This is very much illegal depending on where you do it. Suddenly screaming in a large crowd has killed people before. A large group of people is just as likely to start a stampede as a large group of any other kind of animal.
Screaming fire in theater doctrine go brr. Also, noise ordinances
You can scream fire in a theater all you want. You only get in trouble if people get hurt. Thats the whole law—you can scream anything you want as long as people dont get harmed
You can definitely be cited for disturbing the peace without injuring anyone.
