Halloween & Haunted House Music for Your Haunt (Bonus Interview with Ghoul Show)

 
Ghoul ShowIn Episode 47 of HaunTopic Radio we mix a compilation of Halloween, Haunt, & Horror music from 10 different horror musicians and bands to add atmosphere to your Haunt. We also get Kyle Lester from Ghoul Show to describe his genre of horror music and we’ll play two of his songs along the way. You gotta listen to this!

Then we dive into a mix of other artists who bring the darkness through your ears and into the stem of your brain. We throw in a few individual tracks, some medleys of complete CDs, and even a couple of movie theme songs that you might recognize. Support these dark musicians by buying their songs on iTunes, Amazon, Sound Cloud, or your favorite place to buy music. This helps by keeping them around a little bit longer.

Our online seminar Scare Acting 101 with Allen Hopps from Stiltbeast Studios is on June 19th. Join us in this LIVE Webinar with video, audio, chat box, and real feedback from Allen Hopps. He will give acting tips, share his experience as a Scare Acting coach, and teach his techniques on managing and organizing actors. This online seminar is $20 and you can register here:
