1. "Bad Moon Rising" by Creedence Clearwater

If you're looking for something a little spookier, check out Morning Rituals cover of "Bad Moon Rising." This cover was even featured on MTV's Teen Wolf and AMC's The Walking Dead. Perfect for an apocalypse story.

2. "Thriller" by Michael Jackson

This 80's hit sets the mood for Halloween perfectly. Plus it's Michael Jackson, need I say more? Enjoy this classic music video.


3. "I Put a Spell On You" by Jeff Beck feat. Joss Stone

Originally written by Jay Hawkins, I'm loving this Jeff Beck and Joss Stone version. Perhaps most will recognize it from Disney's movie Hocus Pocus, performed by Bette Midler.

4. "This Is Halloween" from The Nightmare Before Christmas

Featured in the movie The Nightmare Before Christmas, Panic! At The Disco also created their own rendition of this spooky song.

This Stones song has been a hit since 1968, and it's all about a timeline of history from the devils point of view. Check it out!

This story is told by a crazy scientists and it's sure to get you into the Halloween spirit.


7. "Rhiannon," by Fleetwood Mac

Written by Fleetwood Mac in the 1970's about a story of a Welsh witch. This whimsical, haunting song is a classic Stevie Nicks song. Stevie Nicks has been rumored to be a witch herself, because of her unique style and ideas, but of course she denied all those accusations. In 2013 Nicks was featured in American Horror Story: Coven, as a witch as a play on the rumors.


8. "Superstition," by Stevie Wonder

Such a great classic, Stevie Wonder is amazing.


9. "Haunted," by Beyonce

Here's Beyonce's live performance of "Haunted."

10. "Witchy Woman," by The Eagles

This song was written by Don Henley and Bernie Leadon. It's rumored that Henley used Zelda Fitzgerald as his muse.


11. "Devil Town," by Bright Eyes

Featured in hit how Friday Night Lights.


12. "Hells Bells," by ACDC

This song opens up with a haunting bell, and is still a very well known ACDC hit.

But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
