Halloween is a celebration of friends, family, amped-up parties, costumes and the iconic sounds of Halloween. If you want to impress your guests with a great Halloween party atmosphere, it will need a killer soundtrack from beginning to end; be it a dance party or a slow-paced celebration with spooky room décor. Either way, a good assortment of Halloween songs creates the right mood from the beginning, lifts the spirits of your guests and keeps an energetic spirit throughout the night. In this guide, you will find some of the best Halloween songs to celebrate in style and have the most memorable night of the first half of the year. Our covers you make your Halloween party playlist a real game changer with your choice of music. Pumpkins, costumes; you got it all covered, but the background music can make or break the mood for a memorable night with your friends or family.
“Witchy Woman” by Eagles It’s got a mystical vibe and still captures the essence of Halloween while being a good song to sing along to
“The Time Warp” from The Rocky Horror Picture Show A cult classic with a catchy beat and dance moves that gets everyone involved.
“Little Shop of Horrors (Main Theme)” by Alan Menken The upbeat tune and playful melody of Little Shop of Horrors is a fun and silly tune to add to your party.
“Spooky Love” by the Old 97’s A fun quirky indie rock tune that gives your playlist a little playfulness.
“Freaks Come Out at Night” by Whodini This classic hip-hop tune with a fun beat and catchy hooks is great for capturing the spirit of the holiday.
“I Want Candy” by Bow Wow Wow An upbeat fun tune that’ll bring you and your guests back to your silly childhood days.
“This Is Halloween” by Marilyn Manson (cover of a song by Danny Elfman from the stop-motion film The Nightmare Before Christmas) A gloomy and vaguely sad-sounding take on the original by the godfather of gothic rock. Nothing else puts you in a mood like this.
“Join Me in Death” by HIM It’s a great-sounding song. Very romantic on the surface, yet seems quite horrifying at a deeper level. Very gothic in this way.
“Dragula” by Rob Zombie This fast, harsh song is heavy on the death metal feel. It’s perfect for a giant Halloween party with dark themes and alcohol
“Bela Lugosi’s Dead” by Bauhaus The anthem of the gothic rock movement, with its slow build and eerie atmosphere.
“Lips of Blood” by The Misfits I wouldn’t call it a favourite and, in fact, it’s pretty objectionable, because – like any kind of goth, grunge or heavy metal – these fast grim riffs will give you a nasty headache after a while. But if you like this type of stuff, that’s just great! As for me, I prefer slower and more atmospheric songs.
Any Halloween party is best enjoyed with a good soundtrack. A mix of high-energy electronic dance tracks and throwbacks, eerie and even unnerving melodies, fun songs with Halloween-related lyrics, and gothic rock will keep you and your partygoers dancing throughout the night.
