HOLLYWOOD, CA, UNITED STATES, September 4, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Stonedef Records continues the Halloween season with one song, one doll and infinite nightmares with the debut release of “The Nancy Doll,” a new original Halloween song from Billboard-charting artist Fawn—an internationally known singer-songwriter, recording artist, composer, musician, published author and voice-over artist. This hair-raising new tune sneaks up on you September 12, 2025, with pre-orders haunting you now.

Written, performed and recorded by Fawn, “The Nancy Doll” came alive in the creative depths of her Hollywood Hills soundlab, Terrace Studios. Produced by Cameron Lasswell, the track conjures the playful spookiness of a Disney Halloween masterpiece. "The Nancy Doll" is part of Fawn's Frightening Fall series—“Haunted Halloween Jams”—an enchanting anthology of eerie originals, unearthed chilling cuts, spectral remixes, and freshly remastered vintage spine-tinglers, all handpicked from her private chamber of the macabre.

Stonedef Records said, "Some people were creeped out by Fawn's childhood doll named 'Nancy' because her eyes opened and closed. One in particular was music producer BT (Brian Transeau), which is a very funny memory for her and a terrifying one for him!"

Fawn revealed that particular recollection, which correlated to what inspired her to write "The Nancy Doll." Fawn shared, “When I was little, I had a doll named Nancy. For some strange reason, she always scared my friends because her eyes opened and closed. After having success with my other Halloween songs, I decided to write some more, and my beloved Nancy doll came to mind." Fawn continued, "I remembered a specific memory in my teen years, working in Los Angeles on music with singer-songwriter Vincent Covello and producer BT (Brian Transeau). We were all tired after a long night of making music and Brian decided to spend the night in the adjoining guest house. Well, Vinny and I knew he was terrified of my Nancy doll, so we snuck up into the guest house and put her inside one of the kitchen cabinets, sitting up. Sure enough, around 3 am we heard a blood curdling scream and Brian came busting out the door and down the steps yelling, 'I'm not sleeping up here with that doll!'"

Fawn concluded, "I never forgot that hilarious moment and it gave me the idea for the song. I thought, what if Nancy really was a doll to be afraid of? And that is how 'The Nancy Doll' was brought to life."

Producer Cameron Lasswell Said, "Fawn had this idea to start the song with a wind up music box melody and then she sang a string line which I encorporated into the embodiment of the song. Both ideas worked well in the overall mood of the song." Cameron continued, "She wanted to end the song with the doll singing 'ring around the rosie' which gave it that extra haunting and creepy vibe."

New Zealand Producer Malcolm Smith did his own unique version of the song and said, "Fawn wrote this song about an evil doll who sounded very scary. I incorporated evil childlike laughter and children's choir atmosphere to bring a frightening 'theatre of the mind’ scenario to support this chilling story of this evil Nancy doll who comes to life and kills with no remorse." Malcolm continued, "It’s always fun working with Fawn. She has quite the imagination and comes up with these intricate ideas. She writes clever lyrics to tell her uniquely catchy Halloween stories."

Fawn will be releasing a new Halloween song every Friday through All Hallow's Eve. “The Nancy Doll” will pull you straight into the grave September 12, 2025 and again with the Malcolm Smith mix on September 26, 2025, both mixes will available on all major platforms. In addition to the chilling release of "The Nancy Doll," a spellbinding animated music video is brewing in the cauldron, crafted by the wickedly talented animation conjurer, Shawn Darling, mastermind of Red Specter Studios.
