A Chill Down Your Spine: A Collection of Scary-but-Irresistible Vocaloid Songs (61–70)
I want to see something scary.Shanon
Since beginning activity as a Vocaloid producer in 2017, Shannon—a multi-creator who also handles their own illustrations and videos—has crafted this track.
Its ominous lyrics, set to a sprightly, childlike melody reminiscent of a nursery rhyme, stir a sense of fear.
The uniquely inorganic timbre of VOCALOID vocals meshes uncannily well with the guileless melody, further shaping the song’s distinctive world.
It’s scary yet irresistibly replayable—a truly addictive number.
open ittsumigusa
Released in November 2024, this work showcases Tsumigusa’s signature, madness-infused worldview.
The fear of being coaxed to “open the door,” the presence that tries to forcibly pry open a sealed heart… it sends chills down your spine.
The dynamically unfolding sound arrangement also matches the track’s atmosphere perfectly.
Once you’re hooked, there’s no escape—this is Tsumigusa’s world in full force.
Be sure to experience the horror with your own ears!
Make candyzensen
I can’t take my eyes off the eerie undertone lurking beneath the jaunty swing beat.
It’s a track by Vocaloid producer zensen, included on the compilation album “Candy Butler” released in April 2025, with the music video dropping in August.
Sung over sprightly brass, the lyrics are the company anthem of a factory that keeps producing a confection called “Happiness.” The poppy sound draws you into a horror-tinged world hidden beneath the surface.
It’s a Vocaloid song that becomes addictive after just one listen.
Puppet Playkisara
A creator who’s active not only as a Vocaloid producer but also as an illustrator, Kisara freely explores a wide range of online pop culture—and this track is one of their works.
From the very start, the timbre and melody stoke anxiety and fear, making it an outstanding number.
While the composition is catchy—with a somewhat classical-sounding melody and a fast-paced, driving chorus—it also weaves in unsettling elements, like deranged lyrics and laughter in the instrumental break.
You might say it’s a scary yet addictive song, full of clever twists hidden within its pop sheen.
casting mistakeYurii Kanon × Wolpis Carter
It’s already gone beyond the idea of “no human is singing.” Rather, precisely because no human is singing, it creates a world that can be performed.
A small mistake in life’s choices can ripple out into something huge.
This song sings about that very thing in a real, tangible way.
I recommend listening to it when you’re facing an important decision.
