Jump scare
A jump scare is a technique often used in horror films and video games, intended to scare the viewer by surprising them, usually by a sudden transition to an unexpected event or image that co-occurs with a loud, frightening sound.〔 The jump scare has been described as "one of the most basic building blocks of horror movies". Successful jump scares rely on a previous scene which makes the viewer believe that nothing scary is about to happen, often lowering the soundtrack to near silent or using scary music.
Some critics have described jump scares as a lazy way to frighten viewers, and believe that the horror genre has undergone a decline in recent years following an over-reliance on the trope.
==In film==
In the 1979 film ''When a Stranger Calls'', an unconventional jump scare was used. The revelation that the antagonist is within the house itself suddenly scares the viewer via the realisation that the protagonist is not as safe as was previously believed.
The 2009 film ''Drag Me to Hell'', which coined the term in its production, contained jump scares throughout,〔 with director Sam Raimi saying he wanted to create "A horror film with... big shocks that’ll hopefully make audiences jump."
