In the spirit of Halloween, we’ve put together a list of what we think are the spookiest guitar parts of all time. It’s hard to pin down what exactly makes a guitar riff “spooky”, but these all seem to nail the vibe pretty well. The riffs in this lesson go from pretty recognizable to hauntingly obscure, so be ready for a few surprises!

One important thing to note is that a few of these guitar riffs are going to require you to put your guitar into alternate tunings. So make sure you’ve got your tuner handy! You’ll find the necessary tuning information above the sheet music for the relevant songs. All right, Ayla and Kent are in costume, and it’s time to get into the ten spookiest guitar parts of all time!
