(A 1997 self-titled release covered multiple mainstream genres.) Their music is commonly used to provide atmosphere in Halloween haunted houses.
Formation
Composer Edward Douglas created Midnight Syndicate in 1996. In 1998, fellow composer Gavin Goszka joined the group and they have since released several critically acclaimed gothic horror soundtracks. As the standard for the Halloween and Haunted Attraction industries, Midnight Syndicate's music is heard throughout the Halloween season - everywhere from Universal Studios Orlando and Paramount and Six Flags theme parks to countless haunted attractions and homes across America. In addition to being featured in X-Box games, films, and television shows as diverse as Barbara Walters’ specials and Monday Night Football, the band recently developed a soundtrack for the classic roleplaying game Dungeons & Dragons. In 2005, they released their seventh CD entitled The 13th Hour.
