Listen to Ozzy’s ‘Halloween Horrors Playlist,’ Featuring Metallica, AC/DC + More
If there's one artist who knows what to listen to during the Halloween season, it's Ozzy Osbourne! Just look at his latest spooky Spotify playlist – appropriately titled “Ozzy’s Halloween Horrors Playlist” – to see how metal’s reigning Prince of Darkness is digging these days!
Ozzy’s playlist aims to “cast a shadow over your Halloween with these creepy classics.” Featuring 69 (ha!) tunes from across multiple decades and genres, it definitely does.
For one thing, it boasts some of his signature tunes (including “Bark at the Moon,” “Diary of a Madman” and “Mr. Crowley”), as well as Black Sabbath’s “Children of the Grave,” “Black Sabbath” and “God Is Dead?” Plus, it’s full of other heavy mainstays, such as Ramones’ “Pet Sematary,” Meat Loaf’s “Bat Out of Hell,” Anthrax’s “Madhouse,” AC/DC’s “Highway to Hell,” Metallica’s “The Four Horsemen,” Rob Zombie’s “Living Dead Girl” and Van Halen’s “Runnin’ With the Devil.”
There are some lighter and/or quirkier additions, too. From The Beatles’ “Helter Skelter” and David Bowie’s “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps)” to Roky Erickson’s “I Walked With a Zombie,” Oingo Boingo’s “Dead Man’s Party” and Warren Zevon’s “Werewolves of London,” there’s plenty of fun and accessible gems on offer.
Of course, you can check out the full playlist below!

Last week (Oct. 3), Loudwire reported on Ozzy revealing that he’s “feeling happier” due to being blood clot free. He’s also planning to give tai chi a try because it’s “good for balance” and “a new adventure” that, hopefully, will allow him to play concerts again. On that note, Ozzy has also commented that he’d like to record a new studio LP prior to taking the stage again.
So, what do you think of “Ozzy’s Halloween Horrors Playlist”? Are there any songs you’d add or remove? (We’d have to include some version of Mike Oldfield’s “Tubular Bells.”) Let us know!
