Thriller is the title track from Michael Jackson's 1982 album Thriller, with spoken narration by horror actor Vincent Price. Its 1983 music video, directed by John Landis, turned the song into a Halloween staple, famous for its zombie dance sequence that is still recreated today. The track has remained a seasonal favourite for decades, returning every October in parties, parades and social videos, and its instantly recognisable groove makes it a shorthand for spooky fun rather than genuine horror.

The iconic opening of Michael Jackson's Thriller, with its eerie beat and Vincent Price narration, used for Halloween edits and spooky reveals.
This clip captures the instantly recognisable sound of Michael Jackson's Thriller, opening with a dark, pulsing bassline and eerie synthesizers that create a tense, haunted atmosphere before the beat drops into its famous dance groove. Vincent Price's chilling spoken interlude adds a theatrical horror-movie edge, making the listener expect something spooky to appear. It feels playful rather than truly frightening, instantly signalling Halloween, a monster reveal, or a dramatic transformation in a video and turning an ordinary moment into a campy, suspenseful set piece.
