Haunting music

[spup1122]

Anyone know any good mysterious or haunting music. I'm working on a multimedia project and need some background music that leaves a person feeling... haunted.

The Exorcist is pretty good, but may too recognizable.

The music at the beginning of "The Shining" is great.

The score for "Platoon" isn't haunting in a scary sense, but I find it haunting in a horrors of war type of way.

Pink Floyd - "Welcome to the Machine"

 

[BYH]

Anything by David Hasselhoff.

People can PM me for a few details on what I'm doing. But for the most part.. think video/photo slideshow with haunting instrumental music with a voice over in certain areas. It should turn out really cool. I'm trying to think of haunting classical music, but the only thing I have come up with is Raindrops Prelude with I think is Chopin.

With that in mind.. can I put the BYH logo at the beginning or end of the production?

Pink Floyd's "Run Like Hell." Most of The Wall is creepy, actually.

Also, Led Zeppelin's "No Quarter" off of Houses of the Holy. The louder it is, the creepier. Robert Plant has some wails on there that you can only hear when it's loud.

The 8 seconds one? Sure...why not?

Instrumental. Oh.

"Mars" - Gustav Holst

I've heard all the planets are pretty haunting, Sam, but Mars especially. I have friends who have said they couldn't even listen to the movements past Mars. I'll have to look into that.

Here Comes The Bride?

Well done, sir.

It depends on the length of your presentation or, more importantly, the length of the clip of music. "Jupiter" might not be a bad pick, either.

Echoes - Pink Floyd
It is pretty much an instrumental
or
Sheep - Pink Floyd
that is pretty freaky, especially when smoking weed and sitting in a candle-lit room, or so I've heard.

Good suggestion.

Also, take a listen to Peter Gabriel's soundtrack for the Last Temptation of Christ. Haunting, indeed.

'Pray for the Dead'
'Monster Mash'
'Werewolves in London'

BYH's new logo.

No, this is BYH's new logo. I own it, and all the subsidiary rights.

No Quarter's instrumental parts are a good call.

Also, for classical music (though it may be more foreboding than haunting) try Stravinsky's "Rite of Spring."
