If you are looking for inspiration for your Halloween playlist this year, then look no further. Here are 10 songs from a handful of genres that will make getting ready and having a boogie the highlight of your evening.

Black Sabbath, Black Sabbath

In 1970, Ozzy and Tony Iomi tired of making blues music and decided instead to make music that scares people. The intro to their debut album epitomizes everything they are about and it’s also essential to your Halloween playlist.

This Is Halloween, Maralyn Manson

This awesome albeit slightly corny track has become a Halloween essential after its appearance in Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.

Black Magic Woman, Carlos Santana

This song is not only appropriately themed but is sure to fill you with confidence and empowerment as you put on your costume.

She’s My Witch, Kip Tyler

If you’re dressing as a witch this year, you might want to consider making this your anthem for the evening.

Garbageman, The Cramps

The Cramps are a core psychobilly band, which is a genre that combines elements of rockabilly with punk and yeah, it’s also scary.

Halloween, Sonic Youth

Another staple Halloween tune for post punk fans and grungers.

Dark Entries, Bauhaus

Halloween is the perfect time to brush up on your goth knowledge. Here’s a classic tune from the Bauhaus catalogue.

Lullaby, The Cure

‘Lullaby’ is an iconic tune from the band’s goth days. It’s beautifully creepy and nightmarish.

Zombie, The Cranberries

In case of a zombie apocalypse.

Time Warp, The Rocky Horror Picture Show

If ‘Time Warp’ isn’t on your Halloween playlist, what are you doing with your night? Are you even having fun? How can you not boogie to Time Warp??
