The Shadow Parade are minor antagonists in the multimedia franchise Evillious Chronicles, serving as the titular villains protagonists of Red Shoes Parade and minor antagonists of the song Madam Merry-Go-Round. They are a group of criminals who steal, rape, and kill people, while claiming to do so in the name of justice.

What Makes Them Hate Sinks?

• They claim to act for justice by saying that all their victims are bad people and that they are fighting for justice, when they confirmed that they killed a person just for envy and that they raped a family to console themselves.
• Is shown that they committed multiple killings due to the dozens of tombs in the village and the fact that there are no criminals beside them.
• They robbed a person while give the excuse that they did that because he was going to rob someone.
• They broke into a house and stole all the food that it had, just because they were hungry, and it was the house of an “evil thief”.
• Upon discovering a family in the woods, they raped them, including the children, to console themselves, and it's implied that they could have killed them.
  • Since it's said that they “yearn for people in sunset”, it's implied that they're serial rapists.
• When they saw an "evil thief" happy, they decided to kill him out of pure jealousy.
• They showed arrogance by demanding that people praise them, while saying they would never stop their 'journey'.
• They planned to continue their crime spree before being burned to death by their red-hot iron shoes.
• Gammon Octo showed disgust at them, saying that he would rather be known as a cruel person than become like them.
• It's implied that the Shadow Parade song is played by the inhabitants of the Evil's Theater to the intruders when they are condemned to the Hellish Yard, implying that the Shadow Parade is hated even by them, which include a corrupt judge and a cannibal.
• Unlike most Evillious Chronicles villains who, at the very least, had some redeeming quality or loved ones, The Shadow Parade are just a group of psychopaths that do crimes "For The evulz" who we don't even know if they even care about each other.
  • It could be that they instead see each other as pawns for their own uses.

Trivia
