This week’s show is the final frightful installment of Gothtober 2026. We hope you love this episode to death… Many are aware that we record in a refurbished fire house, but did you know that in the mid-1900s the original fire house burned to the ground? What ghosts lurk within the dark corridors and surrounding grounds where the new fire house sits? Listen to some haunting rock n’ punk n’ metal, and prepare to be creeped out, disturbed, and perhaps titillated. Happy Halloween, everyone!

What is it we do here at InObscuria? In the beginning, good always overpowered the evils of all man's sins... But in time the nations grew weak, and our cities fell to slums while evil stood strong. In the dusts of hell, lurked the blackest of hates. For he whom they feared awaited them... Now many many lifetimes later lay destroyed beaten down and only the corpses of rebels, ashes of dreams, and bloodstained streets remain... It has been written "Those who have the youth, have the future". So, come now children of the beast; be strong and shout at the devil!

This week, we bring you the 3rd and final volume of “Grave Mistakes: They Shoulda Been Huge!!!” from a band we’ve covered in past Gothtobers. Another in-depth exploration of a perennial Halloween favorite for us: the frightfully amazing HELLOWEEN! This German band has had a lasting impact on Kevin, but how will Robert react now that he's seen the power of metaling pumpkins live in concert?

This episode is rooted in our Should Have Been category. This is a band that we have featured on the show several times over the years and is the end of our trilogy of deep dives. A German band that helped establish the metal genre known as, “Power Metal”. Unfortunately, their brilliance and innovation have never fully been recognized to the degree that it deserves. We think they SHOULD BE HUGE… and we are ready to fly that banner proudly!

Songs this week include:

1. Helloween - “Starlight” from Helloween - EP (1985)

2. Helloween - “Ride The Sky” from Walls Of Jericho (1985)

3. Helloween - “Judas” from Judas - EP (1986)

4. Helloween - “Future World” from Keeper Of The Seven Keys: Part I (1987)

5. Helloween - “Eagle Fly Free” from Keeper Of The Seven Keys: Part II (1988)

6. Helloween - “Heavy Metal Hamsters” from Pink Bubbles Go Ape (1991)

7. Helloween - “Victim Of Fate” from The Best, The Rest, The Rare (1991)

8. Helloween - “Step Out Of Hell” from Chameleon (1993)

This week, we succumb to the lunar spell and bark at the moon! What starts as a couple of buddies recording a podcast out in the woods of an Atlanta suburb, quickly becomes a life altering event after a scuffle with a wolf-like creature. Listen in as they take a furry bite out of songs, bands, or albums pertaining to the WOLF. Songs that howl and wail under the pale moonlight. Scratch that itch, and join our pack for week #3 of Gothtober!

We thought it would be a good idea to sit around the campfire and enjoy the crisp Gothtober air, but once the air felt (and sounded) like a hot breath we decided to head back inside. Did we make it in time to avoid being an evening snack? Listen in and find out! Somehow, we still managed to record a show and bring you a collection of tunes from the broad spectrum of rock, punk, and metal. Our hope is that we turn you on to something that was lost on your ears, or something you've simply forgotten about, or that (in our opinion) should have been the next big thing.

Songs this week include:

1. Wolfsbane – “Fell Out Of Heaven” from Live Fast, Die Fast (1989)

2. A Pale Horse Named Death – “Meet The Wolf” from And Hell Will Follow Me (2011)

3. Wolf – “At The Graveyard” from The Black Flame (2006)

4. Red Sea – “Wolves At The Door” from Blood (1994)

5. Wolves At Bay – “Tried To Fix” from When I’m Dead (2014)

6. The Young Wolf – “My Sweet Mary Jane” from My Sweet Mary Jane - Single (2016)

7. Type O Negative – “Wolf Moon (Including Zoanthropic Paranoia)” from October Rust (1996)

8. Splinter – “Werewolves Of London” from Punk Rock Halloween, Vol. 2: Louder, Faster & Scarier (2019)
