VIDEO: CANDY SPOOKY THEATER LIVE HALLOWEEN CONCERT, TRICK OR TREAT, TOKYO JAPAN. VISUAL KEI HORROR BAND.

This is Halloween, This is Halloween! I spent October 31st at the Candy Spooky Theater and SaTaN concert (at Meguro Rockmaykan in Tokyo). Wish you were there? Never fear: we filmed a video of the Trick-or-Treat-tastic performance.
Introducing “our latest victim,” Sebastiano Serafini! ( セバスティアーノ セラフィニー ) He’s never been to a Visual Kei concert OR made a video with us before, so Yukiro and I gave him the full bloody treatment. (You’ll be seeing more of Sebastiano on this blog; stay tuned…)

Jack Spooky kindly put us very serious reporters on the guest list. Candy Spooky Theater is known for its Visual Horror look and theatrics, and killed it on these fronts. But the music was also surprisingly strong: the band went from a ballad to jazz to disco electro, nailing each genre and making it their own. Oh, the energy! Jack flailed around the stage in a skeleton dance; bassist Peggy Giggles strummed so hard that blood streamed down his hand.
The highlight was when SaTaN joined their comrades on stage to sing “This Is Halloween” from Tim Burton’s Nightmare Before Christmas. Watch the magic in the above video and here.

Almost all of the concertgoers were female, as always. Quite a few dressed extravagantly for the special Halloween show.

Next, I’ll post a video and review from SaTaN’s final show with the four original members. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel so you won’t miss out!

What do you think of the Candy Spooky Theater footage? Did you laugh at the “I am Sebastian” moment in the video?
PS: congrats to Spooky Sally and Shira, winners of the Iron Fist zombie shoes contest!
