danse macabre Synonyms for macabre: ghastly, grisly, eerie, weird, morbid, hideous, grotesque, gruesome Dance of Death, also called Danse Macabre (from the French language), is an artistic genre of late-medieval allegory on the universality ofdeath: no matter one's station in life, the Dance of Death unites all. The Danse Macabre consists of the dead or personified Death summoning representatives from all walks of life to dance along to the grave, typically with a pope,emperor, king, child, and labourer. They were produced to remind people of the fragility of their lives and how vain were the glories of earthly life.[1] wikipedia ____________________________
