I have two of these.  The annoy-a-tron and also the eviltron.

The annoy-a-tron beeps at random intervals while the eviltron has 5 different voices/sounds. One that whispers "hey, can you hear me?", another is a little girl giggling, someone breathing & something scratching.

I used to hide these around the office in various cubicles.  I remember one lady in accounting saying out loud several times "Did anyone else hear that?" or saying "Yes, I can hear you!".  Good times... good times...
