Other than the greatest Halloween song ever created (http://hypernonsense.com/hnextras/Halloween_Is_Awesome.mp3) what are your favorite Halloween? A friend of mine is throwing a Halloween / Birthday party and I was charged with "obtaining" the music. I will start by knocking out a few easy ones out.
Halloween is Awesome

for me its gotta be a song from The Lost Boys movie soundtrack.
Cry Little Sister - by Gerald Mcmann. Actually there are a few songs on that soundtrack that would do a halloween party good.

Anything by Slayer, or any other death metal band, if you can stand to listen to it would be pretty scary. Then again, so would anything by Yoko Ono.

Maybe I haven't read the thread thouroughly enough, but I didn't spot the Ghostbusters theme music mentioned.
There was some good stuff on the soundtrack to the first film "The Crow" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Crow_(album)) too.

Right now, my fav. is a cd set by Manheim Steamroller. They put 3 discs together in the set...one is a spooky sounds set, one is a bunch of remixed halloween songs, and one is a dance mix/video disc with music videos of 3 of the songs, and dances instuctions for them (that one's kind of funny).
I like to play the FX disc while waiting for trick-or-treaters... it adds to the ambiance of the creepy stuff in my yard.
Anything by Slayer, or any other death metal band, if you can stand to listen to it would be pretty scary.
Yeah - I am going to have to go through my metal collection when I get home. Off the top of my head I am thinking...
anything by white/rob zombie
Heretic Anthem - Slipknot
Sanitarium - Metallica
South Texas Deathride - The Union Underground
BTW
I am thinking horror movie soundtracks might be a decent place to look. If I remember a lot of the newer ones are littered with metalcore songs.

Man I love the Monster Mash. It's such a fun song to dance to. Someone should remix that for the clubs. Booyaaa!
