Scary Song

OK - this has probably been done a million times - but not in the last six months since I've been banging around here. . .

So, what songs do you find scary (not the way they were used in a movie - like "jeepers creepers" in, um, Jeeper Creepers) but do you actually think has a kind of horrorific/atmospheric/whatever. Here are my suggestions:

1) Rush - "Witch Hunt" off Moving Pictures - great opening with all the mob noises;
2) The entire Pink Floyd album Animals - I remember that thing scaring the shit out of me when I was younger and, uhm, herbally enhanced. . .
3) AC/DC Hell's Bells- clearly the song rocks, but I also think there is a menace in the opening guitar riff with the bell in the background.
4) Alice Cooper - Dead Babies - this one still kind of disturbs me. - but, at least "Dead babies can't pull things off the shelf. . ."

thoughts?
