Screaming Soup!

Howdy there, Scream Freaks! Halloween’s still creepin’ up ’round the corner, but with this bein’ the last weekend of October, it’s high party time for all us spooks and ghouls ready to blow this holiday out! Trick ‘r treatin’ will still be reserved for the true calendar date of course, but the majority of us are ready to get the good times rollin’ with rowdy get-togethers full of costumed creeps, fright flicks, gross out grub, and most importantly — hauntin’ tunes that’ll rock ya to the bone!

Yessir, music ain’t our strongest area of trivia, but we sure as shootin’ love it, and that’s why we took it upon ourselves to compile what we consider the best playlist of horror related tunes to jam out to this Halloween. A nice mix of upbeat tracks with pops of mellow melodies to break it up, our list is comprised of over 300 songs we’ve hunted down over the years, all which have somethin’ to do with horror. Songs from all grades of horror movie soundtracks, ditties with dark lyrics, and terrifyin’ tunes sung by monstrous musicians we enjoy listenin’ to on a daily basis at the Howl-Inn Grub & Spirits.

Now, ‘fore ya say anythin’, we admit we omitted some mainstream classics like “This is Halloween” from The Nightmare Before Christmas, Sheb Wooley’s “Purple People Eater,” ‘long with fan favorite themes from Psycho, Halloween, and Tales From the Crypt. Not ’cause we forgot ’bout ’em, mind ya! This list was primarily made for our own entertainment as stuff we’d enjoy at a party, and those beats (as much as we like ’em) just aren’t things we wanna hear after a double play of Metallica or Alice Cooper ’cause they’re more ’bout buildin’ forebodin’ atmosphere versus lively fun. But hey, if that rocks yer boat the wrong way, than we encourage ya to use our playlist as a launchin’ pad for creatin’ your own mix of jack-o-lantern jams.
