And for good general background halloween music, there was always several of John Carpenter’s themes from his various movies (Halloween, The Fog, Christine, etc)
I have a couple more tapes somewhere with a bunch more songs on them, but I can’t find them right off. A bunch of heavy metal stuff had halloween themes, and another one had all 50’s and 60’s stuff - lot of stuff from the old Dr Demento radio show.
OK, so in another place and time I was a dj and used to do a lot of halloween parties, so I had alot of this stuff on party tapes.

Wow! That’s a list! I did find this list from iTunes.

I was going to suggest Zevon’s “Werewolves of London” — but I see Paul has already done so.
Of course one could go back to the original meaning of Halloween and sing hymns like “For All The Saints” a day early!
