The Howie scream is a frequently used stock sound effect for a scream in movies, television and video games. It is also a meme on the SiIvaGunner channel.
Origin
Its name originates from Howie Long's death scene in the 1996 crime film Broken Arrow, however, it was first used in the 1980 drama film The Ninth Configuration.

The sound effect first appeared in the medley rip "Final Destination - Super Smash Bros. Brawl" for April Fools' Day 2016.
During the reboot, the Howie scream replaced Loud Nigra (much like The Simpsons and Family Guy did to 7 GRAND DAD, and "GO MY WAY!!" did to "Snow halation"). In reality, Loud Nigra was not banned during the reboot, but the team had already been using Loud Nigra less often at that point, so much so that people actually thought it was gone and replaced by the Howie scream.[1] The team decided to incorporate the Howie scream into the lore in recognition of this.
The Howie scream has made sparse appearances in multiple rips since it's a common stock sound effect, usually only appearing in medley rips that intentionally call back to multiple memes.
Character
It is revealed in "Performance Review [FILE-21] - Haltmann's Archives" that Howard is a general within the military branch of Haltmann Works Co., effectively replacing General Joe Vargas. He is depicted visually in-character as Master Sergeant Kelly from Broken Arrow.
