Leigh Haggerwood Spooky Sounds Composer Interview

Lyle and Meghan welcome British composer and sound designer Leigh Haggerwood to The Halloween Podcast to explore something we hear every October but rarely stop to think about: the sounds that make Halloween spooky. Leigh has spent decades working professionally in music and sound, with credits across British television, live productions, commercials, and sound design, while also creating Halloween and horror soundscapes heard by listeners around the world.

From childhood trick-or-treating in London to creating imaginary haunted worlds entirely through sound, Leigh joins us for a fascinating conversation about the language of spooky audio, Britain’s centuries-old tradition of ghosts and folklore, reputedly haunted places, and how Halloween sound effects have evolved from physical records, cassettes, and CDs into the digital age.

25 days until Halloween!
