We generalize the Dray and 't Hooft procedure to generate gravitational shock waves superimposed on curved background solutions of the vacuum Einstein equations in order to include sources and a non-zero cosmological constant for the backgrounds, and a charge for the shock waves (all that in D dimensions). We apply this generalization to the study of the gravitational shock wave of ultrarelativistic particles with kinetic and electromagnetic momenta p and pe in static spherically symmetric spacetimes and its effect on shifting the event horizon (the terms with p and pe give rise to different shifts). Examples of these shock waves on the Reissner-Nordstrom and the Schwarzschild-de Sitter (and Schwarzschild-anti de Sitter) spacetimes are considered.
