Halloween is the third public album by the group Two Steps from Hell, released in September 2012. The album contains 48 tracks,[1] written by composers Thomas J. Bergersen and Nick Phoenix.[2] All the tracks, apart from To Die on Halloween, are from prior demonstration albums previously only available to the industry.[3] This is their first public album to feature tracks with English vocals.

It was Two Step from Hell's first themed album, which they described as "spooky music... the ultimate Halloween party soundtrack.", and others as "paying homage to the horror genre". However, the group did not consider it one of their "major" releases; their next, SkyWorld, was released just a month later.[3]
