    Just in time for Halloween!

    What are some songs in the country genre you could almost call psychedelic or even psychotic due to either crazy atmospherics, subject matter, or just for being weird in general?

    This one gets my vote!



    What are some others?

    Bobby Bare's lone country #1 hit, "Marie Laveau," is a Halloween classic.

    Does "Dueling Banjos" count? I'm sure it creeps out Ned Beatty.
