Most Haunting Songs of All Time

Attention!!!

Most of us are used to listening to chirpy songs, probably because music is meant to cheer us up and put us in a good mood. But there are really sad songs which make us very gloomy but then there are those songs which are so haunting and creepy that our blood runs cold. The spooky music, coupled by the eerie voices of the likes of Amy Lee of Evanescence, Sarah Brightman, Lana Del Rey and Jack Black can send shivers through our spines. These songs are perfect for those dark moments in life where we need liberation from the nightmares that haunt us. Of course do not expect death metal or any sort of satanic music on this list for I do not believe in the worship of Lucifer like Marilyn Manson or Korn. And I have included Michael Jackson's Thriller as the last song, not because it is oh-so terrifying, but as a tribute to the icon who many believe has produced the most popular horror music video to date.   So these are the most haunting songs of all time:
