For fans of Halloween-themed music, the BLACK NUNS recently released their first album, which is dedicated to the spooky season. 13 songs about vampires, wolf-people, beasts, haunted pianos and frightful mothers-in-law!!

The BLACK NUNS are a duo from Manchester/Wales in the UK who have been working on writing and recording music over the last 2 years. The project was originally inspired by the band The MONKS and their 1966 album ‘Black Monk Time’,  but are also influenced by 60’s surf, psych and rock ‘n’ roll.  “It seemed fitting that for our first release we should do something to mark the Halloween season as it fits in so well with our aesthetic.”

Halloween Songs Vol.1 is available for free on Bandcamp [https://black-nuns.bandcamp.com/album/halloween-songs-vol-1-2] and most streaming services.

David Slade’s “Dark Harvest”, based on the Norm Partridge Novel, Now Streaming!

Many years ago I picked up a first edition copy of Norman Partridge’s soon-to-be-award-winning novel “Dark Harvest” (Cemetery Dance Publications, 2006) because (a) it looked like a fun/horrific story set on Halloween and (b) this particular edition used one of the first fonts I ever designed (Cenobyte). I read and absolutely loved the tragic tale of the October Boy…

Dark Harvest: The Book

…so imagine my surprise last night when I stumbled upon director David Slade’s (30 Days of Night, Hard Candy) new film based on the novel, now streaming on VOD!

While it’s been over 10 years since I read the novel, the movie felt pretty faithful to the source (I get why they changed “October Boy” to “Sawtooth Jack” – scarier!). The movie moves swiftly to tell its tale and is beautifully shot, the creature design is impressively horrific and some of the kill scenes were just jaw-dropping. I really enjoyed the film and can’t wait to add a hard copy to my collection, although no release date has been set that I could find.

Check it out wherever you watch your VOD and enjoy this wicked Halloween treat!

Not for the Arachnophobic! New Track from Carolin Seitz

After the mid-pandemic release of her first two singles, UK singer/pianist Carolin Seitz fell silent due to long COVID. She’s back just in time for Halloween ’23 with ‘The Web’, a captivating dark pop tune reminiscent of Danny Elfman’s haunting scores. Enjoy some creepy, crawly vibes with this comically dramatic exploration of cruelty and injustice among exoskeletal creatures! ‘The Web’ was arranged and produced in collaboration with Kostia Rapoport, a sought after German theatre composer. The film noir-inspired music video is Carolin’s first venture into videography.

One of the Great Pumpkin Cult’s favorite things every Autumn is the release of a new Halloween at High Noon album, and 2023’s “Repulsion Nocturne” is now available!

From H@HN: “Halloween at High Noon: Repulsion Nocturne is officially available at Bandcamp (https://halloweenathighnoon.bandcamp.com/album/halloween-at-high-noon-repulsion-nocturne). There is always a slight delay with the other platforms – something about them having to buffer to account for the number of streams…you know. 🎃 Soon tho. Thank you to all for your patience. Have a Happy Halloween and be well.”

Normally I would have already listened to it a couple of times and would post my thoughts, but I just purchased it and can’t wait to check it out!

“Age-Old Tradition” from Slasher Dave Out Now!

Check out the album at https://slasherdaveofficial.bandcamp.com/album/age-old-tradition

Slasher Dave says:

“Out now on Bandcamp and all streaming services! Age-Old Tradition is a different album than I’m used to doing. It’s almost a double-album, splattered with 18 gore-soaked tracks.

Don’t let the name and smiling pumpkin on the cover fool you, this album is pure horror worship, in its truest and most evil form. There are some Halloween jammers mixed in, but for the most part it’s harsh, raw, and very aggressive for its “horror synth” genre. I wanted it nasty sounding.

A lot of art and script is almost all Ai now, so I’m going to get extra human this year and tell you a fucking story…

When I was a child I collected Halloween cassettes, I still do… But one of them really affected my life in a way I cannot explain. It stuck with me all these years later. I don’t think this new album would even exist if it wasn’t for this tape. That tape was Gemstone Entertainments Fright Night. It has really crappy and childish art on the cover. But the music and sounds on it are the complete opposite. Within the first 3 SECONDS of the tape, you immediately get what they were going for. Terror. Right when I hit play for the first time I immediately felt like I was gonna die. I had a demented and dreadful smile on my face from ear to ear. It has to be influenced heavily by Carpenter soundtracks, parts actually sound a lot like Halloween 2’s score. Maybe that’s why I loved it so much? I put this tape on whenever my friends and I made a garage haunt. In my opinion, audio wise, this is the coolest and most magical Halloween tape to ever exist. I still go back and take influence from it, and this album has A LOT of it. It’s kind of my tribute to it, and of corpse John Carpenter, Jay Chattaway, Fabio Frizzi and Goblin soundtracks.

This is Halloween music for horror and splatter fans. It’s music for all the freaks that make elaborate displays of fright in their front yards every year. Stab yourself in the eye with a pumpkin carving knife music. Peel the skin off your bones and eat it music. Cut yourself weeks in advance to harvest scabs and pass em out to trick or treaters music.

Enjoy. Ya sick f#!ks. 🎃”
