GHOST Reveals Video for New Song ‘Hunter’s Moon’

Swedish heavy rockers GHOST have released a new video for the song called “Hunter’s Moon”. The track, which was produced by Klas Åhlund and mixed by Andy Wallace, is featured in the latest blockbuster installment of the legendary film franchise “Halloween Kills”. The “Halloween Kills” soundtrack is set to arrive October 15 via Sacred Bones, with the film hitting theaters (and Peac**k) the same day as well.

A series of inspired encounters between creative forces from various worlds of sound and vision has resulted in “Hunter’s Moon”, the infectious first new track from GHOST since 2019’s “Seven Inches Of Satanic Panic”, and its phantasmagoric video directed by Amanda Demme.

The genesis of “Hunter’s Moon” can be traced back to GHOST‘s November 16, 2018 show at the Forum in Los Angeles. Ryan Turek, vice president of feature film development at Blumhouse Productions (“Get Out”, “Insidious”, “The Purge”, “Us”, “Whiplash”) attended the sold-out show, striking up an instant rapport with GHOST‘s mastermind Tobias Forge — one that developed quickly and deeply via meetings, podcast appearances, and ultimately a visit with co-writer and director David Gordon Green on the North Carolina set of the upcoming “Halloween Kills”.

Three years nearly to the day since that first fateful exchange, GHOST‘s “Hunter’s Moon” has materialized on DSPs, will play as the “Halloween Kills” end credits roll, and will be released January 21, 2022 as a collectible seven-inch single by Loma Vista Recordings. “Hunter’s Moon” can be streamed, purchased, and/or pre-ordered in its vinyl incarnation. The retail version of the seven-inch will feature the special B-side “Halloween Kills (Main Title)”, performed, produced and engineered by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter and Daniel Davies.

“Hunter’s Moon” features OPETH‘s Fredrik Åkesson on guitar and THE SOUNDTRACK OF OUR LIVES founder Martin Hederos on the piano. Producer Max Grahn and “A Ghoul Writer” are listed as the song’s composers and lyricists.

Earlier this month, GHOST announced a 26-date co-headlining U.S. arena tour with VOLBEAT and special guests TWIN TEMPLE, coming to cities including Seattle, Denver, Chicago, Houston, and Phoenix.
