Halloween Special With John Carpenter

Stuart is joined by director and composer John Carpenter for a Freaky Halloween special, featuring scary scores, creepy compositions and terrifying tunes. Don't get scared now.

Stuart heads out to explore the darkest corners of freaky music, with director and composer John Carpenter for our All Hallows Eve special, featuring music from film and TV as well as spine tingling compositions from around the world. John's hypnotic theme to his 1978 horror masterpiece Halloween has embodied slasher-stalker anxiety for generations of film goers, and over the next two hours, we shine a light on his work, find out what's lurking in the shadows and unearth some horrifying gems. So sit down, settle in... and don't get scared.
