Top 10 Halloween Karaoke Songs

1. Thriller – Michael Jackson

The ultimate Halloween karaoke song and the go-to for every ghost and ghoul on October 31st. The song, the dance, and the costumes all scream Halloween. There are extra points on offer for the singer who can pull off the Vincent Price impression at the start.

2. Ghostbusters – Ray Parker Jr.

Right from the opening line, “If there’s something strange in the neighbourhood,” you know you are onto a winner. Everybody loves to sing the iconic line “Bustin’ makes me feel good” before strutting their stuff like they are in Times Square. Ideal for groups, solos, and even duets.

3. Everybody (Backstreet’s Back) – Backstreet Boys

For all the “Larger than Life” singers out there, this Backstreet Boys classic is always a fantastic choice for Halloween. The song demands you and your friends shout “Yeah” in response to you belting out “Am I sexual?” Either a memorable moment for your mates or an HR issue for work on Monday morning. Perfect for your ghostly night out either way.

4. I Put a Spell on You – Nina Simone

Of the 10,000+ songs listed on our karaoke machines, you have 5 different versions of this banger to choose from. The classic soulful Nina Simone version, the rockier version from Creedence Clearwater Revival, or even the 00s cover from Sonique. However, in our humble opinion, Bette Midler gave us the ultimate cover in her Winifred Sanderson version. Pick one, two, or all of the different versions – see which suits you best.

5. Monster Mash – Bobby “Boris” Pickett & The Crypt-Kickers

The ultimate crowd pleaser. For this classic, you’ll need to look at our big-screen TVs to remember the words to everything except “He did the mash, he did the monster mash.” Nobody knows the verse; everybody knows the chorus, meaning you can pick this without fear of judgement.

6. Jump in the Line – Harry Belafonte

Infectious calypso rhythm, perfect for anyone heading out as Beetlejuice or any other Tim Burton-themed character costume, of which there are many. Campy, fun, and sure to get everyone up jumping in line around all of Karaoke Heaven.

7. Time Warp – Rocky Horror Picture Show Cast

For those of you who love to sing in stockings and suspenders, this is the song we recommend you pick to belt out. Or challenge your co-singers to take “just a jump to the left” as you take “a step to the right.” Choreography, vocal range, and Time Warp energy – one of the key ingredients for any Karaoke Heaven song session.

8. Somebody’s Watching Me – Rockwell

Ever tackled this song on the mic? It’s the Halloween karaoke song everyone forgets, but it gets your approval when you pull it out of the witch’s hat. Not only is the song a banger, it’s also the secret Michael Jackson Halloween song (he sings the chorus) – a go-to after you sing Thriller and want to show off.

9. Magic Dance – David Bowie

“Dance Magic Dance” is one of those songs you need in your back pocket for any night out, but especially Halloween. Throw the Labyrinth classic into your karaoke room queue, and you can’t lose. Bowie diehards will belt out every word, and everyone else will get swept up in the chorus soon enough. Just maybe skip the “snips and snails and puppy dog tails” bit if you want to feel good the morning after.

10. Haunted – Taylor Swift

No night is complete for any group of karaoke singers without a bit of Taylor Swift. Definitely a wild card to keep the Swifties in the group happy. If you want a song that feels spooky without singing about the boogeyman, this is your pick.

Every one of these songs is available in all of the Karaoke Heaven private rooms, perfect for groups of 2 all the way up to 25. Costumes are always welcome, though never required. All of our venues are open on Halloween, so we recommend booking in advance to make sure your gang of ghouls, vampires, and witches gets the chance to sing the night away.
