Thread: Non-Scary Halloween Music for Kids

Tweet

There is a plethora of scary horrifying haunted Halloween music and sounds that are great for adults but scare the crap out of kids.

So what about some good Halloween music for kids that doesn't send them crying cause they get too scared?

I know of an artist and album that has great Halloween music for kids. The artist is 'Nooshi' and the album is called 'Halloween Sounds to Christmas Melodies'. The album is like a mild version of 'Nightmare Before Christmas' and it's famous 'This is Halloween'.

It's worth checking out especially if you have kids, nieces, and nephews, which most of us do.

You can't go wrong with Kaye Land and Wade Denning: http://scarstuff.blogspot.com/search?q=denning

Try this - Ravens Blight, he has free downloads of several pretty cool albums that have a pretty snappy tones & should be kid friendly.....I find myself playing these during the day as "Halloween cruzing tunes" as I call them.

Think I may have some kid friendly ones in my collection, I'll see what I have & post them for you.

This is my personal hang-up, just me, no one else.

I despise Christmas carols being 'halloweened'. Halloween doesn't need the tunes of another holiday to get by, it can manage just fine without bad mockeries.

The worst offender? Any version of "The 12 days of Christmas" being turned into 12 days of Halloween.
Eeesh.
Christmas has 12 days, December 25th to January 6th, called Twelfth Night.
Halloween is one night, (of for most of us here, an entire multi-month season) not 12 days.

Gad.

I know, I know, I'm a party-pooping old stick-in-the-mud.
Like I said, my problem.

As for kids Halloween music, Dave Rudolf may be the absolute champion, and he is a serious award winner with his music.
I recommend this.

For the record, Spats, it's not just you.

Buck Howdy won a Grammy Award in 2010 for his album "Aaaaah! Spooky, Scary Stories & Songs". It is a must listen.

Andrew Gold's "Halloween Howls" is also good. http://www.amazon.com/Halloween-Howl...8026988&sr=8-3

And I like Creepy Clyde, although not all the songs are young kid appropriate ("Hex on the Ex") so you have to weed through them a bit. "The Carp That Ate Detroit" is a lot of fun.

ˆAgree on the Halloween Howls disk! Fun stuff with just a little bit of spookyness.

Andrew Golds Halloween Howls, all the way, I love that album. I really wish he would make a new one.

Actually, Andrew Gold passed away earlier this year, so we'll have to enjoy the one we got. I remember when I heard it on the news - how strange it was that, after all he'd done, I recognized his name because of Halloween Howls.
