{{quote|'''Harley''': [[Repeating So the Audience Can Hear|Huh? What was that? I “should kill everyone and escape”?]]
'''Harley''': Sorry... The voices.
'''Harley''': Dhaha‐IDhaha! I'm kidding. Jeez. [[False Reassurance|That's not what they really said.]]

Line 52:
* Michael from ''The Republic of Trees'' suffers those near the end of the book. Though he refers to them as "demons", they all keep screaming at once, so he never hears them clearly enough to figure of what they want.
 
=== Live -Action TV ===
 
* Subverted in ''[[NCIS]]'' when they investigate a case of a naval officer that was diagnosed with schizophrenia after her husband was killed in action and she starts hearing voices in her room. It turns out the "voices" were from a radio transmitter planted in her air vents. She had vital information regarding the whereabouts of a large sum of stolen money, and the criminals who wanted it were trying to get her out of the picture by [[Gaslighting|having her declared insane]].
Line 64:
* "Skullcrusher Mountain" by [[Jonathan Coulton]]: "The voices that control me from inside my head say I shouldn't kill you... yet."
* "Absolutely Bill's Mood" by [[They Might Be Giants]]. Formerly the page quote.
* [[Harvey Danger]]'s "Flagpole Sitta": "I hear the voices in my head, I swear to god it sounds like they're snoring..."
* [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AmLFVATlt5s "Inner Voice"] by [[Worm Quartet]] is ''probably'' this, given <s>some</s> most of the things it suggests, but hey, it's worked for the narrator so far. He's not too happy about that last one, though.
 
Line 109:
=== Film ===
 
* Used in the ''[[The Lord of the Rings]]'' movies, to hint at the One Ring's corrosive mental effects.
* ''[[Poltergeist]]''. While Carol Anne is watching a TV set to a dead channel, the static starts to sound like whispering. This is apparently the sound of the ghosts on the "other side".
* ''[[Star Trek: First Contact]]''. Picard keeps hearing the voice of the [[Voice of the Legion|Collective]] in his head.
