Jose G. Cruz Presenta SANTO, El Enmascarado De Plata #59 & #902
Mind-bending cover it may be, but the inside is only mind-dulling, so I present an excerpt from the following...
By the way, in case you hadn't noticed, this fotonovela Santo is not the real Santo we all know and love, but merely a substitute...
I believe I read somewhere that the real Santo insisted that the fotonovela Santo wear an "S" on his mask to differentiate between the two...

Ball Records - Ghost Stories
Sad to say, I'm running out of the good stuff, at least stuff that's inescapably October Country. I know it has a cool cover but posting this is like dropping a stale caramel apple left over from last Halloween into the ol' Trick-or-Treat bag and having it tear a hole in the bottom. For completists only. Of course, I love it. Well, Side One anyway...

Hometown Halloween...
I need to compose myself before I can compose this...let Nostalgia drug me senseless...
I will give you no information about this record- I will leave that up to Scarstuff, for reasons that will become apparent when you read the very last comment on his post. I used to work for the family of the guy who left that comment. I have a few copies of this record & cassette. Now you too will have a copy in the digital format. My first favorite Halloween record cover. The first track is really weird & cool- the rest of the record is just weird. It figures, it was made here in Houston...

Haunted House Music Co. - Haunted House & Night In A Graveyard (NEW!)
The 80's weren't all bad, as evidenced by these totally radical sound effects records. I like them because they are still using as their sonic foundations old-timey library effects mixed together in a new-ish way- no samplers or digital keyboards in sight yet. Haunted House (NEW!)(1985) is a favorite of mine- it has a drifting musical loop that I originally heard in Teenagers From Outer Space, a film that features a lot of the same cues that most of us horrorphiles are familiar with from the Night Of The Living Dead soundtrack.

Three years later, Haunted House(1988) was re-issued at twice it's original length and half it's original cover. Like most records of this type, one side is one long ambient track and the other features individual effects. For this version, the effects tracks are simply repeated- clean the first time, secondly treated with that crappy harmoniser-thing that totally dominated scary sound effects of 80's horror films and which I hate with a passion. What's different about the ambient track? Why, the addition of a NEW! middle section which, in hip-hop parlance, has been "screwed"- I'll let you hear it for yourself...
Same stuff, different configuration- more wind, less music. Anyway, I do recommend these for scaring your friendly neighborhood trick-or-treaters or for those of you who like to do housework at night...
