October is a terribly wonderful time for haunted houses, costume parties, carved pumpkins and candy hunts. But it’s also a time to hear spooky songs and re-watch our favorite horror movies. Fortunately, Candlelight’s Halloween concerts in Bordeaux play spooky tunes, creepy movie music and more.
Let yourself sink into the dark side as you listen to a classic rendition of Michael Jackson ‘s iconic hit “Thriller”, the theme from The Addams Family or the theme from Ghostbusters. Illuminated by thousands of candles, the Théâtre Victoire provides the perfect backdrop for this macabre spectacle.
Candlelight: Halloween classics
What constitutes a “Halloween classic”? Well, there’s certainly a shrill violin, a monster voice and spooky lyrics. Candlelight invites you to relive spooky moments from the big or small screen and listen to petrifying compositions as a string quartet performs on a candlelit stage.
Camille Saint-Saëns’ Danse Macabre, “Time Warp” from The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Charles Gounod’s Marche funèbre d’une marionnette are just some of the creepy classics you’ll hear. It’s a sweet 60-minute scare and the perfect way to celebrate Halloween with family and friends.
Do you like your hair to stand on end when you watch a film like The Exorcist? And does the main theme music of Stranger Things give you a good chill? If so, Candlelight’s tribute to Halloween classics is THE ultimate October event for you.
What’s more, with two performances taking place, at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., you can choose the time that best suits your schedule.
