Lol and all my life for some reason I thought I was the only one that knew about this from when I was little because it was so old. Glad to see other fans! I still have my original CD lol for some reason, out of all the CD's from my childhood, this one made it out alive haha. Thanks WickedBuddi for uploading this!
I felt so sad thinking I would never hear this again, since I used to hear this via cassette, no longer have something to play a cassette tape, and can no longer find the cassette tape itself. This was one of my favorite ways to prep for Halloween as a child. My mother would also play it on our porch while kids came for trick or treating! ^-^
I had to leave a comment, I had this on cassette and now cd, but to find this and so many classics on UA-cam is a blessing, thank you for sharing this. Halloween in my isn't just a day it almost a two month love affair.
I use to own this Cassette back in 1999 LOL!! I LOVED it so much, listened to it every weekend and at night before bed. Thank you so much for uploading it!!
This is THE BEST Halloween cassette tape of all. I used to listen to it at all times of the year when I was a kid. I used to be afraid of it and would only listen during the day. Eventually we would use cassette tapes less and less so this tape likely got mixed in with the others and thrown out or given away. This brings back a lot of memories. Thank you!
Wow. Just wow. My Mother had bought this tape a LONG time ago...when I was younger and EVERY Halloween she would bust it out! It became a tradition. We moved and moved then it got misplaced or lost! :-( I'm throwing My FIRST Halloween party and I'm SO happy I was able to find this...Now I can play it along with the other Halloween hits I have throught the night of My party! Thank you much ❤
I know this is an old post but I just have to say thank you. Just like most others, I owned, I lost and never thought I would never find it again because I couldn't remember what it was called. Thanks to you I found it online this year.
I had this cassette tapes years ago and loved it so much I outplayed it and it got warped lol. Thanks for uploading this. So many memories coming back. :)
Holy shit i listened to this alone as a little kid all the time. Had a different cover though. This guy turns into dracula and chinese water tortures us!
I wonder who the narrator is. I had this on cassette back in the 90s. I miss it so much. I used sound effects from side B in a bunch of my projects. So much fun.
When I was a lad, I listen to this tape cassette around the month of October. Halloween 🎃 is one of my favorite holidays. My favorite poet/author is Edgar Allen Poe.
I can't remember if I bought this CD at Walmart or Lowe's years ago. Still have the CD now. I'm glad it wasn't just me that found this gem and enjoyed it!
I have this CD and have had it for years now. Bought it in the later 90's. A fave to listen to. Along with a few other CDs. Anyone know of any others like this? I have never come across another like this album.
I have looked for this track every year for about 8 years, ever since my dad downloaded it from limewire and put it on a CD and it had no name AND stopped right before you got to the graveyard!! Its driven me crazy for 8 whole years!!! What happens???? What is this darn things name??? Every year I listen to the CD and I spend time to find it online and today I found it! Now I finally know what happens! Bless you!
@trumbachd1 I had it on cassette tape too years ago, and it suddenly vanished and I never found it. I had vague memories of what was on the tape and by luck I was able to find it's title again. Thank you WickedBuddhi for uploading this.
Spooky Tales and Scary Sounds Haunted Graveyard There’s a terrible storm, and all the lights have gone out. You awaken - not to thunder, but to the incessant beat of a heart under your bed. Do you dare look under the mattress, or with trembling fingers - pull the covers high over your head? When an otherworldly chill is in the air, and the wind calls your name. When the hounds bark as if possessed. Do you raise your collar and quicken your pace, or laugh at your fanciful imagination. Could you spend the night, alone, in a house by the sea? A house where the walls cry and the spirits are restless. But you don’t believe such nonsense, do you? Not in ghosts, or ghouls, or vampires. Not in raising the dead, or tales of terror, or the black arts, now do you? So come, come with me past this wrought-iron fence. Some call this place the Valley of Unrest, but it’s just an old graveyard. A place of everlasting sleep, isn’t it? There’s nothing here but crumbling headstones overrun by grass and weeds. Large tombs, foreboding, long forgotten. Decaying trees with claw-like branches that dip into the surrounding mist. Hold that lamp high. The night is starless, and the moon rides on dark, ominous clouds. Huh! What was that? Oh, don’t look back. Don’t - don’t even dare. Better not to know what might be there. Just walk, toward the hill up ahead. On the other side is a town - of the living. Of warm hearths and cheer. They say this cemetery is a shortcut, though the locals never walk it. At least, not after dark. They talk of ghosts and spirits and screaming banshees, of disembodied souls lost in a nether-world between life and the hear-after. Of premature burials, where victims cry out with their final breath. Of the uninvited who stalk these grounds, though if, truth be told, it is we who are truly the uninvited. Good thing we weren’t standing under that tree. Dead Man’s Hill. Somehow we’ve become lost in the swirling mist and lashing rain. Surrounded in every direction by pillars and headstones and tombs. Can you hear the beating of your heart? Feel the hair on your neck stand? What horrible fate befell those who tread this path before us? The storm grows worse. Better take shelter in that old mausoleum. The Mausoleum Don’t let that door close behind you! Don’t panic - there must be another way out of this dark, dank, musty house of the dead. Huh? That’s not Jack Frost nipping at your toes. There’s hundreds of enormous rats, scurrying all around, growing bolder by the moment. Fierce red eyes and ravenous sharp fangs, lured by the scent of fresh meat - you! Quick - there’s a hint of light coming from the far corner. Drop the lamp on this rotted wood to keep the rats at bay, and run. Run for your life! The Witches' Cauldron Hmmm. There’s a small passage, once secret at the base of the wall. We’re descending into the legendary catacombs of Salem. We walk by candlelight under a river’s bed. Drops of moisture trickle along the walls embedded with bones and skeletal remains. It’s said that when the witches of Salem escaped their persecutors, they found refuge in these dark walls. Here they freely practiced their demonic rites. There’s a foulness in the air. Pungent smoke, ominous echoes. It’s the witching hour, and this is the witches’ cauldron. A place you wouldn’t want to be caught dead, and especially not alive. The Vampire's Castle Welcome to Graystone Mansion. No one ever comes to this house on the hill anymore. At least, not mortal souls. It is a gloomy place, in terrible disrepair. What once were magnificent windows are boarded shut. Or stare out like vacant eyes. What once was a garden is overrun by weeds and scattered white trunks of decayed trees. Better reign the horses tight and shackle the dogs, for they have a certain sense of entrapping terror. Cobwebs hang from the walls and furniture. There’s an ominous power of darkness in such a desolate house. But, you don’t believe in ghosts, now do you? How curious - the fireplace burns in the dining room, and the table has been set. What’s this? A wooden coffin! Dracula - “Come to me, blood of my blood, flesh of my flesh. Come to me. Come, come. (Come, come.....). Good evening. I’ve been expecting you.” He casts no shadow; shows no blood in his face. His hands are hairy, his teeth sharp, his eyes, daggers of fire. Dracula - “You seem restless, my friend.” Doors everywhere, all bolted. Dracula - “I am the darkness and the night. A shadow in your dreams. Do you hear them? The creatures of the night. My children of darkness. They sing a requiem for the dead - and undead. I shall return. Until then, eat - please. I trust you like salad with a balsamic vinegar. I find a steak (stake) so, so bad for the heart. Tonight I take a bride. Blood of my blood, flesh of my flesh. Come with me into the darkness, and you shall know eternal life!”
Anyone know when this was originally made? It sounds really old and uses a lot of old public domain sounds. Never heard this till now, but it's a lot of fun.
omg i can't believe i finally found this! i used to listen to this on my walkman (lol) in the dark all the time! i'm so happy haha
Lol and all my life for some reason I thought I was the only one that knew about this from when I was little because it was so old. Glad to see other fans! I still have my original CD lol for some reason, out of all the CD's from my childhood, this one made it out alive haha. Thanks WickedBuddi for uploading this!

Rhythm And Boo's was a popular one found in the Halloween cereals. I actually just found this in a goodwill and like it too.
Juan Robles "A Night in a Haunted House/ A Night in a Graveyard" is very similar, almost identical actually.
Christopher Lee's Fireside Tales!!! it's fantastic. find it right here on YT. also anything by Vincent Price. lol 👻🎃🍁
