But your needn't limit yourself to scaring trick-or-treaters. Scary Halloween sounds are a perfect addition to any house party or fund-raising event. If you've decided to create a full haunted house tour, you definitely need some good quality Halloween sound CD's to play in various rooms. That's part of what makes walking through a haunted "mansion" or graveyard so exciting!

Use your imagination to think of ways to really vamp things up, such as pairing frightening sound effects with scary Halloween classical music. Or, if you have some technical electronics experience, perhaps you could rig the sound CD to a motion detector. Imagine walking along and suddenly a low, long groan emanates from the walls or a loud witch's cackle sounds behind you! That would certainly make people jump out of their skin!

Below, you will find several recommended CD's that are sure to add to the forbidding and chilling ambience that you wish to create this year. These are available through Amazon and you can listen to the song list samples available for each CD selection before making a decision on what best suits your needs. Happy Haunting!

Ghost & Ghoul Sounds

Ghost & Ghoul Sounds
This is a great compilation of scary sounds to use on Halloween. They can get really creepy, although some of the sounds included on here would not be what we would normally consider "Halloween sounds," such as machine gun fire and phones ringing. However it's still a good sound track to use, especially as there are no pauses between tracks to break the atmosphere.

What's On It?

There are 78 Halloween sound effects included on this CD. Everything from screaming to mad laughter, squeaking doors, wolves snarling, fog horns, suspense music, and much more.
