Is there a female version of the Wilhelm Scream?
The Wilhelm Scream is a sound effect of a man screaming, and has been used in hundreds of movies and TV episodes. Is there a female equivalent of this sound effect? Specifically, the sound of a woman screaming which has been re-used in multiple films/shows; it does not necessarily need to sound like or be used in the same context that the Wilhelm Scream would be used.
