monster mash song


Playlist: 10 songs for Halloween

Christmas carols get all of the love, but there are some good Halloweens songs, or songs good for Halloween, too. Here are 10 bone-chilling tunes for your Halloween party, trick-or-treat festival or dark pagan ritual. Do you have your own favorites not on this list? Add them in the comments section below.

1. "Monster Mash" by Bobby "Boris" Pickett. Campy, yes. But a classic.

2. "Season of the Witch" by Donovan. Mentions witches right in the title. Perfect.

3. "Black Sabbath" by Black Sabbath. These metal gods recorded plenty of awesome songs, but this is the only one that's scary, thanks to Ozzy pleading, "Oh, no, no, please, God, help me," then getting washed away by Tony Iommi's sweet doom riff.

4. "Re: Your Brains" by Jonathan Coulton. Corporate zombies attack in the office. Nooooooo!

5. "Thriller" by Michael Jackson. Dancing ghouls throwing down to a kick-ass bass line in the best music video of all time. Dig it.

6. "Dead People Unite" by Werewolph. Part of a Ryan Adams cheese-metal side project, this song won't be easy to find. But it's a ghoulish gem. Adams sings in a raspy voice about taking down the living where they least expect it: while they're on the Stairmaster. See also: "Mega Wizards." Adams' "Halloweenhead" is another excellent choice, and easier to find.

7. "I Was a Teenage Werewolf" by the Cramps. Old-school garage rock with trebly guitars and Lux Interior's unhinged, reverb-soaked vocals.

8. "Werewolves of London" by Warren Zevon. Speaking of werewolves, don't mess with this one. He's dapper, but he'll rip your lungs out, Jim.

9. "Boris the Spider" by the Who. Spiders are creepy.

10. "Trick or Treat" by Tim Fite. Which reminds me: Fite gives away his third and final Halloween EP tomorrow,
