Dark

A low drone filling the dark, slow footsteps on old boards, wind moaning through a crack and a light bulb fizzing out. Describe the darkness your scene needs and Morphic generates it clean.

  • A low drone, slow steps, a draught, drips or a dying bulb, the dark sound you ask for
  • Made for the basement in your horror game the moment the last light bulb gives out
  • Clean, isolated dark sounds ready to sit low under a night shot in your edit

Dark sounds for games, animation, and video edits

Low dark drone

A deep heavy drone with a slow grinding edge, the base layer that makes any dark scene feel wrong before anything happens.

Steps in the dark

Three slow footsteps on creaking boards with long pauses, for someone moving through a house they cannot see.

Howling draught

Cold wind moaning through a narrow gap, rising and falling, for an empty house, an attic or a ruined tower at night.

Echoing drips

Hollow plinks falling into deep water at uneven gaps, for a cellar, a tunnel or a flooded crypt in a game.

Bulb dying out

A bulb buzzing and flickering, then a sharp pop into silence, the moment the light fails and the dark takes over.

Growl in the dark

A large animal growling low in its chest, rising and fading, for a creature you hear long before you see it.

Ways to use a dark sound effect

Kill the lights on the scare

A bulb popping and dying on the cut drops a scene into darkness with a jolt, in horror films, survival games and animated shorts.

Editar prompt
Kill the lights on the scare

Fill a pitch black room without music

A low drone under a black frame keeps the audience uneasy while nothing is shown, in horror films, games and audio drama alike.

Editar prompt
Fill a pitch black room without music

Open in a flooded cellar under the house

Echoing drips into deep water set a cellar, a tunnel or a crypt in one sound, for horror games, animated stories and podcasts.

Editar prompt
Open in a flooded cellar under the house

Suggest something moving just out of sight

A low growl from the edge of the frame tells the viewer they are not alone, without showing what it is, in films, games and radio plays.

Perguntas frequentes

What is a dark sound effect?
Dark sounds are the sounds of being in the dark: a low drone, slow footsteps on boards, wind moaning through a gap, drips echoing in deep water, a bulb dying and a growl from something unseen. They build unease without showing anything.
Where can I get dark sounds for a video?
Describe what lurks in the darkness and Morphic generates it to fit your shot. It saves a search through horror packs, and every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it, so you can copy one and adjust.
How do I make a custom dark sound effect?
Choose the source and how low and slow it should be, then generate it. A prompt like "water drops falling into deep still water, loud deep hollow plinks at uneven gaps" works, and you can widen the gaps for more tension.
What is the difference between dark, eerie and horror ambience sounds?
Eerie sounds are strange and unplaceable, a ringing glass or a bowed cymbal. Horror ambience is a full bed for a location. Dark sounds sit between, single sources that say the lights are out and something may be near.
Can I use these dark sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because each sound is generated for you, you also avoid the clip turning up in someone else's video.
Why does my dark sound not sit right in the edit?
Dark sounds are often too loud and too busy. Keep one source at a time, sit it low under the picture, and let small sounds like a drip or a step land in real silence so the audience leans in.
