I’m back with part 2 of songs that horror films introduced me to! When I started this series, it was at a time where Stranger Things fans were getting flack for falling in love with songs by Kate Bush and Metallica through the show. Even though the gatekeeping has seemed to die down, I still wanted to share the songs that I never heard before watching these horror movies, showing that you can be shown new music to love from anywhere! I hope you enjoy! (SPOILER ALERT!!!)
