Creature Feature - A Halloween Playlist

It's my favourite time of the year! Pumpkin carving, Halloween specials, trick-or-treaters, horror movies, dead leaves (and the dirty ground)... Nothing beats Halloween! Last year, I brought you a few different playlists, this one here at Jukebox Hero, and this one, full of symphonic Halloween tunes for the HPO. This year, instead of mood music, I'm bringing you a playlist full of songs dedicated to our favourite monsters and classic horror movie characters. Perhaps they'll serve as a source of inspiration for a last minute costume idea (slackers, I'm looking in your direction).

Nothing against the Monster Mash, but you won't find that here. You won't find Thriller on this list either. Listen to these tunes as you're getting your costumes together, having a few drinks, doling out the candy (read: eating more of it than you give to the kids)... whatever it is you're doing to get you into the holiday spirit! Be safe and be spooky!

Alice Cooper - Feed My Frankestein
Warren Zevon - Werewolves of London
