Day #9 of the 30 Days of Halloween Challenge

The prompt is A horror television show soundtrack or theme song

Carry On My Wayward Son - Supernatural

This theme song fits the show perfectly. I downloaded the song because of the series. It is over the front credits or the preview section.

Oh youtube suddenly stopped letting me copy and embed videos in my journal and on FB. I have no idea why.

I'm sure everyone can guess what this is going to be.

Nothing can top the original version. Apparently some people in the 1960s were scared by the music itself, because hardly anybody other than avant-garde music enthusiasts had heard anything like it before.

My second favourite version is this one, from the mid 2010s.

Ron Grainer also wrote the theme for The Prisoner and the score for The Omega Man (my favorite version of Matheson's "Last Man on Earth").

Who has the best and most recognizable theme music out there. I love that theme music.
