    Yes! Nail on head. Gotta love Glenn Danzig and his horror punk. (although 2 of the song there are off Famous Monsters, which wasn't Danzig, but still)

    Fantômas, Avant Garde Metal. I know you asked for no Metal, but be open minded for goodness sakes... Give it a listen.

    Pretty much anything by The Cramps is a good call.

    None of those have Danzig on them! Michale Graves is on all of them, though Jerry takes lead vocals in Monster Mash. I always preferred Misfits with Graves :)

    Maybe because Danzig's had a bit more of a conventional post-punk thing about it. I find Graves Mistfits are a bit more fun to listen to, like "Helena", that's a great song, bitof a dark comedy to it. "If I cut off your arms, and if I cut off your legs, would you still love me, anyway?"

    why no metal?!

    santana black magic woman
    cranberries zombie
    specials ghost town
    eagles witchy woman
    talking heads physco killer
    the who boris the spider
    no doubt spiderwebs or tragic kingdom
    blue oyster cult don't fear the reaper
    white stripes I think I smell a rat
    rolling stones sympathy for the devil
    warren zevon werewolves of london
    acdc hells bells or highway to hell
    garbage paranoid
    queen killer queen
    linkin park crawling
    prodigy firestarter or breath

    missing out on great songs though like ozzy bark at the moon
    definately commercial enough for halloween IMO

    You could go instrumental and use scores from horror films. John Carpenter films usually have good scores and then there's always Tubular Bells.

    Halloween theme

    This song would be more suited to a Pride Parade than Halloween. I'd go with the guy recommending the Misfits.

    First thing I thought of was the Halloween Movie theme tune... For extra emphasis, run around the place stabbing everybody with a slash-hook..

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nq6pekM6sZQ


    maybe you could use it at the start of the night or as continuity..

    Also topical (for True Blood fans) and apt song..

    This song is in all 3 of the Scream movies. It always creeped me out when I heard it.
