Happy Halloween, Eurovision fans! It is the day when the witches are crowned, vampires become alive, monsters scream Hard Rock Hallelujah and the Devil drops lashes on the floor. To celebrate, we are diving into the creepiest, spookiest Eurovision songs that bring the Halloween vibes in full force. Get ready cause it’s going to be a scary ride! 🎃🕸️👻
🩸El Diablo- Elena Tsagkrinou (Cyprus 2021)
A pop banger that meets the dark side! El Diablo gives spooky vibes when Elena sings as a lullaby: ‘Mama, mamacita tell me what to do…’, as if she has been taken over by a devilish spell. Also the live performance with flames and devil red gives fiery and scary vibes!
🕸️Doomsday Blue- Bambie Thug (Ireland 2024)
This is the Halloween anthem for anyone looking to be haunted. From Bambie’s chilling makeup to the intense staging, Doomsday Blue is more than just a song—it’s an experience that’ll have you clinging to your seat. Prepare to be stunned into silence and maybe even send a quick prayer afterward. This is definitely a contender for the spookiest Eurovision entry ever!
🧟Hard Rock Hallelujah- Lordi (Finland 2006)
With costumes straight out of a horror film, Lordi were the original masters of Halloween theatrics on the Eurovision stage. Back in the day, some commentators even warned parents to turn off the TV if kids were watching! But guess what? Audiences loved it, and Lordi rocketed to victory. Hard Rock Hallelujah still gives us chills and thrills, and we’re here for it.
🧛Vampires Are Alive- DJ BoBo (Switzerland 2007)
If you remember this song, you are a true Eurofan! Vampires Are Alive is peak spooky nostalgia, calling back to the Twilight era with a side of dance-pop cheese. Despite the controversy (some worried it would turn Swiss kids to the dark side!), DJ BoBo made it to Eurovision with a catchy vampire anthem that’s perfect for Halloween playlists.
👻Monsters- Saara Aalto (Finland, 2018)
‘So tonight I’m making friends with all the creatures that are hiding there under my bed’. Saara’s Monsters is a campy, feel-good anthem for embracing your inner (and outer) monsters, turning spooky vibes into a celebration of the weird and wonderful. And let’s be honest—those lyrics might just have you checking under your bed, just in case.
