It’s Time [playlist]

Tomorrow is the first of October, and we all know that October is about one thing: HALLOWEEN.

I hate being scared. I mean, I really loathe being scared. But I like Halloween. Maybe I even love Halloween. And I don’t mind things being a little bit ~~spoopy~~ spooky and eerie around this time of year, maybe because I can tell myself that the shivers I get are from the drop in temperature instead.

This playlist was being passed around Tumblr last week, about a week too early for a playlist called “It’s Time”. But now, at last. it is, indeed, time.

I like this playlist, but I feel like it’s probably missing a few songs and will likely put together a playlist of my own as we get closer to Halloween. (Oh joy, more promises of playlists from Starr :P)

What are some key Halloween songs that you associate with this spoopy time of year?
