Get your pumpkins out and scream for your lives

It's Halloween today (October 31) and so we’ve decided to start a poll of the scariest songs ever.

We're not talking songs with monster puns or ghostly references, we mean the tracks that really give you the willies.

Just head to our blog and see our list.

Slayer, PJ Harvey and The Birthday Party all made the list but have we missed out any majorly spooky songs?

Just go to the NME Blog, leave a comment and tell us what songs scare you the most and why.

Don’t forget to send the blog round to your mates to get the ghostly, er, spirit going.
