Cat Scare	comment	A Cat Scare is a strong buildup of high tension, followed by a fright that turns out to be something harmless (say, a startled cat) to release that tension. For example, a heroine may be tiptoeing down a dark hallway to escape the serial killer who cut the power in her house when a door in the hallway starts to slowly creak open... she pauses, a look of genuine fear in her face as the door slowly edges open and out leaps... a cat! Phew, not what we were expecting. It was only a cat... Note that although the Cat Scare is harmless by itself, it is very often used to effectively double-subvert a Jump Scare. In this scenario, the Cat Scare is introduced to soften up the audience for a real scare to follow shortly — so in the above example, although the heroine (and the audience) is relieved that it was "just a cat", the camera may subsequently cut back to her and reveal how the serial killer is approaching from behind while she's breathing that sigh of relief. Similarly, another variant is that some Fridge Logic associated with the cat's presence clues the character in to the real horror to come. ("Hang on, if all the doors were shut, how'd that cat get in...?") As Roger Ebert points out in his book of Hollywood clichÃ©s, the cat often enters shot hissing and raving, airborne at chest height, as if it has been thrown into shot by a technician. (Hence another common name for this phenomenon, "the spring-loaded cat", because the feline in question often appears to be deployed as soon as the door/chest/other suitable object is opened). Moving toward Discredited Trope territory, but still shows up done straight from time to time. Can overlap with That Poor Cat. Sister trope of Self-Offense. Not to be confused with Convenient Decoy Cat, where the cat diverts the attention of the bad guys from a hiding hero. While sometimes the "cat" is logically hidden, sometimes it's Behind the Black — a place where the person should see it but is off-camera. Although the use of an actual cat for a Cat Scare is common enough to have named the trope, the general technique of building up tension and then startling the audience with something that turns out to be harmless is also known as a "Lewton Bus". This name comes from producer Val Lewton, who popularized the technique with a scene in his 1942 movie Cat People: the heroine is being stalked by a hostile were-panther, but the cat-like hissing noise that startles the heroine and audience turns out to have come from a bus's air brakes. The mass equivalent is Bat Scare, in which a whole flock of startled creatures provides the scare. Also see Hope Spot (a false sense of tidy resolution before heading into an ugly one instead), Hey, Wait! (a false sense of discovery of subterfuge) and Your Princess Is in Another Castle! (a false sense of resolution quite early in a story). When you want a fake scare without launching a feline, you deploy the Scare Chord. Contrast Imminent Danger Clue, where instead of mistaking something harmless for something dangerous, the character temporarily dismisses or fails to notice a sign of danger because it seems completely ordinary. When it happens at the end of a story for comedy, see Shock-and-Switch Ending.

Cat Scare / int_13652756	comment	Near the end of Finding Nemo, it's revealed that Darla's dental appointment as finally arrived. The Tank Gang find out that their escape attempt from the dentist's fish tank has been thwarted due to a futuristic aquarium filter called the Aqua Scum 2003 has been installed, which can scan the fish tank every five minutes, and while the fish start jeering at the new filter, the doorbell rings, causing them to panic, thinking that Darla has arrived... but then it turns out that the patients who've just arrived at the dentist's office are a young boy and his mother note In the fullscreen version, due to her outfit portraying her wearing a skirt, one can actually see the woman patient's legs underneath, although her legs are still seen later on even in the widescreen version, but she and her son were sitting, causing them to sigh in relief... and then the dentist scoops Nemo out of the fish tank, and despite the Tank Gang's futile attempt to help Nemo escape the net by pushing it downwards, the dentist has Nemo bagged anyway, and then order Nemo to escape through an open window towards the harbor outside, prompting the dentist to "rescue" Nemo by putting his bag in a bin, and then... Cue Darla.

You find the bird seemingly gone from the cat's food bowl and a trail of blood leading over to a hole in the wall. When you go down into the basement and open a fresh patch of cement, you find the cat and its eyes have been gouged out. It runs away in a literally-blind panic. This demonstrates that there's something less-than-natural going on with these birds.

When the primary researcher who developed the drug realizes one of the laboratory test animals has entered a catatonic state, he becomes concerned and goes to check on the drug's first human test subject, an elderly widow who lives alone. He finds her home seemingly deserted and eerily silent. As he gingerly makes his way through the house, calling out for the woman, a cat suddenly falls on his head from out of nowhere, startling him and the audience before it runs away. When the researcher looks up, he sees half a dozen cats hanging from the ceiling by their claws.

After the chestburster scene, the movie rachets up the tension as the crew detects movement that might be the alien... only for the cat to jump out to scare the characters and the audience. To prevent any more false alarms, Brett is sent to catch it so the cat won't trip the motion sensor again. He finds it right before encountering the fully grown and absolutely terrifying adult alien. In Aliens we have a rare human example. While in Medlab the Marines detect something moving and hunt it down. It finally bursts out of cover and is almost shot, whereupon they discover that it's Newt, a little girl who's the only survivor of the xenomorph attack.

Cat Scare / int_410f0996	comment	An especially complex use: In The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011), a journalist is hired by an old man to investigate the old man's suspicions about his own family's possible involvement in a disappearance. It is arranged that the journalist will live in the family guest house, on the remote island owned and occupied entirely by members of the family (suspects all, and generally a hostile group). The journalist befriends a stray cat, but is later obliged to leave for several days, locking the doors and windows of the guest house behind him (the cat is outdoors); when he returns he finds the cat waiting for him inside the guest house. In this case the cat scare is used to show not just that someone has entered the guest house in his absence, but also to hint that that person probably wanted him to know that they'd been there. The cat is benign and very cuddly, but its presence indicates something sinister.

The boss's cat startles the protagonists several times, but the audience always sees the cat long before they do... sitting extremely still waiting for the perfect moment to suddenly jump out and startle them as if this trope is that cat's favorite thing in the world.

Cat Scare / int_4ba244d2	comment	In Five Nights at Freddy's 2, the old animatronics love to employ this trick: when they appear in your room, you immediately think they're gonna kill you, but then the lights go out, and when they come back on, they're gone. So, you go back to looking at the cameras, or put on your Freddy mask to be on the safe side, when REEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH-. NoteIn the case of putting on your Freddy mask, the animatronics will actually rip it off as they go in for the kill. Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach parodies its own infamous Jump Scares with the Map Bot, a simplistic Staff Bot that will grab you with the appropriate sound effect... only to calmly offer you one of its free maps as the screeching dies down. This happens several times, and even if you're in hiding the Bot will rip you out of hiding just to make its offer.

However, once it's off-screen, something decidedly not a cat can be heard devouring it. Subverted in the alternate form of the school. Harry can hear the same locker door banging against its latch, but when he opens it there's nothing inside except bloodstained rust. When he turns to leave, another locker bangs open and a mutilated body falls out. There's also Larval Stalkers, which appear as vaguely toddler-shaped shadows that make your radio emit static (normally a clue that an enemy is nearby) but only harmlessly make squeaking noises before vanishing if you touch them. Not only is it going to make you good and tense, but it'll also fool you into thinking the similar-looking but very much dangerous Stalkers encountered later in the game are also harmless... Ravens tend to fly in out of nowhere in Silent Hill: Downpour. Also, hai doggie, didn't expect you to still be in that police cruiser.

Barely a minute after the first shock, Matt is investigating the plane of glass where it came from, and the camera then cuts to his mom slapping a mop on the ground. After a moment of relief, you see that the water she's using to clean has turned into blood. Thanks a lot, Cornwell. A more typical example later in the film when the poor cat is murdered and its mangled body left on the doorstep. Aside from warning the journalist to back off as he's clearly getting closer to the truth, the killer is no doubt also warning him that he could easily have killed him as well, given that he was right outside his door.

The next morning he returns and discovers what actually happened: someone was listening to a phonograph record of Clodagh's voice, and when the Fog of Doom hit, the phonograph became stopped up with dust.

There is a scene where the viewer is expecting a cat to show up and attack the heroine, only for the tension to be broken by the arrival of a bus with an air brake that sounds like a cat hiss. The general case of the Cat Scare trope is also called a "Lewton Bus" in commemoration of Cat People, which has one of the first uses of the trope in cinema.

Then the killer. The dog and cat vacate through a doggie door. The horse gets out via a larger opening. The victim? Follows the cat out. Did we mention she's slightly overweight? In the second film, the protagonist goes to investigate a noise and discovers a cat... who then beats her up with a broken bottle.

Perhaps the most infamous case of this was during her playthrough of indie game INFLICTION, where she screamed in terror from an ordinary bar of soap that she herself picked up. What makes it odder is that it's these moments where she tends to have the strongest reactions — she's much more tolerant, if not outright gleeful, when the scares pick up and become graphic and/or violent.

Cat Scare / int_b36c38cd	comment	Steven Spielberg felt that there weren't enough scary moments in the first half of Jaws, before audiences had seen the shark for the first time. He went back and edited in a plotless scare when a diver (Hooper) is exploring a derelict wrecked boat. Heralded by scary music and accompanied by a Scare Chord, they spot a corpse looking through a hole in the wreck. While it got a shriek from audiences, Spielberg always regretted adding it in because it ultimately sapped tension that would have paid off better when the shark finally appeared. Earlier in the film, there's a more typical example, when Pippet the dog disappears. The ominous hint at his fate comes when the stick he'd been running into the water to retrieve is seen floating on the water, abandoned. Not one second later, theme music kicks in and we get the Murderer P.O.V. as the shark swoops in on and kills a little boy.

After searching for it a while (and describing the creature in such a vivid and horrible way the audience is terrified of it before they even see it), something is seen moving under a cloth... only it's a cat. Then, before the audience has time to catch their breath, the camera pans back to a character it had only been off for a few seconds, who's now being strangled to death by the Dalek creature. "Vincent and the Doctor" puts companion Amy in this position, seriously startling the Doctor after he'd just been chased by an invisible alien monster when he looks back around a corner and she's just tracked him down. In "Doctor Who and the Silurians", two UNIT soldiers are searching a barn for a killer alien monster when they get startled by a chicken. In the two-parter "The Empty Child"/"The Doctor Dances", Nancy is horrified to be confronted by a boy in a gas mask as she's leaving the house, but this one time it is just an ordinary boy in an ordinary gas mask (instead of the titular Creepy Child in a gas mask who's spreading The Virus around London).

A Time Skip later, and then the Hawk shows up. Then immediately after the Hawk's first appearance, the frazzled group hear a ping coming from behind them that freaks them out and prompts them to turn... to find it was just the tracker pinging as the tracker merc awkwardly confirms that it's been fixed. An annoyed Irene asks her to turn down the volume on it.

It is very loud, seems to come out of nowhere, and will still get you the twelfth time it happens. However, it is completely and utterly harmless. This is probably a reference to Eternal Darkness, where, amongst other things, bugs will crawl on the screen if your sanity drops low enough.

Cat Scare / int_eef69f10	comment	Sherlock Holmes: "The Adventure of Charles Augustus Milverton": While breaking into the title blackmailer's house under the cover of night, Watson and Holmes are indeed startled by a cat walking past them in a dark hallway. In The Speckled Band, they approach a house they're planning to stake out in at night. As they walk the darkened grounds, something Watson describes as a horrible, misshapen child runs into them, bowls them over, and then runs off, considerably freaking Watson out. He forgot that the owner of said house liked to keep weird, foreign animals on the extensive grounds, and when he asks what it was, Holmes laughs it off, explaining that the creature was merely the man's baboon. Not that a baboon couldn't have done a heck of a lot of damage to them if it had wanted to, but it didn't cause any harm and wasn't the incomprehensible monster Watson first envisioned. In The Case of the Six Watsons by Robert Ryan, Dr. Watson is spending the night hidden in a map room where it's suspected a spy is stealing papers after everyone has left. At one point he hears a noise and rushes out with a revolver and torch, only to find a cat rummaging through a waste basket. Afterwards however Watson thinks he might have found the spy after all.

Cat scares are built into the game in the form of the marine's motion sensor. Rather than a standard enemy radar, it shows the relative location of any object that moves nearby, accompanied by a warning beep. It won't detect any Xenomorphs hiding motionless in the shadows, but it will freak you out every time you scare a cat, almost step on a cockroach, or walk by a crane hook swinging in the breeze.

Cat Scare / int_faf84cd	comment	Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines In the haunted house level, the role of the cat is played by a lone rollerskate. Alternatively, one could argue that the whole level is a giant cat scare, because even though there's plenty of ominous creaking, liberal use of the Scare Chord, sudden ghostly whispers, Ax-Crazy apparitions, etc., nothing jumps out at you, and you're in no danger whatsoever (except for a fire breaking out in the kitchen and one falling elevator). Later seen again several times in a level. Entering, if you look to the side—Gahh! A raptor! No, wait, it's just a statue. Then you have to walk past creepily rendered dioramas of dinosaurs, and on walking under a giant Tyrannosaurus head model, it roars... but no dinosaurs ever come alive, and they're just there to be scary. It's a Stealth-Based Mission (or at least it's supposed to be,) but fortunately for the player, if they release a startled shotgun blast or three (or empty full magazine from their automatic rifle in a blind panic) into the raptor, nobody will notice. The raptor statue is lampshaded later, as the player can come across a note to a museum worker both praising the guy who placed the statue there for the scare factor, and telling him to put it back before someone important notices.
