Shock.swf is a screamer Flash animation created by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for its annual Mystery Hunt.

The animation begins with the following text: "Wait for it..." on a white background, which stays for about 12 seconds. After that, a fast slideshow of several unscary images such as various movie clips, including the Titanic sinking from the movie with the same name, Jack Woltz waking up to find a decapitated horse head in his bed from The Godfather, Roman Polanski holding a knife from 1974 neo-noir film Chinatown as well as Regan MacNeil, Pazuzu and other scary images appear with no scream. A message is then displayed, reading: "Boo! Did I scare you?"
