Somebody's Watching Me
Theme song to the Twilight Zone
Gene Simmons - Haunted House

Boris the Spider
Werewolves of London
Theme song from The Munsters

18. Almost anything by Roky Erickson and the Aliens
Edited on Sat Sep-26-09 01:35 PM by BurtWorm
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PapOL54b8y0

This is one of my favorites--a mini-opera called Stand for the Fire Demon.


Stand for the fire demon
rising into and with the clouds
stand for the fire demon
Satans is his crowd
stand for the fire demon
stand and feel it loud

Stand for the fire demon
past 12 tis one and one
stand for the fire demon
past 12 tis not one
stand for the fire demon
burning fiery bright
stand for the fire demon
stand for the demon of fire

stand for the fire demon
Satans are we, Satans am I
stand for the fire demon
spirits say boo and the paper bursts into fire
stand for the fire demon
wilder wilder wilder wilder
stand for the fire demon
stand for the demon of fire
stand for the demon of fire
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand for the fire demon
stand fir the demon of fire

23. "Dancin With Mr. D", the Rolling Stones - a great song,
meant for Halloween.

Great video, too.

24. No explicit lyrics
but check out some songs from the Donny Darko and Edward Scissor Hands sound tracks. They are pretty haunting.

26. "Killing Moon" by Echo & the Bunnymen is one of my all-time favorites.
I believe it was used in Donny Darko, although I've never seen that film.

28. You should see the film
Killing Moon is on the sound track. Get the Director's edition and both CD's. It is a great movie with a great sound track.
