Whether you’re putting together a Halloween party playlist, getting ready for a costume celebration or simply looking for music to match the spooky season, here are five Tejano music videos worth adding to your rotation.

Five Tejano Music Videos for Halloween

Lucky Joe – “Zombie”

Lucky Joe brings Halloween to life — or perhaps back from the dead — with his norteño cumbia single “Zombie.”

The music video features Lucky Joe portraying an undead character wandering through haunting scenes and chilling surroundings. Beneath the spooky concept, the song explores lost love, emotional turmoil and the emptiness that can linger after heartbreak.

With its infectious rhythm, creative storytelling and Halloween-inspired visuals, “Zombie” remains a perfect addition to any Tejano Halloween playlist.

Jess Lopez – “La Llorona Empieza Aullar”

Grammy Award-winning artist Jess Lopez puts a Tejano twist on one of Mexico’s most recognizable supernatural legends with “La Llorona Empieza Aullar.”

Inspired by Bobby “Boris” Pickett’s classic “Monster Mash,” the song brings a Mexican cultural perspective to the Halloween favorite.

Produced and directed by Lopez alongside videographer Lupe Moya, the music video delivers a spooky yet playful tribute to La Llorona, the legendary weeping woman whose haunting cries have frightened generations.

Nikki Lopez – “Voy Por Tu Corazón”

Tejano pop artist Nikki Lopez adds a little witchcraft and musical magic with “Voy Por Tu Corazón.”

The upbeat cumbia was produced by Grammy Award-winning producers Wild Bill Perkins and Hugo Guerrero, bringing a modern sound to a Halloween-inspired musical concept.

Directed by Lupe Moya of LM Media Solutions, the video features colorful visuals and a witchy aesthetic that gives the song its own spooky-season personality.

Miguel St. Michael – “Halloween y La Cumbia”

Austin-based Tejano and Latin artist Miguel St. Michael brings together music, Mexican folklore and Halloween traditions with “Halloween y La Cumbia.”

Inspired by the Tex-Mex legends he grew up hearing in the Rio Grande Valley, the song features supernatural characters including La Llorona, La Bruja and El Cucuy.

Miguel described the musical concept as a fusion of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” the whimsical eeriness of filmmaker Tim Burton and a splash of Fito Olivares‘ “La Cobra.”

The result is a Halloween-inspired cumbia that combines spooky storytelling with an irresistible dance-floor rhythm.

Grupo Entrego – “El Cucuy”

West Texas group Grupo Entrego joins the Halloween music lineup with its spooky cumbia single and music video, “El Cucuy.”

Written by Jose Luis Garcia and produced by Erick Martinez, the Spanish-language track combines live instrumentation, including saxophone, drums and rhythmic guitar, with a festive Halloween atmosphere.

The music video was filmed at Moss Creek Ranch in Big Spring, Texas. Directed and produced by award-winning filmmaker Ryan Bazan, the visual features a backyard Halloween celebration with guests dancing in colorful Día de los Muertos-inspired masks.

The combination of cumbia, salsa influences and saxophone gives “El Cucuy” a distinctive sound that makes it a natural addition to this year’s Halloween festivities.
