A standard gadget in the Mad Scientist grab bag. The Hypno Ray allows the user to instantly hypnotize an unsuspecting target and make that person do their evil bidding. Often a Ray Gun, but the magical version usually takes the form of Eye Beams. The sequence follows a standard progression: The Mad Scientist flashes the Hypno Ray, instantly stunning the victim. The victim displays Mind-Control Eyes and usually starts repeating anything the attacker says, often to his annoyance. The victim hears a suggestion that he must follow (often not what the attacker intended). The Hypno Ray shuts off and the victim wonders what just happened. The Mad Scientist realises a mistake in what he has said and has to flash them again. The victim later hears the trigger and takes the action, no matter how inappropriate it may be at the time. This can often be combined with a mass media event to Take Over the World. Such ray guns in fiction these days are reserved just for comedic works, as it's pretty hard to take it seriously anymore. Hypnotism in general has been getting a lot of scrutiny as a technique since the turn of the millennium. For one, you can only be hypnotized if you want to be hypnotized. And that's if you're not one of the people who can't be hypnotized at all (even if they want to be). Also, hypnotism can't make people do things that they wouldn't normally do, so telling a hypnotized person to (for instance) attack someone they love would just snap them out of it. Finally, the various methods to induce hypnotism usually involve deep relaxation or intense eye focus, things that a ray gun simply wouldn't be able to do. While Mind Control and its various tropes are still around, using a beam from a Mad Scientist to do it has gradually fallen out of style in favor of being parodied, subverted or deconstructed. A Sub-Trope of Mind-Control Device. See Also: Hypno Fool, Charm Person, Jedi Mind Trick, Weak-Willed, Hypno Trinket. Not to be confused with Hypnotic Eyes. |

On WordGirl, Mr. Big has a mind control ray which is used for farcical reasons - one of which was making everyone in town use huge words in order to occupy the heroine. Even the title character is not immune to this trope, but usually snaps out of it within seconds. | |

Used at least twice on The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron, Boy Genius. Once used by Beautiful Gorgeous to control Secret Agent Man Jet Fusion, but it failed when hundreds of people said the trigger words at the same time. Jimmy also used one to force his parents to think it was his birthday, but they tricked him to teach him a lesson. They later try to justify it: After Jimmy uses his Hypno-beam to disable the Mad Scientist's Beautiful Daughter, his partner mentions that he didn't think hypnotism worked like that. Jimmy responds that the weak-willed are easily swayed by flashy special effects. Ironically, she hypnotizes Jimmy in a later episode. |

In the earliest issues of Perry Rhodan, handheld "psycho-ray" weapons of Arkonide manufacture make for convenient plot devices in helping the protagonist set up his own small but powerful new nation-state on an Earth involved in a three-sided Cold War at the time. As amusing as some of the results may be, the abuse potential becomes obvious early on (an attacking fighter pilot that the user didn't mean to kill nonetheless dies from not snapping out of his trance after a hurried command to "pull up!" in time, causing his plane to stall out and crash with him still in it) and so it's perhaps unsurprising that this particular bit of phlebotinum later quietly drops out of sight. | |

Parodied in the South Park episode "The Return of Chef" where Chef is brainwashed by the Super Adventure Club to want to molest children. While the club leader explains the purpose of their group, they ask if the boys want to accompany them on their next trip. When they say no, he says maybe he should ask again and points a hypnotizer at them. When that attempt fails, he admits it doesn't work on everyone. They later explain to a psychiatrist that the Super Adventure Club convinced Chef that having sex with children was okay with a little thing that goes whrrrrrr. | |

Mickey Mouse Comic Universe: The first villains to appear in the comics were a trinity of Mad Scientist apes named Professors Ecks, Doublex (or Duplex), and Triplex who wanted to use one hyptonic beam to Take Over the World. They appeared in the "Blaggard Castle" storyline of daily strips, published in 1933. A more modern story had the Phantom Blot pretend to be one of the Professors come back to try and rebuild & reuse the hypno-ray, after the castle had been rebuilt as an honor for Mickey. |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer season six episode "Dead Things" features a dramatic subversion, at least as far as the comedic setting goes. Nerd supervillain Warren invents a mind control device and uses it on his ex-girlfriend, allowing the geek trio to dress her up as a French maid and generally be laughably adolescent about the whole thing. Then the story makes a swift plunge into darkness when Warren commands his ex to give him oral sex; she comes out of the trance and accuses the trio of attempted rape, and is brutally killed by Warren when she tries to escape. | |

Not so much a ray as it is an audible tone, the main character of The Chronicles of Professor Jack Baling is on the receiving end of one of these at the beginning of Episode 2. | |

In one episode of Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers, Fat Cat and his cronies use a hypnotic device to capture sturgeons and make them think they're chickens so they'd lay eggs every daynote Sturgeons only laying eggs once a year and allow Fat Cat to corner the market on caviar. Chip and Dale turn the tables on them by using the device to make Fat Cat's men think they were dogs. | |
