Yes, you are stuck with another guest host this week. Since Halloween is right around the corner, and since both Jon and I are using a Halloween theme for LAOTW and AOTW, why not do the same with SHT?
So here's what you get this week. Five songs, all with titles that evoke thoughts of Halloween for me. I'm not saying the songs are particularly about Halloween, just the titles. And I'm not gonna tell you who the artists are, at least not yet. I'll give you the song title and you can try to figure out the band. Hopefully, I managed to find 5 songs that are new to you, although the artists may not necessarily be new to you. Enjoy.

5 Tracks
1. Scared To Death
I don't think anyone will have a problem figuring out who this is. The song is from a 1995 album (Japan release, US release was in 1996). I would say this band is somewhat "scary", but the song title fits Halloween perfectly.
2. Ghost Story
This song comes from an American band and from an album released just last year. Not only does the song title fit my theme, so does the band name. This album made an appearance in New Music Corner last year, which is why I bought it.
3. Monster
Monster comes from one of my favorite musicians, but it's a solo album, not his primary band. This was his first solo album, released in 1997. I love the guitar work in this one.
4. Candyman
How 'bout something from a new release. Who says it has to be old to be a hidden treasure? Released earlier this year, this is from an album that very well may end up in my personal Top 10 for the year.
5. Ghost Of Floyd Collins
From 2008, this song is off of the band's second album. Again, it's not old, but I certainly consider it a hidden gem. Good old straight forward rock and roll here, with a slightly southern flavor.
Oh, and here's a pic for you, although it has nothing to do with Halloween, unless you consider this a treat:

No.
Ok, BK was my second guess, so I'm "cooked and done" for this one.

Ok, I went with your way of thinking:
3 is KW (figured it with a couple more listens)
4 is W. Figured this out with the stuff that came out this year.
...and the percussive talents of RM. Yes, that's the band to which the artist on track 3 belongs.
Both times I played this, it started with song number 4, then 5, then back to one.
So, if it did that when Niels listened, then he is right I think on his two guesses.
