What a great list! I may have to download some of those!

We have two cd's. One is a Little People cd, so it's mostly songs for young kids, a lot of them are regular songs that they've made up Halloween words for (e.g., Mary had a Little Spider). My kids like it but it's not my favorite. We have another one that came from Target last year (Target brand) that's just called Halloween. It has some of the songs from the list. Unfortunately, I can't find it this year!

The other music I like to listen to for Halloween is the music from the Harry Potter movies. I am waiting for the soundtrack from the third movie to arrive which I think will be great. It has a children's choir singing Something Wicked This Way Comes.
 
Time to bump this back up!

War of the Worlds 70th Anniversary

Many here will know of the War of the Worlds radio brodcast that scared alot of folks on October 30, 1938. At least a couple of radio stations are planning to mark the 70 year annivesary.

KMHL Broadcasting ( http://marshallradio.net/ ) in Marshall, Minnesota will air a new stage production of War of the Worlds Halloween night 2008 begining at 7 pm Central.

A low power station in Dayton, Ohio is doing much the same thing, but I couldn't find a listen link. There may be others. If so list them here if they have a listen link!

Listen for OTR and public radio stations to air the War of the Worlds on or near Halloween as well. If you know of any, again, post them, especially if they have listen links.
