K-pop music has become a vibrant addition to Halloween parties worldwide, bringing its unique blend of catchy beats, bold visuals, and dynamic performances to the spooky season. Many K-pop artists embrace dark, eerie aesthetics in their music videos, making their songs perfect for Halloween vibes.
Tracks like Red Velvet's Peek-A-Boo, Sunmi's Full Moon, and SHINee's Married to the Music create an atmosphere that balances playfulness with haunting undertones, ideal for party playlists.
However, Voodoo Doll, a track by VIXX, is one of the gory tracks that suits Halloween parties. On the other hand, Like OHH-AHH is a fun, zombie-based number that can cheer up the atmosphere.

The K-pop tracks to play in this Halloween Holiday season
These tracks are
- Bite Me
- The Black Cat Nero
- Boca
- Accendio
- Voodoo Doll
- Like OOH-AHH
1) Bite Me
Bite Me can be a good pick to add a spooky twist to the Halloween party. Produced by Cirkut, the producer of Sam Smith's Unholy, Bite Me is one of the popular tracks of ENHYPEN, released in 2023.
Through the lyrics, the track narrates an engaging storytelling of a boy and a girl who are bound by fate. However, the music video, choreographed by Ni-ki, adds a spooky feel with its dark-themed performance.
The video begins with visuals of the falling coffin and solar eclipse, which are generally connected to ghostly themes. Candles in a dark room, a red moon, and an abandoned house further enhance the eerie atmosphere, aligning with the Halloween theme.
2) The Black Cat Nero
The Black Cat Nero is another suitable choice for a Halloween party as the music video of the track delivers spooky feelings. Originally, the song was created by Turbo in 1995. Later, ATEEZ presented the number in 2020 with an eerie dance theme.
The lyrics of the track express the sheer love feelings of the narrator for a black cat, named Nero. Despite being the mischievous cat, the narrator loves the creature and wants to marry it, adding to the lovable and sarcastic declaration. He loves his feline friend to carry in his arms.
What makes the track a Halloween-themed track is the performance of ATEEZ. With the spooky-themed makeup, the members of the group stare at a black cat, setting the theme of the track. Soon, the backdrop transforms into a graveyard and adds the eerie vibe further.

3) Boca
Boca is another track that suits the Halloween Holiday season. The track is from Dreamcatcher's mini album Dystopia: Lose Myself which was released in 2020. While the original music video is quite soothing, the zombie version can be seen as a spooky performance.
The seven-girl group debuted under Happyface Entertainment in 2017 and established themselves as a K-pop sensation with their unique storytelling. Boca is no exception.
The original video of the track embarks on contradictory emotions like hatred and love. Using symbolism, the video seamlessly portrays the serene positive and the negative world.
However, the zombie version is quite different from the original one. It begins with the Dreamcatcher members' performances in traditional Korean attire and soon they become zombies after being bitten by infected humans. This track creates a spooky atmosphere which is suitable for Halloween.
4) Accendio
Released in May 2024, Accendio is the second track from their mini album IVE SWITCH, and for the Halloween playlist, this track stands out due to its mysterious inputs.
While the track is filled with oomphs, the music video brings a hooking plot and the inclusion of the magic wand, abrupt disappearance, and the fight between good and bad make the track more interesting.
Gaeul plays the main character in this storytelling music video where she disappears and gets a magic wand. The team is given a challenge and they begin a dwell with an evil version of the IVE group.
Without spooky visuals, Accendio is a K-pop track that embarks on the supernatural theme and can be played on Halloween.
5) Voodoo Doll
In November 2013, the VIXX released its first studio album VOODOO and Voodoo Doll is one of the tracks from the album. From the track's title to its music video, Voodoo Doll is a suitable choice for the Halloween holiday season.
The lyrics depict the desire of a lover who wants to extract all the pain of his loved ones while trying to make a comfortable place for her. The spooky essence is seen in the music video where a voodoo doll's story is depicted.
The video begins with a girl who cuts someone's skin and blood comes out. The next visual shits to the dance performance of VIXX and they are performing with a wand having a skull-based handle.
When the narrative unfolds further, it shows that the girl is controlling the members with the voodoo doll and locks them in a nasty room. However, the visuals of blood, organs, and skin make the video quite nasty and make the track spooky and eerie.
6) Like OOH-AHH
In 2015, TWICE released its debut music album The Story Begins and Like OOH AHH is one of them. The track can be played as a Halloween performance due to its zombie theme.
The lyrics of the track depict the desire of a girl to get a lover whom she can love and be comfortable with. After garnering 500 million streams on YouTube, the track is one of the popular singles of the band.
Unlike the spooky and dark-themed Halloween tracks, Like OOH AHH embarks on cheerful storytelling. The music video is based on a zombie apocalypse where people have been infected and roaming around the city.
Halloween-themed K-pop performances, where artists often appear in dramatic costumes and play with supernatural themes, add another layer of excitement for fans. With its global reach, K-pop brings people together across cultures, adding a refreshing and stylish twist to Halloween festivities.
