Any fun Halloween / Spooky house tracks?

Doing a very laid back DJ set at a friend’s Halloween party tomorrow and looking for some fun / dancy spooky season tracks to toss in other than the typical like Monster Mash / Thriller / Ghostbusters etc

Main thing is that they’re upbeat / fun, not so much looking for super menacing techno or things like that.

Any recs appreciated!

“Essence of Life (Bag-UV Funk Mix)” gives me spooky alley vibes, veers more Boom Bap than House tho

[u/mixeddrinkmixtape](u/mixeddrinkmixtape) artfully combines cocktails and music! Here are some of his Halloween playlists (contemporary rock, vintage rock and garage respectively. There are also playlists featuring gothic country and witch house if that’s more your jam.

This was a Halloween party that I played: https://soundcloud.com/accomplice/proper-009

The full track list is here: https://accomplicated.ca/proper-009/

There are tonnes of fun tracks out there. I find that depending on the crowd, a little goes a long way. I tend to go pretty hard when given a theme.

Scream - ChaseWest, House Music Machine - Pedroz, Signs (Claude VonStroke Remix) - WRDO

Not necessarily Halloween specific tracks per se but there is something halloween-esc to them in my opinion hahaha

Edit: spelling

Halloween and particularly Halloween 2 theme tunes. Maybe Cerrone with Supernature Principles of Geometry - Golem Eat Remix has a spooky quality. Maybe Cassius - Sound Of Violence Cosmo Vitelli Remix too with it's slow otherness and gospel tinge. Space Golf by Tipsy is nicely odd wobbly wobbly stuff and finally the slow haunting beauty of Moan by Trentmoller.

Is this going to be one of those pointed posts where you get lots of qualitative responses and never reply?
