This is the song that plays near a passive group of otter folk in EverQuest, but I turned it into a medley of memes and other themes. It starts with a fakeout: the midi steel drums have been replaced with the ones from “Crank That” by Soulja Boy, followed by the snaps, and Soulja Boy’s voice, before returning to the midi steel drums playing the Nutshack theme. The other segments, in order are: Meet the Flintstones, Megalovania, Gangplank Galleon, Haunted House, Snow Halation, Bloody Tears, U Guessed It, Go My Way, Pokemon Go Song, SMB3 Overworld, Gourmet Race, Axel F, U.N. Owen Was Her?, Cruel Angel’s Thesis, the Simpsons, the EverQuest theme, Green Hill Zone, and SMW Overworld. The song ends with the notes from Crank That.

K.K. House – Animal Crossing: City Folk
This is a bait and switch, where following the intro, a K.K. Slider cover of Haunted House plays. The joke is simply that “House” is in the title. K.K. Slider covers make up a huge part of my Youtube channel, so not only was I excited to cover Haunted House in the style of a live K.K. performance, but I was finally able to contribute a K.K. cover for SiIvaGunner. Rather than modify an existing MIDI, I built this arrangement from the ground up, and tried to come up with a unique, but believable K.K. Slider sound for each instrument in Haunted House.
Castle Boss – New Super Mario Bros. Wii
This is the theme that plays when fighting a boss in New Super Mario Bros. Wii, but the main lead has been replaced with Haunted House. Castle Boss is the alternate title of Haunted House, found within the NSF header information, which is the entire basis of this rip. This is the first Haunted House mashup on the channel, as opposed to being a melody swap, bait and switch, or sequenced arrangement.
Dark Castle (Neon Laboratory) – Kirby Planet Robobot
This is actually just Haunted House, pitch corrected to the Puzzle Room theme from Kirby Planet Robobot. Puzzle Room was a recurring meme on the channel, which was commonly used to troll the fans. Since Haunted House was my attempt at trolling the fans, I combined the two songs, and picked a different title from the Planet Robobot soundtrack with the word “Castle” in it. This may have been one of my more mean-spirited jokes, as fans were actually hoping for a rip of Dark Castle. I would later try to make it up to the fans by submitting a different rip.
Creepy Castle Boss – Donkey Kong 64
This is the theme that plays when you fight King Kut Out in Donkey Kong 64, but the melody and chords have been replaced with Haunted House. This is the first Haunted House rip to be more than just a bait-and-switch or midiswap. The joke is that “Castle Boss” is in the title, which is the alternate name for Haunted House.
