Halloween Deeper Cuts

mossygreen had some videos to watch said Sat, Oct 26th 2019 at 1:55am ET

I’m not saying there’s a limit to the number of times one can listen to Thriller, Monster Mash, Bela Lugosi’s Dead, Tubular Bells or Werewolves of London, I’m just saying their piquancy could be better maintained through strategic spooky song deployment.

Let’s open up our Halloween playlists to lesser-known weird and disturbing songs!

The Human League, Circus of Death

DA! Dark Rooms

Foetus Corruptus, Honey I’m Home

Lambert, Hendricks & Ross, Halloween Spooks

- This one is my current favorite. Some have described it as Ghost Reggae
  
  These are just samples from the Nick the Rat Radio show that Nick used. His show is a hoot. Come visit us in the sewer at http://www.nicktherat.com/radio.html
  The show is live Wednesdays at 11:00 New York time. Past episodes available for download.
  
  He and the callers are telling scary stories all month long!

The entire genre of death metal would be appropriate.
A good entry point would be Slayer’s classic 1986 album Reign In Blood

Angel of Death:

Raining Blood:

I’m guessing these aren’t exactly what you were talking about…
