Hellter’s Top Halloween Songs
Halloween Season is the best time of the year and I love everything about it! From Haunted Houses to Haunted Hayrides, Bonfires, Roasting Marshmellows and drinking apple cider, caramel apples, everything pumpkin, and pumpkin spice coffee. Nothing better then this time of the year. Oh, and of course good horror films. But nothing is better then going in your room, turning out the lights and listening to spooky Halloween songs.
Below you will find my personal top 8 as well as a big selection of other favorites at the bottom. You may not agree, but that’s ok, comment and tell me your favorites or any I might have missed.
So, get ready for Gruemonkey’s Top Spooky Halloween Songs!
8. Tuesday Knight- Nightmare from Nightmare on Elm Street 4:
For those of you who don’t know, Tuesday Knight played Kristen in Nightmare on Elm Street 4. Not only is she a great actress, but she’s an amazing talented singer as well. Really love her voice and love this song. I like nightmare on elm street 4, but this song made it even better.
7. Bobby Pickett- The Monster Mash and Sam The Sham-Lil Red Riding Hood tied for #7:
You can’t have a real Halloween party without playing one of these. Monster Mash brings your Halloween spirit out and makes you wanna have fun. Lil Red Riding Hood always makes me think of haunted hayrides and corn mazes and that’s never a bad thing.
Great rock with a great sound…nuff said!
5. Redbone- The Witch of New Orleans:
This song was made about a real witch who lived in New Orleans., Marie Laveau. Ya know, the chick Angela Basset played in season three of AHS? This has always been a favorite of mine, it make’s for a spooky little ditty to get in the spirit.
What can I say about this one. Thriller is a iconic song. Vince Price talks in this song and has his iconic laugh and Michael Jackson was just amazing and it has dancing zombies. Need I say more?
I love me some Stevie Nicks!. Stevie is a practicing witch and she even sang this song on American Horror Story. You can never go wrong with this gal, Halloween or not!
2. Black Sabbath- Black Sabbath:
When I was a kid, this song scared the crap out of me. It’s very disturbing. From Ozzy’s eerie voice to the scary beat. Just an all around creepy song that still send goosebumps up my arms.
1. Alice Cooper- The Man Behind the Mask: This is my favorite Halloween song. It’s Cooper, it’s Jason, it’s awesome! I can listen to this song over and over everyday.
