"The Monster Mash" is a one-hit wonder traditionally heard around the time of Halloween. It was modified for use as a Sesame Street song, featuring The Count, Zoe and Telly Monster.
In this version of the song, The Count sings about how "I was counting my castle late one night / When my eyes beheld an eerie sight." His monster friends start doing the Mash, along with mummies, spiders and more. "1, 2, 3 zombies were having fun! / 4, 5, 6 goblins were on the run!" Even Herry and "Jackman Wolf" came in, as well as that rockin' trio "Two Ghouls and a Guy."
