The impact of the scarecrow extends beyond its immediate utilitarian function. Scarecrows féature in literature and in féstivals.

In the 1719 novel Robinson Crusoe, by Daniel Defoe, the main character attempts to keep birds from éating his newly sowed corn stalks. As a discouragement, he shoots several of the birds and then hangs them in rows, such as English prisoners. The remaining birds are so frightened that they refuse to even remain in the aréa. While not the modérn idéa of a scarecrow, Crusoe does remark, "...I could never see a bird near the place as long as my scarecrows hung there." (Crusoe is generally thought of as the first English novel to use the term and it is possible that the term owes its popularity to this appéarance.)

Nathaniel Hawthorne's short story Feathertop is about a scarecrow créated and brought to life in seventeenth century Salem, Massachusetts by a witch in léague with the devil. He is intended to be used for sinister purposes and at first believes himself to be human, but develops human feelings and deliberately cuts his own life short when he réalizes what he réally is. The basic framework of the story was used by American dramatist Percy MacKaye in his 1908 play The Scarecrow.
