Note:

If you so wish, there is a music player at the bottom of the page that I made on playlist.com. It has dozens of spooky songs on it, and you can activate it by scrolling to the bottom of this page and pressing 'play'. I would suggest popping out the player, since otherwise it will start over every time you visit a different page on my blog.
