| Editorial Reviews:
Leave it to Rhino Records to come up with the best party music for Halloween rave-ups. In contrast to New Wave Halloween, this set of 10 tunes is aimed squarely at the family listening environment. "Monster Mash," sung by Bobby Pickett and the Crypt-Kickers, is a hoot decades after its origin. And Screamin' Jay Hawkins's "I Put a Spell on You" is aptly eerie, if not a tad funny in this setting--considering that "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" comes after and the Addams Family theme comes before. And lest you think this set of tunes is mired in the depths of Halloween tunes from generations ago, it also has "Ghostbusters"--which reeks of datedness anywhere but here. --Andrew Bartlett

 I put a spell on you is not Screamin Jay Hawkins December 4, 2009

Something went wrong with the credits for this song on this CD I believe. That is not Screamin Jay Hawkins doing "I put a spell on you." Someone with a better ear than I needs to listen to it, but I think that is actually Howlin Wolf (the great Blues Singer from the Chess Records days), who I believe wrote the song in the first place.
So just in case someone is looking for the Screamin Jay Hawkins version of this song ... this is not it. Makes me wonder if the artist who is doing it, got his royalties. :)

This CD is awsome with the ORIGIONAL Bobby Pritchett Monster Mash song on it. Also, there are many other great songs. I used this CD so much at my halloween party that I could not even find the case for a long while because people were passing it around reading it.

I ordered the CD for our Halloween Party at our Senior Club, the songs were a bit of nostalgia for some of our members! A fun CD for Halloween Parties!
 Nostalgic novelties January 3, 2009

Rhino offers a nice collection of nostalgic Halloween novelty songs by the original artists. During Halloween, I play this CD as kids arrive at the door to trick 'r treat.
Good, not Great, Halloween CD October 14, 2008

This is a good Halloween CD. My favorites are "Monster Mash", "Haunted House", "Ghostbusters", "The Purple People Eater", and "The Adams Family". Four of the remaining songs are somewhat tolerable. They are "The Blob", "I Put a Spell on You", "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes", and "Martian Hop". "Twilight Zone" is out of place and probably shouldn't have been put on this CD. It's pretty strange and impossible to dance to. Overall, I'm satisfied with it, but not blown away.
