Playlist: Creepy Dancey Halloweeny

Alice

Posted by

Halloween is the best because it's a fall holiday without familial obligations and with costumes. That is, unless your family demands your participation in group costumes every year. (If so, I'm coming over!) To celebrate this sugary and spooky time of year, I put together a little playlist to thrill and delight your ghoulish ears! My goal was to create a mix that wouldn't induce prolonged eye rolling or cringing. It starts out creepy and ends dancey!

    Red Right Hand is one of my FAVORITE Nick Cave songs. However, I couldn’t dance to it if I tried.

    This makes me super happy. I’d also like to nominate Dead Man’s Bone’s “My Body’s a Zombie for You” for that moment when it’s 1:30 in the morning and you’re drunkenly dancing with that hot girl wearing a costume she maybe got the idea for from Autostraddle.

    I would like to suggest the addition of Ladykiller by White Sea. Scary melodies + sexy noises = yes.

    Listening to this as I’m putting the finishing touches on my rad Halloween costume. I wish it was Halloween all year round (or that it was socially acceptable to dress in costume all year)

    No familial obligation? I beg to differ. However, costumes, YESSSS! I absolutely adore this playlist, though. Nice job!
