What is the first hint that a giant monster, yet unseen, is towering over some characters, or clinging to the ceiling above them?
Not the vibration of its moves, the sound of its breathing, the putrid smell or anything like that...
No, in most cases, the very first hint they'll ever get of this menacing presence is... some liquid splashing over their heads or shoulders.
Most often drool, though it can be other secretions. Sometimes this drool is acidic, and they're really in trouble. May be also the blood or remains of the monster's last victim for extra fun.
In a way, an organic form of *Click* Hello, typically followed immediately by Oh, Crap!
See Rain of Blood if the dripping involves blood. Also see Phlegmings. If the characters are inside a Cave Mouth, they may realize in horror that this is the cause of that drippy sensation.
Can overlap with Perverted Drooling, if The Peeping Tom is Ceiling Clinging. Compare Dripping Disturbance.

In the original version of Wild ARMs, Zeikfried wakes up in the ruins of the Photosphere after falling through a black hole. One of the telltale signs he is not alone is some kind of fluid dripping from a gap in the ceiling and a very familiar laugh. Mother's remains drop down behind him and then eats him alive.

The Simpsons:
In "Treehouse of Horror VIII", in a segment spoofing The Fly, Lisa discovers the tiny Bart-Fly, who tells her of Fly-Bart's intention to kill the former, and claims that she's not scared of the creature. Cue slime dripping on her, revealing that Fly-Bart has been watching her from the ceiling for some time.
In "Treehouse of Horror XXIX", in a segment spoofing Jurassic World, the Simpsons try to escape Mr. Burns' new retirement complex when the seniors turn into dinosaurs. When it appears it's starting to rain, they realize it's actually drool from a transformed Grampa.

The Xenomorph in Alien: Isolation has a habit of hiding in ceiling vents. A very difficult-to-spot trickle of drool dripping down from the vent is your only clue as to the fact that it's there. If you start getting drooled on, well, heads up.

The Alien franchise is pretty fond of this one, and an early example to boot — several other entries on this list are direct references. Whenever dripping saliva onto the victim won't signal a Xenomorph's presence, the warm air exhaled onto the victim's neck from behind will. And if that happens, it's already too late to run.

As things go south in Jurassic World, a dinosaur containment team is sent after the GPS tracker implanted in the Indomitus rex. They find the tracker lying on the ground in a chunk of flesh — the I. rex remembered where they implanted it and dug it out — and as the team leader ponders this, a drop of fresh blood splats onto his arm, he slowly looks up... Subverted: the blood drip is just from where the Indominus has bled onto a plant while the creature itself is using its camouflage ability to hide in the background.

In one of the extra pages installments of the Skip Beat! manga, Maria has a rather large, remote-controlled, robot spider she uses to scare off women who get too close to Ren. Guess how she introduces it. Go on, guess.

An interesting variation in The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug: The dwarves realize Smaug is crawling through a chasm directly above them when a coin drops from the dragon's underbelly and lands on the bridge they're crossing.

In Wing Commander Prophecy, the first hint Commodore Blair gets of an alien waiting to pounce on him, while he's trying to shut down the alien wormhole gate before getting swarmed by the Nephilim, is its drool landing on the rifle he was carrying.

In The Girl of the Golden West (a play before it was an opera), Minnie is trying to hide the wounded Johnson in a loft from Jack Rance, who is also the sheriff and comes looking for him after having shot at him. She is just saying goodnight to Rance, and he holds out his hand to her, when a drop of blood falls on it from the boards above. Minnie says that she must have scratched him, but then another drop of blood falls from the loft on his hand, betraying Johnson's hiding place.

When he gets into the recording booth and begins drooling on Cecil from the ceiling, Cecil knows exactly what will happen if he looks up, and keeps his head down until he has gotten out of the booth and locked Hector in.

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic:
"Do Princesses Dream of Magic Sheep": In a dream that's about to turn into a nightmare, Fluttershy's first hint that the giant Angel Bunny has turned monstrous is his drool falling on her head.
"Stranger Than Fan Fiction": While in a Temple of Doom, Quibble Pants is ranting about how "unrealistic" the adventure there are in is... oblivious to the Cipactli (a mythological mix of toad and crocodile) rising behind him until big droplets of mud fall on him. Then he turns around, and starts to realize this is all too real.
"To Where and Back Again – Part 2": When Starlight Glimmer (actually, Thorax the changeling in disguise) enters the main throne room of the Changeling Hive, she doesn't see anyone here until a drop of goo falls on her head. Looking up, she sees all her friends (including Discord and Trixie) imprisoned in cocoons. And then, Chrysalis's laugh echoes.

Happens indirectly in Men in Black. After K enters the morgue to find out what's happened to J, he tries to light a cigarette but the match is put out by a drip of slime. He looks up and sees the attendant glued to the ceiling by the Bug's secretions — a warning that the Bug is present in the morgue.
