Merry Christmas! 🎄🎄🎄

If you like your Christmas carols & festive songs on the ~haunted~ side, here's a thread of my favorites:
This Little Babe

This song has everything: eerie echoing rounds, a breakneck pace, a minor key, storming the gates of Hell, battling Satan... shout-out to my middle school choir director for having us do this one 🙏
God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen

The lyrics may be uplifting, but the melody is, ah, less so. This particular arrangement with an organ is gorgeous
Carol Of The Bells

This was inevitable. You knew this was coming. The bells will ring. No one can stop them. On without end
The Coventry Carol

This one is haunted but moreover haunting. What a dream it would be to sing in a group of angels like this
Christmas at Hogwarts

This one is a novelty. I listened to this album so much when I was younger and this track was always unnerving. It's the slow fade in and out of much cheerier music with no real acknowledgement, as if maybe you imagined it all
Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy

What a gem ❤️
That's about it from me but let me know if I missed any of your favorites and I'll try to post them!

From @ladygreenkirtle: Sir Christèmas
From @booklover966: Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence
From @nathanielrain_: We Three Kings of Orient Are
From @m__thoms: Silent Falls the Winter Snow

I'm now in love with this one
