Songs That Horror Films Introduced Me To – Part 4

A while back, fans of the show Stranger Things got angry that younger generations were introduced to performers such as Metallica and Kate Bush through the show. Since I thought the whole thing was ridiculous, I started this series of showing the older and more famous songs that I heard for the first time in horror films. I wanted to show that a person can be introduced to good music ANYWHERE. I honestly forgot about this series, but I’m having a chill day today, so I decided to finally give you guys part 4! These are some of the songs that I’ve never heard of until I watched these films. I hope you enjoy!! (SPOILER ALERT!!!)
