I think Fleur or SK will be doing it. It won't matter that it's associated with a male singer. After all, they gave Paul "Ghost" which is associated with a female singer and Andrea gets diva ballads. I can't see Stevi being given something that iconic plus he's been harping on about doing a ballad for Halloween.
They're probably wishing they saved that for Halloween week now, what with it's tenuous link to the theme. Hey, there are even mentions of the Devil!
That said, it fits much better than some songs they've done for the Halloween show in the past. "Set Fire to the Rain", anyone? I'm still wondering, did they choose that simply because of the reference to rain?
I'm going to list previous Halloween songs.. so we have this...
2010, Aiden sang a slow version of Thriller. However, as Brian mentioned choreography, it should be the actual version. That year, other Halloween songs...
Could it Be Magic- Donna Summer/Take That, various others.
Venus- Shocking Blue
Chris Isaac- Wicked Game
Relight My Fire- Take That
Bleeding Love- Leona
Stay- Shakespears Sister
Back to Black- Amy Winehouse
Bat Out of Hell- Jim Streinman
2011:
The Risk sang Thriller
Others:
Bang Bang- Cher
Tainted Love- Gloria Jones/Soft Cell
E.T- Katy Perry
Eurhythmics- Sweet Dreams
Every Breathe you Take- The Police
Should I stay or should I Go- The Clash
Nobody sang Thriller in Halloween theme week in 2012.
Songs included...
Toxic- Britney
Poison- Nicole S
Bring Me To Life- Evanescence
(I'll be very surprised if they don't do Bring Me to Life). And as Ella sang this, I reckon Lauren would.
No Halloween theme in 2013.
So, we have had only Aiden and The Risk do Thriller.
Other songs I can see:
TATU- All the Things she Said
The Veronicas- Untouched
Justin Timberlake- Cry Me A River (I don't know why though).
Rihanna- Disturbia (IMO perfect for Fleur)
Of course while it seems obvious it would be Thriller, maybe it's something like Bohemian Rhapsody - just imagine 4 disembodied Stevi heads singing in chorus.
Stevi still seemed to think he was doing a ballard this week on sunday, and it sounded like plans were well aware for the thriller performance so i dont think its him

It's X Factor, of course it will feature!:D
Stevi will probably "sing" it.

Or Jack doing a slowed down version.
they are songs which deal directly with Halloween, or deal with related themes.
So songs like Thriller, Bat out of Hell, Monster Mash, The Creeps (Adore Delano), This is Halloween etc.
Pretty sure Ghostbusters will be in there too!

*shudder*
The only other possibility would be Stevi, but he's far more likely to do The Time Warp (again).
