Songfacts®:

• This is the first single from alternative metal band Stone Sour's third album Audio Secrecy. It was released on July 6, 2010.
• Frontman Corey Taylor admitted to The Pulse of Radio that it took him a while to warm up to "Haunt Me" during the recording of Audio Secrecy. "It was one of those songs that I didn't really feel until it was finished," he said. "I enjoyed the lyrics but I wasn't sure about the music. I'd come in and I'd sang it, and I put my heart into it because the lyrics are about my wife and how I feel about my wife, and then I left. And I came back and they (the band) had just made it incredible. Now I can't get it out of my head."
• Taylor explained to Artist Direct why this was released as the album's lead single: "That song really showed its face in the studio. It became a whole different monster when we recorded it, which really made me extremely happy because of the subject matter. The song lyrically is about my new wife and how passionate I am about her. It's a very positive song. It's got that urgency about it that she brings out of me. I love how everything came together, and it's almost like we didn't even realize we had that song. When we were demoing it, practicing it and watching it take shape, we didn't realize what we had. We went in the studio, recorded it and it became a wholly different monster. It has taken off. I'm just really happy that song has risen to where I wanted it to be musically because it's such a special and important song to me."
• Taylor told Kerrang! "'Say You'll Haunt Me' is a song about my (new) wife and how I feel about her. It's about the crazy passion I have for her. She's probably the best person I've ever met."
• The song's music video was directed by Paul R. Brown and premiered on July 27, 2010. It uses the album version of the song, not the short radio edit. Taylor told Spin magazine about the clip: "It's a video we shot with [director] Paul Brown (Slipknot, Korn) and tried to tie in the same concepts as the artwork for the album. The concept is that things aren't necessarily what they seem, and any moment the tide can change. I wanted to make something that people were going to talk about."
