This Haunted Halloween playlist follows Vivienne and Rhys from the shadow of a youthful curse through old heartbreak, eerie mishaps, and the possibility of rekindled love. Hushed gothic vocals and shadowy instrumental pieces lend Graves Glen a gently uncanny atmosphere without losing the story’s romantic warmth.
