The heroes have fought the monster, given it some good licks, but the monster isn't done yet. It pauses for a moment to hiss or screech loudly with its fangs out, its arms outstretched and claws extended, before leaping offscreen. Perhaps it just wanted to get the last word in. Time for the heroes to pursue. Maybe it wants to frighten the heroes away, or just wants to vent some rage at being beaten up by mere humans. Whatever the case, it's Villain: Exit, Stage Left! Mostly, it's animal monsters that do this, though vampires and aliens are also fond of hissing before fleeing. Occasionally, anything that cause a burning reaction or Glamour Failure is sure to make the creature hiss before fleeing. The exit counterpart to Roar Before Beating. It seems like while monsters roar to say hello, they hiss to say goodbye. This is a very common trope, possibly an Undead Horse Trope. It appears to be based on the idea that all animals are cats. Variants for more humanoid villains include scowling or shaking a fist, often while spewing "Curse you!" or some other Badbutt insult. |

Finn of all people does this in Adventure Time after Princess Bubblegum accidentally on purpose cuts his cheek when he tries to steal her crown with a pair of scissors she was using to cut the limbs off of miniature candy people. In another episode, Peppermint Butler does this when he comes into the room and sees a very ill Princess Bubblegum who has actually been possessed by the Lich. |

Shelob does something very like this trope after Sam cuts her a good one in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, although her "voice" is pretty much nothing but hissing in any case. | |

The Simpsons: In "Bart Sells His Soul", Bart does this when he is caught trying to buy Ralph Wiggum's soul. For bonus points, he disappears into smoke like a supernatural being and his eyes are briefly reptillian-slitted. Another Simpsons example is Hugo in one of the Halloween specials. Still another example has bunch of comic convention nerds scrounging in a trash can, who look up with red eyes and hiss when a flashlight beam falls on them, causing them to run away. |

In the Justice League Christmas Episode 'Comfort and Joy', Martian Manhunter has been invited to the Kents' for Christmas. J'onn is given Kara's room to sleep in. (She's off skiing with her friend Barbara). While taking in the incredibly different décor, he's approached by a cat, which he attempts to greet warmly. "Kitty." The cat does this trope, clearly unused to martians. | |

'Salem's Lot: Happens a few time as the protagonists protect themselves to ward off the rising vampire threat. One of the more notable ones is the encounter with Marijorie Glick after she dies from blood loss and is taken to the morgue, with Ben and Bill waiting to see if she would revive. Sure enough, she does and nearly attacks them but the two manage to drive her back with a cross to which hisses at them before using her powers to merge into the shadows and flee. | |

Siren (2018): Ryn does this often before she learns how to speak English. She doesn't want to deal with all the weird looks humans give her for her obviously inhuman behavior, so a good hiss gets them off her back. | |

XCOM: Enemy Unknown and XCOM 2 does this when you "activate" an alien pod by coming within sight range of it - a brief cinematic will play of the aliens reacting to your presence before they get a free move to duck into cover (or not, in the case of Muton Berserkers or Chryssalids). This is particularly appropriate in the case of Thin Men, which are Snake People genetically-engineered to look somewhat human, and tend to properly hiss when revealed. | |

When confronted by Van Helsing and company and beginning to feed on a small boy, the newly turned Lucy in Dracula throws the child to the ground, "growling over it as a dog growls over a bone." Shortly afterwards, the vampiric Lucy is driven back by Van Helsing's crucifix. She isn't described as hissing at this point, but does have a mouth grown "to an open square, as in the passion masks of the Greeks and Japanese." | |

A non-horrific (and funnier) variant occurs at the end of Big Daddy when Vanessa realizes that Sonny and all his friends have just found she fell on hard times and had to become a scantily-clad Hooters girl...after having taunted Sonny back when they were a couple that she would go on to have a successful career and he'd always be lazy and worthless (oh, and to make the scenario even more humiliating, Sonny's a lawyer by this point, and is dressed the part). Vanessa is too proud to betray any mortification, so she just shoots Sonny a Death Glare (pretty much the nonverbal equivalent of this trope) and then runs off. | |

Total Undead Drama: A turned Sadie and Sugar try to ambush Trent and Izzy when they explore a cellar of Storm's manor. The latter two manage to ward them back and Sadie settles into into making small talk with the pair while keeping her distance from their stakes. Sugar however doesn't bother to stick around, having already died once from being fed on, and leaves. | |

Hellsing. Episode 7, Duel has the scene where Vatican priests tell Integra that their paladin is about to ambush their soldiers in the subway, right when Integra and Alucard were about to kill said priests in a museum. Integra doesn't actually hiss, but she does make a similar noise, give one hell of a mean glare, and promptly spins around and walks away (retreating) defiantly, followed by Alucard who does something very similar. Subversion seeing as they're the good guys. | |

Dracula: Ruler of the Night: In the climax, the hunters find out that Dracula had taken over the manor of a fellow friend of the Westernas after losing Carfax Abby and invade it for a final showdown. No sooner than they get in, said friend and initial owner of the manor, Mrs. Petri whom not surprisingly has been turned and made into one of Dracula's newest vampire bride, tries an attempted ambush and fails when the crosses they wield ward her back. She hisses at them and retreats via flipping back a few times like a gymnast before jumping to a wall and wall crawling out of sight, much to the disturbance of the hunters. | |

Bram Stoker's Dracula: Lucy again this time in the crypt. Once again Helsing thrusts a cross at her to force her back into her coffin. She hisses all the way, only stopping when she vomits blood at him. | |

Played for laughs in South Park in the episode where Butters thought he'd turned into a vampire. He does this because he thinks it sounds menacing. It was actually hilarious, which made it even funnier when people were genuinely shocked by it. | |

The Brides of Dracula: The Baron does this when Helsing first confronts him and gets warded off by his cross, ultimately rushing out of his chateau and escaping via a coach. Later, after Gina is drained, turns and revives in the horse stables where Marianne unwittingly has come to pay her last respects. She hisses when Helsing arrives and interrupts her attempt to have Marianne join her to go see the Baron, fleeing when Helsing focuses on catching a fainted Marianne. | |

Parodied by Pee Wee Herman in Pee-wee's Big Adventure: He is stalking down the street on a rainy night, slowly going insane from the theft of his bicycle. A group of gang members walk up and threaten him - and Pee-Wee frightens them off with a feral hiss. | |
