Are you dissatisfied with the Halloween party playlists you come across? I certainly am. Too short, or too many songs that are only marginally appropriate. That’s why I created a playlist on Spotify that includes well-known favorites (like “Thriller,” of course) and lesser-known gems (“Burn the Witch” by Radiohead). The compilation currently fills just under 3 hours of music. Most are popular songs but I’ve thrown in a few TV and movie themes as well.

Some songs are humorous or whimsical (such as “Monster Mash” or “The Happy Phantom” by Tori Amos). Some songs are ominous (“Enter Sandman” by Metallica). Some are atmospheric (Poe’s “Haunted”). Others are simply thematic in a popular style (Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition” or Tom Petty’s “Zombie Zoo”). The list offers a balance of rock, pop, R&B, metal, alternative, Afrobeat, EDM. If you have a suggestion to add to the list, let me know.
