Song #1: Spooky Fun On Halloween Night
(Tune: London Bridges)
Verse 1
Ghosts and goblins come to play,
Come to play, come to play,
Ghosts and goblins come to play,
On Halloween night.
Verse 2
Witches flying on their brooms,
On their brooms, on their brooms,
Witches flying on their brooms,
Through the moonlit sky.
Verse 3
Skeletons are dancing ’round,
Dancing ’round, dancing ’round,
Skeletons are dancing ’round,
Rattling their bones.
Verse 4
Trick or treat, it’s Halloween,
Halloween, Halloween,
Trick or treat, it’s Halloween,
Spooky fun for all!
Song #2: The Spooky Jack-o’-Lantern
(Tune: The Itsy Bitsy Spider)
The spooky Jack-o’-lantern went inside the haunted house,
He saw lots of cobwebs and some scary owls about.
He ran into a monster with one big, giant eye,
Then the spooky Jack-o’-lantern hurried and said good-bye!
Song #3: Five Little Pumpkins
(This song is meant to be chanted.)
Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate
The first one said, “Oh, my, it’s getting late!”
The second one said, “There are witches in the air.”
The third one said, “But we don’t care.”
The fourth one said, “Let’s run and run and run!”
The fifth one said, “We’re ready for some fun.”
Then “Ooh” went the wind and out went the lights
And the five little pumpkins rolled out of sight.
Song #4: Wicked Witch Hazel and Friends
If you’re looking for a fun and spooky Halloween song to share with your little ones, then Wicked Witch Hazel and Friends is a perfect choice. Set to the tune of “Little Miss Muffet,” this song introduces kids to a cast of playful Halloween characters like Wicked Witch Hazel, Ghostly old Casper, and Vampire Victor.
(Tune: Little Miss Muffet)
Verse 1
Wicked witch Hazel, Sat by her cauldron,
Stirring a bubbling brew. Along came a spider,
And sat down beside her, Making her jump with a “Boo!”
Verse 2
Ghostly old Casper, Floated through the rafters,
Looking for someone to scare. Along came a bat,
In a swooping attack, But Casper just gave him a glare.
Verse 3
Vampire named Victor, Was out for a picture,
Looking so dapper and neat. But a werewolf howled,
And the moonlight prowled, Victor just ran down the street!
Verse 4
Halloween night is full of fright, Monsters and ghouls in sight.
With witches and ghosts, It’s time for a toast,
To a spooky and eerie delight!
Song #5: Six Little Ghosts
(Tune: Six Little Ducks)
Six little ghosts that I once knew
Creepy ones, scary ones, spooky ones too
But the one little ghost dressed up like a witch
She led the others with a boo, boo, boo
Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo
She led the others with a boo, boo, boo
Down to the graveyard they would go
Floating here, floating there, to and fro
But the one little ghost dressed up like a witch
She led the others with a boo, boo, boo
Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo
She led the others with a boo, boo, boo
Home from the graveyard they would come
Floating here, floating there, ho-hum-hum
But the one little ghost dressed up like a witch
She led the others with a boo, boo, boo
Boo, boo, boo, boo, boo, boo
She led the others with a boo, boo, boo
