The Monster Mash

"Monster Mash" is a 1962 novelty song and the best-known song by Bobby "Boris" Pickett. The song was released as a single on Gary S. Paxton's Garpax Records label in October 1962 along with a full-length LP calledThe Original Monster Mash, which contained several other monster-themed tunes. The "Monster Mash" single reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart on October 20 of that year, just in time for Halloween. It has been a perennial holiday favorite ever since.

  1. It's not a Halloween Party til you hear "The Monster Mash" playing. =)

    I think it's the Misfits, they do a really good cover of the song. But you it's no where near as good as the original. =)
