When a truly terrifying danger rears its ugly head, maybe a monster appears or a large object is about to fall on them, one of the female characters stands there and screams helplessly, necessitating that one of the heroes pull her out of harm's way. Or she dies. Is guaranteed to become even more annoying when said female character sees something dangerous, and stands and screams for the hero to help when they would have had plenty of time to get out of the way themselves. Not necessarily limited to the Damsel in Distress, but can be infuriating if the character is supposed to be a hardened Action Girl. Contrast with Screaming Warrior (a badass fighter screams to psych himself/herself up and/or cause fear in his/her enemies) and Screams Like a Little Girl (a man who issues a comically high-pitched scream when danger rears its ugly head). Compare Hysterical Woman. Also see Super Scream, when the scream is superpowered and weaponized. A woman's scream is a powerful auditory bomb: nothing conveys terror quite like it. However, it can easily become Narmful when overused, especially if Stock Screams are used. See Eek, a Mouse!! for one example of something that can trigger this phenomenon. Actresses frequently cast in the role of the Screaming Woman are often called "Scream Queens". |

In Deathtrap, Myra's reaction to almost anything unexpected is to shriek at the top of her lungs, even doing so when Sidney opens the French windows to reveal absolutely nothing. It is very annoying. As she's being set up for a Fright Deathtrap, it's presumably to show she's easily frightened. | |

Cordelia, though less so after she moves to the spin-off Angel and toughens up. Played for Laughs in "Theres No Place Like Plrtz Glrb". Cordelia screams when Lorne's decapitated head starts talking to her. Lorne patiently tells Cordy to get it out of her system, but when the scream goes on and on without stopping, he tells her to shut up because he no longer has the hands to cover his ears. | |

Employed several times in the first two seasons of Fringe, with opening scenes regularly depicting female nurses screaming at the horrifying case-of-the-week.

Frankenstein: Caroline. She first appears screaming as she flees a monster in what is later revealed to be a scene in the movie they are shooting. She later screams in exactly the same way when the real monster appears. She even screams when Victor von Frankenstein is explaining his family history (and ruins the take). | |

Little Red Riding Hood uses this to get her cape back from the Baker in Into the Woods. A more melodic version ("Ah ha-ah ah-ha...") is used as Rapunzel's main line, especially in "First Midnight" and the finale (she also does the non-melodic version after going insane). | |

Star Trek: Picard: In "Remembrance", Dahj screeches at the top of her lungs after she witnesses her boyfriend being murdered. In "Broken Pieces", all the female Zhat Vash initiates (except for Narissa) cry out in terror and agony when they experience Admonition because their minds can't handle the visions it imparts. In "Et in Arcadia Ego, Part 2", Narissa screams as she falls to her death. |

An impressive subversion occurs in Kingdom of the Spiders when the hot entomologist opens a drawer in her rural Arizona motel room to reveal a live tarantula. Not yet aware she's in a Nature's-revenge flick, she calmly scoops it up and shoos it outside. (According to the IMDB, Tiffany Bolling beat out other actresses for the part because she was able to do this scene without turning into a Real Life example of this trope.) | |

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: The third act of the movie (starting from the moment where Leatherface kills Franklin Hardesty with a chainsaw) is basically a nonstop montage of Sally Hardesty screaming her ass off, justified by what she goes through. In the infamous "dinner" scene, in particular, she never stops screaming as she is strapped on a chair while being forced to watch the cannibals eating food made from her friends' flesh, and it's pure Nightmare Fuel. | |

The Alien franchise: Alien: Lambert, most notably in her final scene when she's paralyzed with fear as the alien advances on her. Ripley screams at the end of the movie, before blowing the alien out the airlock. Newt in Aliens. Excusable though as she is just a little girl facing very real monsters. It also saves her life when she's cocooned awaiting the facehugger. Ripley has found her Tracking Device lying on the floor and breaks down in tears, thinking she's dead. Suddenly she hears Newt scream and thus knows exactly which direction to go. |

King Kong In the original King Kong, Fay Wray spent hours in the recording booth so she could scream in just the right way. It succeeded, producing one very memorable scream. In the Peter Jackson remake (in a scene deleted from the movie but used for the trailer) a fake movie scream by the actress gets an answering roar from the as-yet-unseen King Kong. |

Mentioned in the Enchanted Forest Chronicles. Cimorene's princess training included lessons in how to scream while being carried off by a giant (because being abducted by horrific monsters and rescued by a prince or knight is a major form of matchmaking in the setting). Fortunately for the plot, she's not that kind of princess. | |

Kamen Rider Build doesn't feature a physical woman doing this, but whenever the Crocodile Crack Fullbottle is used to transform or perform a finisher, it's capped off with the sound of a woman's scream. Because, y'know, the Jaws-esque music beforehand and the opening announcement of "DANGER..." didn't do a good enough job of conveying how this thing is bad news. The series then plays this for laughs by using the scream to punctuate the Fullbottle's primary user's atrocious fashion sense. | |

The The BOTS Master episode, "The Duel" had Blitzy Zulander recklessly going by herself into a cave where the Corps were doing an excavation, and suddenly letting out a bone-chilling scream as she went off-screen. It doesn't help that it's never shown what was inside that made her screech in such horror. | |

Abominable: CJ lets out about forty high-pitched screams in five minutes once she sees evidence of Tracy's death and the monster attacks the house. Unusually for the trope, she manages to do some thinking, running, hiding, and fighting back between screams. | |

Subverted in the Batman Beyond episode "Babel". Shriek uses a device that messes with the hearing of everyone in Gotham. A construction crane falls off a skyscraper and is falling straight towards a traffic cop, about to crush him into strawberry jam. An elderly, meek-looking woman notices this and yells at him trying to get his attention, but when it doesn't work she proceeds to jump into the middle of the road without a thought of incoming traffic and pulls the idiot out of the way and to safety. Badass Bystander? Certainly. | |

Farscape: Joolushko "Jool" Tunai Fenta Hovalis spends a good portion of her introductory appearance doing just this. And it continued throughout the third series. Interestingly enough, Jool's screams are so high-pitched, they can melt metal, resulting in a hilarious moment when Aeryn decides to forgo finding power for a welding torch and simply breaks Jool's thumb. In "Scratch N Sniff", Crichton and D'Argo wake up after a night's partying to find they've been robbed and their fellow crewmembers are missing. They start Perp Sweating a female criminal to find out what happened but stop in terror when she threatens to scream. |

Amanda Kirby from Jurassic Park III movie does this a lot, to the point that it seems like she spends the majority of her screen time on the island either doing that or making some sort of terrible decision that puts her in Too Dumb to Live territory. Predictably, most people who have seen it feel that it gets old pretty fast. Lex gets a few good moments of her own in the first film, both during the T. rex attack, and later in the climax as the raptors close in on them in the visitor's center. Much more tolerable as it's neither as overused as the above example, and Lex is also a teenager. LEGO Jurassic World parodies this by making her scream her power, letting her break glass with her screams. |

Ripley has found her Tracking Device lying on the floor and breaks down in tears, thinking she's dead. Suddenly she hears Newt scream and thus knows exactly which direction to go. | |

The Sword in the Stone has quite a few... The elderly female squirrel, despite not being anthropomorphic, screams like a human woman among seeing Merlin, who had been in the form of a male squirrel, change back into his human form. Shortly after the squirrel scene, the scullery maid screams in a similar fashion when seeing everything in the kitchen alive and cleaning themselves due to Merlin's magic. Madame Mim, when in the form of an elephant and is frightened by Merlin turning into a mouse. |

Monsters vs. Aliens: Spoofed when General W. R. Mongernote "warmonger" is showing the President of the United States footage of all the monsters he's got locked up. Every time he shows one, Ms. Ronson the coffee lady keeps screaming in sheer terror and drops her tray. Finally, Monger has had enough and angrily orders her thrown out of the room. He then shows his next clip, that of "Ginormica", a 49 foot, 11 1/2 inch woman. Whereupon there's an identical high-pitched scream... from the President! Susan herself briefly lapses into this upon first bumping into Insectosaurus. Not that one could blame her, considering that it is a grub seven times as tall as she was. |

The opening credits sequence features Little Red Riding Hood screams when she sees Shrek and Fiona in ogre form, she drops her basket and runs away. Also, Fiona screams when she sees herself through the mirror discovering she's becoming a human again in the morning after Donkey drinks the Happily Ever After potion which turns the fairy tale creatures into humans. |

Case Closed: It happens almost every single time when one of the corpses' first discoverers happens to be female. Ran, Sonoko, Kazuha and Ayumi are frequently subjugated by this trope, even though they should be used to murder cases at this point. And since most of Heiji's cases happen to be "monster mystery" cases nowadays, Kazuha and Ran always scream whenever they see something remotely scary because both of them are afraid of ghosts. | |

In the 1956 film she witnesses a dog almost being run over by a truck, but in 1978 this was less plausible, so it's because she bumps into a failed assimilation. | |

Stranger Things sometimes does this, with general justification due to the nature of the threat and the youth of most of the protagonists. Eleven is this just as much as she is a Screaming Warrior. This provides a compilation of screams from the first three seasons to give plenty of examples. Max and Nancy also have good examples during Season 4, namely their encounters with Vecna. |

Alien: Lambert, most notably in her final scene when she's paralyzed with fear as the alien advances on her. Ripley screams at the end of the movie, before blowing the alien out the airlock. |

Warhammer 40,000: Subverted by the Eldar's Howling Banshees, who certainly scream when faced with combat but for different reasons: an Amazon Brigade (most of the time) whose screaming is amplified and distorted through their helmets to paralyze their enemies, which they then cut apart with monomolecular-edged swords. | |

El Goonish Shive has a side character who exists only to fill this role. She first screams during the goo attack, then later makes a reappearance when the "evil monkey" shows up. Her role is lampshaded in the commentary of the second strip. Her line during the first incident: To her credit, though, she does compose herself pretty quickly in the latter incident, given that she phones for help only a panel later (albeit not in the most convincing terms). Later Melissa falls to it when confronted with a dragon that just took down the local superheroine. Subverted in that screaming was part of her plan — it alerted her battle mage boyfriend to the situation. |

Vicki Vale in the 1989 Batman movie, who would scream at everything — when the clowns shooting at the City Hall, when the Joker nearly sprays her with acid, when Bruce Wayne gets shot by the Joker, when her friend Knox jumped to the windshield of her car and when the Joker pulled the trigger on his "Bang!" Flag Gun (which is even more absurd in context, since the Joker was pretending to shoot himself). In the City Hall scene, Vicki wasn't screaming; she was shouting "Bruce!" at Bruce Wayne because he wasn't paying attention and nearly wandered into the clowns' line of fire. In other words, she was trying to save him, which is not something you'd expect a Screaming Woman to do. Vicki is actually pretty capable for the first half of the movie, and doesn't turn into the scaredy-cat character we all remember until the museum scene. Also, wouldn't you scream if a guy who killed everyone in the museum you were in started trying to kill you as well? | |

In the Sci Fi B-Movie It Came from Beneath the Sea, said woman was a marine biologist, utterly convinced a gigantic monster octopus was terrorizing the coast. After spending the day swimming in the ocean looking for it, said monster finally made an appearance when she was standing on shore with the men... and she promptly started screaming like a little girl. One wonders what she would have done had she found it while in the water. | |

Doctor Who has a fraught relationship with this trope due to being heavily associated with it throughtout its original run from 1963-89. While not doing it as often as some make out, "she's not just a screaming girlie" has to be emphasized whenever any new companion is created, especially in the new series. The first regular to leave the series, Doctor's granddaughter Susan, did so because the actress portraying her (Carole Ann Ford) felt Susan had no depth beyond the screaming girl slash damsel in distress. (Curiously, in her very last serial "The Dalek Invasion of Earth", she nearly drops a literal bridge on herself.) The Second Doctor companion Victoria Waterfield is an exaggeration bordering on subversion — she is actually quite brave and adventurous but has a truly eardrum-shattering scream considered painful even in-universe. In "Tomb of the Cybermen", Victoria even stuns someone pointing a gun at her and a friend by shrieking so loud he can't think. In "The Ice Warriors", her scream causes an avalanche that takes out her captor. In "Fury from the Deep", her scream is the weapon that defeats the Big Bad. Her actress Deborah Watling was nicknamed "Leatherlungs" by the rest of the cast. Leela's Moment of Awesome might just be when she slaps one of these in "The Horror of Fang Rock". Louise Jameson, who played Leela, was often scripted as screaming but refused to do so in almost all cases as she felt it was out-of-character. Leela only screams once in her whole tenure — a scream of pain when a giant rat starts biting her leg off in "The Talons of Weng-Chiang". Mel is famous for this trope. Reputedly her actress Bonnie Langford was told to pitch her screams to match the start of the theme music, so there wouldn't be any dissonance at cliffhangers. The fan webcomic The 10 Doctors has fun with this, with an author's note commenting that "Mel, as we all feared, screams". A double example from "Delta and the Bannermen": gratingly, Mel ends an episode screaming at the hatching of a friendly alien's egg. Later, the growing child's screams are used as a weapon against the real villains. Ace competes with Leela for the title "Classic Series Companion Who Screams the Least"; the closest she came was in "Survival". She was being menaced by some thugs, but she had been warned by the Doctor that she couldn't fight lest she permanently lose control of herself; thus she had to yell for someone to help her. (And, as with Louise Jameson, there were some scripted screams that Sophie Aldred flatly refused to do.) An inversion in Series 2 of the new show: it's Rose's boyfriend who Screams Like a Little Girl, and is called upon by the Doctor. Donna in "The Runaway Bride". A lot. Though almost all those screams are mostly rage. After all, she's "Donna Noble, screaming at the world because you think no-one's listening." In Season 6, while going into danger alone, River Song tells the Doctor he shouldn't worry because she's "quite a screamer." Considering how flirtatious she is, and the fact that she's a genuine Action Girl, we think she's talking about a different kind of scream. In "Thin Ice", the Twelfth Doctor has a "No. Just… No" Reaction when Bill threatens to do this (because they're tied to a bomb) no doubt remembering some of the above-mentioned companions. It does no good anyway as the noise outside is so loud no-one hears her. In "Resolution" a policewoman screams on seeing alien tentacles sprout from the woman who just killed her partner. Match Cut to the siren screaming on her squad car as the Meat Puppet drives off in it, leaving the policewoman's stripped corpse behind. |

Lex gets a few good moments of her own in the first film, both during the T. rex attack, and later in the climax as the raptors close in on them in the visitor's center. Much more tolerable as it's neither as overused as the above example, and Lex is also a teenager. LEGO Jurassic World parodies this by making her scream her power, letting her break glass with her screams. | |

Lydia Martin of Teen Wolf. The show makes a point of emphasizing her piercing scream whenever she lets it rip, something that usually happens in proximity of events involving the dead or the soon-to-be-deceased. This culminates in the third season's revelation that she is in fact a banshee and her screams are omens of death. | |

Buffyverse: Played with in the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Hush", in which Buffy must scream in order to destroy The Gentlemen. The problem is they've cast a spell to stop anyone in Sunnydale from speaking. Cordelia, though less so after she moves to the spin-off Angel and toughens up. Played for Laughs in "Theres No Place Like Plrtz Glrb". Cordelia screams when Lorne's decapitated head starts talking to her. Lorne patiently tells Cordy to get it out of her system, but when the scream goes on and on without stopping, he tells her to shut up because he no longer has the hands to cover his ears. In "Helpless", Buffy finds herself Brought Down to Normal when her Slayer powers are removed, and her initial response to being attacked by a vampire is to run for her life while screaming her head off. Needless to say no-one stops to help in Sunnydale, and she eventually has to pull herself together and get Final Girl on the vamp. |

The Famous Five: A little girl example. In Five Run Away Together, the Five are on Kirrin Island at night. Julian and George suddenly hear a high-pitched scream, and believe it to be Anne; but then discover that Anne is sleeping peacefully. When they discuss it, they emphasise that it was a "proper little girl's scream - not a yell, like a boy gives". They then work out that the screamer is a little girl who has been kidnapped. | |

Sissi Delmas, from Code Lyoko, frequently lets out a frightened scream when confronted with XANA's latest attack. Parodied in episode "End of Take", where the only line of dialogue Sissi gets in James Finson's horror movie is "AAAAAH!" | |

Babylon 5: Sheridan's wife (played by Melissa Gilbert) screams when the White Star comes plowing through the dome of the city on Z'ha'dum... carrying two 500 MT nukes. Perhaps justified in her case as in that situation, there wasn't really anything she could do but scream. The novelization of this moment (in the Technomage trilogy) states that this was actually her battle scream; she had previously been the core of a Shadow vessel, which emits a psychic scream in battle. | |

Willie Scott more-or-less does this for the entirety of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Kate Capshaw even had to be taught how to scream. | |
