I especially like the last option, as it sounds like Trumphalism. “There isn’t a perfect single-word English synonym for Schadenfreude, but here are some phrases and terms that capture similar ideas:

  • Malicious joy
  • Gloating
  • Sadistic delight
  • Morbid satisfaction
  • Smugness (when directed at someone’s failure)
  • Triumphalism (if it involves a sense of victory over someone else’s misfortune)
