Probably a few dozen more, I usually pick up a couple of those "Halloween Party Mix" CDs every year if they've got stuff I've never heard before on.

I've just added:
Disturbia (Rihanna)
I put a Spell on you (Herschey Barr Band)
Monster (Lady GaGa)
Dead Man's Party (Oingo Boingo)
Dance in the Dark (Lady GaGa)
Scream (Michael Jackson)
I want Candy (Bow Wow Wow)
Abracadabra (Steve Miller Band)
Anxiety (get nervous) (Pat Benatar)
love potion number 9 (Sha Na Na)
devil inside (Inxs)
maneater (Hall and Oats)
im so afraid (fleetwood mac)
she wolf (Shakira)
holiday (Madonna)
jump (Van Halen)
lullaby (The Cure)
ghost riders in the sky (Johnny Cash)

70's & 80's new wave mostly in my house. Anything by The Cramps, Misfits, Siouxsie & The Banshees, Bauhaus, early Cure as well as selected sci-fi campiness by B-52s, Suburban Lawns, Oingo Boingo & Devo. So much great music from that era works perfectly into the Halloween genre...

Figtreejohn- I've got those on my list too! Good stuff!

I'll post my whole soundtrack listing once complete; I've been downloading, sequencing, trying to develop a cogent multi-hour soundtrack.

And then by total happenstance, I was driving the other day and listening to XM radio (aside: does anyone else have satellite radio ADD? I can't stop surfing like a maniac...) and was listening to Little Steven's Underground Garage. A song by the Chesterfield Kings came on and I took mental note to download it. When I was doing that in the evening, I saw an album that one of their songs is on.

Interesting mix, not thematically dark per se, but nice to throw some of these into my mix. Thought I'd share if anyone else were interested.

Don't forget Jonathan Coulton! I have:
