Halloween by The Misfits!!!! That song is my yearly ritual on Halloween :) Halloween, the first one, not the send which is done in Latin.

Just do a google search for Misfits Halloween.mp3 I am sure you can find it. I am at work else I would give you the direct link. The lyrics are a little somthing like this:

"bonfires burning bright pumpkin faces in the night i remember halloween dead cats hanging from poles little dead are out in droves i remember halloween brown leaved vertigo where skeletal life is known i remember halloween this day anything goes burning bodies hanging from poles i remember halloween halloween, halloween, halloween, halloween candy apples and razor blades little dead are soon in graves i remember halloween this day anything goes burning bodies hanging from poles i remember halloween"

Can't go wrong witha a punk rock song about Samhain, brings a tear to my eye everytime I hear it ;)

I thought about putting in the "Time Warp", but I'm still trying to find a decent mp3 of it.

I hadn't thought of The Exorcist, although I probably should have. Lemme see what I can do...

...can't forget Grieg

I actually have a really kick-ass metal version of "Hall of the Mountain King" by a group called Apocalyptica. I'll go ahead and stick it in the mix!

Carl Orff - O Fortuna (from Carmina Burana)
That's a bit dancy. And it's a song about gamblers praying to Lady Luck.

HERE'S What ya want!
Danny Elfman's Music for a Darkened Theater. There's gotta be stuff on there you'll want.

And - Go to my webpage about spooky music.
I do have some select Silent Hill track available for download and there's a link there that will auto-play some of Patrick O'Hearn's music. From his scary album.
I'll upload more songs later on if you want. Silent Hill music is a tad hard to find. Silent Hill 3 is the only one that came with a soundtrack CD.
From: [identity profile] drewbeartx.livejournal.com
I've tried to download the Silent Hill files a couple of times over the last few days, and I keep getting a "you have no permission" message. I know that on Yahoo groups this means that the site has gone over its transfer limits, but I don't know if it's the same for you.

Ok that sucks. Now 2 days a ago I was backing up my website, deleting things and trying to upload a 134 meg file. Which still hasn't took yet.
The day before that I did post that Demotivator pic so it may have tanked my bandwidth.
Did you try Rightclicking and saving?

Did you sample the Patrick O'Hearn?

(I'll check on it tonight as my work blocks me from downloading off my own webpage.)

this is slightly weird

I can watch my Silent Hill Trailers just fine, though. Really odd - you'd think video would be blocked.
