When you hear the knell of the requiem ball,
Weird glows gleam where the spirits dwell

Zacherley - Dead Man’s Ball
Igor, fetch my raincoat, for I’m going out to play
and don’t expect me home again until the break of day.
From deep within the thunder that’s exploding overhead
come voices from the graveyard that until tonight, were dead.Something’s got them moaning from their cemetery plots
they’ve better things to do than simply lay around and rot.
Although they have no pulses, they all still get around
I guess it’s really true, you just can’t keep a good man down.Listen as the thunder breaks the silence of the night
lightning shrouds of the graveyard in a strange demonic light.
Striking every tombstone as it penetrates the earth,
seeking out the lifeless forms awaiting their rebirth.Six feet underground, you start to hear the anguished cries
of those below, too decomposed to crawl their way outside.
Soon a wave of walking dead will heed the wake-up call,
in search of something juicy for this evening’s dead man’s ball.
This is all I want to listen to now that it’s October.

This is a rip of the vinyl record published in 1969 by Disney Records, featuring the voices of:
Thurl Ravenscroft: Narrator
Ron Howard: Mike
Robie Lester: Karen
Ghost Host: Pete Renoudet
Madame Leota: Elenor Audley
It follows the journey of two teenagers walking home from a date and seeking shelter on the porch of The Haunted Mansion. If only they had known…
Obviously, I had to greatly compress the file to upload something so long. If you’d like a copy of the mp3 in its original quality, send your email to my ask box at http://completelyunproductive.tumblr.com/.

Annabel Lee — By Nightofoblivion
It was many and many a year ago,
In a kingdom by the sea,
That a maiden there lived whom you may know
By the name of Annabel Lee;
And this maiden she lived with no other thought
Than to love and be loved by me.
I was a child and she was a child,
In this kingdom by the sea;
But we loved with a love that was more than love-
I and my Annabel Lee;
With a love that the winged seraphs of heaven
Coveted her and me.
And this was the reason that, long ago,
In this kingdom by the sea,
A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling
My beautiful Annabel Lee;
So that her highborn kinsman came
And bore her away from me,
To shut her up in a sepulchre
In this kingdom by the sea.
The angels, not half so happy in heaven,
Went envying her and me-
Yes!- that was the reason (as all men know,
In this kingdom by the sea)
That the wind came out of the cloud by night,
Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.
But our love it was stronger by far than the love
Of those who were older than we-
Of many far wiser than we-
And neither the angels in heaven above,
Nor the demons down under the sea,
Can ever dissever my soul from the soul
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee.
For the moon never beams without bringing me dreams
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And the stars never rise but I feel the bright eyes
Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;
And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side
Of my darling- my darling- my life and my bride,
In the sepulchre there by the sea,
In her tomb by the sounding sea.
