Do you have any idea where or what context you heard it before? Any videos or commercials or anything? We have several sound/music experts here but it would be lovely to have more to go on to help search.
I actually heard it in a Haunted house ride in a local amusement park near me. The sound is very hard to describe, it starts out with a high pitched almost a child like laughter then goes into a burp sounding growl then a witch cackle.
May be original or they may have made their own mashup out of existing sound effects. I know my town's old amusement park's dark ride used sound effects recorded by the owner's sons and their friends. Miss that place!
So as I personally don't recognize the sound (not saying I would have, but I have heard LOTS of sound effects!) I'm going to throw out a few sites to check out, and hope that some of our more savvy and briliant sound engineer folks pop in and have the answer for you (it's scary how some of them can just tell you the obscure stuff instantly: "it was from a creepy sound album first printed in 1973, released on LABEL name and I have a copy of that in my collection!")
Place to share my mostly Halloween and Horror music collection and for invited readers to share theirs as well.

One of our resident experts - so much awesomeness, and he might even pass through on this site... but it's the slow season now. He's a moderator here tho, so it can be hoped.

that would be me. Lol. I have heard a lot of sound effects, but that is a new one on me. Not sure what the effect was they were trying to make...lol. I agree I think it is probably a sound bite someone at the park made themselves. Sorry I couldn't help you.
That definitely sounds like several distinct laughs/groans that have been spliced together to me.
I've not heard that particular sequence before, but the rapid-fire giggle/cackle seems familiar so I'll do some digging and hope someone else can help identify.
I've never heard that sound effect before....Since you mentioned the park you recorded it from is local, your best bet is to talk to the people that work the haunted house....If your lucky, someone that knows the haunted house ride very well might know exactly where it came from......Good Luck...ZR
That may work because last year the guy who operates it knew that I was such a big fan of the Haunted house he gave me a lights on walkthrough tour of the ride but I completely forgot to ask him about the effect. I’ll be sure to in May when they open if he is there again this year.
