This week is going to be a fun one, Penn State. Saturday is Halloween, meaning that this Halloweek is the spookiest five days of the year. If that’s not reason enough to celebrate, the football team will be back in Beaver Stadium this weekend after winning an exciting game in Maryland to again become bowl eligible.

To get you in the spooky spirit, we’ve created a playlist of Halloween-themed songs– everything from ghosts and demons to witches and magic. So as you put together your costume(s), get in the mood with Halloween classics like “Ghostbusters,” Penn State anthems like “Zombie Nation,” and early 2000s tunes that emulate the sweet consumption habits of the holiday, namely “I Want Candy.”

Special thanks to Maggie DeWitt for contributing to (most of) this playlist.
