Best Answer

Scream movie series is a satirical take on traditional horror and thriller movies. They contain many meta references to famous movies in those genres. So this is a direct reference to the character Casper the ghost from the movie with the same name. Also, note that Scream 1 came out in 1996, just a year later after Casper the movie was released, so the reference is obvious.
