  • "Halloween" is the fifth single by the horror punk band the Misfits. It was released on October 31, 1981 on singer Glenn Danzig's label Plan 9 Records. 5,000 copies of the single were pressed on black 7-inch vinyl, some of which included a lyrics sheet. This was the first Misfits release to use their Famous Monsters of Filmland-inspired logo, as well as the first to refer to the band as simply "Misfits". The "Halloween" single was the last Misfits release to include guitarist Bobby Steele. Both songs on the single had been recorded in August 1980 for a planned album. During the sessions bassist Jerry Only was grooming his younger brother Doyle Wolfgang von Frankenstein to join the band, and Doyle recorded his own guitar tracks and overdubs separately in addition to Steele's. The tracks were mixed in September, but in October Steele was ejected from the band in favor of Doyle and the planned album was scrapped. Three of the songs were released as the 3 Hits from Hell EP, while "Halloween" and "Halloween II" were released as a single. In 2001 Caroline Records attempted to release the complete sessions as 12 Hits from Hell, but production was called off after Danzig and Only expressed concerns with the album's layout, packaging, liner notes, mixing, and mastering. The lyrics to "Halloween II" are in nonstandard Latin, translating to: Ancient formulas of exorcisms and excommunicationsThat witches and those made wolves believeI maim now the demon clothed in wolfskinHaving to hide in the hollow of a treeI say werewolves can change shapes (en)
  • Halloween è un singolo dei Misfits, pubblicato in 5000 copie (di cui dieci con la copertina in bianco e nero). Scritta per celebrare la tradizione pagana dell'halloween, non ha nulla a che fare con l'omonimo film del 1978 o con l'horror del 1981. Halloween è stata poi pubblicata in Legacy of Brutality e Collection II, Halloween II solamente in Collection II. Entrambe sono state registrate nuovamente per 12 Hits from Hell, di cui Halloween sarebbe dovuta essere la prima traccia prima della cancellazione. Non fu nemmeno inclusa in 3 Hits from Hell. Nonostante Doyle sia credenziato come chitarrista nel singolo, in Halloween II a suonare è Bobby Steele. Sono state eseguite cover della canzone da parte di AFI (in All Hallow's), Alkaline Trio, Dropkick Murphys, Cradle of Filth, The Unseen e . È stata inoltre utilizzata nella cover del 1988 dei Mudhoney dell'omonima canzone dei Sonic Youth come sample, dopo circa 4 minuti e 58 di canzone. I Samhain hanno registrato Halloween II per . Halloween II è inclusa nella colonna sonora di Halloween - The Beginning. (it)
