PlaylistDark and moody, the shadowy end of the three albums
Spooky playlist
The darkest tracks of the three albums, picked by measured brightness: the 18 that sit lowest in the spectrum, from the haunted house, the witching hour and the costume party. Moody and slow to build, spooky without any jump scares.

About this playlist
This is the “spooky playlist” in the literal sense: of the 25 tracks in the haunted, witching-hour and party playlists, these 18 are the ones with the darkest tone. We measured the brightness of every track (the spectral centroid) and took the lowest. The result is shadowy basslines, hollow pads and slow, creeping grooves.
It is still lofi. Nothing screams, and nothing gets suddenly louder: the loudest jump between two moments in any track here is 12 dB. That makes it a good spooky background for a haunted house or a story night. It is not a horror soundtrack.

Questions
What is the best spooky playlist for a party?
Start with this one if you want the mood to stay shadowy, or with Costume Party if you want something groovier. Both are free and loop by themselves.
Is it scary?
It is atmospheric, not frightening. There are no screams, growls or sudden loud moments, so it is suitable for most guests.
Does it have lyrics?
No. Every track is an instrumental.
