Trick or treat!!! It's a bit of both, as I've outsourced this year's Halloween writeups to the community-at-large, who came through in spades! (If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go as a team!)

Enjoy this magnificent seven of vampire-, haunted castle-, hellride-, dystopia-, greedy-capitalist-, blood-drippingly-, hack-and-slash-appropriate VGM arrangements! :-)
Rounding out our treasure trove of macabre offerings is rock GAWD Juan Medrano with a lil' John Carpenter/Halloween influence on a DASTARDLY NES game, Friday the 13th!

I could NEVER keep the kiddos or the camp counselors alive, ugh. Well, at least Juan says he had fun:
"Just a remix of the Friday the 13th cabin theme I started several years ago. Wanted an atmospheric, spooky 80s horror film sound with modern, heavy guitars. Pretty simple. Spooky rock/metal/whatev. As always, had a blast playing around with those vintage synth sounds."
The fun Juan had taking on this dark, forboding, earworming theme was noticed by judge prophetik music:
"opens with bells and some distant strings. big prototypically evil bass synth comes in soon after as well as some limited kit with loads of verb on it. [...] guitar comes in at 1:25 and sounds great, as expected. 2:18 the drum rhythm changes a bit and is more intense which is nice [...]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jn5szaglfl73gxdp2tqxjrht/bafkreigafmlhs5t2okrhziri6qnzbgppssdklwk6q3t2pkbyms3te44bpy)
