It is the cultural phenomenon that combines fashion, media, and toy design with 171 voice actors voicing 216 characters in 7 shows, 9 movies, 2 games, and its own YouTube channel full of original series episodes, songs, and a fashionable line of designer dolls sold online and in stores! Monster High continues to increase its popularity. Feel free to sing along to "Fright Song," the original Monster High theme song! www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGawAhRjtoA

Chorus:

Monster, Monster High

Monster High, Monster, Monster High

Come on, don't be shy
Monster High, the party never dies…

Outro:

We've got spirits, yes we do

We've got spirits, how 'bout you?

We've got spirits, yes we do

We've got spirits, how 'bout you?
