"Hunter's Moon" is a song by Swedish rock band Ghost. It was released on 30 September 2021 in support of the 2021 slasher film Halloween Kills; although it does not feature on the film's soundtrack, it plays over the end credits.[1] A music video for the song was released the same day.[2] On 20 January 2022, the band announced that the song was confirmed to be featured on their fifth studio album, Impera, which was released on 11 March 2022.[3]

Two versions of the song were recorded. The single version, released on 30 September 2021, was produced by Klas Åhlund and mixed by Andy Wallace, while a version featured in the end credits of Halloween Kills was produced by Rob Cavallo and Tom Dalgety and mixed by Doug McKean.

A 7" vinyl record containing the song and "Halloween Kills Main Title" was released alongside a limited edition orange 7" vinyl record on January 21, 2022. The latter release had both versions of "Hunter’s Moon".[4]

Background

According to Tobias Forge, Ryan Turek, a producer of the film Halloween Kills, asked him if he was interested in writing a song for the film. Forge said that he already had a few songs that might work, and specifically one song that could work very well within the concepts of the film.[5]
