[2026] Eerie BGM That Stokes Fear | Compilation

One of the most indispensable elements for creating fear is the background music (BGM).

Whether it’s environmental sounds or the distorted tones of ominous strings, that kind of BGM really stirs up fear, doesn’t it?

You probably won’t find many situations in daily life where you want to use such BGM, but if you’re putting on a haunted house for a school festival, it would come in very handy.

This time, for those of you in that situation, we’ve selected some eerie BGMs that heighten fear.

From ambient soundscapes to strings, we’ve picked tracks from a variety of genres, so be sure to check them out.

A track whose eerie vibe—crafted by the vocal melody and heavy instrumentation—fits the Halloween image perfectly.

Once you watch the music video, you can’t help but perceive it entirely as a Halloween song.

The exhilarating chorus and the reggae rhythm make it a truly satisfying listen.

If you’ve played Pokémon on the Game Boy, you’ve probably heard this.

It’s the BGM from Lavender Town, a town where many Pokémon graves are built.

The sparse tones and dissonance make it a track that evokes fear.

It might be interesting to listen to on Halloween night.

Bauhaus is a British band said to be pioneers of gothic rock.

Their gothic vibe is perfect for Halloween.

Among Bauhaus’s songs, I chose this one, where the sobbing guitar sound feels raw and painful, with a sense of dread.

Here’s a Halloween track from the rapidly rising, buzzworthy idol group BiSH.

The music video’s slightly psycho-horror vibe is perfect for the season.

The punk rock melody and fast-paced vocals will get you hyped.

Be sure to copy the choreography during the chorus!

It was included on their third full-length album, SEEDS OF HOPE, released in 2011, and despite being an indie release, it generated quite a buzz.

While it’s not based on a Halloween concept, it’s an intense, rough track that conveys a bit of a scary vibe.
