I've heard a lot about them and how traumatizing they can be for children, but are they actually a widespread thing or just something a bunch of psychotic schools do to torment kids?

We did a two or three a year. Sometimes they were "real" in the sense that something potentially dangerous was happening within a mile or so. One time it was "real" in the sense that there was a strange man with some sort of large tool trying to come into the school. Once or twice we heard banging during the lockdown and I suspect they were checking lockers for drugs.
