The Glad Matches’ Halloween Playlist Songs
Bobby ‘Boris’ Pickett, “The Monster Mash by Bobby Pickett”
That is the last word Halloween Jam in my view. It contains all of the ghoulies and goblins AND it’s sang by actual vampire?!? It doesn’t get extra Halloween than that.

Carnival of the Animals – Fossils by Camille Saint-Saens
Moreover Carnival of the Animals being a totally epic opus, Saint-Saens creativity utilizing the Xylophone to imitate the sounds of skeletons is unmatched. I completely love this piece and it at all times will get me Jonesing for some sweet.
Bach, “Toccata and Fugue in D Minor”

I might get so into Halloween and stockpiling sweet, I might actually map my route round city to get essentially the most sweet within the shortest period of time. The homes with cauldrons (unattended bowls) are those you’d need to hit ASAP. Cauldrons with king-size sweet bars have been the cream-of-the-crop. One 12 months I ended up amassing 14 kilos of sweet. I assumed it might final me the entire 12 months however it was mainly passed by December.
