Post Jumpscare Syndrome is used to describe the state of shock one enters after a 'jumpscare' (an abrupt scare which is unexpected, usually found in horror games/movies). Post Jumpscare Syndrome typically lasts for several minutes, at the most 5 minutes in total (by some accounts).
Mr. Case was playing a scary game then got jumpscared by a creepy figure, he then suffered from Post 'Jumpscare' Syndrome.
