Today we are looking at, the Halloween: Original Motion Picture Soundtrack (Expaned Edition) by John Carpenter, Cody Carpenter, and Daniel Davies. Released by Sacred Bones Records as catalog number SBR-231 in 2019. This is the limited edition Sacred Bones Record Society version, which included a mixtape released as catalog number SBRS-035.

The cover has this image of Michael Myers, with flame beneath. The back contains the tracklisting, and a bloody knife. Opening the gatefold reveals this artistic image.

Since this was included as part of the Sacred Bones Record Society, an insert is included to verify this.

A replacement mixtape with the proper dubbing was sent out to subscribers to correct this mistake.

This release contains two printed inner sleeves, with images of a pumpkin rotting in reverse, along with the tracklist for each side. The album is pressed on two blue with orange and black splatter, or ‘Bloody Jumpsuit’ LPs with the same pumpkin imagery on the labels for sides A, B, C, and D.
