I am trying to find any country music that has any sort of horror element to it.?
By adminSimiliar songs in other genres would be Nightmare on My Street by Fresh Prince, Werewolves of London by Warren Zevon, Hammer Horror by Kate Bush, Cyclops Rock by They Might Be Giants. Each of these songs has some element of horror to it. Cyclops Rock makes references to Chucky from the Childs Play movies. Hammer Horror is about the old Hammer films that were made long ago.
Any answers as obscure as they might be would be great. I am looking for quantity right now and will weed through them as I can.
Other genres than country are good as well, but not artists that are gonna be all about horror like Rob Zombie and Marilyn Manson. I am looking for the “other” songs in our culture that have horror in them in some way. If that makes sense.
Thanks,
JimmyZ

The Devil Went Down to Georgia by the Charlie Daniels Band maybe? Not really horror, but with the devil there’s certainly evil.

check out Those Poor Bastards, maybe a little Unknown Hinson, kinda horror like at points, but humerous also.
