I had thought it was the Wilhelm, but it's not. I've been trying to figure this out for a little while. Note: This is the Wilhelm: http://www.the-earchives.com/wavs/s/sound073.wav

Screams have names? You learn something new everyday.

Yes it's a very famous scream but I have never been able to put a name to it. Maybe the wiki entry for Half-Life 2 will be shed some light on it.

It plays when you click on the terran academy in starcraft. I don't know if that is the first appearance though.

Goddamnit I've been trying to figure this out too. I thought it would be the Wilhelm scream but that's completely different.

Its been around longer than video games so, no, it didn't originate from a video game. Would love to know the scream as well

The oldest source I've heard is AHH! Real Monsters, but I'm pretty sure it's just part of a sound effect package that you can buy for $9,999.95 or something.

Can you please tell me where you got the file for that scream. I've been searching the net for hours for it. Morons keep confusing it with the Wilhelm, making it extremely difficult to find. I just need the file, please.

I have no idea what the name of the scream is. I've always called it "The Dark Forces scream" because the first place I heard it was in the old Star Wars game "Dark Forces" whenever you fell a long distance.

I've heard it referred to as the "Long scream" or the "Howie Long scream" after Howie Long who's character gets kicked off a train that is going over a bridge in the movie Broken Arrow. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2-E2OvSGxk
