Songs don't really scare me but this one always did give me the creeps. Maybe it's the Michael Jackson werewolf transformation? Or, the choreographed Zombies bursting from graves which then dance along with other monsters?
Or, maybe it's Michael's red leather jacket? Yikes... Werewolves, Zombies and space aliens... Oh my!Then there is Vincent Price's very distinct deep scary voice narrating..... Now that was Halloween creepy...
Darkness falls across the landThe midnite hour is close at handCreatures crawl in search of bloodTo terrorize y'alls neighbourhoodAnd whosoever shall be foundWithout the soul for getting downMust stand and face the hounds of hellAnd rot inside a corpses shellThe foulest stench is in the airThe funk of forty thousand yearsAnd grizzy ghouls from every tombAre closing in to seal your doomAnd though you fight to stay aliveYour body starts to shiverFor no mere mortal can resistThe evil of the thriller

Of course! this MJ song! It's the perfect Halloween song.
Hi Lea!
I had this on my blog until it was disabled, my favorite weird MJ song. Love Vincent Price's rendition of the Poe's poem and the evil laugh that accompanied it. BWHAhahahahaha! Too much fun!
Have you Jethro Tull's The Passion Play....freaking weird....but then again, the creepiness of Halloween.....very Alice in Wonderland like.

LOL Yeah, while I have to admit the costuming and the dancing in this video is well done, Price's rendition of the poem is what really makes it spooky I think.
He had such a distinctive voice and was able to add inflections that made it so "Halloween", perfect.. lol
Eeeeeeek!!!!
My oldest daughter has been watching this vid on You Tube almost constantly since MJ died. Once they figured out he had cool music my kids have been very into it.
Great one Lea! "Thriller" is a Halloween classic of creepiness.
:o)
