A Halloween Invitation
An invitation to a party is far more than a placeholder for your diary. It is the signature of your intention. It could include the perfunctory requirements of a toddler's Monster Mash OR it could contain the sniff of a scent that is the tease of anticipation for your....

A Spookalicious Soundtrack
Music is my favorite way to connect with the world. Everything I do has a soundtrack. Reading a classic? Orchestral music is playing in the background. Doing calculus homework? Listening to 2000s punk rock helps redirect my anger and frustration. Feeling a little sad? Put some Christmas music on to lighten the mood. Even if I’m not actively doing anything, there is almost always a song playing through my head at any given moment.

We The Monsters
Halloween is about horror and monsters and being scared and going to haunted houses and haunted mazes and getting a thrill. However, most are on the human side of things whereas we monsters and demons only have this one night to cross over and wreak havoc on the mortal world. We want to party with our fangs bared, our wings out and our eyes glowing. These are the songs for us.

A Collaborative Halloween Playlist on Spotify
This year for Halloween, my teenage daughter and I are planning a Halloween party with our circle of people. (All vaccinated). The guests are all family and close friends. Aunts, Uncles, siblings, grandkids, teenagers, young adults, gen-Xers, and baby boomers. A multigenerational melting pot, or should I say, cauldron. We have the best time when we are together, and this party will be no exception.

Haunting melodies that leave a mark
What is the scariest thing you can think of? Is it a zombie? No, a fierce creature? A vampire? Let me think some more. Maybe a shark? But they're not really scary in-less you're in the water and in most cases, they're not going to be that interested in you. No, what is the scariest and deadliest creature known to us? Humans. It has to be humans. Of course, Halloween is more about spooky ghosts and ghouls than humans. Let's face it though the most real and scary threat you can face is another unknown human being. If I'm out in the woods all by myself the thought of meeting another unknown human is a truly terrifying thought. I'd rather be out there by myself if I'm completely honest. Following on with that theme is the idea behind this playlist I am about to present to you. A spooky and haunting playlist, however not in a traditional sense. There will be no ghouls or goblins here. Just haunting melodies and musing on the state of the human condition. I mean, after all, what keeps you up at night? The fact there could be a monster under the bed or the possibility the person you're sleeping next to could be a monster and you just don't know it yet...........................

Tunes to Chill you to the Bone...
Imagine this: a Hallowe’en gathering that involves a whole bunch of awesome friends (chatting and banter aplenty) with drinks in hand, sat foot tapping round a campfire. The surrounding woodland creaking and looming under a full moon, with various instruments being twanged and jammed to this playlist, creating a perfectly mixed potion for an epic all Hallows night..

Boos on Broadway: A Halloween Playlist
After more than a year of darkness due to the pandemic, the lights of Broadway are shining brightly once again. And I, for one, am ready for those curtains to part, transporting me and the audience on a shared journey. Live performances affect us in palpable ways, building empathy and nurturing compassion. Of course, they also take us to the darker sides of humanity. As soon as box offices opened, I planned a weekend to New York City. This month I’ll be attending Moulin Rouge and Six, in addition to two traveling Broadway shows, Waitress and Pretty Woman, in Washington DC before the end of year.

Your Soundtrack to 90,000 Hours in Hell
Imagine a horror film where someone is willingly held captive and tortured for 90,000 hours, almost a third of their life. The torturer teases them by promising a few days off the horror every week but never keeps their word. This person's freedom is curtailed until they're broken, psychologically and mentally.

Do not hear this Playlist on Halloween!
The first time that I've heard about Halloween was when I was ten years old and learning a new language in English classes. Don't get me wrong, I've seen Halloween in movies on TV, but preparing and enjoying Halloween it's a whole new part of it.

Have a Hardcore Halloween
For as long as I can remember: Halloween has/is/ and will always be hands down my favorite holiday and in general favorite time of the year. From the costumes, music, parties, cool/cold weather, and the spooky atmosphere I love everything Halloween has to offer. Shame it only comes around once a year. Now we all know the classics for this time of the year. Songs like: Monster Mash, Thriller, This is Halloween, I put a spell on you, etc are all classics. I love them all, however I already know they're going to be discussed to death in general let alone for this challenge. So I decided why not throw in my own choices for songs that can easily become classics give the chance. As always in no particular order.
