1.0 out of 5 stars Awful, November 7, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Halloween Sound Effects (Audio CD)

I have bought about 10 CDs for Halloween; and this one
sadly rates as one of the worst. Quality recording and
editing is about the only good thing I can say about it.
The tracks of people laughing sound forced and artificial; the
spirits sound like a couple of junior-high schoolers.
The tracks of screams are just screams, without any force or
fear in them.
The vast majority of the tracks are very short, even less than 5 seconds, don't offer anything especially spooky, and the CD is virtually useless to play for trick-or-treaters on Halloween. It would have been far better if the creators used their talents to make several collages of scary sounds grouped according to various themes. Several years ago, you'd have to make do with something as mediocre as this. But these days there are lots of other Halloween CD alternatives. If you want real satisfaction,
skip this waste of money and go for one of those alternatives.

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Halloween Effects, October 30, 2004

I purchased this CD and I was ripped off. The sounds on the CD are pathetic. They are of poor quality, with one person standing in a sound booth. I could have made a better recording with my tape recorder and mic myself.
I was looking for a CD to compile a string of sounds for my Haunted house. Now I have to find another means of getting these sounds. DON'T BUY THIS CD. You will not get your moneys worth.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good sound effects CD, January 2, 2004

If you are looking for individual sound effects, this is a good CD to buy. It is not designed to be played in its entirety for trick-or-treaters. Rather, you should use it to record individual tracks for other uses. When used in this manner, it is an excellent CD. The tracks are seperated by blank space so it is easy to select individual sounds. There is a good range of sounds, from spoken words ("Welcome to my house"), to classic Halloween sounds, to futuristic sounds.

I use this in my front yard by recording individual sounds on a cassette tape, seperated by 30 seconds of silence. Walk through my yard and you will hear a witch cackle, wolf howl, and evil laughs every so often.

It's true that some of the sound effects are not realistic or scary (wolves howling, spirits moaning). They are more 'theatrical' than realistic. Still, for the price and purpose, this is a good sound effects CD.
