I think I picked up a CD years ago called either "Monster Mash" or "New Wave Halloween" and it pretty much set me up for Halloween.

Good luck getting adults to dance to this list, let alone kids.

Monster Mash, and maybe ghostusters, but thats about it.



For me, besides a few standards like Thriller, Monster Mash, and Time Warp, I don't get too deep into the halloween theme at halloween parties, music-wise. It's more important to play good dance music FOR THAT CROWD that go too heavily towards the theme.

For kids, same thing.

Well put Scott. Papa, maybe add the Adams Family theme song.

The Whodini might go over if your crowd is atleast 45.

Well known, danceable Halloween songs are hard to come by.
