Trope Sounds

Censor Beeps, Crickets and Dun Dun Dun

Familiar gag sounds: Dun Dun Dun stings, censor beeps, vinyl stop spin-downs, crickets and a rooster wake-up call. They comment on a scene rather than belong to it. For mock suspense with more range, see tense and surprising cues in funny sound effects.
