Dead Man Honking | comment |
Somebody just got killed while sitting in the driver's seat of a vehicle. Said person's body will, almost inevitably, fall forward, their head hitting the steering wheel and activating the horn. The constant droning draws everyone's attention and punctuates what just transpired. This is effective because such a sound imitates the constant drone associated with a related auditory trope connected to death: Flatline. If you thought this trope refers to a man frantically trying to honk Godzilla/a tank/a skyscraper/Cthulhu off the street (no chance to avoid the crash, they have the right of way), look if it can be filed as Impending Doom P.O.V.. Sister trope to Dead Foot Leadfoot. See also Big Honking Traffic Jam and Honking Arriving Car for more tropes based around car horn sound effects. As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

During their getaway an XOF helicopter opens fire on the ambulance; Ishmael gets hit and slumps onto the steering wheel, setting off the horn until Snake pushes him aside in a futile attempt to regain control of the vehicle. | |

Subverted in Halloween 5: The Revenge of Michael Myers, after his car crashes into a tree. Initially, the three people he's been pursuing are relieved at the sound of the car horn, assuming this trope. Their facial expressions turn to horror when the noise stops, revealing that of course, Myers has survived. | |

AMC's The Walking Dead had a long story arc with the protagonists trying to lead an incredibly large zombie herd away from their safe haven, Alexandria. The ruse fails when a semi-trailer crashes into the town walls, and the driver, slumping over, sounds the horn, leading much of the horde back to them. | |

Not dead but merely dazed: In the Better Call Saul episode "Nailed", Mike lays down an improvised spike strip made from a garden hose to ambush one of Hector Salamanca's couriers. When the courier's truck hits the strip, he loses control and swerves off the road into a ditch, striking his head on the steering wheel and activates the horn. | |

Wunschkonzert: Not with a car. Two German soldiers are holed up in a church, in a combat zone, apparently France or Belgium. They know that the rest of The Squad is out there, but the squad is lost in the fog, and there is a minefield. It so happens that one of the two men in the church is a musician, and he plays the church organ in order to signal the rest of the squad where to go. It works, but right at the end of the piece the organist holds the last note and keeps holding it. His buddy comes over and finds that the organist has been killed by Allied artillery and has flopped over onto the keyboard. | |

The Cabin in the Woods: When the zombie hiding in the back of the camper stabs Holden, Holden falls forward on to the horn, which beeps as the camper drives off the road into the lake. | |
