Wicked and Weird: a mix
Hey, who wants to hear a really late Halloween mix? Okay, I know I should have posted this a couple days ago, but my Internet wasn't co-operating, and I didn't want to wait another year. Besides, today is All Souls Day, as well as the Day of the Dead, so I think it's still relevant. Hopefully this mix is still versatile enough to listen to the rest of the year, so I decided to go ahead and post it anyway. Enjoy. :)

01. Bela Lugosi's Dead - Nouvelle Vague | ♪
The bats have left the bell tower
The victims have bled
02. Witch - The Bird And The Bee | ♪
Yes, I am a witch
and I have conjured you for my bidding
03. Every Day is Halloween - The Postmarks | ♪
To me, every day is halloween
I like to play in the dark
and stay out of the light
04. Dead Things - Emiliana Torrini | ♪
Bad things
Dead things
Sad things have to happen
Sometimes
05. Cemetary Party - Air | ♪
(instrumental)
06. Howl - Bat For Lashes | ♪
Werewolf, howl!
Run! Scream! Shriek! Ooooo!
07. The Boogie Monster - Gnarls Barkley | ♪
I've got a monster in my closet
Someone's underneath my bed
The wind's knocking at my window
I'd kill it, but it's already dead
08. Scarecrow - Beck | ♪
Walking to the other side
With the devil trying to take my mind
And my soul's just a silhouette
on the ashes of a cigarette
09. They are night zombies! They are neighbours! They have come back from the dead! Ahhh! - Sufjan Stevens | ♪
We are awakened with the axe
Night of the living dead at last
They have begun to shake the dirt
Wiping their shoulders from the earth
10. Monster Hospital - Metric | ♪
Monster hospital, can you please release me?
11. Attack of the Ghost Riders - The Raveonettes | ♪
Thunder in the sky
The shades are drawn
Don't ask me why
But with the ghost riders on the go, I think you know
12. Weighty Ghost - Wintersleep | ♪
I don't need no surgery
Take those knives away from me
I just wanna die in my own body
A ghost just needs a home
13. Wolf Like Me - TV on the Radio |♪
Got a curse we cannot lift
Shines when the sunshine shifts
There's a curse comes with a kiss
The bite that binds
The gift that gives
We're howling forever

I have to thank the fine people of sexy_mood_music for providing a couple of these selections, particularly The Postmarks. I've just discovered them thanks to this community, and they are awesome. I'll be making a future post about them, but until then, check that comm out if you like fun music posts and graphics. This ends the public service announcement portion of this post. :)
