Shrieks, Shouts and Screams

That classic Wilhelm Scream but with more options

What is the Wilhelm Scream?

The Wilhelm Scream has been made famous for appearing in over 400 movies when a scream was needed. It dates back to the 1951 film Distant Drums.
The sound effect was used for a character named Private Wilhelm who was shot in the leg with an arrow and let out the distinctive scream.
These are my takes on it and I'm happy for you to use it for a credit.
