The waterphone is a musical instrument that produces eerie-like sounds, usually heard in horror movies.

Richard Waters is the inventor of the waterphone; many of its reviewers compare the unique instrument to humpback whales and sounds of outer space. The way it works is that the instrument utilize water in the interior of the center (resonator) to bend sounds and tones, resulting in hauntingly beautiful echoes of water.

A similar instrument to the waterphone is that of the “Lark in the Morning” Ocean Harp.

And now you all know where that sound comes from. I may have just put a few sound designers out of work.......

It's the classic "shit got real" sound you here in lots of movies, very popular in thrillers. I think that "Labrynth" plays this sound almost every time david bowie comes on screen. 

creepy....
