$1.99 voice changer app. We used it for Rachel's zombie film project.

Audrey Jensen in Aftermath, proving the killer can be anyone.

The Voice Changer is a type of audio equipment that Ghostface/Lakewood Slasher uses to mask his/her voice so that others can't figure out who it is under the costume.

Description[]

Movies[]

It was first seen as a rectangular white box in Scream and Scream 2, but in Scream 3, it was a specialized, circular, metallic device with several buttons. It was not seen in Scream 4, because a cellphone app was used in place of the device. This also keeps in touch with the idea that remakes must utilize the latest in current technology. Until the cellphone app was invented, it is possible that the killers kept the machine inside their hoods, or held it over the receiver.

The device mimics a male with a deep, mysterious voice. In Scream, it was shown to be distorted and higher-pitched when a female like Sidney used it, but in Scream 2 and 4, when Mrs. Loomis and Jill use the device, it is normal.

Roman uses an improved voice changer, which can mimic several voices at once. A deleted scene showed that the voice changer operated using a mini optical disc which could have several voiceprint files uploaded to it to mimic different voices. In a deleted scene in the Assembly Cut of Scream 3, Ghostface used a recording of a phone call with Sidney to generate a voice print file which he then uploaded to the disc and put into the voice changer.

In the fifth movie, Ghostface uses a physical voice changer once again. Ghostface is depicted activating the device before he calls Sam to taunt her while he’s hunting Tara in the hospital; the voice changer seems to be attached to the inside of the costume’s hood or the inside of the mask and emits a red LED light that can be seen through the fabric. When Richie reveals himself as Ghostface, he whips out the voice changer as a reference to how Stu had exposed himself as Ghostface in the original movie. The voice changer Amber and Richie use is similar to the one used in the first two films.

TV Series[]

In the first two seasons of the television series, Scream, the Lakewood Slasher uses a type of voice changer to mask their voice when calling their victims over the phone. Audrey reveals that the voice changer is an app costing $1.99, which she and Rachel used for a film project.

In the third season, Ghostface uses the voice changer as a way to disguise himself and torment his victims. The voice changer was also used by a random prank caller who scared Becky, the girl who lived in the house where Marcus had trick-or-treated at on Halloween eight years before the events of the season. Despite its usage throughout the season, a physical voice changer prop is never seen throughout the season.
