For the best reading experience, play the sound from this video while reading on. The Sinister Scraping Sound is the issue of the Unholy Matrimony between Nails on a Blackboard and Audible Sharpness, with Nightmare Fuel acting as the godfather. This is a very basic Horror trope, the sound of metal scraping on metal, rock, wood, or another hard surface. It might be heard continuously or rhythmically, slowly intensifying as the source approaches. It might be a knife on a countertop, a machete against a pipe, a sword against the ground, or a Chainsaw against basically anything if you want to ramp up the fear. This usually plays hell with hidden characters who are trying to hide, as it increases their panic. If they can keep their mouth shut, they might survive... or get pulled/impaled through the wall. Of course, the noise might be something completely innocuous that leads to another, more dangerous scare. As the picture shows, it might be accompanied with sparks. Characters arriving after the scraper has left will no doubt wonder at who left the scratches —or gouges— on the wall/floor. The foreboding Bloody Handprints and body parts everywhere will be easier to piece together (unlike the bodies). Often an example of Hell Is That Noise. |

Gotham: Jonathan Crane returns to Arkham to get revenge on the warden who had psychologically tortured him and then taken a bribe to allow him to be kidnapped by a band of petty criminals who wanted his father's fear juice formula. Dressed in his Scarecrow outfit, Crane crosses the darkened room scraping a scythe across a restraint table, giving off sparks and making an ominous scraping sound. | |

In Eternal Darkness, the Roivas mansion is full of creepy sounds that probably don't mean anything, but one of them is the scraping or sharpening of knives, followed by the sounds of someone being tortured on another floor... One of the lesser effects of low sanity is hearing knocks and scrapes. One of the terrifying effects of no sanity is hearing someone sharpening a metal instrument while a woman pleads desperately, before she starts screaming in agony. |

Supernatural uses this trope a lot. In "Hook Man", loud scraping sounds and deep gouges herald the arrival of a murderous ghost. Hellhounds, the invisible dogs that drag doomed souls to Hell, are accompanied by loud baying and a Sinister Scraping Sound. |

As pictured above, Freddy Krueger from the A Nightmare on Elm Street series loves to scrape his finger blades along the nearest surface while stalking his latest victim. As well as creating sparks upon the impact of metal on metal, it echoes across the surroundings, screwing with his victims by freaking them out before they even get a chance to see him. | |

The hospital scene in The Crazies (2010) shows one of the titular crazies scraping a pitchfork along the floor as he prepares to stab people who were strapped down on gurneys. Later on, another crazy is seen scraping a carving knife across a wall in a deliberate attempt to scare Judy out of hiding. | |

Silent Hill 2: "Clank clank thunk scrape, Pyramid Head has come to rape!" Late in the game, James can take (and use) Pyramid Head's Great Knife. In parts of the Dark World Lakeview Hotel, and in the "Black Fairy" OST track, a screeching sound similar to a malfunctioning VCR is heard, which may represent the video tape James recorded of his wife's murder being replayed over and over in his mind. The Butcher and his oversized meat cleaver work the same way as Pyramid Head and his Great Knife in Silent Hill: Origins. And check out the song "Rain of Brass Petals (Three Voices Edit)" from Silent Hill 3. It was reused as the ending music for Silent Hill Revelation. Fittingly, many feel the song's lyrics refer partially or completely to Pyramid Head. And again in Silent Hill: Downpour. |

During Wraith Squadron, Grinder finds a stack of boxes, each with a mantislike insect that makes a good pet inside. One scrapes insistently - scritch, scritch, scritch - on its box, so he steals it and puts it in Face's X-Wing, with the idea that he'll notice it in a routine mission and freak out. But Face doesn't. A few nights later, Grinder hears that same scritching in his room every night. Eventually he looks up the insect and finds an entry on the pet, and on its closest relative the Crystal Deceiver, which targets specific large mammalian prey, stalks them, paralyzes them, and starts feeding. Cue Grinder sealing every entrance into his room... and still the scritching continues, and it's in his room! Under his bed! He ends up fainting. Face is getting back at him for that prank and others. | |

BioShock: Spider Splicers are known to do this when nearby, giving players an audible cue that bad news is coming their way. Thuggish splicers can do this with their weapons (mostly metals clubs, like pipes, wrenches, etc) as well, although if they're charging like that they're probably screaming at you anyway. |

Jonathan Creek: In the episode "The Clue of the Savant's Thumb", a subtle Sinister Scraping Sound can be heard drifting along an empty corridor as Jonathan and Joey explore the derelict convent, and again before someone is nearly crushed by a falling statue at the same location. We eventually learn that the sound is caused by a lurking hitman who habitually runs his thumb along the teeth of a metal comb. | |

In The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the guillotines in the Shadow Temple make a scraping sound as they rise and fall. The creepy repeating scritch-scritch-scritch-scritch-skrrrrrr... sound made by Gold Skulltulas. It's useful for finding them all to gain 100% Completion... and for keeping you awake at night. The Flying Guardians in the Silent Realms scrape their swords together as they slowly but surely float towards your position. |

Though not shown, we see the aftereffects in Hook. The scratch marks on the wallpaper, combined with a maid's hysterical report, indicate that Hook sauntered through the house, scraping his hook along the walls, until he caught up with the children he was after. | |

In the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, "Sandy, SpongeBob, and the Worm" when Mr. Krabs mentions no one could take on the worm at the meeting, at that moment, a scary but brave-looking sailor man screeches his hook against the window in a moment of dramatic buildup until he simply asks where the bathroom is, only needing everyones attention for that. | |

Doctor Who: Inverted with the scraping wheeze made by the TARDIS as it takes off (originally produced by scraping a door key against a piano string). Instead of Hell Is That Noise, the TARDIS's sound has become the Most Wonderful Sound, both in-universe and out. Played with in "Before the Flood", when the Monster of the Week is stalking a deaf woman while dragging a fire axe, but she can't hear it. However, when it gets close, she picks up the vibrations in the floor in time to escape becoming a Victim of the Week. |

Done in Get Out (2017) with a spoon scraping a teacup, of all things. Missy Armitage uses it to hypnotize and brainwash her victims, making the otherwise innocuous sound downright terrifying. | |

Hyperbole and a Half: While she and Boyfriend are watching a horror film, Allie hears a sound which resembles metal grinding against metal. Initially, she's relieved when she finds it's only a honking goose, but then she remembers how aggressive geese are. Things go downhill from there. | |

In the Homestuck fan adventure Alabaster: The Doomed Session, there is a Pyramid Head parody. No need to say, the monster is predated by the proverbial big knife sound. | |
