  • "The Haunted House" - Mickey Mouse

    Try watching this video with the sound OFF. Then go back and watch it again, this time with the sound ON. WOW! What a difference a little music and sound effects makes - with sound, you can feel the same kinds of feelings Mickey feels as he explores this haunted house. BOO!

  • The Skeleton Dance (1929)

    This early Disney Cartoon uses sound to enhance the black & white pictures, and to grab your feelings and take them on a spooky ride! If you don't believe me, try watching this video with the sound off. It just isn't the same, is it? That's what it was like in the days of silent movies!

  • Synchronized Halloween Light Show - "Best of Michael Jackson"

    Notice the synchronized movements on the keyboard and guitar in this show! Look at the R.I.P. headstones - can you identify times when they are moving to the beat, other times when they are flashing a rhythm, and times when they are moving to the bass line of the music?
