Zombie Mash: Get Spooked At This Awesome Virtual Halloween Party!
For several years now, I’ve been a passionate metalhead! I love getting spooked with all kinds of heavy metal, punk, dark rap and screamo hits I’ve listened to for the last seven years. From listening to classic rock hits like Rattlesnake Shake by Motley Crüe and the most recent screamo hit like Rock ‘n’ Roll (Will Take You To The Mountain) by Skrillex, I’ve had multiple moments where I’ve been spooked!

The Festival of the Dead
It's the start of the Dark Half when the boundary to the Otherworld is at its weakest. The souls of the deceased, the Aos Sí, will move more easily into our world on this night; they will return to their former homes and loved ones for one night.

Spook-tacular Tunes: the Perfect Halloween Playlist
So, you've organised your costume, made plans with friends, prepared the candy, and delicately arranged a series of intricate decorations. Great! Now what? The playlist of course! No event or holiday season would be complete without an appropriately themed playlist of songs.

A Playlist to DIE For...
Playlists can be tricky things, and there is no one-size-fits-all. Sure, there are some staples, like Nutbush at an Australian Wedding, or Whitney Houston's "I Wanna Dance With Somebody" (or desperately trying to hide under the nearest table when Macarena starts playing and Great-Uncle Bob gets that gleam in his eye...). Overall, however, a party playlist should be tailored to the occasion, and Halloween parties are no exception.

It's Spooky Time Once Again
A spooky playlist for Halloween? Do you mean the one I listen to every other week just because I want to see the reaction of those willing to let me drive them places? The one I listen to in the car when I’m by myself, windows down, July? This challenge is right up my alley. Of the 60 or so stories and poems I’ve written and submitted to Vocal so far, I’ve touched on a cemetery setting twice, end-of-life scenarios four times, the underworld three times, a requiem, a conversation with a ghost, a review of a haunted amusement park, and my own eulogy. A prevailing theme permeates much of what I like to write. A playlist to go with the normal dark side of me as well as the Spooky Time decorations I put up weeks ago already? Yes. Very yes.
