As received from
The Ghastly Ones:
Bobby "Boris" Pickett who gave us "The Monster Mash" back in 1962 died today at the age of 69. Monster Mash was the only Halloween song to ever hit #1 on the charts. In fact, it entered the top 100 at least three times. RIP Mr. Pickett and thanks for giving us the Mash. Mash.. goood.
