Some of these songs are on almost everyone’s Halloween playlist but there are a few that I enjoy and haven’t seen on other playlists. So, if you’re just putting together your first Halloween playlist or just looking for something new to add to your current playlist there should be something for everyone.
Oh, if you know of one that I missed feel free to let me know in the comments – I am always looking to expand my playlist. Happy Haunting!
