That creepy old Halloween sound effects record that my teacher would play in elementary school

I cannot find any information about an old vinyl record (can't remember if it was a 7" or LP) with a bunch of Halloween sound effects. I know we would listen to it in school (so it existed around the late 1970s and early '80s).

I want to hear it again just for the sound of Martians eating the bones of an astronaut. That always freaked me out the most.

Does anyone know what I'm talking about? Any vinyl hounds that could track it down? MP3s? As far as I can remember it is not a Disney produced record.

Answer:

It is a Disney produced record, called "Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House." Haunted Dimensions has great pictures of the jacket, liner notes and label.

The Martian track you're thinking of is the last track on the first side called "The Martian Monsters."

Now that we found this old record (first produced in 1964 and later in the Seventies) how do we get our hands on it in time for Halloween? You can find it new on Amazon for $40 (as our helpful commenter mentioned). But your best bet is the iTunes Store.
