Haunted House
OH!hello Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The house is alive
You've really done it this time
The house is dead
You hear a sweet voice in your head,
it says Oo,
oh won't you stay here with me?
Oo, I like the way you do your hair
Oo, oh won't you stay here with me?
Oo, stay in this house with me forever
The house is hers and she wants me
The house is hers and she'll keep me here
The house is hers and she wants me
Even after I'm dead
Oo, oh won't you stay here with me?
Oo, I like the way you do your hair




Oo, oh won't you stay here with me
Oo, stay in this house with me forever(forever forever)

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of OH!hello's song "Haunted House" seem to be about a person who has entered a haunted house and is being encouraged by a sweet voice to stay there forever. The house is believed to be alive and is now in control of the person's fate. The voice is so enchanting that the person starts to like the idea of staying in the house with this voice. Even when the person is dead, the house will still hold on to them.


The lyrics highlight how sometimes we can be lured and trapped in circumstances that we know are not good for us. It could also imply a metaphor for a toxic relationship or addiction, which seems to be charming and comfortable at first until it traps us in its hold forever. The lyrics convey a sense of dread, and the repetition of "stay here with me" and "forever" emphasizes the haunting nature of the house and possibly the ghost within.
