What are the best Halloween-themed music for today?
Danse Macabre, classical music.
Thriller of course.
and monster mash.
Oh yes the Monster Mash!
Depending what you look for.
For horror role-playing, I sometimes put various dark ambient playlists from youtube/spotify with artists like Atrium Carceri or Cryo chamber not sure whether they really have an audience out of the rpg community
Doom metal, may also be a good choice Blood Ceremony has some pretty dark tones (even though their latest Album is more modern blues than doom metal) or Uncle acid. Iff you’re into the slow music you can go for band like Monarch!
Lament of the Highborne - WoW

The spirit halloween trilogy
If you enjoy folk songs or ghost stories, take a listen to Charming Disaster
Anything by Gnome.
I don’t care if Gnome isn’t “Halloween themed,” I’m still gonna recommend them to anyone I can. They have badass guitar riffs and choruses, and they always wear their pointy hats.
