For Christmas, there are hundreds and hundreds of Christmas Carols…but what are the Halloween Carols? If you are going to have a party, here’s a start to your very own Halloween Playlist. We are linking to various YouTube videos of the songs so you can recall the song. We don’t have the copyright and will remove from the list if requested.

Monster Mash

You can’t have a list of Halloween without this tune. It started it all!

Spooky, Scary Skeletons

I always forget the name of this song, so now you have it. You’re welcome.

I Want Candy

Who doesn’t want candy at Halloween?

Ghostbusters

While I’m trying not to have too many horror movie themes, I think this one transcends a movie theme.

Time Warp

What the F**** Was That?

You weren’t expecting to see this here, were you?

Purple People Eater

Someone is Watching Me

Dead Man’s Party

Before he wrote all those movie themes, Danny Elfman made some other songs…

Zombie Zoo

You gotta love that I worked Tom Petty into the list.

Nightmare on My Street

Welcome to my Nightmare

This is Halloween

Am I old that I consider this a NEW classic?

The Thing

This is why I’m posting the videos. No one remembers the name of this song.

Running with the Devil

Killer Klowns from Outer Space

Thriller

Couldn’t really do this list and leave this song out!

So how did I do with my list? Did I forget your favorite? Which of these would you like to hear covered by a new artist?
