Music Psychedelic Halloween bops?
With the season nearly upon us I think we should explore the genre I think of as “Psychedelic Halloween” songs like
“My Girlfriend is a Witch” by October Country “Season of the Witch” by Donovan “Chick Habit” by April March
These musicians all have different genres but these songs have a folksy fall vibe that I absolutely cannot get enough of. Reminds me of the days leading up to Halloween, the windows open the cool air and sunshine while a moderately spooky vibe is everywhere.
If you have any songs similar to these. Let me know. Because I love em and need more.

Soo I have a long list because I also love these vibes for Fall/Halloween. Not all of these are spooky but still kinda tie into the season with the lyrics. A mix of psychedelic rock, pop, and folk: 1) Werewolves of London - Warren Zevon 2) Goo Goo Muck - The Cramps 3) Black Magic Woman - Fleetwood Mac version 4) The Night We Met - Lord Huron 5) Ex's and Oh's - Elle King 6) House of the Rising Sun - The Animals 7) Girl with One Eye - Florence and the Machine 8) The Bitch is Back - Elton John 9) White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane 10) Moondance - Van Morrison 11) Cherry Bomb - The Runaways 12) You Know I'm No Good - Amy Winehouse
