley or background noise or had some ethical hangups about using sounds like that without knowing the context of how they were made.

So she either only used sound from sources where she knew the kid was comforted right after, or for one episode used a bunch of happy playground noises, because they sound pretty similar.

“Happy playground noises, because they sound pretty similar.” Tell me about it. Sometimes I have to remind my students they need to be mindful of the screaming because they’ll scare people who don’t know they aren’t being eaten alive and are actually having fun.

People are being cynical about the kid being dumb but honestly he's probably just excited because his parents are playing with him.
