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.
