1. Bettlejuice
2. Crypt Keeper Theme
3. Halloween theme, (of course - a classic).

* "Wacko Zacko" Crockett

And I just pray the sprinklers wont turn on.

How about these:

". . . he would have passed a pleasant life of it, in despite of the Devil and all his works, if his path had not been crossed by a being that causes more perplexity to mortal man than ghosts, goblins, and the whole race of witches put together, and that was--a woman." Washington Irving, The Legend of Sleepy Hollow

Melissa, definitely get that Ray Stevens song. It's really catchy and one of my favorites!
