Katseye revives Monster High anthem with fresh take on 'Fright Song'

In the context of a collaboration between the girl group Katseye and Mattel's popular franchise Monster High, a new version of the theme song 'Fright Song' has been released on July 18, 2025. This initiative showcases the creative talents of Katseye, which includes members Sophia, Lara, Megan, Yoonchae and Manon. The group is not only contributing to the music aspect but has also produced a music video featuring each member dressed as mythical creatures from various cultures, showcasing a blend of artistry and cultural representation. Megan takes on the role of the Huli Jing, a fox spirit, while other members embody figures such as a shapeshifter, a werewolf, and a vampire, among others. They perform in typical high school settings, enhancing the nostalgic factor for fans familiar with the show. This collaboration also extends to merchandise, with the introduction of dolls that represent each Katseye member. Krista Berger, a Mattel executive, emphasized how Katseye aligns with the brand's core values, which promote creativity, self-expression, and empowerment. The upcoming collaboration celebrates the legacy of Monster High, enriching its representation to current audiences. Following the release, Katseye’s journey remains marked by their previous album titled 'Beautiful Chaos,' released in June 2025, where they introduced tracks like '...Gnarly' and 'Gabriela,' enhancing their musical influence and engagement with global fans. The collective effort signifies not only a fresh generation's interest in the brand but also a commitment to uplifting diverse representations in mainstream media, making it relevant for today’s youth, who can resonate with the themes of authenticity and acceptance.
