Biography
Scream was a Symbiote that was born from Venom when he was bonded to Eddie Brock on Earth. During this time, Venom was targeted by the Life Foundation who were looking to create superpowered agents similar to him. They came to learn that the Symbiote was capable of reproducing with this previously having resulted in the creation of Carnage. Thus, they captured Eddie Brock and conducted experiments to forcibly remove the Symbiote seeds within Venom where one was matured and bonded to one of their operatives who became Scream. After bonding to a woman, the Scream Symbiote was then deployed to near Salinas where she attacked the people in the area as the host became accustomed to her new powers. It was then that she was confronted by Spider-Man who battled her and Scream was forced to flee by throwing a passer-by to distract the Wall-Crawler. She then returned to the Life Foundation headquarters but unknown to her she was followed by Spider-Man. (Venom Lethal Protector v1 #4)
When Eddie Brock started his hunt for symbiotes, he killed Donna after Hybrid. Brock lead Scream to a trap, where using a sonic emitter, he paralyzed her and stabbed her in the head many times with a heated dagger. (Venom v2 #15)
Years later, Scream was resurrected by Knull, still bonded to Donna's corpse. However, when Patricia Robertson attacked, Scream abandoned Donna's skeleton, leaving her totally lifeless once again. Patricia Robertson came across the resurrected Scream and a group of four-armed symbiote monsters devouring civilians, and attacked them - taken aback to discover that Scream was bonded to a corpse. Trish was overwhelmed and the Scream symbiote bonded to her, the two succumbing to the dark god Knull's control. Taken over by Scream, Trish hunted down and attacked Andi Benton — who she bore a grudge against for having "stolen" and lost her original symbiote. (Absolute Carnage: Scream v1 #1) After gaining control of herself, Patricia attempted to save lives caught in the middle of Carnage's plan alongside Andi. (Absolute Carnage: Scream v1 #2) Carnage's later arrival caused her to lose control once more of the Scream Symbiote. She only managed to regain control of herself in order to defend Andi from Carnage, sacrificing her life in the process as Carnage impaled and killed her. The symbiote left Patricia's body and bonded with Andi, saving her from near-death and enabling her to escape. The Scream symbiote separated from Patricia's corpse and bonded to Andi. Recognizing that even with her new symbiote and the Hell Mark she couldn't defeat Carnage, Scream fled but was quickly recruited by Cloak to help turn the tide against Carnage's horde.
