It’s been a great year for Sam Haynes despite lockdown. Sam and Gary have been featured on BBC Radio and have provided the soundtracks to several horror films.
Here is an early review for the album from legendary DJ Stevo in yr stereo: “Sam Haynes has topped himself with a phenomenal album. So many great tracks it’s difficult to choose a favorite. Contagion, is very topical and a standout, as well as VHS, and Darkness At Your Door. However, my very favorite is Rising Of The Lights which should be the huge hit of the album!”
You can now listen and playlist the complete collection of Horror Synthwave and Dark Electro music on Spotify too, follow us! https://open.spotify.com/artist/0u9k9HOOqbtaX980kkmgm1
Hope you enjoy the new music Happy Halloween!

December 2019 marks the 10th year of the Cult of the Great Pumpkin’s existence (10 years! WHAT?), during which time it’s pretty much just been me (Chad Savage) doing All The Things. As The Cult starts its second decade, however, that’s about to change!
I am VERY pleased to announce that The Cult is adding 3 regular contributors who are as Halloween-obsessed as I am, and feel very fortunate to welcome them aboard (and can’t thank them enough for doing so!). They are Hazel the Halloween Homemaker, Edyn Rashae and Jessi Hardesty; you can find out more about them on the new Contributors Page at https://www.pumpkincult.com/contributors/, and if you aren’t already following them on social media, if you love Halloween, you should be!
Here’s looking forward to a spectacularly spooky 2020! If you haven’t already, be sure to give the BRAND NEW Cult of the Great Pumpkin Instagram account a follow at https://www.instagram.com/GreatPumpkinCult – all 4 of us will be posting Halloweenishness to it!
