Introduction: Although musical hallucinations do not tend to be accompanied by delusions, occasionally patients persistently accuse others of being responsible for causing the music they perceive, sometimes with severe social consequences such as frequently calling the police or moving house.

Methods: The present study is part of a cohort study on musical hallucinations carried out in the Netherlands from 2010 through 2023.
