Elvira's Halloween Special (1986)
If you love, Elvira postpunk new wave or golf music you’re gonna have a good time with this. I didn’t know what to expect and it was mostly music videos, which makes sense for an MTV Halloween special, duh.
But the music was incredible, and it was perfect for putting on a chilly October day while I’m cooking and working from home. I highly recommend it. This also would be great to put on if you’re hosting a Halloween party or an event and you just have it on the TV playing. You can either have it on mute or playing. Some of the highlights were Susie Sue and the Banshees, Ozzy, and of course, Elvira.
This was especially great experience watching because we have a local dance night that plays this kind of music that I haven’t been to in years, and it’s made me feel young again. I love this stuff.
