7. “Haunted”
Taking full advantage of being part of the visual album, “Haunted” has a number of disturbing scenes throughout the video. With Beyoncé pulling up to an opulent mansion, the video seems to infer that the venue is haunted by ghosts. Beyoncé has donned a ’20s style hairdo, deep and glamorous makeup, and she even smokes a cigarette in the opener. While the other guests of the mansion are a bit over-the-top, the scenes involving Beyoncé wearing lingerie and a thong definitely redeem its sex appeal. Dancing on top of a bed with stockings and no bottoms, and later sprawled out wearing lingerie and a matching black crown, this is a video that speaks to a darker magnetism that is extremely sexy.
