BOO! It's Halloween: time for ghosties and zombies and vampires and all sorts of weird and dread creatures to stalk the night seeking candy and treats at the doors! Lock up your supply of funsize Mars Bars --- they're out there and they're
hungry!
To tie in with the spooky celebrations, here is a selection of themed songs all about, you guessed it, supernatural creatures.
Start off with the great Annie Lennox, with her lovely bitter ballad, “Love song for a vampire”. Get yer teeth into this! (Sorry, sorry!)
Vampires not your thing? Try werewolves instead...
Japan had a great song way back when, entitled simply “Ghosts”...
… and the Cranberries sang about zombies....
… while the Eagles were more concerned with witchy women!
Of course, we couldn't leave out
the Halloween song, from the late Michael Jackson!
Then there's Tom Waits, who's not afraid to go “Whistlin' past the graveyard”. Think the ghosts would run from
him!
Perhaps one of the best and most famous songs about supernatural beings, here are Blue Oyster Cult, with “Don't fear the Reaper”.
You could always dance with the dead, like Axxis...
… or do the Graveyard Waltz with the Hooters.
Okay then, that's our little contribution to the ghostly goings-on that take place on this unhallowed night. Mind your step as you're leaving, and keep checking behind you! MWA-HAHAHAHA!
