Halloween II is a one-sided single by Sonic Youth released in the United Kingdom in 1986.

"Halloween" is a single released by The Misfits. 5000 copies were pressed (10 with black and white sleeve). Celebrating the Pagan tradition of Halloween, this song has nothing to do with the 1978 Halloween or the 1981 horror movie Halloween II.

Halloween was later released on both Legacy of Brutality and Collection II, Halloween II was only released on Collection II. Both were re-recorded for 12 Hits From Hell, which Halloween would have been the first song on before cancellation. Neither was added to 3 Hits From Hell.

Although Doyle was credited as guitarist on this single, Bobby Steele's guitar was used on Halloween II.

The song has been covered by the bands AFI (on All Hallow's EP), Alkaline Trio, Dropkick Murphys, Cradle of Filth, The Unseen, and The Texas Chainsaw Mascara.

The song Halloween has been sampled in Mudhoney's 1988 cover of the Sonic Youth song of the same name (not a cover) at about 4:58 into the song.

Samhain later re-recorded Halloween II for November-Coming-Fire, but it was a much slower version, featuring the use of artificial harmonics.

Halloween II is on the soundtrack for the 2007 re-make of the horror movie classic Halloween

Halloween is a single by the heavy metal band King Diamond. This single is taken from the album Fatal Portrait and contains the track "The lake" not released on the original release of the album. It was later included on the re-issue.

"Halloween" is a song by Dave Matthews Band from the 1998 album Before These Crowded Streets. The song was originally released as a live track on their EP Recently in 1992. "Halloween" was the only song frequently played live by the band before its LP album release. The song debuted live on Halloween of 1992 (10/31/1992) and was originally titled, "The Halloween Song." It opened the show, and features Kristen Asbury. The debut is different from new versions of Halloween, and it also comes is the longest version of the song (12:07). This song was written by Dave Matthews about an ex-girlfriend of his who turned down his proposal of marriage three times. It is believed that Halloween is the second in a set of three songs written about said ex-girlfriend. The first being "I Will Back You Up", and the third being "Grey Street".

"Halloween" is the only track on Before These Crowded Streets not to have lyrics included in the CD cover. Additionally, live versions of this song feature Matthews singing different and sometimes nonsensical lyrics that do not correspond with the studio version. Matthews claimed that he chose not to include the lyrics in the cover because he did not want his mother reading the offensive words. However, the song was copyrighted with the lyrics "Love... love... love..."

The track on Before These Crowded Streets features orchestral arrangements by John D'earth with D'earth on the trumpet and The Kronos Quartet on strings, and segues directly into the following track, "The Stone."

"Halloween" (B-side "Saturday Night Holocaust") is the seventh and final single by the Dead Kennedys. It was released in December of 1982 on Alternative Tentacles. The lyrics use the metaphor of a Halloween party to address the theme of human responses to nonconformity.The song is from the band's second album, Plastic Surgery Disasters.

"Saturday Night Holocaust" is a song comparing drug-filled disco culture in the 70's and early 80's to cabaret culture in Nazi Germany, namely in the case of the apathy towards the governments actions. It ends with a modern version of the Nazi's persecution of the cabaret, and can in some ways be seen as a sort of companion to California Uber Alles ("a Hitler youth in a jogging suit smiling face branded round his arm" can be seen as a re-appearance of the hippie-nazis of the aforementioned song).
