Boo! It’s Halloween, and that means that Jake and I have chosen some scary songs to fill up our special horror-themed playlist.
And let me tell you, it’s hard to pick 10 songs that are in the spirit of Halloween (especially when trying to stray from picking the same tracks from last year’s Halloween entry). But through the inclusion of horror film/TV/videogame soundtracks as well as Halloween staples, we’ve stitched together a playlist that Dr. Frankenstein surely would be proud of.
Highlighted in the 20 songs this week are cuts from John Carpenter, Dead Man’s Bones,
