Flyby's Throwback Halloween Playlist

•

Happy Halloween! To celebrate the holiday, here are some throwbacks to remind us of the days back when we made maps with our friends rating which houses had the best candy:

“Monster Mash” by Bobby “Boris” Picket & The Crypt-Kickers
It’s hard to forget the catchy pop tunes of the Groovie Goolies and the iconic monster trio of Drac, Frankie, and Wolfie. Jamming to songs from the 60s is also obviously the best way to kick off your Halloween.

“Casper the Friendly Ghost Theme Song”
Everyone loves a cute ghost who was a hipster before it was even cool, refusing to conform to expectations that he must scare people. Plus, remember when he fights an evil wizard with young Hilary Duff in the movie Casper Meets Wendy?

“Ghostbusters” by Ray Parker, Jr.
This famous song teaches you who you’re “gonna call” in any remotely creepy situation. Listening to it will probably make you want to don a brown jumpsuit and a backpack vacuum.

“The Addams Family Theme Song”
We dare you to resist the temptation to snap while listening to this song. Also, it’s hard to forget the scary-looking but oddly endearing Uncle Fester who would not stop sticking lightbulbs in his mouth.

“I Want Candy” by Aaron Carter
You can't object to this dreamy childhood popstar and his extreme desire for Candy. We know that you want candy, too.

“Build Me Up Buttercup” by The Foundations
There’s no way to refuse a sing-a-long to this old school classic jam. You know you used to jam to this in the shower (and probably still do)... and there’s buttercup in the title, so obviously it’s appropriate for Halloween.

“Scooby Doo Theme Song”
Who wouldn’t want to spend their Halloween listening to this classic theme about one of the best talking dogs out there? Scooby Dooby Doo, where are you?
