Chambers, in which a fictional play featuring an entity referred to as "the Stranger" and a "Yellow Sign" drives readers mad. The "King in Yellow" experienced a resurgence in popular culture in the 2020s, following a series of horror-themed videos that adapted the character.

In the following weeks, many X users began parodying the tweets that used the GIF earnestly, due to a widely held perception that many of the uncomfortable situations posed in them weren't as scarring as the users had suggested.
