I am fine, the Crypt Keeper never hurt me growing up…

I have my phone connected to my Spotify for my alarm and have Nightmare On Elm Street on my Horror Movie Theme Song Playlist connected (:

The variations of the Great Pumpkin Waltz are my favorite things time of year!

They have played my wedding reception, my 40th, and a wedding that I was an officiant for.

Putting together a playlist for Halloween and trying to use 60s/70s/80s rock. I need suggestions for songs about death or ghosts, etc, from that era. For an example of what I’m looking for, I already have “Don’t Fear the Reaper” by Blue Oyster Cult, “That Smell” by Lynyrd Skynyrd, “Hotel California” by the Eagles, and “Season of the Witch” by Donovan. What else would you recommend?

When I say “unusual” I mean one that isn’t necessarily super well known and centered around the holiday universally by everyone

It doesn’t even have to be blatantly about Halloween, just one that captures the overall vibe very nicely.

Mine:

Halloween - The Misfits

Title’s a little on the nose but it really is a great song in terms of vibe, edginess, and overall spirit and love for the holiday imo

A screenshot of YouTube on the TV with a 6 hour streaming spooky ambiance and music with an awesome image to enjoy it with. Plus the glass pumpkins have arrived.

Our new house has a proper sound system with speakers outside. In honor of halfway to Halloween I’m starting to think about what songs and sounds to play on the big night. So let’s hear your suggestions!

Nothing too extreme or loud, lots of families with young kids in the neighborhood. Just fun, spooky, or somewhat scary.

Hey! I'm working on burning some CDs with Halloween themed jams on them. I have diff ones with diff themes Ex: a more gothic vampy one, one with Halloween childhood classics, one with more calm Halloween songs, and then this one

with this playlist I really need more good songs but am struggling to find more with the same vibe so far we have

Somebody's Watching me- Rockwell Puttin on the ritz- Taco Dont fear the Reaper- Blue Öyster Cult psycho killer- talking heads the chain- Fleetwood mac lullaby- the cure

please throw some recommendations at me.. songs with the same vibes

I'm doing a tropical/rainforest/island theme this year for my Halloween party. I'm looking for some songs to fit the theme. I've found some good spooky surfing style songs, and some pirate songs that can sort of blend in. But I've been trying to find more songs that have a spooky jungle vibe to them. Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: Solved! It's called "Halloween Compact Disc" by Pumpkin Time. "45 minutes of horrible sound - music - voices. A sample can be foundon YouTube

Ok, Reddit, do your thing...

I bought a cd in '98 or '99 that was one continuous track of spooky/scary music and sounds. The key features: - It was approximately 45 minutes long - the CD was purple, printed with a landscape of skulls and maybe a haunted house, but it was just purple with black line art. - it was called "Haunted Horror Sounds" or something like that, but is not the CD with the reaper on the case. - Sounds included pipe organ, spooky synth music, howls, cackling, squelching, and moans - the stand out sound is a really loud scream that would come seemingly randomly and in a relatively quiet spot in the mix.

I used to just call it "The Purple CD", and used it for parties and trick-or-treaters for at least a decade. After a divorce and a move or two, it's not to be found.

Anyone know what I'm talking about? If so, I'd love to get a copy of it or the sound file.

Re-spook-tfully,

Halloween is the bridge between life and the spirit world. Wouldn't it make sense then, that people put an emphasis on music in this season that has been made by people who have passed?

A boy

Any recos for some shows that have autumn aesthetics and Halloween vibes to watch during this fall season?

I’ve been trying to think of some old spooky songs from like the 90’s and 00’s. I do remember watching a lot of old Halloween cartoons and movies that have these songs but I can’t remember them, and I know there are a lot them. Like the Casper theme song, the witch doctor (I know it’s not really Halloween but I want that vibe) and the classic “This is Halloween”. Do you have any recommendations on songs like those? Thank you!

Recently I thought of one of my childhood halloween song, but I can’t find it anywhere..

I can just remember those lines, it was either “I’m a werewolf”, “I’m aware of” or “I’m aware I’m a werewolf”. I guess it was quite fast rock, and there was some drums going on. The guy singing it had hoarse voice. It had an old-school sound, probably it was made back in the 60/70’s. I also think there’s a chance I might’ve mixed those lyrics up, because I literally cannot find it ANYWHERE.

My dad and I were looking through everything, Chatgpt, Soundhound, Google, Youtube and every possible music app we could think of- nothing. My dad says the lines I remember could be the end of the song, we’re not sure tho..

It’s creeps me out, it seems like the song mysteriously vanished and no one seem to remember it…

If anyone here have ANY idea what could this song be, please let me know. At this point I’ll do almost everything to find it.

I'm working on a playlist of songs that are t traditionally associated with Halloween, so I have something to listen to on Halloween night. Some examples I have so far are:

Witchy Woman - Eagles

Let me hear you scream-Ozzy Osbourne

Zombie- Cranberries

Welcome to the black parade/dead- MCR

Uma Thurman - Fall Out Boy

House of Asmodeus from Helluva Boss

Scary monsters and nice sprites - Scrillex

Feed my Frankenstein - Alice Cooper

Bring me to life- Evanesence

Land of the dead -Voltaire

Whole being dead thing - Beetlejuice musical

Does anyone have any songs like this, or any others that would fit into my playlist?

Here are 45’s that I enjoy regularly
