The Ultimate Halloween College Party Playlist

Abby Zinman

Halloween parties are a staple at college. From creative costumes to fun drinks, it’s a weekend everyone looks forward to. But perhaps the most important part of any Halloween party is the music — it can make or break any event, and can put everyone in the spooky season mood.

So, that being said, it’s super important to have a killer college party playlist for any Halloween parties or get-togethers you may be hosting at school — or even just for yourself. Here are 45 songs to create the perfect Halloween college party playlist (if I do say so myself).
