Okay, But Why are They Singing?

By Amanda Nevada Demel

I like horror. I like theatre. I like musicals. Surprising, isn’t it? Here’s a category of horror texts that have been adapted into stage musicals.
Horror Books that Were Adapted into Musicals:

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson
Carrie by Stephen King*
The Phantom of the Opera by Gaston Leroux
The War of the Worlds by H.G. Wells
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street by Christopher Godfrey Bond
Woman in White by Wilkie Collins

Honorable Mention goes to American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis!

My personal extra - Evil Dead - The Musical
