So far I’ve got
Lydia Lunch’s cover of Spooky (post-punk)
Type O Negative’s Black No. 1 (probably the single version) (goth rock)
Werewolf Bar Mitzvah (boys becoming men, men becoming wolves.)
The Specials - Ghost Town (Ska)
Shocked by the lack of bobby pickett’s monster mash (Halloween pop?)
Besides the obvious ones:
- “Hell” - Streetlight Manifesto
- “Wolf Like Me” - TV on the Radio
- “Anybody Else” - Dom Fera
Also, a bunch of songs by Bear Ghost! “Haunt, The Cartoon Heart,” “Necromancin Dancin,” “Rivers is a Vampire,” and others.
“iiiiiiiiiinnnnn the afterlife you could be heading for some serious strife”
Wait, I thought that was Squirrel Nut Zippers?
🎶now you make us sing all day, but tomorrow there’ll be hell to pay 🎶
It was originally! SLM did a really sick cover of it.
Where. Is. Thriller?
But seriously props OP. Type O is a great answer. I’m going to add (other than Michael Jackson) the song When You’re Evil by Voltaire.
Danse Macabre
This is Halloween, This is Halloween…everyone hail to the pumpkin song!
Is most of the lyrics I recall of the first song that comes to my mind.
Has to have Rockwell on it!

Alice Cooper - He’s back (the man behind the mask)
Pet Semetary by Ramones!
I have a 108 song Halloween playlist!
