Those of you who have followed this blog for a while might remember how much I love Halloween. It’s the most wonderful time of year if you ask me!

  1. Monster Mash is a classic! I hope you have a wonderful Halloween season😁

  2. These are great picks and I know at least half of them 🙂 Great topic choice for today.

  3. ohhhhh so many great songs!

    ” Werewolves of London” and “Bad Moon Rising” are personal favs.

  4. Bad Blood still comes up on my “shuffle” list of songs sometimes if I’m writing or taking a daily walk. Not a favorite of Taylor’s, but it is one of those “fun” songs to listen to here and there. 🙂 Thanks so much for visiting my list today.

  5. Great playlist picks! Love that TS is on there and I also have to admit that I’m a bit of a sucker for Dark Horse and Bad Habits 🤭

  6. I keep a list of favorite Halloween Songs on Spotify. Here is the link if you want to listen to some more: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3lzYX6fDwzrRJ5JrR5Uyxo?si=d2787af6b90b46a8

  7. Brilliant playlist! I like that some are super cheesy and some are a little more serious. I’d maybe add the Lana Del Ray version of Once Upon a Dream. It’s got a nice creepy feel to it.

  8. Great list! I love some of these songs, too. I love most of the music from Nightmare Before Christmas, too. It’s just so fun. (Nearly time for our annual viewing of the movie… yay!)

  9. There are some great song choices amongst these — Addams Family, Ghostbusters and Monster Mash yesssss! Here’s my Top Ten Tuesday post – https://justreadjessie.blog/2025/10/14/top-ten-tuesday-books-i-wish-i-could-read-again-for-the-first-time/

  10. I love your spin on the topic! Halloween is my favorite holiday, and I’ve heard all these songs.

  11. Such a great playlist! My sweet nephew, Casey, passed away when he was 18 years old, and he LOVED AC/DC. I always smile every time I hear one of their songs. Happy Tuesday!

  12. I have always loved The Addams Family Theme!

  13. I like Halloween, but don’t get into it quite as much as the real fans like you! I always think first of Thriller by Michael Jackson when I think of Halloween music.
