3am Mixtapes: Episode Ten: Spooky Songs

Hey look, it's another episode of 3am Revelations' very own podcast!

Each week on 3am Mixtapes, I will present to you, in my dulcet tones, the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general like Best Dancing Songs, or they can be as obscure and specific as Top Six Songs With A Kazoo Solo.

Since it's just about Hallowe'en, I figure what better way to celebrate than with the Top Six Spooky Songs! By which I don't mean Monster Mash on repeat, but songs that are about spooky & supernatural things. Or at least have titles implying such.

Featured on this week's podcast is:

"Wolf Like Me" by TV On The Radio
"Vampire" by Pink Mountaintops
"Colt Stands Up, Grows Horns" by Sunset Rubdown
"They Are Night Zombies!! They Are Neighbours!! They Have Come Back From The Dead!! Ahhhh!" by Sufjan Stevens
