1. Monster Mash
If there is one song for your Halloween Playlist this year, it is Monster Mash. This was my favorite song when I was little because it was the definitive signal that Halloween was right around the corner. I remember dancing to this song when we celebrated in all my classes growing up. You can’t celebrate Halloween without listening to the Monster Mash.
2. I Put a Spell on You

The only thing better than the original version of “I Put A Spell On You” is the Bette Midler version from Hocus Pocus. Not only am I obsessed with this movie, but I am obsessed with this song. Bette Midler is absolutely perfect as the role of Winfred Sanderson, and she perfectly executes this song as an evil witch. But no matter what version you like best, this song is perfect for your Halloween playlist.
