Wolfman by Hellfish is uber theatrical. And a pounding track to boot.

I also find it strange that nobody mentioned The Misfits. Pretty much all of their songs are halloween related. Especially the song "holloween" :lol:

Oh there's some good ones suggested. But can't believe no one has mentioned

The Blue Oyster Cult - Don't Fear the Reaper

As used in every teen slasher film ever.

Hang on, me and my mate have played this as the uplifting track to finish a set off with. Good though. Should be in there anyway.

Yeah, I love that song too. One of my colleagues has it for her ringtone and when I said, "Hells Bells!!!" she just gave me a blank look. Apparently her son put it on there. But anyways, every time her phone rings I hear the guitar intro and that's just fine with me.

I made the remix on the following site with hopes that DJ's would consider playing it in their Halloween party sets:

Give it a listen, let me know what you think.
