Here's a surprise with a song you most likely never heard of before! This is the first song of Sound Horizon's prelude album to another of their works, Märchen. In case you haven't recognized these people already, not only is Hatsune Miku featured as the singing voice of Elise, but these are the same people that created a good amount of Attack on Titan songs, Linked Horizon! They've always been such a big inspiration to me and I've admired their works for ages. So in honor of the Halloween spirit, and to bring attention to one of Sound Horizon's best songs, I present to you the tale of how a man fell into a well, meeting with a strange doll that joins his quest to bring revenge within different German fairytales. Eat your heart out, Kingdom Hearts!
Anyway, Happy Halloween!
