Need a soundtrack to fuel your Halloween festivities? The
Now Playing Podcast team did the work for you!
To celebrate the spooky season, and one of our favorite times
of the year, we’ve compiled a collection of our favorite tracks from our
favorite horror and slasher flicks. This
playlist, which you can find on the Now Playing Podcast YouTube channel, celebrates
the best of the best from the Friday the 13th, A Nightmare on Elm
Street, The Lost Boys, The Monster Squad, and more.
We purposely steered
away from scores, so you won’t find John Carpenter’s classic Halloween theme or “Tubular Bells” from The Exorcist. We love
them, but we went with songs you could sing-along to at your party, in the car,
or wherever.
Hope you enjoy, and Happy Halloween!
