Halloween Playlist - Suggestions needed! - IvanD - 19-10-2013
Hi everyone.
I'm putting on a big halloween party this year and need a large playlist to accompany it. The friends coming are a mixed bumch with lots of different tastes so I've tried to put together a little bit of everything, but am still a bit biased towards stuff I like. Suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Suggestions don't necessarily need to be horror or halloween themed, just spooky or menacing etc
Heres what I've got already to give you an idea...
Thriller- Michael Jackson
Red Right Hand- Nick Cave
Halloween- Misfits
Bela Lugosi's Dead - Bauhaus
Dragula- Rob Zombie
Don't Fear The Reaper- Blue Oyster Cult
Highway To Hell- AC/DC

Clint Eastwood- Gorillaz
Pet Cemetery- The Ramones
Psycho Killer- Talking Heads
Ghost Town- The Specials
Science Fiction Double Feature- Me First & The Gimme Gimmes
Hell Yes- Alkaline Trio

Black No 1- Type O Negative
Die Die My Darline- Misfits (or Metallica)

Definitely "This is Halloween" by Danny Elfman. EvilB didn't specify it, so yeah. Yes the name is a little cheesy, but it's absolutely Halloween themed and a good song.
Have fun.
