"Thriller" by Monsieur Jackson.
"Sympathy for the Devil" - Stones/Roses(ha ha.. just figured it! Original By Rolling Stones, cover by Guns N'Roses = Stone Roses... god i need a life!
"Riders on The Storm" is also kinda spooky
What was theme from the Lost Boys!?
Anything by Westlife, Boyzone or the Corrs is pretty scary too!

stoat, teddy bears picnic, or their version of que cera cera,
fantoma's music is great for atmosphere, especially delerium cordial, but its not for dj s to use on unsuspecting music fans,

Since when did Halloween get so big ? Are they festivites planned, never realised it merited "themed songs", I always thought it would be lanquishing at the bottom of the Festive league table. All this talk of themed songs here puts it up there with Xmas, you are a jolly lot! My blanket ban on this type of thing may need a rethink.

If memory serves me correctly it was a cover of the Doors' "People are strange" by Echo & The Bunnymen.
Thanks for all the tips everyone. Someone recommended Lullaby by the Cure to me last night as well. God that video use to freak me out when I was a kid.
Can anyone reccommend a particulary spooky Tom Waits one? I'm thinking of "What's He Building In There" but that might freak people out totally. |

For Waits, try the whole 'Real Gone' album or 'Little Drop Of Poision' from the Shrek 2 soundtrack.
