The Boulet Brothers to Unleash ‘Halloween House Party’ EP After ‘Dragula’ Season 6 Premiere
Grab that Freddy Krueger sweater, queue up the Halloween music and wipe the cobwebs off your Jason hockey mask. Spooky Season is approaching, and to help get those spines tingling, the Boulet Brothers are gearing up to release a new musical project.
On Oct. 4, the Boulet Brothers will release The Boulet Brothers Halloween House Party via PEG Records. The seasonal six-track EP finds Dracmorda and Swanthula Boulet combining their love of Halloween and horror with the retro musical sounds of ‘60s pop, surf music and psychobilly – with a modern twist, naturally. The first taste of the project, “All Hallows’ Eve,” is out now.

“We are both obsessed with classic vintage Halloween decorations, sets, costumes, parties, music, etc., and this EP is our love letter to all that gory goodness,” says the duo.
A couple years ago, the Boulet Brothers broke down their 10 favorite horror movie soundtracks of all time for Billboard – and naturally, John Carpenter’s Halloween score was one of them.
“Growing up, it was the first horror soundtrack that invaded my brain. It was instantly recognizable, but it was bone-chilling. There was something about those high-pitched piano notes: It was so simple and so easy to get stuck in your brain and terrifying at the same time,” said Drac Boulet.
“It has one of those magical qualities,” Swan Boulet told us. “When I hear that classic theme from Halloween, it transports me back to trick or treating, the season of the fall, everything about Halloween that I love.”
The Boulet Brothers Halloween House Party EP arrives just a few days after the season six premiere (Oct. 1) of The Boulet Brothers’ Dragula on AMC+/Shudder. Check out the tracklist below.
