Nosferatu

“Is this your wife? What a lovely throat” says vampire Count Orlok in this classic 1922 black and white silent movie, loosely based on Bram Stoker’s Dracula story. The tale is all too familiar - vampire meets girl, vampire bites girl, vampire and girl settle down in a nice castle in the country. But Nosferatu has to be one of the most chilling vampire movies ever made. Perfect viewing for Halloween.

Night of the Living Dead

Also perfect for a spooky night in is this oft copied and fondly spoofed 1968 classic horror movie. Radiation from a fallen satellite causes the recently deceased to rise from the grave with a real hunger for human flesh. There’s only one thing for the living to do. Hide in an old farmhouse overnight of course!

Do They Know It’s Halloween?

If dressing up as a skeleton and doing the punch-drunk hokey cokey at the office Halloween party is not your thing, why not treat yourself to Do They Know It’s Halloween? A satirical charity record from the North American Halloween Prevention Initiative – featuring Beck; The Arcade Fire; Sonic Youth; Yeah Yeah Yeahs and more – it was originally released last year and raised money for UNICEF.

Monster Mash

One of things that makes a Wippit subscription great for open minded music lovers is all the version excursions. You can do the Monster Mash this Hallows Eve to any of these versions by those country bandits Hayseed Dixie (still big Wippit favourites), The Misfits or Boris, Heckaty & the Halloweenies who’s Halloween Party album is perfect to keep kids quiet while bobbing apples or whatever they do.

Radio Late Night Show

Ah, the early hours of the morning, perfect for Vampires and insomniacs twiddle their dials (ooh vicar!), in search of solace, and find it in the warm comforting bosom of MOR. Radio Late Night Show features classic tracks to keep you rocking until the cock crows. There’s Cyndi Lauper’s Drove All Night; Mr Mister’s Broken Wings; Rose Royce’s Car Wash; Smokie’s Living Next Door to Alice; Ike and Tina’s Nutbush City Limits and many more. It’s the perfect soundtrack until sunrise.

Natalie Williams

Born in West Berlin, but (not so scary) Natalie Williams grew up listening to Miles Davis, Billie Holiday and Ella Fitzgerald. The girlie swot graduated with a BA in jazz in London before releasing her debut album Yours Truly in 2003. A nu-soul fusion of jazz, R&B and hip-hop grooves, it had Williams compared with Jill Scott and India.Arie. Third album Secret Garden continues the tradition, mixing influences from Stevie Wonder to Henry Mancini, Herbie Hancock to Donna Hathaway. Williams will be playing five nights at London’s Ronnie Scott’s club in November.
