Full Remaster - Horror Sounds of the Night Cassette Tape

[@cmeller55]

This is crazy that I found this on youtube. When I was growing up my parents always put out a impressive front yard graveyard scene in Milwaukee for Trick or Treat and this was the tape we played in the background. While they both passed and this tape is long gone, it's almost making me cry hearing it again. I had no idea how popular it was and others would recognize it.

[@shotgunmario]

There is a chance I might have been one of those attending kids!

[@cmeller55]

@@shotgunmario did you grow up near s57th street in Milwaukee?

[@shotgunmario]

No north side by capitol court

[@joemedeiros3610]

I grew up with this cassette as well I am loving this so much 🎃 👻

[@sepsis111]

I started collecting these tapes in the 80's and I used them every halloween...... loved them.

[@keithdailey6581]

I love how the tape in the window actually progresses like a cassette playing in real time. Awesome.

[@ericr8048]

I got this tape back in the '80s and I still have it. It was always a favorite tape of mine growing up. I would listen to it the same way some would listen to a Bon Jovi tape. It is really nice to have this to listen to, rather than having to take out the cassette every time I want to listen to it and put more wear on it (although I do still take it out and listen to the tape from time to time).

[@livestreamsfromtexas2137]

I'm glad I'm not alone in that.

[@ZPaulCenti]

OMG! I used to listen to this tape nonstop 24/7 when I was kid. This explains a lot!

[@josepha3805]

Flip the tape every 15 min

[@Matthewdavispodcast]

Tape very scary

[@ghostfacecollectah6827]

My family used to play this on Halloween night every year. We would put a jack o lantern on top of a ladder with a black cape covering the ladder with a radio on the ladder too playing this tape on repeat for all the trick or treaters 😊 Still have the tape too 🧡🖤

[@AnnieNortonKiene]

I have been looking for this soundtrack for years!! It was the Halloween soundtrack of my childhood for sure. Thank you so much for this!!!

[@billsmafia1792]

Brings back childhood memories

[@axesort9070]

Same! I just found my old one but it is so broken I can't play it!

[@keriannbennett2505]

Omg same!! I was just telling my wife about it! So happy this has been uploaded

👍🏻

[@josepha3805]

Creepy Eepy 👻 be kind please rewind ye Hahahahahahahaha 👻

[@simontieni2348]

This was the scariest tape of all time - bought in the city at a store called the Fun Shop in 1984 - it frightened the hell out of everyone I played it to

[@FuzzyDan]

Sends me immediately back to Halloween night on my porch as a kid. I'd love to have a physical copy of this again just to keep.

[@driveshorses]

I saw some for sale on ebay!

[@DalesBadBug]

topstone !

[@brendastone3610]

I still have my cassette but my boom box I used on Halloween doesn’t work. I ordered another one but I just received it damaged.😢😢 I’m going to play this KZbin version on a speaker for Halloween. This cassette is the BEST BEST BEST Halloween sound effects that I’ve ever heard!

[@april_maybee102]

Call me crazy but I just started crying thinking about how many times I listened to this in the 80's as a kid lol.. Every year we would play it on Halloween and do a great front yard show and my dad would scare so many people lol.. Omg it was a great time and I can't wait to do it this year myself.

[@chrisd530]

It's halloween night and this old tape popped into my head. Came over to youtube to see if someone put it up. Just as I remembered.

[@kgiven100]

Awesome vintage halloween from the 80's. My elamentary school played this during our costume parades...great memories!

[@GTD1973]

Wow I remember this when I was a kid. In the 80's we had this Halloween party. There was a local toy store in the mall called KB Toys that was so popular that year because they were selling Halloween costumes and alot of things for Halloween. This was one of them. My family had to have spent over an hour that day going through all the different Halloween stuff that they had for sale. We wound up using this tape for the party that we had. I was a kid then, but I remember the girls being too creeped out by the music and sound effects to want to come inside. We had to coax them to come into the house haha. Glad to see this is something else that survived the 80's!

[@JK-uj9hs]

As soon as it starting playing it was a seriously nostalgia trip.

[@mollythousand1598]

This tape scared THE SHIT out of me when I was little. My grandma would play it every Halloween.

[@DarthBrtt]

OMG!!! My sister and I had this back in the mid '80s! We used to laugh out loud and make fun of it. lol I probably haven't heard it in nearly 30 years now!

[@dustbowlhammer7119]

This sounds so clean like it was remastered! so many memories!

[@deerfish3000]

@ 8:27 that's me after eating 3 spicy bean burrito supremes from Taco Bell! 🤣

[@shannonlinville6192]

Wow ! Passing out Halloween candy in the late 1980s, Playing at max volume !! 🎃 Pure nostalgia..

[@josepha3805]

Gotta flip the tape every 15 min. But so many kids; so many Almond Joys. And Snickers. And sweet tarts and fireballs and M&Ms. Not so much the candy corn.

[@seang1031]

Thank you so much for uploading such a great sounding copy. I bought this cassette many, many years ago at Ash's Magic Shop in Chicago, and it has been the ultimate soundtrack for Halloween ever since.

[@notoriouswes215]

Man I love this tape! I used to have this when I was a kid, Thx for bringing back the real sounds of Halloween 🎃👻

[@mrmojorisin7274]

This is the most nostalgic thing I've ever found on KZbin 💯

[@mr.jsp.e.channel474]

I still have this tape! What wonderful memories! 👻

[@jamesstewart222]

For me, I was introduced to Horror Sounds of the Night at Fat Man's Forest in Augusta, Ga, in around 1990. They had a haunted hallway with black lights and they were playing this tape on a loud speaker. My mom hesitantly agreed to buy me this tape and it became the sound of Halloween for many years to come.

[@wulfspyder8381]

This is it, the best Halloween cassette ever!

[@Steph_7d7]

Just found all my old haloween tapes a couple days ago including this one. Had them since I was a teen and still love these corny tapes and the memories of Halloween they bring back.

[@roddmatsui3554]

I miss this tape too. I used to buy every Halloween tape I saw at Big Lots, Sav-On and of course the record stores. Every Halloween tape has a different flavor!

[@shotgunmario]

This one (Horror Sounds of the Night) is my all-time favorite, but "Haunted Horror Sounds" is the one I always play for trick or treaters. It's longer and more even-paced, perfect for people coming and going.

[@jeremyscout3464]

We had this in the late 80s/early 90s. Throughout the years I didn't remember what it was called but I always remembered what the tape looked like. I can't believe after all these years I happen to stumble upon it on KZbin. As soon as I started listening I immediately remembered how much it scared the hell out of me as a kid.

[@HalloweenArtist]

So awesome! And thank u for uploading this! I had this tape as a kid in the 80s. I played it all the time around Halloween. I used to fall asleep to it lol! Thanks again.

[@hackett152332]

Omg I had this tape when I was a kid! Scared the life out of me, it still does a bit lol

[@josepha3805]

Yes it does 👻

[@paulsmith9681]

Love this no matter what no what no can beat the 80,s horror movies and Halloween 🙄🎃🎃

[@amg4150]

Loved this music every Halloween back in the day.

[@E.Carbenia]

Man, this is so nostalgic for me! I had another, similar tape that had a voiceover through the whole thing, I remember there was a part about the witches cauldron bubbling and the laughter of the lilliputians and it used some of these same sounds. Wish I could find that one! Thanks for uploading this, it was a trip.

[@andevil777]

The one your thinking about might be the one called Night in a Graveyard/Night in a Haunted House. As I recall it had a spooky narrator/tour guide. I think it's up on KZbin. Good luck and happy haunting!

[@dan1216]

I think the one with the lilliputians is on a tape/CD called Spooky Tales and Scary Sounds

[@maddogsteve5507]

Try chamber of horrors 1988

[@superradness]

Man my kitchen light started flickering once I started playing this 😅

[@notoriouswes215]

I'm actually playing this rn for all the trick or treaters Halloween 2023

[@heartlandhaunter]

It’s amazing how well this sounds, almost as if this was the original factory recording. I have 2 copies of this tape myself, one in a back cartridge with a white label and the other in a transparent cartridge with a white label. The black one sounds pretty good but the white one sounds a bit worse. Either way this is a very good recording for a 99 cent tape made in the 80s.

[@shotgunmario]

I've have half a dozen copies of this tape, but not a black with white label! Sweet!

[@ramember2]

Just stumbled on this cassette at a local thrift store. Well worth the 50 cents!

[@muffinbert]

Thanks for uploading this! My tape is getting old 🎃

[@JenniferMcKelvey]

The band Windhand comes out to this music. When I saw them live and heard this, man the memories came rushing back! I had this tape and listened to it constantly when it came out.

My aunt from Connecticut sent me this tape (to Germany) in Autumn 1985. I can say that she sent Helloween to us because it was so new to us. I still have this Tape 😃👍

I use to play this tape on my TalkBoy and leave it by my neighbors windows thinking they get scared lmaoo😂

Hi I'm visually impaired. I love sound effects! I remember this tape back in the 80s when I was riding the bus to school and my old neighbor had it too and I never new what it was called. I found it years ago on some site and lost it and now I got it back thanks for uploading it. I would like to hear the cd version if you can upload it.

[@ransom6892]

Sounds great! I’ve been trying to do this & found the intro off itunes and a CD rip of Sounds to Make You Shiver, but couldn’t find a good source for the “Phantom of the Cathedral” track without the vinyl static/quality. I do have the CD version of HSotN though, I did notice it was different. Any tracklist on that or notes on what the differences are? I noticed there was at least one track on it that was new, but it seemed like the rest of the tape was the same, just sequenced differently? I may be wrong I haven’t heard it in a while.

[@shotgunmario]

I cleaned Phantom Cathedral by hand in Audition, I don't know of any good copies, I think mine came off of a vinyl transfer wasn't responsible for. I sourced Sounds to Make You Shiver from CD, and Phantom of the Opera from BBC sound effects re-release. Here are the tracks for the CD version of HSotN: 01 - "The Phantom of the Cathedral" taken from Power Records' "Ghostly Sounds" (1974) *** all following tracks are taken from Sounds to Make You Shiver” (1974): 02 - Witch Laugh 03 - Count Dracula and his Victim 04 - Screams & Groans 05 - Moans & Groans 06 - Cats 07 - Dogs 08 - Creaky Door 09 - Breaking Windows 10 - Thunder 11 - Wind 12 - Frankenstein's Monster Breaking Loose 13 - Hooting Owl 14 - [Beginning ection of (?)] A Night in a Haunted House (Side A) Also IIRC, the audio is 19:45 long, and it loops twice, with one of those times truncated. I don't remember what's missing.

Is the theme at 1:04 a classical peice from history? Is it Bach or something?

Yes! It's called "L'Arlesienne" by Georges Bizet; 'Intermezzo' section. Here is an organ copy of it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/baiaeaOLd91-mdE

Some garbage band from Brazil called Incrust stole the organ music at the very beginning of this cassette, put it on their album, now claim copyright over something they stole.

[@shotgunmario]

I had a copyright dispute over this cassette... it might have been because of them? It was a few years ago, cannot remember.

It's funny at normal speed. At 0.25 it's downright hilarious!!! lol I dare anybody to listen to the lady, old man or cats at 0.25 playback speed and not laugh.

I still have this cassette from when I was a kid. I'm 49 now. Some of it used to be pretty creepy sounding. Except for the people trying to sound like cats haha.
