Horror Show is an album by the American heavy metal band Iced Earth, released June 26, 2001. It is a theme album based on classic monsters and horror-movie icons, including Dracula, Frankenstein, and the ghost from Phantom of the Opera. It was the first Iced Earth album to feature drummer Richard Christy, and the only album to feature Steve DiGiorgio on bass, though he didn't tour with the band. Horror Show is usually considered Iced Earth's only straightforward power metal release, as little of the thrash metal influence from the band's earlier works is present.
There was a special limited-edition 2CD set. The second CD featured the instrumental track "Transylvania" (an Iron Maiden cover) along with an interview with bandleader/rhythm guitarist Jon Schaffer. There is also a single-disc version with "Transylvania", but without the interview.
Jon Schaffer - Rhythm, Lead, Acoustic Guitars, Vocals, Mandolin, Keys
Matt Barlow - Lead Vocals
Larry Tarnowski - Guitar solos in all songs except "Ghost of Freedom"
Richard Christy - Drums
Steve DiGiorgio - Bass (Credited as 'Guest Musician')
Yunhui Percifield - Lead Vocal in "The Phantom Opera Ghost" as "Christine", Backing Vocals
Richie Wilkison - Backing Vocals
Rafaela Farias - Backing Vocals
Sam King - Backing Vocals
Jim Morris - Backing Vocals, Keys, Guitar Solo in "Ghost of Freedom"
Howard Helm - Keys (Pipe Organ) on "The Phantom Opera Ghost"

when they introduced it at Wacken Open Air Festival this year (the modern day equivalent of Monsters Of Rock) they said something along the lines of 'you'll know this song, even if you're busy slashing up prostitutes in dark alleyways', hence, Jack the Ripper

Why do you even listen to Metal if you don't know what the hell the song is talking about? :|
