Soundtrack Spotlight is an undead CFD! feature looking to devour all things VGM. Every full moon we shamble towards the best in droning tones, grave rob and reanimate new releases and forgotten cuts, and bring you the scariest in afterlife auditory awesomennnnnnnnnnnnnnnnaaaaaaarrrrrrrgggggghhhh.
If you haven’t realized from the superfluous amount of candy and costumes accumulating ‘round your neighborhood, today is Halloween.
Don’t worry, we remembered for you, and that’s why we’ve devoted this past week of content to the most devious and cavity-inducing of pagan festivities.
Today, we’re wrapping up the fun with a Soundtrack Spotlight devoted to some of the best and most effectively disturbing music from games usually typified as “scary”. To achieve the full effect, I recommend you burn these songs to a CD and listen to it on repeat as you go about collecting your sweets. Or just use it to scare some five-year-old trick-or-treaters , it’s up to you.
