BOBBY PICKETT’S 1962 hit ‘Monster Mash’ is getting its annual airing during Halloween season.
The song is a spoof on the Twist and Mashed Potato dance crazes, which were massively popular at the time.
The novelty number was fortuitously created after Pickett began imitating horror icon Boris Karloff – who starred as Frankenstein’s monster in hit films during the 1930s – with an off-the-cuff monologue that proved popular with audiences.
It’s gone on to become a Halloween classic. But how much do you know about it?
