You've heard of rats in the walls, but what about people?
Inside a Wall is when a character finds themselves between the walls or ceilings of a building. Reasons for this include:
A character was already inside the wall (doing maintenance, looking for something etc.) when they became stuck.
The character wants to spy on someone (like through a peephole).
The character is using the walls as an alternative route.
Someone has trapped the character in the wall as punishment.
A stray animal like a puppy or kitten is stuck in the wall, or vermin like rats and mice.
Someone traps themselves in a wall to commit suicide.
The person in the walls is dead, and someone else stuffed the corpse there.
The trope is often in the comedy genre, since the visual act of being stuck in a wall is so absurd. Another version is when someone is above the ceiling to ogle others creepily, which usually ends with the person breaking through the ceiling. In rare occasions, it appears in the horror genre and the character who is hiding does so insidiously. While this can be comic, that falls under Secret Squatter.
In classic Hollywood fashion, the walls are usually spacious enough for the person to walk around freely. There may even be abundant light that allows them to see perfectly.
Compare Air-Vent Passageway, Chimney Entry, Portrait Painting Peephole, Ceiling Cling. A subtrope would be Constructive Body Disposal.

A running gag has shots that pan from one room to another cut through walls or floors to show items and creatures inside of them that really shouldn't be there. Residents of the Simpsons family's intramurary spaces seen this way include blocks of asbestos, piles of treasure, an active tape recorder with a microphone, wiretaps from assorted government agencies (and the KGB), the family cat, hatching dinosaur eggs, dancing mice, the skeletal remains of Santa's elves, and the fish-man from The Shape of Water. A shot in the elementary school also shows a living rattlesnake in its floorspaces.

The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest: "The Haunted Sonata" has the ghost of a young woman take revenge against the descendant of the man who had taken credit for her work and caused her death, as he was about to murder her descendant. She ends up bricking him up in the same wall where her skeleton was buried just as the eye sockets began to glow red. We're later informed that when he was pulled from the wall, he'd gone insane.

The Super Mario 64 DS parody Mario Dy Es took the part of the game where Yoshi's friends were trapped inside the castle walls literally. With Mario, Luigi, and Wario (even few mooks) in poorly constructed walls in the castle, their limbs sticking out and flailing.

The Simpsons:

"Treehouse of Horror VI": Subverted. In the segment "Homer³", Patty and Selma are coming over and Homer tries to find a place to hide. He finds a spot behind the bookcase, but ends up going through a portal in the wall. He ends up in a 3D world with an Art Shift, but can still be heard calling out from beyond. At first everyone believes that he is inside the wall, until Professor Frink explains Homer's situation.
"Pray Anything": The kitchen's drywall collapses, and it's revealed that Maggie was hidden behind it for some reason.
"Gal of Constant Sorrow": Homer has to fix a hole on the kitchen wall. Surprisingly, Homer does a perfect job... except he left Snowball II trapped inside the wall. When he finally rescues the cat, he realises Santa's Little Helper is now stuck inside.

Kickin' It: In "Dude Where's My Sword?" they hold a party at the dojo without Rudy's permission but it gets out of control. They leave Jerry and Eddie to clean up the mess. When all that's left is a huge stain on the wall Jerry decides the best way to clean it is from inside the wall. It's only after he gets in there that he realises he has no idea how to get out. He is trapped in there until the end of the episode, which is how Rudy finds out about the party.

Resident Evil 7: Biohazard: There are passages you go through by shimmying between the walls in both the Baker's main house and in the decrepit Old House. The former is noteworthy for being the first time you're able to fully give Jack the slip for an appreciable stretch of gameplay (since he can't fit inside to follow you), while the latter is memorable for being infested with what seems like hundreds of centipedes, causing Ethan to drop a Cluster F-Bomb as they crawl over him.

Columbo: One episode has the murderer hide the victim's body inside a bathroom wall while his mansion is undergoing renovations. The body was first put inside a garment bag meant for fur coats to prevent the smell of decay from escaping. The bag was added to a space near the shower stall, likely meant for plumbing and drainage pipes, then hidden behind fiberglas insulation. The workmen suspected nothing, and continued to plaster and tile the walls.

The Secret World: The mission "Science And The Arts" reveals that Innsmouth Academy has been designed to provide the staff and students with a reliable source of Anima with which to do magic. Unfortunately, that source of Anima is a number of unwilling victims that were bricked into the walls of the Academy at precise locations, unable to die and fully aware. Unfortunately, your employers want the Academy and its secrets preserved for as long as possible, so the mission requires you to prevent the unfortunate victims from attempting a jailbreak.

Paper Mario: The Origami King: Throughout the game, three separate characters (Olivia, Luigi, and the Origami Craftsman) are stuck inside of walls. Due to the paper theme of the game, all Mario needs to do is peel away part of the wall to free them.

The Haunting of Hill House (2018): Hugh believes he has a rat problem after he hears scratching behind one of the brick walls. He takes a few bricks out to put in rat poison, then photographs the inside to assess the damage. He realises there's a skeleton inside and calls the authorities. They determine it to be Henry Hill, who disappeared mysteriously in the 20's. The man killed himself by building a wall and effectively trapping himself to die.

Doom has a cheat code that allows a player character to "ghost" into walls. It's called "No Clipping Mode Off." While inside a wall, the player's view is greatly distorted, and the player cannot hurt any enemies in the map. Curiously, if No Clipping is restored, the player cannot move laterally, as though embedded in the wall, but can rotate in place. It's like spinning in one's grave, but vertically.

In a fundraising livestream for Half-Life but the AI is Self-Aware, the Science Team attempts to break into the White House to save Tommy, only to discover he has escaped already and is “scurrying around in the walls like a rat!� The rest of the adventure becomes a race against the clock to find him before he dies of asbestos poisoning. It Makes Just As Much Sense In Context.

King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow: Prince Alexander is informed of hidden passages inside the Castle of the Crown's walls by a ghost child, using them to communicate with his beloved Princess Cassima and find out what the villain is up to. This only comes into play if you're on the game's hard path, though; otherwise Alex needs to sneak around in plain sight while avoiding the guard dogs.
