While touring his second studio album for Sacred Bones Records, ‘Lost Themes II’, legendary director John Carpenter played a handful of classic themes from his filmography and one of them was the spooky sounds from 1978’s iconic ‘Halloween’.

Man this is powerfully pure music to my ears and eyes!

John Carpenter, who’s famous for making the untouchable classic The Thing (1982), the insanely underrated Big Trouble in Little China (1986), as well as the iconic slasher masterpiece Halloween (1987), is currently on the road touring with his Lost Themes II album. While the record is filled with many great original tracks, the respected director is also playing themes from some of his more prestigious films; Halloween is part of that list.

What’s even more amazing than that, is the crew has been filming some of the performances from Carpenter’s tour, and wouldn’t you have it, Halloween is part of that list too. And we have the video in all its amazing glory.

Check out the insanely enjoyable video below and try to contain your excitement for those around you as they may think you a freak after freaking out:

Wow… simply wow Fright Fans.

I’ve been a life long fan of all things John Carpenter since I can remember, so this is a real treat for me. The man helped not only shape my tastes in cinema, but also showed me what great direction actually is. This, coupled with his insanely brilliant signature scores, made me a hardcore fan for life.

While the score above is from his 1978 classic about the guy in the white mask that goes around and stalks the babysitters (for my Scream peeps), Halloween, the tour boast basically every recognizable theme from his filmography and many tracks from Lost Themes II. I encourage you to get a ticket to an upcoming tour date and pick up Lost Theme II from Sacred Bones Records, which can be bought from their website directly or from Amazon.
