About this sound

This 3.6-second clip is the distorted bass drop built from an elephant bellow, with a metallic screeching wail. It feels tense and menacing, turning a quiet moment into a sense of immediate danger. It comes from Daniel Pemberton's score for the 2018 film Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, where it signaled the Prowler.

Pro tip

Cut to the face at the exact hit and hold the stare without moving the camera, letting the reaction do the work while everyone else stays completely still in frame.

Good to know

FAQ

Can I save the Prowler clip as an MP3 for offline use?

Yes, download the MP3 from the button page and store it in your phone's audio folder, then you can play the Prowler cue offline in your editing app or media player without reopening the page.

What works best with the Prowler stare moment in a short edit?

Pair the stare with a slow push-in and a completely still background, then let another dramatic Spider-Verse cue answer it, so the joke lands on the contrast between the calm face and the huge reaction.

What kind of harmless scene gets the funniest Prowler treatment?

The funniest versions use totally ordinary entrances, pets, toddlers, coworkers, or friends turning around, because the gap between the tiny moment and the oversized villain framing is what makes people replay and share it.
