A spine-chilling collection of Vocaloid songs that are scary but irresistible to listen to (51–60)
HydrangeaUmetora
The heavy sound is one thing, but the waltz-like 3/4 rhythm further heightens the sense of fear.
The backing track is so realistic it’s hard to believe it’s programmed, and the vocals sound so human you’d never think it’s a Vocaloid.
This song is part of a single story.
By listening to the entire series in order, you can immerse yourself even deeper in the song’s world.
I came to see you.tsumigusa
It’s a dark track steeped in an unsettling atmosphere.
Released by Tsumikusa in January 2025, this work paints lyrics filled with maddening love and a thirst for revenge against betrayal.
Hatsune Miku’s icy vocals pair exquisitely with the downbeat soundscape, leaving a powerful impression on listeners.
If you like dark songs or “yami” tracks, it’s a must-check.
It might also be good to listen to when you want to face the darkness within.
Paranormal Experiencenakiso
A dark, thrilling Vocaloid track that bottles up that raw “something’s off” feeling into music.
It’s a song by Nakiso, released in October 2025.
Instinct warns of danger, yet curiosity makes you peek anyway.
Those conflicting emotions are scattered throughout the lyrics.
There’s plenty to enjoy, from the tight beat to the writhing basslines.
The tension created by the push and pull of the sounds captures the chills of encountering the supernatural.
Try listening with earphones late at night—you’ll feel a shiver down your spine!
Tickin’ TerrorTeddy Dare
It’s an addictive horror-pop tune.
The song is by Teddy Dear, a Vocaloid producer known for a mysterious style, and it was released in September 2025.
The lively electroswing sound and Kasane Teto SV’s slightly bewitching vocals are a perfect match.
This work feels as if a guide through nightmares is whispering, “You’re next.” The depiction of fear—tinged with both thrills and comedy—pulls you in as you listen.
It leaves you with the same satisfaction as if you’d just finished watching a horror film.
A Chill Down Your Spine: A Collection of Scary-but-Irresistible Vocaloid Songs (61–70)
Not yet, Ame.pepoyo
A song with an impressively apocalyptic atmosphere.
Composed by Pepoyo and released in December 2024, it symbolically portrays humanity’s powerlessness through unending rain and dim skies.
A world where poisonous rain falls—best left to the imagination.
The contrast between the catchy melody and the ominous mood really pierces the heart.
If you liked this piece, be sure to check out Pepoyo’s other works as well.
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.
to wish; to hopeAru
The piece that captivates listeners with a slightly horror-tinged worldview is “Nozomu.” It’s a work by Al, a new-generation Vocaloid producer.
In this song, you can fully enjoy her hallmark: lyrics tinged with madness.
Specifically, it portrays a deep tangle of love and hate, elevated by music that resembles a music box.
First, listen closely and try to imagine the story.
By the way, the title is pronounced “koi-negau,” and it means to fervently wish or long for something.
