Dragula (song)

"Dragula" is a debut solo single co-written and recorded by American rock musician Rob Zombie.

It was released in August 1998 as the lead single from his solo debut Hellbilly Deluxe.

The original single included a big beat remix of the song by Charlie Clouser, entitled the "Hot Rod Herman" remix (in reference to the Munsters episode), which is contained on American Made Music to Strip By (under the name Si Non Oscillas, Noli Tintinnare Mix).

"[5] The music video shows Rob Zombie driving the Munster Koach (not the actual Dragula racing car) with various shots of the band members and different scenes from classic horror films, e.g. Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920) at the beginning of the video and the killer robot from chapter film series The Phantom Creeps (1939) along with home video footage of 1950s-1960s families being entertained by a clown with clips of nuclear testing mushroom clouds sardonically overlapping of when the clown and a girl are laughing, with the multi color backdrops referencing Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory (1971), also with footage of 1920s-1930s children being entertained and shocked.

The song was covered by Mitchell Sigman for The Electro-Industrial Tribute to Rob Zombie in 2002.
