* In ''Literature/TheDarkTower'' series, Roland hypnotizes people several times by having them focus on a bullet as he walks it back and forth across the backs of his fingers. Not exactly a pendulum, but thematically similar.
* ''Literature/LumbanicoTheCubicPlanet'': The Great Guardian uses a tear-shaped piece of astrolita (a glowing blue mineral) on a string to hypnotize Vinca into revealing where her friends have gone to.
* The ''Literature/{{Sorcery}}'' gamebooks have the Nap Spell, which is used together with a brass pendulum. It's capable of putting most enemies to sleep, as long as they're sentient.
* In ''Literature/WaysideSchool Gets a Little Stranger'', Dr. Pickle uses a pickle-shaped pendulum to hypnotize his patients. Incidentally, his real name is Pickell.
* ''Literature/MollyMoon's Incredible Book of Hypnotism'': Molly Moon buys one from an antique shop, but earlier she uses her own: a spoon (while she's stirring soup) and a piece of soap on a string.
* ''Literature/{{Bunnicula}}'': Chester is implied to have been hypnotized by a clock pendulum.
* In the ''WesternAnimation/SpongebobSquarepants'' book "The Amazing Spongebobini", Spongebob tries to hypnotize Patrick into not being sick using a combination of this and HypnoticEyes. It doesn't work.

* In ''Literature/UnseenAcademicals'', when Nutt attempts hypnotherapy on ''himself'', Trev puts him in a trance by swinging his tin can back and forth on a string, saying he once saw a music hall performer do this with a pocket watch.
