When it comes to Halloween what are your go to songs? Do you already have a playlist ready for when you’re walking with your kids, nieces and nephews trick-a-treating? Here’s a list of some songs that I used to hear when I was younger and still play till this day.
Michael Jackson/“Thriller”
This song reminds me of being in elementary school having a Halloween party. It also puts me in the Halloween spirit when I’m taking my nieces and nephews trick-or-treating and we’re playing music as we’re going door to door.
Hocus Pocus soundtrack/“I put a spell on you”
on you. I prefer this song because they jazzed it up more and made it a bop. It’s also a core memory from when I was younger and I had watched it with my sister and grandparents.
Rockwell/“Somebody watching me”
Bobby Pickett ft. Michael Jackson.
Listening to this song and walking around trick-or-treating. Also that everyone is watching each other go door-to-door asking for candy.
Bobby Pickett/“Monster Mash” This song reminds me of working at a daycare and the kids went room to room trick-or-treating.
MichAel Jackson/“Ghosts”
This song has a 90’s vibe with the beats and the lyrics as well. It’s simply a hit that have the usual dancing and movie music videos that Micheal always used to deliver.
John Carpenter “Halloween Theme – Main Title” & “The Shape Lurks” Perhaps the most iconic of all Halloween music comes from none other than of course, the original ‘Halloween’ directed and musically composed by John Carpenter. Released in 1983, these two tracks specifically filled my childhood with terror, along with millions of others. The classic music is infamous and continues to strike a fear-chord with people to this day.
