Let’s be real… some Halloween songs are silly and don’t get anyone in the mood to party. For YEARS I have worked on the perfect Halloween playlist for our annual Halloween party, and I think I finally got it ready to roll. I pulled my 55 favorites and now you can download my playlist on Spotify! Y’all know I’m a rock n roll fan so these songs are clearly rock heavy, but they’re all a lot of fun and completely Halloween/spooky themed.
So where did I get the idea for these songs? Some of them, you will see on most Halloween playlists, but a lot of them are unique to my playlist. I pulled many from classic horror movies (ex: Into the Fire by Dokken - Nightmare on Elm Street 3, Youth of America by Birdbrain - Scream soundtrack). Some came from the Stranger Things new soundtrack because they did a killer job of picking weird 1980s songs for the latest season (ex: Moving in Stereo by The Cars). And others are just so 1980’s awesome, they should be in an old horror movie or I can just picture them being played at a wild 80’s Halloween bash (for example: Metro by Berlin, Rock Lobster by B52s).
Now, let’s get to rockin’!
