The funniest part of this video is when Bobby Pickett goes back out of character at the end of the song and he looks and sounds completely normal.

Halloween sucks. Just an excuse to get your kids hyped up on HFCS to begin their inevitable launch toward heart disease.

Sadly...
“In October 2005, Pickett protested inaction on the United States government’s part towards global warming by releasing “Climate Mash”, a new version of his hit single.”

The Monster Mash song is timeless. Still as razor-sharp today as it was back then (the year I was born!).
Bobby "Boris" Pickett made quite a living from that song. He was still performing it decades later. Here is a 1992 performance of it. Also, Bobby recorded a Christmas version of the song called "Monster's Holiday" which was a minor hit but appears on many 1960s Christmas compilations of which I had a few.
The song never made him fabulously wealthy however. By the early 1970s, he was a taxi cab driver in NYC, if you can believe that. But shortly thereafter, the song re-charted and Bobby was in demand pretty much every Halloween thereafter, finally passing away in 2005.

This song now reminds me of the Halloween episode of Freaks and Geeks. So good and pitch perfect for the times.

“when I open the door the kids give me candy.”
Funny. Clearly the kids give you respect.

He really nailed those voices and the lyrics to this song are more than clever.
Was fun to see that. Thanks!
