Details
What if Johnny Cash made folks songs for vampires?” The answer might very well describe the music of Aurelio Voltaire.Often described as a modern day renaissance man, Voltaire is an accomplished singer/ performer, author, creator of films, animation, toys and home decor.
As an internationally touring musician for nearly 30 years, he is at the forefront of the Gothic and Dark Cabaret genres and has consistantly headlined some of the biggest horror, sci-fi and comic book conventions. Known for mixing mirth with the macabre, his music is a vast collection of fun songs about frightful topics. Perhaps that is why he has become such a fan favorite around Halloween, a time of year where his sizable audience grows substantially and his dark ditties appear on everyone’s Halloween playlists. Walk through a Spirit Halloween and you’re bound to hear a few of his songs, like Brains! Or Land of the Dead from the Cartoon Network show The Grim Adventures of Billy And Mandy.
Many know him for his songs from the viral animated videos of Daria Cohen’s Vampair series (The Night, Land of the Dead, Zombie Prostitute, Stuck with You, Raised by Bats and Chupando) that have a combined 80 million views on Youtube. That IP is presently being developed into an animated series with Aurelio Voltaire as executive producer as well as voicing the main character of Duke.
Over his thirty year career, Aurelio Voltaire has released 14 full-length studio albums.
His latest release is a Summerween album of spooky surf, ska, and rockabilly songs called Summerween Surf. It features collaborations with spooky surf legends Los Straitjackets, Messer Chups, Satan’s Pilgrims, Gothic horror punks Calabrese and more!
When not touring or recording, Aurelio Voltaire can be seen in his informative and hilarious Youtube series, Gothic Homemaking. Like a young Vincent Price taking over for Martha Stewart, he demonstrates how to turn a boring home into a Gothic lair with the help of his desiccated co-host, Orville Deadenbacher and a bunch of other recurring monster characters.
The New York Times did a feature on Aurelio Voltaire and the Gothic Homemaking show calling him, “The Martha Stewart of Macabre Homemakers" and "a lifestyle guru to people who embrace spookiness in all seasons.” The popularity of the show also lead to a book deal with Quarto Books/Epic Ink producing Aurelio Voltaire’s book, Gothic Life- The Essential Guide to Macabre Style.

Aurelio Voltaire has also just completed his first horror feature film, The Demonatrix. In his directorial debut in which Voltaire also stars, a priest comes to the aid of a dominatrix when she accidentally summons an incubus demon. The film stars Hannah Fireman (V/H/S, Creepshow), Doug Bradley (Hellraiser) and Larry Fessenden (Jacob’s Wife, Brooklyn 45). The incubus demon is played by Skinny Puppy frontman, Nivek Ogre (Repo! the Genetic Opera, The Devil’s Carnival) in a demon make up effects suit made by Norman Cabrera who worked on DelToro’s Hellboy, Ghostbusters Afterlife, Star Trek Beyond and Cabinet of Curiosities. The film will had its US premier in New York City on December of 2025 and is now on tour around the world via film festivals and horror conventions.
