* Mild example: A couple of times when the father in ''[[Curtis]]'' hurt his back, his scream accompanied a diagonal view of the outside of the apartment building.
* In one ''[[Calvin and Hobbes]]'' strip, Calvin, upon learning that Rosalyn is coming to babysit again, lets out a large "AAAAAAUUUUUUGGGGGGHHHHHH!" that takes up the top half-inch of the entire strip, and continues throughout the next strip, prompting his mother to say "For heaven's sake, Calvin, take a breath before you pass out on the floor!"
 
 
== Fan Fiction ==
* Happens twice in ''[[Kyon: Big Damn Hero]]'', both times when girls are seeing evidence of a voyeuristic illegal photography ring in their school.
 
Line 109 ⟶ 104:
* ''[[Looney Tunes: Back in Action]]'' does this when Bugs, Daffy, and Elmer Fudd chase each other in the Louvre's paintings. Inside Munch's masterpiece, Bugs steps on Elmer's toe, causing him to briefly morph into the "Screamer."
* In ''[[The Dark Knight Saga]]'' this is Falcone's response when Crane sprays the fear toxin in his face. And it's unending too implying that he descended into insanity out of fear.
 
 
== Literature ==
* Rincewind does the Munsch pose on the paperback cover of ''[[Discworld/The Last Hero|The Last Hero]]''.
 
 
== Live-Action TV ==
Line 124 ⟶ 117:
* Reese on ''[[Malcolm in the Middle]]'', when he learns that the girl he was crushing on after reading her diary was [[Squick|actually his mom]].
* Frequently happens in ''[[Sister, Sister]]'' when either Ray or Tia discovers Tamera did something stupid that they are angered at (it's not really a scream as much as them screaming Tamera's name, as it pans out, sometimes even starts in before panning out).

* ''[[Time Splitters]] Future Perfect'' has a version where Sgt. Cortez shouts "Goddamnit" so loud, it can be heard approximately 100 years '''in the past'''.
* ''[[Yume Nikki]]'': {{spoiler|aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA}}
* Very much a non-comedic example: in the manga detailing the events leading up to ''[[Sengoku Basara]] 3'', . {{spoiler|[[Blood Knight|Date]] [[Handicapped Badass|Masamune]] of all people gets one of these when he runs up against Ishida Mitsunari. Oh, notNot for himself, even though Mitsunari beats the shit out of him and actually '''gores him'' through the stomach; it's when he regains consciousness in the [[Field of Blades|ruins of the battlefield]] and sees [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|what]] [[Ludicrous Gibs|Mitsunari]] [[Curb Stomp Battle|did]] to his [[Mauve Shirt|army of dorky mooks]] and his beloved [[Battle Butler]] [[Wiser Advisor|Katakura]] [[Hypercompetent Sidekick|Kojurou]] when they [[Big Damn Heroes|tried to protect Masamune while he was passed out from blood loss]]. Watching one of the most [[Badass]] fighters in a series that practically [[Rule of Cool|runs]] on [[Badass]] break down screaming and crying is...[[Tear Jerker|slightly upsetting]].}}
* In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask]]'', the facial expression of the Zora Elegy of Emptiness statue uncannily resembles Munch's painting.

* In ''[[Two Lumps]]'' "The Scream" washas been [http://twolumps.net/d/20050801.html spoofed] at least [http://twolumps.net/d/20060703.html twice] so far.
* Black Mage from ''[[8-Bit Theater|Eight Bit Theater]]'' hollered an enormous [[Atomic F-Bomb|"FFFFFFFFFFFF-UCK!"]] when he lost his powers as ruler of hell.
* In ''[[Sluggy Freelance]]'', when Bun-bun finds out his collection of ''[[Baywatch]]'' tapes has been magnetically erased. What's really hilarious/terrifying about this is the implication of what he's going to do to the other main characters once he catches them.
** Later, a hapless fan [http://www.sluggy.com/comics/archives/daily/050602 here].
* In ''[[Dubious Company]]'', Walter needs to upgrade his ship with a homing device in order to find Tiren. [[Leeroy Jenkins]] thinks this is taking too long and decides to help while Walter is sleeping. Walter wakes up to find his [[Cool Ship]] in ruins. Cut to Tiren asking [[The Dragon|Izor]] if he heard that scream.
* ''[[El Goonish Shive]]'': Sohad far,several therescreams haveheard beenby space aliens: [httphttps://www.egscomics.com/?date=2008-05-07 twoCatalina], [httphttps://www.egscomics.com/?date=2011-12-09 differentAdrian Raven], screams[https://www.egscomics.com/comic/2015-02-13 heardSarah], by[https://www.egscomics.com/comic/2017-04-14 space aliensPandora].
** And two [[Squee]]s, by [https://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=1632 Elijah] and then [https://www.egscomics.com/index.php?id=1712 Elijah and Grace together].
* ''[[Brawl in the Family]]'' had Mario [ http://brawlinthefamily.keenspot.com/comic/75-paintings/ explore it]. This was a bad choice.
