The Ultimate Halloween Playlist




Nothing sets a mood quite like music, so I’ve been putting together the ultimate Halloween playlist for quite some time.

This playlist contains everything from fun Halloween party classics like Monster Mash to moody songs from TV and movie soundtracks, to Goth and Metal songs that will make you feel the darkness of the season down into the depths of your soul.

I think this will always be a work in progress as I discover songs that are perfect for the list, as new songs are released and as friends suggest amazing additions.

My ever growing list can be found on Spotify if you’d like to stay up to date.
