This meme uses a tense, spooky scene from the SpongeBob SquarePants animated series to illustrate the nervous, spooked feeling of discussing popular early 2010s internet horror stories (creepypastas including Slenderman, Jeff the Killer, and Sonic.exe) with friends on a cold night in 2014. The scene shows Mr. Krabs and SpongeBob sitting around a small campfire inside a dark, run-down wooden building, both looking unsettled and on edge, which perfectly matches the vibe of being creeped out while talking about scary internet stories in the dark.
