A Note from the Composer:
Halloween has always been very special to me. As a kid, it meant hay rides, haunted houses, renting scary movies, and trick-or-treating through our idyllic Illinois suburb. My memories of Halloween are filled with warmth and wild imagination. So, I decided to write and record this album in an attempt to capture some of that spirit. Many of these tracks are drenched in nostalgia for my childhood (Memories of Halloween, The Ghost of John). Others pay homage to the kind of music that I grew up hearing, whether it was in a haunted house, a movie, or Halloween CD or cassette. I have even gone so far as to include some of the houses from my hometown in the artwork.
Composing this music and producing this album has been an intense labor of love - one that has enriched my passion for the genre and season. My hope is that this music will evoke the same magic and thrills that I experienced while writing it, and that it will bring charm and excitement to whoever finds it. To all of the eternal trick-or-treaters, this music is for you.
