30 spooky tracks to make your Halloween hot

We threw in some oldies and modern bangers into our cauldron

October 9, 2020

Halloween is almost here! No doubt you’re probably tired of hearing your friend tell this COVID-themed holiday joke; “Your costume isn’t complete without a mask… A FACE MASK!” (Sigh).

Wearing a mask is definitely important when it comes to safe trick-or-treating, but so is Halloween music!

So, shrug off those quarantine ghosts and rock out to our list of 30 spooky songs to get you in the Halloween spirit!

Rihanna - Disturbia

What's most spooky about this video is the thought of recreating those dance moves. Anybody but RiRi would pull their back...

Blue Oyster Cult - (Don't Fear) The Reaper

If you plan on jamming to this classic, please do so responsibly... with plenty of cowbell.

Bobby "Boris" Pickett - Monster Mash

Word to the wise; be aware this song is in fact a "grave yard smash." A lot of friendships have ended due to a lack of consensus on this.

The Eagles - Witchy Woman

Oooooooooo..... WITCHY WOMAN!

Alice Cooper - Feed My Frankenstein

Only problem with this track is the lack of candy references. A lot of pizza and hamburger talk, but would it kill Alice to throw in a Charleston Chew reference?

Bow Wow Wow - I Want Candy

Was this music video shot on an iPhone 2?

Ray Parker Jr. - Ghostbusters

Who you gonna call??

Ozzy Osbourne - Bark at the Moon

We recommend SPRINTING from home to home, demanding candy while blaring this from your 1990's boom box (OK, maybe don't do that).

Ministry - Everyday is Halloween

If every day was Halloween the dentist office would be packed!

The Black Keys - Howlin' For You

Watch out for werewolves!

AC/DC - Highway to Hell

This one goes out to all the houses handing out candy corn

Talking Heads - Psycho Killer

There's a lyric in this song, "I can't sleep because my bed is on fire." Why did you get in bed in the first place?!?

Billie Eilish - bury a friend

"Why aren't you scared of me...?" Who says we aren't?!?

Rockwell - Somebody's Watching Me

Rockwell seemed confused by the fact people are watching him. Seems pretty simple. People are just super jelly of those sweet curls

Michael Jackson - Thriller

A song that fits into the rare category of being overshadowed by an even better music video.

Screaming Jay Hawkins - I Put a Spell on You

The drum beats are especially spooky on this track

Whodini - Freaks Come Out at Night

If by "freaks" they mean candy lovers, then we couldn't agree more!

DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - A Nightmare On My Street

This is a truly frightening music video. 1980's Will Smith turns the intensity level up from "G" to "PG-13"

Radiohead - Creep

If only Thom Yorke would tell us what's been bugging him for 20 + years... We suppose he's just a creep... a weirdo...

Stevie Wonder - Superstition

Can never go wrong with a classic Stevie track

Selena Gomez, Marshmello - Wolves

Take your Halloween experience to new levels with this sexy/spooky track.

Fifth Harmony - I'm In Love With a Monster

We're in love with these costumes!

The Cranberries - Zombie

The single's true meaning is far more scary than any zombie.

Lady Gaga - Monster

"THAT BOY IS A MONSTTTTTERRR!!!"

Shakira - She Wolf

The thought of Shakira morphing into a she wolf is equal parts scary and intriguing.

Warren Zevon - Werewolves Of London

We'll pay any dollar amount for a costume similar to the werewolf in this music video... Just lovely.

Iggy Azalea - Black Widow ft. Rita Ora

The Kill Bill costumes are enough to make this song a new Halloween classic.

Duran Duran - Hungry like the Wolf

Did we mention our hunger for candy?

M83 - Midnight City

Imagine having the superpowers of the kids in this music video. Do you know know how much candy you could pull in one night?

The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil (Live)

Take us home, Mick!!
