    You Make Me Feel Like It’s Halloween – Muse

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyu1WO0hRB0

    I’m quite embarrassed that I didn’t know this song existed. I do like Muse a lot and all! This is fantastic. Move over Jacko, there’s a new big dog in town in terms of Halloween songs – and it doesn’t need a 13 minute video to make it’s point either! Great minds think alike and Molly and Aris have sent me a gem here!

    Deja Boo

    The Witches Are Back – Hocus Pocus 2 Cast

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17FwtAA-Ap8

    Now let me caveat this by admitting I haven’t watched Hocus Pocus 2 so maybe if I did watch the movie this song might place higher… I’m afraid because I have fond memories of the first movie and Hollywood is determined to torch every single movie franchise that ever existed recently. It was fine, nice and short but nothing to get too excited about.

    Don’t Fear The Reaper – Blue Oyster Cult

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dy4HA3vUv2c

    A stone cold classic! Funnily enough I got introduced to this track at the beginning of Stephen King’s The Stand (the original with Molly Ringwald and Rob Lowe, not the new one with Whoopi!) and have loved it ever since really. Solid entry.

    Season of the Witch – Donovan

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q54HMKWxwpk

    Oooh no I didn’t like this one. The verses are so low and then he starts roaring about seasons of the witch and I’m like… calm down you lunatic! Not for me at all at all… soz!

    Never heard this before. I don't know much of Muse's music, even though I like their sound, I just never get round to listening to them.

    Really liked that song and the video too.

    👍👍

    In 2nd place with 20 points (but also… not winning the category)

    Electric Nitwit

    The Turning of Our Bones – Arab Strap

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f4CN6sxDvr0

    Now… this absolutely will not be for everyone ( @Deja Boo I'm thinking of you 😂 ) but I bloody love this track. Had never heard it before and I’ve had it on repeat for a couple of weeks now… I may have bigger issues than Walrus. Perfect for the round, almost deserving of top spot… but not quite.

    Tubular Bells Part 1 – Mike Oldfield

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bnb-v9fmmCA

    25 minutes… dear God you masochist! I dunno I just don’t feel the grá for this… I fell asleep midway through it a few times. If you’re going to send in a long piece of music this is… not the best choice. I guess it’s a fine lullaby. As a Halloween song? Nah. I know, I know it's partly the theme to The Exorcist but it just does nothing for me at all…

    Which means that for the second time in the contest…

    The winner of this category, with 21 points…

    SineadSpears

    Werewolf – Motionless in White

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzojuv9zMGA

    Heh, it absolutely had to be didn’t it! Song name aside this is absolutely brilliant. Never heard of these guys before but I’ll absolutely be researching them a bit more now as this track is just right up my street. Congrats Sinead!

    Just back in from playing footie (I am fecking freezing) and seeing this. Delighted you like it, I absolutely love it too. The entire album (As Days Get Dark) is amazing, well worth checking out.

    But of course there can only be one… winner.

    He's formerly known as King of the Sheep but now he'll have to run some sort of sheep/walrus hybrid farm…

    With 62 points, the one, the only… (Just don't tell Shane.C)

    Yay, I was hoping the title would sway you a bit but chuffed that it actually won.

    I listen to it so much. It's so much fun ☺️

    (Also, @Trigger set a new rule that the winner has to run the next Walrus, don't blame me, blame Trigger).
