Happy Halloween to all members...be safe and don't eat too much candy.

I am listening to a cylinder "Ragtime Goblin Man" from a Amberol wax cylinder.

So, do any of our fellow collectors, know of any titles of Halloween type songs?

Dance of the Skeletons by Sodero's Band which I have on Diamond Disc No. 50287

The very handsome Ada Jones and this classic. https://youtu.be/aWjKcTerNr4

Two titles in my collection come to mind. Fortunately, they are also online:

"Halloween Dance" on Edison 2m wax

Edison Blue Amberol: 3661

Thanks for providing the UCSB links. I didn't know it existed and I really have enjoyed looking for songs especially Ada Jones tunes.
