Oh yeah! And my avatar thanks you, too! To this day, the MMP musical soundtrack remains my most often played CD. The music throughout the film is this strange combo of jazz, Caribbean, burlesque, all mixed together and baked into a wonderful cake.

Those are cool, Flower. I have the Frankie Stein And His Ghouls records burned to CD and listen to them in the car (which non-monster people find very strange). I love the Monster Surf/Dance stuff from the '50s & '60s.  8)

I also like Frankie Stein and His Ghouls- I have all five of their records on vinyl.

These are ALL fantastic records.  I have an assortment of vinyl Halloween records (and some on CD and tape!).  Have always enjoyed the PURE AUDIO side of monsters and spooks!  There is nothing like it.

There's a lot of cool spooky old time radio recordings out there too.
Beautiful moving, shifting colors!

Let's not forget this classic. I had this as a kid, but lost it somewhere along the way. Ron Howard lends his voice. You can listen to the album here:

The Story and Song from The Haunted Mansion - Part 1

I also had this one as well. You can listen to part of the album here:

William Castle's Ghost Story Track 1 The Deadly Dog

Ghost



I still have my Famous Monsters Speak. I have several records with George Peed artwork on them like the Ghostly Sounds and Monster Mash. I have Bugs Bunny, Frosty the Snowman, Bozo's Christmas, and several other Christmas related ones. Here are some more monster related ones by George:



I also have these ones by Power Records:





I recently found my other Ghostly Sounds record from my childhood while at my mom's house but still can't find my Night in the Haunted Mansion.



But my favorite Halloween record by far was my Famous Ghost Stories record with stories by Charles Dickens, Edgar Allen Poe, and Washington Irving.

Can I just say this thread is amazing! Really enjoying some of these recordings, most of which are new to me. I don't have much to contribute, but here's a silly, pun-filled interview that appears on the back cover of the Zacherle's Monster Mash LP, which, other than the Wolf Man "I Love You" 45" (one of my fav items in the monster collection, that art is just insane) and a lone Frankie and the Ghouls LP (those goofy things are expensive!!!) is my only true monster record (unless you count hardcore punk and death-rock records with horror themed cover art :D).
