welcome to that Halloween podcast. How you

41
00:04:01.280 --> 00:04:05.120
doing, my friend, I'm well, it's spooky season, there's pumpkin spice

42
00:04:05.159 --> 00:04:08.520
in the air, and I'm happy
to be here. Yeah. Thanks for

43
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:12.719
joining me. Today we're gonna be
talking about the song live again. And

44
00:04:12.759 --> 00:04:17.800
the reason why I actually selected this
one for you is because this song is

45
00:04:17.839 --> 00:04:23.959
associated with a haunted house, one
of the most popular haunted houses from one

46
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:29.079
of the most popular events, Halloween
Horror Nights at Universal Studios theme parks.

47
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:33.759
So why don't you explain to the
folks real quickly your association with haunted houses.

48
00:04:34.120 --> 00:04:39.120
Yeah, so I founded the Haunted
Trastion Network, and we're sort of

49
00:04:39.160 --> 00:04:44.480
a news agency that really covers hanta
attractions worldwide. And of course every Halloween

50
00:04:44.519 --> 00:04:48.160
we do our haunt Athon, which
is daily coverage of haunted houses, and

51
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:53.040
it takes the form of videos,
podcasts, and articles, and we just

52
00:04:53.360 --> 00:04:57.879
celebrate haunted houses daily from September first
through Halloween. So we do a lot

53
00:04:58.120 --> 00:05:01.000
with honted houses. And of course
I go to Universal on both coasts and

54
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:05.800
this year also to Japan to see
that. And of course I loved the

55
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:10.160
Selesh Night when it came across me
because I was like, Wow, I

56
00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:15.279
loved these houses. They were phenomenal
houses. I just I loved especially the

57
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:19.759
Bride of Frankenstein moments, you know, I just I loved it. I

58
00:05:20.120 --> 00:05:25.000
just I also I love how when
you have haunted houses where there are characters

59
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:27.839
that are sympathetic in them and not
everybody is just out to get you mm

60
00:05:27.920 --> 00:05:30.120
hm, you know, because I
totally I feel like I can relate to

61
00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:32.240
the to the Bride, like you
know, I'm like, oh, that

62
00:05:32.240 --> 00:05:36.040
would be terrible if you're you're really
you're like you're trying to bring your love,

63
00:05:36.160 --> 00:05:39.399
like you finally found love and you're
trying to bring your love back to

64
00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:41.959
life. I'm like, yeah,
So the story of this is this,

65
00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:44.319
Like I said, the song was
called Live Again. It is from a

66
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:50.319
haunted house called The Bride of Frankenstein
Lives and Universal Studios Hollywood, the theme

67
00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:58.040
park there. They've been doing these
kind of Universal Monsters houses for this current

68
00:05:58.120 --> 00:06:00.439
year would be the fifth installation.
The first one was in twenty eighteen.

69
00:06:00.519 --> 00:06:04.839
Of course, twenty twenty there was
no event, so the Bride of Frankenstein

70
00:06:04.879 --> 00:06:09.360
Lives is actually from twenty twenty one, so it was the third installation.

71
00:06:09.879 --> 00:06:14.439
And I'm gonna be completely honest,
one of my favorite haunted houses of all

72
00:06:14.519 --> 00:06:18.079
time at Halloween Hornet's Hollywood Loved.
I agree, I agree, yeah,

73
00:06:18.120 --> 00:06:23.600
And the cool thing is it's a. It's an original storyline. It kind

74
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:28.959
of begins where the original story ends, which is, you know, the

75
00:06:29.000 --> 00:06:33.519
bride is surviving an explosion and she
finds the monster dead in rubble and he

76
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:36.480
was the only one that was ever
really nice to her and showed her kindness,

77
00:06:36.560 --> 00:06:41.600
so she decides to do whatever it
takes to save him. And this

78
00:06:41.759 --> 00:06:45.240
song is from the first scene in
that haunted house. And one of the

79
00:06:45.240 --> 00:06:50.240
really unique things about these Universal Monsters
Haunted Houses at Universal Studios Hollywood is that

80
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:55.639
the music is written by Slash from
the band Guns N' Roses. He's been

81
00:06:55.680 --> 00:07:00.040
doing it since the first started in
twenty eighteen. To be fair, I

82
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:03.839
kind of had like Universal Monster representation
throughout the event even before that, but

83
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:11.079
these like standalone houses started in twenty
eighteen. And it's interesting because a lot

84
00:07:11.079 --> 00:07:15.199
of haunted houses use pre recorded tracks, right. There are companies out there

85
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:18.439
that write music for haunted houses.
Some of them were actually talking about on

86
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:24.839
the podcast this month. And it's
different when your Universal Studios Hollywood and you

87
00:07:24.920 --> 00:07:30.319
have a megabudget compared to almost every
other event, and you know, with

88
00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:32.399
a budget like that, you can
get one of the most famous rock stars

89
00:07:32.439 --> 00:07:36.759
in the world to write original scores
for your houses, and that's kind of

90
00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:41.120
what's going on here. On that
note, I think that is something that

91
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:45.040
was, like you said, very
unique about it. The custom music score.

92
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:47.360
Now, it's not unheard of,
I will say it's not unheard of.

93
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:51.959
There are quite a few haunted attractions
in at least in our country and

94
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:57.120
I'm not sure about internationally, but
in our country that do. The vast

95
00:07:57.160 --> 00:08:00.279
majority do not, But there are
a few, you know, like of

96
00:08:00.279 --> 00:08:03.680
Trash has a custom soundtrack. Elej
Haywright had won for a few years,

97
00:08:03.839 --> 00:08:07.480
remember that, you know, there's
yeah, and this year, you know,

98
00:08:07.560 --> 00:08:11.759
Shaktoberfest has some not a custom one, but they have like a few

99
00:08:11.800 --> 00:08:15.959
custom song, like one custom song, and they have some like one liners

100
00:08:15.959 --> 00:08:18.040
that were developed to help with the
story and help with the you know,

101
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.920
the the nightly. So it's not
unheard of, but I think especially in

102
00:08:22.959 --> 00:08:26.279
this instance where it's their own characters
kind of like they're telling you know,

103
00:08:26.279 --> 00:08:30.800
they're expanding the cannon for one of
their own characters, and they're able to

104
00:08:31.439 --> 00:08:33.159
bring that to the music score.
I think that's what sets it apart.

105
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:37.559
Yeah, So do you happen to
remember the first time you heard this music

106
00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:41.399
score, because for me, it
was not at Halloween Hornit's I heard it

107
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:43.559
along with a lot of other people
a lot earlier. Do you happen to

108
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:46.159
remember, I don't know if you
were in the room or not. No,

109
00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:50.080
I was not in the room.
Okay, No. Did they play

110
00:08:50.120 --> 00:08:54.039
it at the presentation at Midsummer Scream
Awaken the Spirits in twenty twenty one.

111
00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:58.279
They were giving a full presentation about, you know, Halloween Hornites that year,

112
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:03.080
and we got a sneak listen to
this particular song, and I gotta

113
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:07.360
tell you, I was in that
room, and I remember in that moment

114
00:09:07.440 --> 00:09:13.639
being like, oh my god,
this is like an epic score. And

115
00:09:13.679 --> 00:09:16.399
I really truly fell in love with
it in that moment. And it's so

116
00:09:16.440 --> 00:09:20.039
difficult when a score is written for
a haunted house, Like there's a lot

117
00:09:20.120 --> 00:09:24.679
going on. There's a lot of
visuals, there's the music, but there's

118
00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:28.639
a lot of sound effects plus screams
on top of that. So like the

119
00:09:28.679 --> 00:09:31.399
score can get lost, But at
the same time, if it were missing,

120
00:09:31.799 --> 00:09:35.679
you would one hundred percent notice that
it was missing. Yeah, So

121
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:39.200
I'm kind of curious what were some
of your first thoughts when you heard this

122
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:43.759
and did you happen to revisit a
walk through of the Haunted House and kind

123
00:09:43.799 --> 00:09:48.240
of here where it's place, because
it's placed right at the beginning of this

124
00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:54.360
Haunted House. I did not encounter
it until being there at the event itself,

125
00:09:54.519 --> 00:09:58.279
but I do remember it leaving an
impression on me. I think we

126
00:09:58.360 --> 00:10:01.200
can get into this instruments later,
but I think, you know, just

127
00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.600
kind of like the I think you
said it exactly right. The epic and

128
00:10:05.679 --> 00:10:09.960
nature of it is kind of what
brought kind of But then again, when

129
00:10:09.000 --> 00:10:13.480
you think about it, if I
remember correctly, you know the opening scene

130
00:10:13.559 --> 00:10:16.080
is like is it's an epics scene. I mean, just thinking about the

131
00:10:16.080 --> 00:10:18.639
storyline, Like you said, it
starts right at the end, and so

132
00:10:20.399 --> 00:10:24.039
your first scene is like you know, you're you're seeing her, She's trying

133
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:28.120
to move rubble off of the monster, and I mean it's a she is

134
00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:33.200
upset. I mean, it's really
like it's a high emotion, high intensity

135
00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:37.639
grand scene. It's not like where
some of them once today where you have

136
00:10:37.720 --> 00:10:41.600
this exposition build up, right.
It starts in a high energy, high

137
00:10:41.639 --> 00:10:45.960
action, high everything, and I
think that comes through in the score.

138
00:10:46.000 --> 00:10:48.200
Of course, if there's high energy
parts to it. But that's what I

139
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:54.159
remember most is just being like,
you're just it's so big of a start,

140
00:10:54.200 --> 00:10:56.440
which is unusual, you know for
Hornet. It's because a lot of

141
00:10:56.480 --> 00:10:58.879
times I think you start with the
facade of the house, or you start

142
00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:03.759
with this year with the Last of
Us, where you start with jokes.

143
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:05.720
You know, it's an ease in. You're eased into it. This one,

144
00:11:05.759 --> 00:11:09.120
You're like, you arrive at her
point of trauma, right, and

145
00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:15.879
then you go from there. It
almost there are scenes where it's almost down

146
00:11:15.919 --> 00:11:20.200
in energy because it's her, you
know, through the decades. And that's

147
00:11:20.200 --> 00:11:24.039
another reason I actually really liked the
how epic it is, because it's an

148
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:28.639
epic story. This takes place over
decades, and she's she's spending you know,

149
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:31.799
like a decades putting together and trying
to find a way to bring the

150
00:11:31.840 --> 00:11:37.879
monster back to life. So it
becomes her quest. So I think it

151
00:11:37.919 --> 00:11:41.039
fits. Yeah, And we,
as the guest, literally walk into the

152
00:11:41.080 --> 00:11:46.000
book. The facade of this this
haunted house was a giant book, beautifully

153
00:11:46.240 --> 00:11:50.840
illustrated, and we walk into it
and right away, like you said,

154
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:56.559
it's just high intensity visuals and the
score and this first song live again,

155
00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:58.320
we can totally get into the instruments. Now, you mentioned some of the

156
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:03.559
instruments what stood out to you,
so so to me the I think the

157
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:07.799
three main things that set up to
me, one is like I'm not sure

158
00:12:07.120 --> 00:12:09.080
at all what it is. You
know, I'm not a musician, but

159
00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:16.120
I feel like I'm hearing this almost
like electrical buzzing type of thing. Like

160
00:12:16.120 --> 00:12:18.080
I know because I know in the
opening scene there's lightning, and of course

161
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:22.240
there's there's a storm and there' stuff
happening. But I know also she tries

162
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:26.600
to at some point resuscitate him just
normally and then figure out, you know,

163
00:12:26.840 --> 00:12:31.039
is like that's not going to work. I need to find other creature

164
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:33.759
parts to kind of help with all
that. So I feel like I hear

165
00:12:33.840 --> 00:12:37.799
that as well, there's this buzzing
that's happening. I love the violin that

166
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.200
comes in and out that kind of
just because to me, the violin is

167
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:43.960
always a I love the violin.
It's one of my favorite like instruments,

168
00:12:43.960 --> 00:12:48.639
and to me, it I think
it very it's very poignant to include that

169
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:52.879
because it does give to me that
sad note of like this is still a

170
00:12:52.919 --> 00:12:56.519
tragic event. And then of course
you get the you know, the classic

171
00:12:56.559 --> 00:13:00.799
slasher thing, you got the guitar, you get the really high energy like

172
00:13:01.720 --> 00:13:05.639
that that instrument to me, so
I think that is the most apparent,

173
00:13:05.759 --> 00:13:09.159
you know that. I remember hearing
that when I first came in. It

174
00:13:09.279 --> 00:13:15.919
just felt like my first impression really
was of the guitar of being like,

175
00:13:15.919 --> 00:13:20.559
oh, this is like a huge
almost like a rock It's so like just

176
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.320
the tone of just being like,
wow, this is so rock and so

177
00:13:24.600 --> 00:13:28.559
like ah. And then there's lightning
and the like and the and the boulders

178
00:13:28.559 --> 00:13:31.200
and the and she's like screaming.
I'm like, oh my god, like

179
00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:35.559
this is crazy. And then you
hear later like you hear the notes of

180
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:37.840
the violin, and you hear the
electrical stuff. So I think that's what

181
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.080
I picked out, what I noticed. Yeah, what I really love about

182
00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:45.639
this is that the music is very
modern. Right. It's electric guitar,

183
00:13:45.840 --> 00:13:48.240
so it's a very electric, right. I think there's some synthesizer in there

184
00:13:48.279 --> 00:13:56.960
and such, And there is the
possible, you know, problem of telling

185
00:13:56.960 --> 00:14:01.159
an old story. These are old
characters and they look very old, and

186
00:14:01.279 --> 00:14:05.600
adding in very modern music could feel
out of place. But I don't think

187
00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:09.840
it does at all. I think
it works a million percent. The sound

188
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.000
that you were talking about I describe
and I don't know exactly what made the

189
00:14:13.039 --> 00:14:18.039
sound, but it sounds like a
grating metal to me or something like that,

190
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.639
like kind of like you have a
buzz saw and you're scraping it against

191
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:24.799
metal and you're causing sparks to fly
like. That's the sound to me,

192
00:14:26.039 --> 00:14:28.639
and I love that, and I
think that's a great sound effect musical choice

193
00:14:30.000 --> 00:14:35.679
there. Of course, the electric
guitar riffs from Slash feel very November Rain

194
00:14:35.919 --> 00:14:39.480
if you're familiar with the Guns n'
Roses song November Rain, which is such

195
00:14:39.480 --> 00:14:41.799
a tragic, sad song. But
you've got that in there, You've gotten

196
00:14:43.039 --> 00:14:46.399
organ sound in there, so you're
bringing back some of that kind of older

197
00:14:46.600 --> 00:14:50.399
sound. It's a little EDM to
me, do you think so? Yeah?

198
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:54.720
I agree, And actually I really
like EDM and I agree. I

199
00:14:54.759 --> 00:14:58.200
didn't think of it till now,
but I do agree it is very EDM.

200
00:14:58.399 --> 00:15:03.279
It's so such a Again, this
is why you compose an original score,

201
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:05.759
right, because how could you it's
such a I think, a unique

202
00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:09.039
piece to get all these elements together
and have it fit the story. So

203
00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:11.879
well, because you know you,
like you said, it's all the electric

204
00:15:13.039 --> 00:15:16.240
guitar, electric moments, and that
fits in with the monster and his creation,

205
00:15:16.440 --> 00:15:18.960
and you know, with her later
trying to resuscitate him, and then

206
00:15:20.000 --> 00:15:24.799
you get the melancholy notes in there, but then you also get the the

207
00:15:24.879 --> 00:15:30.159
high energy like EDM portion. I
mean it it you know, it's it's

208
00:15:30.240 --> 00:15:35.279
it's a, it's a. It'd
be such a difficult song to find,

209
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:37.320
you know, if you didn't,
if you didn't compose it originally. And

210
00:15:37.360 --> 00:15:41.120
by the way, this is scene
one, chapter one. There are other

211
00:15:41.240 --> 00:15:46.759
chapters to follow, all with their
own musical scores, so it's it's kind

212
00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:50.519
of wild to think, you know, each scene has its own score,

213
00:15:50.519 --> 00:15:54.600
and of course they have similar feels
to it. But I don't know,

214
00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:58.120
I really really really love this one. I'm curious if you had to describe

215
00:15:58.720 --> 00:16:03.320
this score just one word, what's
the word that you would choose. I

216
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:07.600
think I would. I would choose
electric electric Okay, yeah, you know,

217
00:16:07.679 --> 00:16:12.399
even though that kind of leaves out
the melancholic notes, but I think

218
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:18.720
the overall vibe to me was electric. Like I remember, my main impression

219
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:22.360
was being that it was so high
energy, you know that it was just

220
00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:26.559
so big and epic and just like
an active emotion, you know, like

221
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:30.240
because there's there's a way to be
sad, you know, but this felt

222
00:16:30.240 --> 00:16:34.000
more like anguish mixed with type of
thing. You know. It wasn't like,

223
00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:37.279
you know, she's like screaming it. It's so to me, it's

224
00:16:37.279 --> 00:16:41.159
just like it's electric. Ye,
it's high energy. It's electrifying. That's

225
00:16:41.159 --> 00:16:44.240
what I say. For me,
the word is grand. That's the word

226
00:16:44.240 --> 00:16:47.120
that comes to mind for me.
It's just very grand. I think epic

227
00:16:47.200 --> 00:16:49.639
is fitting as well, but it's
it's it's big, you know, it's

228
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:53.200
big, and it's loud, and
it's it just does the job. I

229
00:16:53.240 --> 00:16:56.279
really really love it. And I'm
you know, I'm not particularly a Guns

230
00:16:56.320 --> 00:17:00.720
n' Roses fan by any means,
but I I think that this kind of

231
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:07.759
run of Slash writing the scores to
these haunted houses is a real success and

232
00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:10.920
and you know, I love it, and I love that they're available.

233
00:17:11.480 --> 00:17:14.759
Some of these scores are available on
Spotify, as you can hear in the

234
00:17:15.440 --> 00:17:19.000
That Halloween Podcast playlist. So very
very cool. Anything else you want to

235
00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:22.039
add, Actually, there's one thing
I want to talk about that has nothing

236
00:17:22.079 --> 00:17:26.119
to do with the music, but
it's a pet peeve. Okay. So

237
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:30.839
in the original story, who is
Frankenstein? The original story of Frankenstein is

238
00:17:32.119 --> 00:17:36.799
the person who creates the monster,
Great Doctor Frankenstein, and so his creation

239
00:17:36.960 --> 00:17:41.480
is referred to as the monster or
Frankenstein's Monster, right, So who the

240
00:17:41.519 --> 00:17:47.839
hell is the Bride of Frankenstein.
It's the bride of Frankenstein's Monster. Yeah

241
00:17:47.920 --> 00:17:52.839
it is. Yeah, Yeah,
drives me crazy anyway, just throwing that

242
00:17:52.920 --> 00:17:56.720
out there. It drives me nuts, just because I feel like that's such

243
00:17:56.759 --> 00:18:00.359
a like a thing, like,
no, his name's not Frankenstein's Monster,

244
00:18:00.599 --> 00:18:03.480
you know, And and then they
just completely negate that. And I'm not

245
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:07.960
saying this haunted house created this problem. This is a problem long before that.

246
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:11.559
But I just the title the Bride
of Frankenstein. Uh, you know,

247
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:15.119
is is not consistent, which,
if anybody knows me, that drives

248
00:18:15.160 --> 00:18:18.079
me crazy. Now, Phil,
before you go, you need to answer

249
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:23.680
the that Halloween Podcast season three rapid
Fire questions. Are you ready? Yes,

250
00:18:23.720 --> 00:18:30.279
I'm ready? Okay. What is
the scariest sounding instrument? Oh gosh,

251
00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:33.000
I think I forget which one it
is, but the one that the

252
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:38.400
strings the it's a string instrument that
always has this dramatic it kind of sounds

253
00:18:38.440 --> 00:18:41.799
like when when you when you use
it, it sounds like it's like discordic

254
00:18:41.880 --> 00:18:45.759
melody type of thing, like it's
off kilter. Oh, I don't know

255
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.039
what you're talking about. I don't
know. I don't know. I don't

256
00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:49.000
know the name of it. I'll
figure it out, but yeah, it's

257
00:18:49.039 --> 00:18:52.839
it's it's uh to me. Strings
are always the string the string ones.

258
00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:57.119
String instruments are always like the most
speak just because they're like they can be

259
00:18:57.200 --> 00:19:00.039
so discordant, like you can pluck
them in a discordant way. Yeah,

260
00:19:00.119 --> 00:19:04.519
I agree. I love stringed instruments, so they're beautiful. They're beautiful and

261
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:08.519
scary. I love it. What's
scarier in a horror movie? Music?

262
00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:15.519
Or silence? Silence? Say happy
Halloween while doing your best impression of famous

263
00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:25.039
radio DJ Wolfman Jack, Oh my
god, oh god, until tomorrow,

264
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:33.240
Happy Halloween. Yeah ah wow.
I didn't see much effort in that,

265
00:19:33.440 --> 00:19:37.359
but all right, I'll let it
slide. If you were a famous spooky

266
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:40.960
music radio DJ yourself, what would
be your sign off slogan at the end

267
00:19:41.000 --> 00:19:44.799
of each show? Stay spooky,
stay spooky. I like it. What

268
00:19:44.960 --> 00:19:48.799
is the greatest spooky sound effect,
So the one I use. I use

269
00:19:48.880 --> 00:19:52.319
this one all the time when I
make videos. I feel like people don't

270
00:19:52.119 --> 00:19:57.559
don't even notice it. Just I
love like dislike, I love whispers,

271
00:19:59.480 --> 00:20:03.400
little whist and like scratches. Okay, and I will a lot of times

272
00:20:03.400 --> 00:20:07.440
I will just put them into like
Instagram videos and just into some all sorts

273
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:12.880
of stuff just to like add a
little bit of like mystery, excellent instrumental

274
00:20:12.960 --> 00:20:17.359
jump scare in a movie. Love
it or hate it? I love it

275
00:20:17.599 --> 00:20:22.880
like I love it? Cool name
a famous person with an incredible evil laugh.

276
00:20:25.079 --> 00:20:29.880
I just I'm just thinking about Elon
Musk. That's all right, that's

277
00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:37.440
it's fair enough. What's creepier?
Children singing slowly or clowns giggling? Oh,

278
00:20:37.519 --> 00:20:41.119
children singing slowly? For sure.
If you were a scary rapper,

279
00:20:41.359 --> 00:20:47.880
what would your rapper name be?
Probably like something like big Pumpkin, Big

280
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:52.119
Pumpkin. I love that. That's
fantastic. And finally, if there were

281
00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:59.440
one standalone musical Halloween anthem, what
would it be? Oh God, and

282
00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:02.559
you're gonna make me you pick up? Oh gosh, God, I don't

283
00:21:02.599 --> 00:21:04.319
know. I feel like I don't
love it, but I in terms of

284
00:21:04.359 --> 00:21:07.480
an anthem, I think thriller is
like, oh my god. I mean,

285
00:21:08.359 --> 00:21:12.759
it's so ubiquitous, it's so,
it's so, it's just so ubiquitous.

286
00:21:14.079 --> 00:21:17.000
It is everywhere. Yeah, I
would say that would have to be

287
00:21:17.279 --> 00:21:19.200
just in my o. I just
maybe it's just my world. But I

288
00:21:19.200 --> 00:21:23.079
feel like you hear it and anywhere
and anytime it comes up people think about

dot com. But now it's time
to see if you can figure out tomorrow's

300
00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:19.200
music selection. Tomorrow's song was released
in nineteen ninety eight and was written and

301
00:22:19.279 --> 00:22:25.200
performed by a music artist with deep
ties to the dark, grotesque and macabre.

302
00:22:25.720 --> 00:22:29.960
But this artist has taken his love
of horror beyond simply albums and has

303
00:22:30.079 --> 00:22:33.960
directed numerous horror films for the big
screen. The answer will be revealed soon

304
00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:38.359
on our specially curated Spotify playlist,
and of course I'll be discussing it with

305
00:22:38.400 --> 00:22:44.880
a special guest on tomorrow's episode of
That Halloween Podcast, where we're discussing Halloween
