A Halloween song for children. Fun Halloween songs (41–50)
Ten Scary Steps
As a playground song familiar to children in English, there’s “Ten Scary Steps.” It gives the feeling of slowly making your way through a forest, and the ghosts that appear along the way and the interruptions from distant wolf howls make it feel exactly like a timid nighttime Halloween walk.
Hi Tayo, Halloween
“Hi Tayo Halloween” is a Halloween song born from the South Korean full 3D animation “Tayo the Little Bus,” which features working vehicles as its motif.
It’s an adorable tune with a story about the little buses going out to look for treats on Halloween, and it’s a great choice to sing at kindergarten or nursery school Halloween parties! Since it’s a unique song that brings together working vehicles and Halloween, be sure to check it out if you’re looking for a children’s Halloween song with a different twist.
The Nutcracker, No. 3: Dance of the Sugar Plum FairyPyotr Tchaikovsky
This is the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy from Tchaikovsky’s ballet The Nutcracker—a piece that, for some reason, has long been used as background music for Halloween scenes or graveyards where you might dare each other to test your courage.
The sparkling timbres entwined with a minor-key melody give it a subtly eerie feel, don’t they? It would really enhance the atmosphere if you played it at a Halloween party.
Yokai Human Bemhanī naitsu
For people in our parents’ generation—no, even our grandparents’ generation—when it comes to yokai-themed anime, many probably think of “Yokai Ningen Bem” (BEM).
The old-school anime songs had lyrics that clearly embodied their worlds and memorable melodies, and they’re all exciting tracks that make you feel genuinely happy when you listen to them.
Be sure to introduce this song and anime to your children as well.
Grim Grinning GhostsBadii Beikā
If you want a slightly spooky Halloween song to set the perfect mood for your party, we recommend “Grim Grinning Ghosts.” It’s a number from The Haunted Mansion, the hugely popular Disneyland attraction that also inspired hit films.
The title refers to ghosts grinning eerily, making it an ideal choice to capture that mysterious Halloween atmosphere.
It’s great as one of the background music tracks for your Halloween party! Just be careful it’s not too scary—you don’t want to make the little ones cry.
Heartbeat! Pokémon Halloween ~Trick or Treat~Pokemon
It’s a Halloween song featuring Pokémon.
It clearly explains what Halloween is like as an event.
The song has the characters asking various Pokémon the classic Halloween phrase, ‘Trick or treat?’ As the song progresses, more friends join in, which is adorable and conveys the growing excitement of Halloween.
Although the music has a mysterious vibe, it feels more like friends enjoying Halloween together than something scary.
Mononoke DanceDenki Gurūvu
Denki Groove, Japan’s proudest and most powerful electro-dance unit, deliver this track sung in a super cool whisper voice—despite their trademark humor and playful stance.
As the title “Mononoke Dance” suggests, it’s a ghost-themed song, and there’s no doubt you’ll be grooving to its four-on-the-floor EDM beat.
