A designated time (usually 11pm) in what district or neighborhood you are in LA country where the people collectively scream for a few seconds to relieve stress, promote solidarity, and humor. Also invented to annoy transplants to the city.
It shares its roots in the College/University âscream nightsâ, which is the first night before finals week where all dorm students collectively scream into the void.

âOh thatâs the Los Angeles Scream. It blows off steam. Cheaper than therapy.â
