Info

Like any holiday, music makes it better! Whether it's for a party, an event, a haunted house or other Halloween attraction, music is a vital element. However, you can only play Monster Mash or Thriller so many times before it gets old and most big box stores feature only rip-off music by some karaoke group you've never heard of. So with that in mind, we've seached our archives for some of the best Halloween compilation albums that cross different styles and some truly weird one of a kind singles you probably didn't know existed. The ultimate Halloween compilation album, "100 Hits of Halloween" is a 4 CD (and 1 Karaoke DVD) set of some the best Halloween music including Monster Mash, Ghostbusters, and Don't Fear the Reaper. But this compilation goes further including Frank Sinatra, Tony Martin, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison, Laverne Baker alongside of Alice Cooper, Poison, Run-DMC, Will Smith. This set spans the years from the 30s to the 80s. It also includes a bonus DVD of Karaoke covers including Thriller and Sympathy for the Devil to make any party different and fun. Want something different this year? Consider a throwback party Using Halloween Nuggets: Monster Sixties A Go-Go. This 99 track set is comprised solely of Sixties Halloween tunes by Garage Rock groups you've probably never heard but will enjoy all the more, mixed with movie trailers to change the tempo. There are some true surprises on this set like Bobby Bare singing Vampira, or Billy& the Dukes singing "Roland", a tribute song to Zacherley of Disco Teen and Chiller Theatre. Lord Luther is on here with Teenage Creature and the Abstracts doing "Nightmare". A must for collector's of 60s Halloween Music.
A compilation album brought to you by Little Steven's Underground Garage, but you may know him better as Steven Van Zandt of Bruce Springsteen's "E Street Band". No question to the songs on this one that include: Bruce Springsteen's Restless Nights, The Stems doing She's a Monster", I'm the Wolfman by the Fuzztones, The Chesterfield Kings rendition of Running Through My Nightmares, John Zacherley's Dinner with Drac, Carl Perkins "Put your Cat Clothes On" and Donovan's "Season of the Witch". 15 tracks in all of some of the most ecletic Halloween Songs put on CD. Little Steven delivers a true Halloween A Go GO. Who better than Elvira to bring you a true Mainstream Halloween CDs and Haunted Hits is one of the best. Monster Mash, Alice Cooper's "Welcome to My Nightmare", Jumpin' Gene Simmons "Haunted House", Dave Edmunds "Creature from The Black Lagoon", Ghostbusters, OingoBoingo's "Dead Man's Party just to name a few. Several other compilations by Elvira are just as good Elvira's Monster Hits featured Elvira's "Monsta Rap"and Revenge of the Monster Hits featuring Elvira doing "Haunted House. Dead of the Nite's TOP PICK! If you have only enough money to buy 1 CD, THIS IS THE ONE! Compiled by none other than Rob Zombie himself, the tracks on Halloween Hootnany are diverse, hard rocking' and fun. With an intro by John Zacherle follwed by Rob Zombie and the Ghastly Ones doing Halloween( She gets so Mean) your party will be rocking. Los Straightjackets turns in a spectacular rendition of the "Munster's Theme". From The Ghastly Ones "Banshee Beach, Creature Stole my Surfboard by the Dead Elvi and Ribcage Mambo by Frenchy this CD jumps from driving Rock to Hep to Surf to Rockbilly withn a macabre mambo thrown in for good measure. This is the roots of Psychobilly.
