Halloween is one of the biggest party-throwing holidays, but sometimes your event just isn't made without the right music. A haunted house needs "mood music" because no one is going to be scared if you're playing Closer by the Chainsmokers. A Halloween party needs a good combination of spooky and upbeat so that you can have a good time but still keep in the spirit. Whether you're looking for the right song to dance to, or one to enhance your scare, check out the list below for some of my favorite picks.

1. Dollhouse - Melanie Martinez

Melanie Martinez has a remarkably haunting voice despite it being very pretty. Plus, dolls, need I say more?

Listen here.

2. Disturbia - Rihanna

While it's creepy as all hell, you can definitely dance your heart out to this classic throwback.

Listen here, as if you've never heard this.

3. Control - Halsey

Who is in control? It'll definitely be you if you play this song at your next party, it's great for keeping the spooky vibes. Listen here.

4. Spooky Scary Skeletons - Disney

If you find the remix of the song from the classic Disney short, it's honestly a real good jam. It'll get your party going before you can say the name three times fast. Listen here.

5. This is Halloween - Panic! at the Disco

If Panic is not your choice of artist you have a wide variety of other bands that have covered the song. Regardless, this is a Halloween staple. Listen here.

6. Time Warp - Rocky Horror Picture Show

If you've been to a Halloween party where they didn't play this, you shouldn't have stayed. This is the equivalency of the Soulja Boy song at every middle school dance. Listen here.

7. In the Room Where You Sleep - Dead Man's Bones

First things first, Ryan Gosling is the frontman of this group so that should make you want to listen to it ten times over. I first heard this song in the movie the Conjuring and it was very fitting. Listen here.

8. Thriller - Michael Jackson

For the entire month of October it is always Thriller time. Listen here.

9. Carousel - Melanie Martinez

Melanie deserves a second feature on the list. Carousel is equally as creepy, seeing as you can never get off. Listen here.

10. The Addam's Family Theme

Creepy and they're cooky, and they'll make your party fun and spooky! Listen here.
