"Living Dead Girl" came off Hellbilly Deluxe, Rob Zombie's solo debut, and went out as its second single in 1999. He wrote it with Scott Humphrey, who co-produced and mixed it, and the pair built it like a grindhouse dance track: industrial-metal crunch, a stomping beat made for haunted houses, and Zombie growling over the top like a carnival barker.

The horror business came calling fast. The original mix turned up in Bride of Chucky and in Gus Van Sant's 1998 remake of Psycho, landing on that film's album, and the "Naked Exorcism Remix" found a home on The Crow: Salvation soundtrack. The CD single's sleeve featured his wife, Sheri Moon.
