One year ago, I went to the local cemetery during a full moon, dug a grave, and buried a jukebox in it. I would explain why I did this, but why creep you out with the gruesome details of my nocturnal October activities? So anyway, I returned to the cemetery last night, dug up that same jukebox, plugged it in, and discovered something truly horrifying...
It had become the Jack-O-Juke!
The Jack-O-Juke is a jukebox filled with over 180 horrifying Halloween songs to keep your decaying ears bleeding with ghoulish glee all season long. Feel free to keep the Jack-O-Juke open in a separate window so you can listen to all of the hand-picked tunes while still checking out all the latest article offerings here on I-Mockery.
I've received so many emails over the years from people asking me to set up a Halloween music jukebox on the site, I figured it was high time I oblige you guys before you decided to break into my home and eat my skull. With the help of some kind chums who donated their time, I gathered all kinds of killer Halloween songs, from the classics we all know and love to the completely obscure, and added them to this jukebox. I hope this new feature makes your Halloween season even more enjoyable than it already is... and I also hope it doesn't kill my server with all the bandwidth it's surely going to devour.
If you would like to help me out with the bandwidth costs, please consider purchasing our official 8-Bit Halloween print or anything else from our store. Every purchase helps cover my hefty hosting bills!
Have a song to suggest? If there's a Halloween tune that you feel is worthy of a permanent spot in the Jack-O-Juke, please post it here in this blog thread. This thread will be the permanent home for all spooky song suggestions, so feel free to return with all the ideas you can come up with. I can't promise I'll add anything you suggest, but I'll certainly keep an open mind about any haunted Halloween anthems you can come up with.
Alright, that's enough blabber. Start listening to the Halloween songs, please spread the word, and lemme know what you think!
Danny 4 Eyes on 10/10/2012 12:27 pm
Listening the the Beetlejuice theme as we speak, great work Rog.
WhiteRoseBrian on 10/10/2012 12:43 pm
Maybe the box listing the songs should be expanded so that it would be easier to navigate through tracks.
As far as suggestions, how about the remix of Tower of Dolls from Castlevania Chronicles?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FcizlIz3HsA
Here's another track from Castlevania you might consider.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCrg7dZWeys
Here's the music from Arkham Asylum when you encounter the Scarecrow.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaUKjplgpr4
How about this track from Super Mario 64?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gMrbQirsEhY
That's all I can think of for the moment. I may post again here later when I have more ideas.
Shannon (Guest) on 10/10/2012 1:56 pm
*AHEM* you are welcome ;)
GoodnightMoon (Guest) on 10/10/2012 2:23 pm
Any chance of getting Dwelling of Doom from Castlevania on there as well? I always associate that song with the Halloween Collection page from a few years back.
Kenji on 10/10/2012 2:31 pm
This is too awesome for words, great job Roger.
ColdFusion (Guest) on 10/10/2012 2:50 pm
I was a little embarrassed to suggest it, but I see WhiteRoseBrian is on the same page.. It doesn't get spookier than http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR01171/
the violins are even a little out of tune, giving it a 'black and white film' sound..
cqmorrell on 10/10/2012 3:19 pm
How about the theme from John Carpenter's The Thing?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=meU2gAU7Xss
Or possibly something from The Fly's soundtrack?
http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAA3EBDB0BE74A658
Kenji on 10/10/2012 3:23 pm
By the way:
The opening theme from Burton's "Corpse Bride" > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9jeQM63J3Ew
And also this, provided there's a full version somewhere > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNmN8LdTl2s
margo on 10/10/2012 3:28 pm
I would like to suggest Werewolves of London By Warren Zevon
Ducttapefury on 10/10/2012 3:35 pm
There's a lot of variety on there. I was going to suggest Crypt by Power Glove, but it's already there! Its like the jack-o-juke can read minds. If so, I'm thinking the original Dawn of the Dead theme would be a good addition. Also some songs by Deadbolt.
blood_panther on 10/10/2012 4:56 pm
A very nice selection! almost every halloween song I could think of is already on the list! that said I did manage to think of two more you might want to add.
jonathan coulton's Creepy Doll

choconado (Guest) on 10/10/2012 5:01 pm
I agree that the track box is way too small. Only being able to see three and a half tracks (out of almost sixty times that! ) is a bit inconvenient.
-RoG- on 10/10/2012 5:05 pm
Alrighty, I just updated it with a significantly larger viewable tracklist area, so you should now able to see six tracks at a time. That's about as much as I'm gonna enlarge it at the moment. You may need to clear your cache for it to appear properly.
Keep the song suggestions coming everybody... great stuff so far! Hope you're all enjoying the Jack-O-Juke cuz it was a LOT of work putting it together. Hope each of you have discovered at least a few new tunes you'll always want to listen to come Halloween season every year!
Chuck White (Guest) on 10/10/2012 6:06 pm

Mister Tea on 10/11/2012 11:35 pm
Hey now, if you're gonna do Oingo Boingo, then you can't forget about "Dead Man's Party," aka that song from the kickass dorm party in Back to School.
ReBirFh on 10/12/2012 8:32 am
Add the main theme from Phenomena by Goblin.

So many great suggestions... looks like I'm gonna have to buy some more Halloween music in the near future. I wanna get the Jack-O-Juke to over 200 songs, so I'll do my best to check all of them out and add the ones that I like most to the playlist. Thanks all, and keep those suggestions coming!
(By the way - be sure to check the full playlist before you make a suggestion, because your song idea may already be on it.)

Those two tunes just ARE horror, to me.
Liz Peters (Guest) on 10/13/2012 11:40 pm
Bessie Smith - Devil's Gonna Get You
saturnknight on 10/14/2012 8:14 am
anything off the Halloween Hootenanny cd will work
Ribcage Mambo
Rob Zombies : Halloween, she got so mean
ChrisV82 (Guest) on 10/14/2012 1:54 pm
This is a great idea and there are some good tracks. However, songs like "Ghost Town" by the Specials have absolutely nothing to do with Halloween ("This place is coming like a ghost town. No job to be found in this country."). It's the problem so many people have when doing a compilation like this; you can't take everything literally.
So, the next time someone says "Let's put Witch Hunt by Rush on our mix," tell them, NO!
JKent Nichols (Guest) on 10/15/2012 1:45 am
Didn't get to read all previous requests above, but I was thinkin about
The Raven-Glass Prism
ryot on 10/15/2012 12:23 pm

Yes, it's a parody, but it's my official Halloween song of 2012!

I've added some more songs to the Jack-O-Juke based on some of your suggestions. Still have a lot more of your suggestions to get to, but making progress. Keep posting those great ideas for spooky tunes to add to the playlist!

WhiteRoseBrian on 10/21/2012 10:34 pm
Here is one I thought of after I last posted in this thread.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zCAK3bwOGx0
What about another track from Nightmare Before Christmas?
WhiteRoseBrian on 10/21/2012 10:50 pm
Please pardon the double-posting, but I just thought of this too. There's a tone poem from Rachmaninov called Isle of the Dead. It is over twenty minutes long. That would be far too long your jukebox, wouldn't it?
James Eraserhead (Guest) on 10/23/2012 2:26 pm

Terri (Guest) on 10/23/2013 6:53 pm
How about the theme from the Saw movies?
Vincent (Guest) on 10/24/2013 3:12 pm
You should add this classic from Bob Marley and the Wailers. It is known as "Mr. Brown". The original version that came out in 1970 was rumored to be about a ghost. Even before you hear the words, the instrumental has noises that pretty much sounds like spooky howling. That's why on some later compilations the song has also been titled "Dracula" as well!
Just listen to the original, it is better than the 2008 Angry Kids remix.
kasper31383 on 10/27/2013 8:49 am
Maybe already mentioned but i always liked night on bald mountain & toccata and fugue.

Nelson (Guest) on 09/28/2014 12:20 pm
I've been collecting Halloween songs for over a decade because I love Halloween so much and those songs are much harder to find, unlike Christmas songs. So here's a list of some great Halloween songs that should be in your jukebox.
Ghost Bop - Spooklight
Grave Robber At Large - Creature Feature
Halloween (She Get So Mean) - Rob Zombie
I Put a Spell On You - Bette Midler
It's Almost Halloween - Panic! At The Disco
Land of the Dead - Voltaire
Night of The Vampire - Roky Erickson & The AIiens
No Costume, No Candy - Swingin' Neckbreakers
Spooks Night Out - The Legendary Invisible Men
Step Into My Coffin - Zombie Ghost Train
The Witch - The Rattles
Trick Or Treat - Nekromantix
Zombie Hop - Zombina & The Skeletones
I have more, but I'll stop now to prevent this comment from getting any longer than it already is.
Nelson (Guest) on 09/28/2014 12:25 pm
I also noticed a few errors and typos.
The "Werewolf" song you have is by Southern Culture On The Skids, not "Halloween Hootenanny".
"Halloween Hootenanny" is the name of the album the song comes in.
Also, it's "Zombina" and the Skeletones, not "Zombinia".
Severemile on 09/30/2014 1:46 am
Can you please put any of these in the Jack-o-juke?
1. Grisly Reminder-Midnight Syndicate
2. Bad Moon Rising-Creedence Clearwater Revival
3. Danse Macabre
4. Shaun Of The Dead Theme
5. Trick or Treat-Nekromantix
6. Ernest Scared Stupid theme

How about the Mona The Vampire and Ruby gloom themes? They're both pretty good.

Hey everyone, I'm a new parent and I'm trying to get my two month son to sleep through the night. At the moment I'm lucky to have four hours rest each night. Bless

One of the versions of The Doctor Who theme and the original torchwood theme uncut

How about the Zombie Hotel theme? That's pretty fun.

How about 'She's Fallen in Love with a Monster Man' by The Revillos?
MandieBea (Guest) on 09/01/2016 8:15 pm
The Stranger Things theme would make an excellent addition to the list.

I recommend Fatal's "Limb to Limb"

And definitely don't you have the remix of O'Fortuna by Apotheosis

My first suggestion for the Jack-O-Juke is a great Halloween tune that debuted this month! Are you ready for Freddy? Freddy "Boom Boom" Cannon that is, whose "The Svengoolie Stomp" is a tribute song to the horror host who humorously presents cheesy old B movies (like Elvira, Mystery Science Theater 3000, or Doc Mock), and it captures that cheesy-but-fun tone perfectly in audio form.
It was presented on Svengoolie's show with special guests (no, not the Elm Street Group) over Labor Day weekend:

This is how it sounds with just Freddy:

The Hives - Blood Red Moon
What's spookier than a moon of unnatural hue? Just a really solid track written for a Swedish movie about witches last year, but has a werewolf-y vibe as well.
Joel3K on 09/29/2016 11:08 pm
"All Hallow's Eve" and/or "The Most Horrible One" from the Meet Me In St. Louis soundtrack
The movie gets associated more with Christmas due to the song Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. And so the segment that takes place during Halloween is usually overlooked, but it's a spot-on mini-movie; the two instrumental tracks during that part are quite different from what modern ears associate with "Halloween music" but they work marvelously at creating an eerie, foreboding atmosphere.

The Werewolf by Paul Simon
Paul Simon wrote a song about a werewolf. In 2016. Rolling Stone calls it "howling good". Did I mention that it's about a werewolf?

The title track to Fester's Quest on the NES
The Addams Family theme song in 8-bit chiptune is already a winning combination. Add some cool syncopation and harmonies and you get my favorite version of the theme.
(Wrote that before I saw that you had said in the forum that the game "has some of the best game music ever. Ever. EVER.")

Judy Garland's version of The Purple People Eater
There's an elaborate intro verse that I've never heard in any other version of the song. Including a part where she reels off all sorts of crazy monsters, which sounds like the titles in the greatest horror marathon ever:
"The Thing, The Fly, The Mole People, The Gamma People, The Indestructible Fossil Man, The Amazing Colossal Man, The Body Snatchers, The High Incredible Brain Scratchers. I Was a Teenage Werewolf. I Was a 50 Foot Woman!"

The Monster Squad rap
Because they're the Monster Squad! Watching the movie, I was genuinely surprised to hear a cheesy rap song during the end credits. If it existed, why hadn't I heard it in the Jack-o-Juke?
deceptifan66 (Guest) on 10/20/2016 2:58 pm
For your Auditory pleasure, I present Lordi's Hard Rock Hallelujah https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CpRsOcpNmyM and Would you love a monsterman https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uUpuCBTrbKo
Sarah (Guest) on 10/23/2016 2:12 am
The Maniac Cop Rap. I know you put a Youtube link to it at the end of Greatest Horror Movie Moments piece you did for Maniac Cop 2, but it would still be cool to hear it on the Jack -O-Juke.

I Was a Teenage Zombie by The Fleshtones
Would fit right in with Zombina & the Skeletones!

Bumps Gonna Goose Ya! by MF Bumps ft. Jack Black
The Goosebumps movie with Jack Black was surprisingly good both cinematically and musically. Danny Elfman's spooky instrumental soundtrack is lots of fun, plus it inspired this Addams Groove-style cheesy rap song, complete with an equally cheesy music video!

Joel3K on 06/03/2017 10:42 am
While "Thriller" has been in the Juke since the beginning for obvious reasons, it'd be cool to add Elmer Bernstein's instrumental score from the music video... it's literally called the "Scary Music" in the end credits!

Mark Butler's Halloween haunts song from his Halloween-L music video at halloweenmonsterlist.info/2002Halloween-LMusicVideo.htm
Back in 2002, Mark cut a music video from a mailing list's footage of various Halloween projects, and wound up going with his temp music track in the final video. While he calls his mix of computer-generated drum-machine beats and Wiliam Shatner-style speak-singing "pathetic" and insists that he has "no music ability or talent at all", I find its handmade quality and raw enthusiasm for Halloween charming. It'd actually fit in just fine with the more polished songs in the Juke, as long as Mark isn't too embarrassed by it ;)

Little Richard's Casper The Friendly Ghost song from the 1995 Casper movie
More rockin' than a song about how a genial ghost is super-duper friendly has any right to be.

Wolfbane by Bobby "Boris" Pickett
Of all Mr. Monster Mash's novelty tunes, this is the one that feels the most different from his signature song... even if the werewolf-themed ditty merely blatantly copies from Alley Oop by The Hollywood Argyles rather than from The Monster Mash!
