The Scarecrow is the third full-length album by Tobias Sammet's German metal opera project Avantasia, released on 25 January 2008 through Nuclear Blast Records. It is the first part of "The Wicked Trilogy" and it is followed by The Wicked Symphony and Angel of Babylon. Sammet explained in a 2016 interview that he managed to have Alice Cooper after drummer Eric Singer asked him. Cooper requested to have a listen to the song first and then accepted to be part of it. Commenting on the album's 17th anniversary in January 2025, Sammet said The Scarecrow "laid the foundation of what Avantasia is today" and that it "marks the birth of Avantasia after our first tentative steps a few years before".
