On Happy Days, the character of Jenny Piccalo was an offscreen "bad girl" friend of Joanie until the eighth season. Once brought onscreen, her character became much Lighter and Softer.

In the games Betrayal at Krondor and Return to Krondor, there is a character called the Crawler. The Crawler is never seen or heard, only mentioned through conversations and letters. What is known for certain is that the Crawler is some sort of crime boss, and is assumed to be male. He has an agent named Bear, who is very dangerous on his own. He also has powerful connections (one letter from a powerful man in a land called Kesh warns his niece to "Beware the master of Durbin. The Crawler's plot is a web within a web."). It is too bad a game has not made where you actually get to fight this guy.

Five Nights at Freddy's: Most human characters seldom appear on-screen outside of Atari-style minimalist mini-games with the focus being on the player character (whom can't be seen since the game is from his P.O.V) being alone with the animatronics. For a while, the closest thing to a human character showing up as a 3D-model was William Afton's mangled remains inside of Springtrap. Averted in the Steel Wool-developed games which are more kin on featuring humans characters.

Dragon Age loves this trope. Most of the really big players in this universe have not been seen yet although heavily impacting the lore. The Evanuris who are confirmed imprisoned somewhere in the fade, the Titans who we only get to see from the inside, and of course the forbidden ones, the older gods, and the forgotten ones, that might or might not be the same people.

Technically, this tactic was used before in Ben-Hur (1959). Jesus cameos in the film, giving water to Judah Ben-Hur and, later, when Ben Hur witnesses the crucifixion. Not once is Jesus' face shown. Many Christians, especially Roman Catholics, are uncomfortable with any depictions of Jesus' face in contemporary or even classic media, as it puts a potentially misleading visual "face" on Jesus. The director of Ben-Hur decided not to show Jesus' face in the film out of respect for this.
The same tactic was used in the original silent version of Ben-Hur.

In older MGM cartoons such as Tom and Jerry, humans are only shown from the legs down, with an occasional shaken finger for emphasis.
However, In the uncensored version of Saturday Night Puss (the version that does not feature June Foray's character), Mammy Two-Shoes is finally seen in-full for a split second as she runs home to stop Tom's raucous party.

And, of course, the ultimate example, Charlie, from Charlie's Angels. He usually appears as The Voice, but has sometimes appeared as The Faceless in several episodes and only finally reveals himself to the Angels during the final episode, "Let Our Angel Live" when he shows up at the hospital to be by Kelly's side after she is shot.

In BoJack Horseman, Mr. Peanutbutter often leaves mid-conversation to speak to a never-seen entity only known as Erica. Also, on Tom Jumbo-Grumbo's show, whenever a bad joke is written in Jumbo-Grumbo's script, he blames it all on "Randy", who is also never seen. Some fan theories say that Erica and Randy are the same person.

Hive in his first appearance on Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., where he's referred to as "It" for the entirety of the episode. We do see him as a figure in a black cloak and the corpse of an astronaut, but we don't see his face until the episode "Maveth". It takes even longer to reveal his true form or even his name.

Linderman of Heroes was this for much of the show's run, often referenced with characters seen speaking to him over the phone, or middle men conveying his orders. This makes sense as he's very much the shadowy manipulator but it was actually because the show couldn't afford to have a big star like Malcolm McDowell appear in too many episodes.
This makes it even more strange to see a kind, grandfatherly character as the Big Bad, while we have been assured that "Mr. Linderman" is a truly ruthless, merciless villain. Informed Ability anyone?
Except that he really is an evil manipulator, so he's closer to Affably Evil.

Moonlighting characters often referred to the "Ensalmo Case", which sort of combines this with Noodle Incident: The case was only mentioned in passing. There were no characters named Ensalmo, nor did the case ever come to a close. It's revealed in the Grand Finale that it was never solved.

In the early comics, Mary Jane Watson was only referred to and never fully seen — although one story did feature a brief cameo, we could only see her body and not her face. It would be over two years before readers received their first full glimpse of her in the comics, and Peter (and the audience) is shocked to find out she is actually a very attractive young woman.

Partial example: Tsunade from Naruto always makes herself look much younger than she is, and on the couple of occasions where she was exhausted enough that the illusion fades we're prevented from getting a good look at her. What little we do see implies that she actually looks older than she really is, no doubt due to the life-shortening effect of her ultimate healing technique.

The Phantom is usually wearing a mask or sunglasses; whenever he's not, he's usually shown from behind or has his head out of frame. In-story, anyone who sees his face will die (mainly through Laser-Guided Karma), but his wife and other loved ones are apparently excluded. (In one ancestor story, the current Phantom had died and his son arrived at the Skull Cave to take up the role; he's shown completely, face and all, for several frames. Presumably the curse doesn't take full effect before he dons the suit for the first time, or the comic's readership may have taken a drastic drop in numbers...)

An odd example from Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves: Jing King, the Panda King's daughter, is only ever seen as a silhouette behind a screen. No reason is ever given for this. (It may be a reference to the story, "The Golden Kite, the Silver Wind".)
Sly's father, in games' flashback scenes, is only seen from the legs down.

The Minotaur in House of Leaves is an odd, in-universe instance of this. All that's ever made clear is its presence as it destroys things through its passing, as it never actually appears and whenever it's mentioned the passage is striken out. This appears to be because Zampanò is so freaked out by it that he doesn't want to invoke it. Johnny describes its core elements as darkness, silence and "the obliteration of meaning," which suggests that it is nothingness itself, which would make its appearance inherently paradoxical.

In The Pet Girl of Sakurasou, Ryunosuke, resident in room 102 of Sakura Hall is one of these. Early on, his only interactions with the other characters are over the computer, either via chat room dialogue, or more commonly, a maid AI program that does the speaking for what he's thinking about. He finally appears onscreen in episode 9, and is also visible in the credits.

Rocko's next-door neighbor/unattainable unrequited crush Melba Toast on Rocko's Modern Life. We only see an arm here or a leg there, and she is never seen at all, only mentioned, after the first season (rather cleverly, the comic book played off of the lack of information about Melba in one issue by having her be a successful model... of products which only require the hand or foot to be displayed).

Dragon City has a parody of Batman named Batdragon. His face has never been shown in the comic. This is because the comic isn't about him. This allows the reader to see him as the main characters do and none of them know his real identity.

Toji's sister is mentioned at various points in Neon Genesis Evangelion, and is important enough that she serves as the main reason he becomes a pilot. Despite this, she never actually appears in the series at all. She does however have a very brief non-speaking cameo in the second Rebuild of Evangelion movie. She then becomes an Ascended Extra in the third movie, and is finally given an actual name ("Sakura").
This is true of several other characters. For instance, Hikari mentions several times that she has two sisters, but we never see either of them... at least for a long time. They were first seen as part of a promotional campaign for the opening of the 500 Type EVA train featured in merchandise, and going along with the Theme Naming, they are called Kodama and Nozomi, which along with Hikari are the names of the different speed categories of train used by the Tokaido Shinkansen. They later appeared as a cameo in the kids' mecha anime Shinkalion.

One of the stranger examples of this was in the episode "I Oughta Be in Toons" of the Disney series Bonkers, in which Mickey Mouse is the focal point of the plot (he is kidnapped by an impostor who attempts to sign a large contract with a rival studio) but is never actually shown on screen (except for a brief silhouette toward the beginning) or mentioned by name, only heard from inside the cage in which he had been locked.
Disney had a weird, unwritten policy in the '90s that actually putting Mickey Mouse in cartoons would somehow dilute his iconic marketability. The logic was that if anything he was in was ever regarded as bad, it might hurt the whole company, so it was better to never actually do anything with the character at all. A similar policy was instituted for Kingdom Hearts. This weird policy was thankfully dropped in the 2000s, probably because people began to question just what the hell he actually did besides pose for merchandise.

On The Andy Griffith Show, Goober started out as one of these; his cousin Gomer would tell Andy, "Goober says 'hey,'" when the two men met. Goober finally made an appearance (alongside Gomer) in the season 4 episode "Fun Girls," and after Gomer left for his own show Goober essentially became his Suspiciously Similar Substitute.

From The Big Bang Theory, the mother of Howard Wolowitz. And given her shrilling voice and what we know about her, it sure as hell better stay that way.
In "The Countdown Reflection" she can bee seen from a birds eye view thanks to the Google Earth satellite from Leonard and Sheldon's apartment roof.
In "The Spoiler Alert Segmentation" She is seen through a slightly ajar door 3 times each lasting around a second or two each only her back side is seen as well as the back of her brunette hair.
And her arms during The Stinger.

An odd example occurred in the final season of Static Shock. The Teen Titans were mentioned, which was intended as a nod to the team's then-upcoming TV debut. However, Paul Dini was unaware of the fact that Teen Titans was NOT part of the DC Animated Universe, and thus the crossover that was alluded to never took place.

Mrs. Columbo. Some fans theorize she doesn't exist, partly because some scenes really stretch the feasibility of it (she's nowhere to be seen at the policeman's ball despite Lt. Columbo asserting she'd be there), and partly because it ties into theories about how Columbo solves his cases.

Angela Valentine was a girl in Beaver's class at Grant Avenue Elementary School in Leave It to Beaver. She was mentioned in no fewer than 16 episodes throughout the series' run. Usually concerning her sixth toe or getting sick in class, having a real gold filling, the eating of library paste, winning a tool chest at the local theater, suggesting (and then winning) a class beauty contest, losing her bite plate on the playground, bringing a "baked Alaskan" to the cake sale, getting her extra toe cut off, calling Beaver a "dirty, rotten, smelly old apple," having a birthday party, getting sick in the back of the school bus and wearing a Jackie Kennedy wig to school. (She is shown very briefly in 2 episodes but only from behind and later running or walking by. No one seems to know who played the part.)

Dr. Claw would also been shown in the 1999 live-action movie, in which he is played by actor Rupert Everett. However, his potrayal of the character was a far-cry from the Evil Overlord depicted in the show, being more of a smooth-talking suave businessman. The movie's Direct to Video sequel, Inspector Gadget 2, made him an unseen character once again in an attempt to portray the character more like his cartoon counterpart.

In Super Human Samurai Syber Squad, main character Sam Collins' sister Elizabeth. Sam, who's almost always in the basement, talks to Elizabeth through the laundary chute, and sometimes she drops something down it on his head. The one time she actually comes down into the basement, the power is out and it's pitch black in the basement so we still can't see her. We also never see or hear Sam's parents, though sometimes one of the team is heard talking to them on the way down the basement stairs.

Warcraft:
The Lich King is this for the core campaign of Warcraft III, despite being one of the main villains and having his backstory described in detail in the manual (though to be fair, he is a disembodied spirit sealed inside a block of ice, controlling his minions telepathically). He does show up in the expansion.
Until "Wrath of the Lich King", this was a staple of most of World of Warcraft. The Big Bad was rarely seen other than his or her particular raid encounter.

Dr. Claw from Inspector Gadget is never shown except in an over-the-shoulder shot of him sitting in a high-backed chair which obscures everything except his gloved right fist (although his left arm has also been shown in some episodes). This was played on in the opening, which had Gadget run in and handcuff him... only to reveal that he's really handcuffed a glove attached to a chair with a bomb in it.
In 1992, Tiger Toys released an action figure line based on Inspector Gadget (despite the fact that the show hasn't had new episodes made since 1986, it was still popular thanks to reruns on Nickelodeon). One of the figures was one of Dr. Claw himself, making it the first time his face would be shown in any form. In fact, this revelation was such a huge selling point for the figure, that Tiger covered its face with a sticker on the blister pack, forcing kids to buy the toy if they wanted to see how Dr. Claw looked like. Once unpackaged, the figure revealed Dr. Claw to be an elderly-looking man with wild white hair, a goatee and an angry expression. The only other time this version of Dr. Claw would appear again was in the 1993 Inspector Gadget video game for the Super NES by Hudson Soft, where he appears as the game's final boss. Later revival movies and shows completely ignored this face reveal and kept portraying Dr. Claw as a faceless antagonist.
Dr. Claw would also been shown in the 1999 live-action movie, in which he is played by actor Rupert Everett. However, his potrayal of the character was a far-cry from the Evil Overlord depicted in the show, being more of a smooth-talking suave businessman. The movie's Direct to Video sequel, Inspector Gadget 2, made him an unseen character once again in an attempt to portray the character more like his cartoon counterpart.

Anonymous. Or at least the "true" face of Anonymous (which is everyone and no one, simultaneously). If one must illustrate Anonymous, the most popular images are a Guy Fawkes mask, a headless man wearing a suit, or a green-headed featureless man in a grey suit and red tie.

In The X-Files, Mulder often made calls to someone at the FBI named "Danny", requesting warrants, paperwork, or other small but difficult-to-retrieve items they needed in the field. Sometimes Scully called Danny, and once John Dogget did as well. However, audiences never got to see Danny. The closest Chris Carter ever got to a character description was once during an interview when he joked that Danny was a gnome that lived in Mulder's desk.

Played with in Something*Positive. Mike's son is shown occasionally, but his FACE never is. He's supposedly grotesquely ugly, but you have to take the characters' words for it. It is eventually lampshaded in The Reveal. We never see the kid's face as anything younger than a toddler, though.

Fire Lord Ozai from Avatar: The Last Airbender isn't clearly shown for the first two seasons. Most of the time he was a shadow behind a curtain or too far away to be seen in detail, or only his back or legs were shown. When his face is finally revealed to the audience, he turns out to be a surprisingly handsome man. Subsequent appearances are used to demonstrate that, appearances aside, Ozai is as monstrous and evil as they come.

Disney had a weird, unwritten policy in the '90s that actually putting Mickey Mouse in cartoons would somehow dilute his iconic marketability. The logic was that if anything he was in was ever regarded as bad, it might hurt the whole company, so it was better to never actually do anything with the character at all. A similar policy was instituted for Kingdom Hearts. This weird policy was thankfully dropped in the 2000s, probably because people began to question just what the hell he actually did besides pose for merchandise.

Halo: Despite being clearly seen in Halo 2, the Gravemind is never seen beyond its tentacles in Halo 3, much to the annoyance of many fans. To some degree, though, we do see it. Some hints suggest that after taking over the Covenant capital of High Charity, the Gravemind grew and merged with it; essentially, Gravemind is High Charity at that point.

LEGO outright forbid the BIONICLE writers to give away what the Great Beings look like. Since the story was mostly told in written form, this wasn't a problem. In two instances, though, the writers used this trope to bend the rules — images in the Mata Nui Saga included tiny silhouettes of them, and a pre-existing toy of another character was retroactively revealed to have been a disguised Great Being. The latter is a Double Subversion, since while it's a tangible representation of a GB, it's explicitly not their real form.

Seinfeld had several, most notably George's Boss George Steinbrenner, whose face is never seen, Kramer's never-seen friends Bob Sacamano and Lomez, and Jerry's cousin Jeffrey, about whom Uncle Leo talks constantly.
George Steinbrenner was then real part owner and managing partner of the Yankees when George supposedly worked for the team. Steinbrenner was in the news a lot, and everyone knew what he looked like. Rather than try and get the real Steinbrenner to play himself, or find an actor who looked uncannily like him, whom audiences would accept, the producers chose to use someone who just looked like Steinbrenner from the back.

The Red Green Show:
Red's wife Berince was never seen (except in a Christmas special near the series end).
Dalton's wife Ann Marie also went unseen for most of the show, but was later upgraded to The Voice.
Actually, the show was full of these people. There were a number of lodge members who were alwayso talked about but never seen, mainly Moose Thompson and Old Man Segewick.
For that matter there were often entire episodes in which unseen characters would have significant roles.

The Maltese Falcon (1941):
Floyd Thursby, (one of) the murder victim(s).
The audience never sees who shoots Miles Archer; all we see is a hand raising a gun, the shot, and him falling backward, as Sam Spade later describes the aftermath, "with his gun tucked away in his hip and his overcoat buttoned". It's this that helps Sam figure out who the killer of both men was.

Captain Mainwaring's wife Elizabeth from Dad's Army, who is apparently much scarier than the Nazis. We get the briefest of glimpses in one episode where the two are lying in bunks, with the captain on the bottom. Above him in the top bunk is an extraordinarily massive indentation, suggesting a mountain of a woman.

On Sports Night, Luther Sachs was the owner of Continental Corp, which owned Continental Sports Channel, which broadcast the titular Show Within a Show. Though there were many times he was referenced (through such things as people having to take a call from him or having to go meet him, etc.) he was never seen or heard.

M*A*S*H: Sparky, the radio operator at I-Corps who Radar or Klinger often speaks with, pretty much fits this trope... although he did make a single, brief appearance in the season 1 episode "Tuttle".
The characters' loved ones back in the States, obviously...although some of them did "appear" via home movie, including Henry's wife Lorraine, Frank's wife Louise, B.J.'s wife Peg, and Radar's mother (played by Gary Burghoff in drag).
B.J.'s wife Peg appears again in the surreal episode "Dreams", in a depressing Nightmare Sequence that is meant to show how much he misses her and how he believes the war has pulled him away from her. Naturally, everyone else is suffering a case of this throughout this particular episode.
In the "Run for the Money" episode, Charles gets a tape recording from his sister Honoria, so we get to hear her voice (which includes a bad stutter).
Colonel Potter's wife in the states, Mildred, does not appear in the main series (save as a photograph on his desk), but is a regular character (played by two different actresses) in the short-lived spin-off AfterMASH.

On Lost:
One of the main things keeping viewers in suspense from the very first episode onwards was the true nature and appearance of the "monster", an enigmatic creature with terrifying distinct roars and the capacity to uproot trees and brutally mutilate. For a long time, the camera refuses to get a shot of the monster and we were kept in suspense of what it was. That is, until we got a very brief glimpse of it in the first season finale, and we finally begin to get a clear shot of it in the second season.
By the end of the series, this turns out to be Subverted: we saw the Monster repeatedly throughout the first season, except we didn't know it was the Monster because we didn't yet know it had the ability to do a Dead Person Impersonation.
There's also the mysterious Jacob. After frequently being mentioned and painted as a powerful figure in seasons 3-5 but never appearing, we had no idea who he was (and if he was even real at all), until the human form of the monster dropped a Wham Line revealing the existence and appearance of Jacob.

In the original Peanuts specials, adults were never seen (and only heard as "Mwah-wah" sounds, making them also The Unintelligible), although on at least one occasion the unseen teacher's hand was shown giving a paper to Peppermint Patty.
A few specials and one of the movies showed adults. The Little Red-Haired Girl occasionally put in an appearance, under various designs.

Due to bizarre rights issues (as well as a desire to focus on lesser-known heroes), Superman and Wonder Woman were barred from appearing in the first few seasons of Batman: The Brave and the Bold. They were partially seen in one episode, but didn't make proper appearances until the final season. Superman was also usually alluded to via nicknames like "Big Blue" rather than his actual name.

In Bob's Burgers, Linda frequently mentions and talks on the phone with her best friend, Ginger. Her voice is never heard and she is almost never seen; when she is, she is only shown from the back. In "Clear and Present Ginger", Linda spends the entire episode preparing for a visit from Ginger while the rest of the family is out. Ginger's arrival is constantly delayed, and when she only shows up at the very end, she is again only seen from the back, as well as a silhouette during the credits. The Season 1 episode "Hamburger Dinner Theatre" briefly shows Linda out with two friends, one of whom wears the same clothes as Ginger in her proper "appearances", leading to theories from fans that this woman was Ginger, but this was never confirmed.

Cow and Chicken parodied this one — the (human) parents of the title characters didn't exist above their waist. This was only shown twice: in the pilot, and in an episode of I Am Weasel (its spinoff), "Who Rubbed Out Cow and Chicken?" However, their shadows turned up too, and photos of them were of their upside-down legs.
One episode played with this; Chicken, rummaging through the closet, pulls out what appear to be the upper halves of a man and a woman, possibly their parents. After a stunned second, Cow says it's from an old school project.

In the first two seasons of Rugrats, Chuckie's mom was presumed to be alive, and would be referenced periodically. It wasn't until the Mother's Day episode that she was finally seen, and the revelation came that she was dead.
In earlier episodes Grandpa Lou would often refer to his younger brother "Sparky" whom he had a lot of crazy stories about including one where he supposedly sucked on a bottle for "15 years", we never saw him.

Averted in The Ambition of Oda Nobuna with Himiko, who is also a girl by making her a Captain Ersatz: She is "the head of Yamato court" and said to be an incarnation of the Gods who built Japan, something any Japanese would immediately associated with the empress—but she was never referred to as the empress of Japan. She's also notable to be the only character of the series when the number of fan-art (erotic or otherwise) about her can be counted on a single hand.

Don Pardo announced the prizes on many game shows, and the cast on Saturday Night Live during the '70s, without ever appearing on-camera. One SNL skit lampshaded this by having Pardo appear as, literally, an invisible man; auditioning for the SNL announcer gig ("Don Pardo? Is he still alive?"), his invisible presence sits down in a swivel chair which visibly moves and audibly creaks.
Subverted on the NBC episodes of The Price Is Right, as he would occasionally be seen on camera as a substitute host whenever regular host Bill Cullen was either sick or on vacation.
Also subverted for much of the 1980s on WNBC, NBC's flagship station- he announced their Live at Five newscast from 1980 until around 1990 (and made a return for its' last edition in 1991 (it's been revived a few times since, though)), and starting around 1984, he'd be seen on-camera doing the announcement live.

The Soldier in White from Catch-22. A hospital patient so covered in bandages that no one knows anything about him. No one even realizes when he dies, until a nurse takes his temperature and he doesn't have one. One soldier speculates there's nothing under the bandages, he's just a hollow plaster shell.
Also, the Dead Man in Yossarian's Tent (Lt. Mudd). He died on a mission before officially checking in at the base, therefore the army brass refuse to admit he ever existed, causing a paperwork nightmare.

Peanuts:
Adults were seen exactly once: Some adults are partially shown in an early strip depicting Charlie Brown and Lucy at a golf tournament.
In a few early strips Linus and Lucy's parents (and blanket-hating grandmother) can be "heard" off-panel, and the kids' schoolteachers are heard (albeit as trombone music) in the animated specials (with the exception of "She's A Good Skate, Charlie Brown", which featured an actual voice).
The Little Red-Haired Girl is also never seen, except once in silhouette, this was to show Charlie Brown's hopelessness in longing for her. (She is seen in one of the specials, It's Your First Kiss, Charlie Brown, although this was deemed non-canonical by Charles Schulz.)
Also Snoopy's nemesis, The Cat Next Door aka World War II. Although some fans believe that Brutus from Race for Your Life, Charlie Brown fits the description of the Cat Next Door.

The physical incarnation of this particular trope is undoubtedly Wilson from Home Improvement. If it wasn't the fence hiding his mouth, it was a tree branch, a grill, other people, a Santa beard, or even a yam!

Spider-Man:
In the early comics, Mary Jane Watson was only referred to and never fully seen — although one story did feature a brief cameo, we could only see her body and not her face. It would be over two years before readers received their first full glimpse of her in the comics, and Peter (and the audience) is shocked to find out she is actually a very attractive young woman.
Before he was revealed to be Norman Osborn, any time the Green Goblin wasn't wearing his mask, his back was either turned to the reader or his face was almost completely shrouded in shadows.
Likewise with the Hobgoblin, who trod a lot of familiar ground in his debut.

Most of the characters' parents in Tiny Toon Adventures were like this; if they were shown at all, it was from the waist down. The notable exceptions were Hamton's parents (seen in The Movie), Elmyra's entire family, Calamity Coyote's dad, and Plucky's dad.

The Royle Family, which rarely leaves the confines of one house, creates a whole community of characters only ever described by the core cast. Chiefly; Jim and Barbara's neighbour 'Leggings' Lorraine, the housebound Elsie (who lives in the same flats as 'Nana' Norma and whose eventual death provides the background to an episode in the third series) and Dave's best friends Tony Macca and Gary. Most memorable though is Tony's supposedly tarty - and well-endowed - younger sister, Beverley.
Some characters are talked about in several episodes before we do eventually get a glimpse of them, including Anthony's best friend Darren and girlfriend Emma (plus her parents). Dave's parents were also regularly mentioned but didn't appear onscreen until the 2008 Christmas special. In addition, crucial aspects of Norma's character are introduced in the very first episode, when she makes a phone call to the Royle household, but it's not until later in the series that we see and hear her.

Starswirl the Bearded in My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic, at least initially. He had been mentioned numerous times, was responsible for creating spells which fueled the plot of several episodes, Twilight dressed up as him for Nightmare Night, and he's a Distaff Counterpart of an earlier generation character, but nothing about his appearance or personality was known for a while (which spawned a fan theory that he eventually became Discord). It was later averted when he was extensively depicted in the comics and shown in a flashback in season four's two-parter finale Twilight's Kingdom (albeit stylized), in Three's a Crowd (also stylized), and finally in season seven's two-parter finale Shadow Play (this time in flesh and even interacting with the main cast, with a backstory behind his absence).

Doctor Who:
The creatures inside the Daleks fitted this trope for the first few years of the show's run, with only the occasional (and often contradictory) hint as to their true nature. A hand was seen in the first story, a "time-destructed" octopus in the fourth, and so on. This added considerably to their menace.
Justified in that the Daleks have altered themselves many times, sometimes through natural evolution and sometimes by deliberate choice. Somewhat ironically for a species so dedicated to racial purity (and often leading to wars between almost identical sub-species).
It got so extreme that even the creators of the Long Runner show apparently forgot/didn't know that there was something inside and referred to them as a race of robots in one serial.
Queen Elizabeth II made fairly frequent non-appearances. It's partly a running joke, partly because they likely didn't want to have someone playing her onscreen and it obviously not being her. Hence why in "Silver Nemesis", she's played by a lookalike shot from far away. (They'd originally wanted Prince Edward to play himself, but he graciously declined.)
The Silence played this role during Series 5, with their presence only being alluded to by the term "Silence Will Fall" or some variation of it. They are later revealed to be the ones responsible for blowing up the Doctor's TARDIS in the penultimate episode of Series 5, "The Pandorica Opens".
The Silence have aliens that work for them called "Silents", which are aliens that are forgotten about the moment you turn away from them. So with that in mind, who's to say that these Silents were there all along in Series 5, but were just forgotten about? But what about the fact that they were never seen onscreen, you may ask? Who's to say that the viewers didn't also forget about these Silents as well?

The man directing the criminal organization in The Testament of Dr. Mabuse is only shown as a silhouette behind a curtain giving orders. It's later revealed that the man behind the curtain is just a cardboard cutout and a radio; the head of the psych hospital, who has become obsessed with patient Mabuse's titular "crime manual", has been remotely directing the organization the whole time.

Eddy in Ed, Edd n Eddy often spoke highly of his brother, who never appeared until the finale movie.
Also adults in general they sometimes mention their parents and talk to them but we never see them except in one episode where we see Ed and Eddy's parents' hands drag them away over bad report cards, in the episodes where they're in school the teachers and faculty are also unseen.
Adults do finally appear during a bus scene in the movie finale, but they are only seen from the waists down and none of them actually speak.

In Doug, Principal Buttsavitch was mentioned but never shown. In the "Doug Graduates" (part of the last episode before Disney took over the show, not counting the Christmas special), Doug and Roger actively searched for him so that they could get some words of reassurance, since they were nervous about graduating, but they never actually found him. Also, Skunky Beaumont was a character who was often mentioned but never seen. He appeared in Disney's Doug, and he is portrayed as practically an expy of Jeff Spicoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

Fantastic Four: Ben Grimm often speaks fondly of his dear Aunt Petunia, but for decades she was never seen. Finally, issue #239 featured her in person. It's revealed that she is a young woman married to Ben's Uncle Jake. Another couple of decades later, she is Stuffed in the Fridge.

If the titular mother in How I Met Your Mother does make appearances, we never see her face. In "Girls vs. Suits", Ted sees her ankle. In "No Pressure", only the back of her covered head is shown. In "No Tomorrow", the yellow umbrella is covering half of her body and she is wearing jeans.
Until the Season 8 Finale, when we finally get to see her face.

Dream's real appearance is unknown. He has shown rare photos of himself (naturally hiding his face, of course) that reveals he has dirty blond/brown hair, but that's the extent of what he's revealed.

The supposed god in 10,000 BC makes sure no ones sees him to add to his whole mystique. He even has all blind servants.

The game show Inquizition was hosted by a mysterious, shadowy figure known only as "The Inquizitor" whose main job was to belittle and goad the contestants. To this day, it is unknown who portrayed him.

Frasier:
Maris. The creators had initially planned to show her, but the descriptions of her made her so monstrous that after a few seasons, they couldn't think of a way to show her without underselling the character.
Also the source of a hilarious subplot involving Niles getting a pet whippet that everyone agrees is basically a canine Maris — this is basically the closest the audience ever gets to seeing the woman.
Except that we did see a heavily bandaged-up Maris in a flashback in one episode set in a hospital, but it was brief and she was almost entirely covered up. Another episode showed us her silhouette against a shower curtain.
Queen [1] does make one appearance in an episode, in a dream sequence where Daphne is horrified to see her on the balcony enjoying a barbecue with Marty. She is played by an unconvincing impersonator, mind you.

In Planes, Trains and Automobiles, it appears that Del's wife is this trope. We find out at the end it's much sadder.

Friends has "Ugly Naked Guy" who is blessedly always off-camera. The only time "Ugly Naked Guy" appeared on-screen, he was shot from the back (and thankfully above the waist).

XANA from Code Lyoko. As an artificial intelligence, he solely exists as a program inside supercomputers. Hence he never takes a visible form, but his influence is certainly felt, symbolized by the ever-present "Eye of XANA" logo. There is one point where XANA does appear physically, but takes on Jérémie's appearance, and another episode where he appears in Franz Hopper's form. It's debatable that XANA also appears in the form of a black shadow with the logo on it.

Quite a few of the bigger players in FLCL are never shown, including Medical Mechanica, Haruko's higher-ups, and Naota's older brother. (Even when there's a picture of him, his face is never shown.)
The Pirate King Atomsk is unseen until almost the very end. Even Amarao's earlier mental picture of him has his back to the audience and Amarao is completely wrong about what he looks like anyway.

Zoey Proasheck was this for a long time due to her intense anxiety and privacy fears, and was famously the only main member of the Yogscast to never appear on camera. However, since 2014, she has been doing all she can to subvert this, initially posting some pictures on Twitter and moving on to scattershot livestream appearances. Eventually, during the 2015 holiday streams, she appeared on the main channel to sing karaoke live with her girlfriend and hosted a stream that included both extended camera segments and a permanent facecam as a donation reward.
