It’s really Halloween all year long…isn’t it?

If you’re anything like me, you are always planning & thinking about the next October before the current October ends.

Well…after you grab your pen & paper to jot down these awesome tips from MadCity Haunt on How To Make Foam Weapons; we want you to RELAX to these creepy and eerie soundtracks from some great Halloween/Haunt/Horror Musicians (with a few surprises thrown in.)

No interview this episode. Just an awesome way to make that Sledge Hammer in the pics included in this article and a new way to make any foam weapon. Plus a bunch of twisted tunes to keep you motivated the rest of the month.

You like surprises right??

10 Creepy Halloween & Horror Soundtracks for Your Haunt (Bonus Interview with Ghoul Show)

Ghoul ShowIn Episode 47 of HaunTopic Radio we mix a compilation of Halloween, Haunt, & Horror music from 10 different horror musicians and bands to add atmosphere to your Haunt. We also get Kyle Lester from Ghoul Show to describe his genre of horror music and we’ll play two of his songs along the way. You gotta listen to this!

Then we dive into a mix of other artists who bring the darkness through your ears and into the stem of your brain. We throw in a few individual tracks, some medleys of complete CDs, and even a couple of movie theme songs that you might recognize. Support these dark musicians by buying their songs on iTunes, Amazon, Sound Cloud, or your favorite place to buy music. This helps by keeping them around a little bit longer.
