I think I would like to hear Dan Brown's: The Lost Symbol
ReplyDelete1984 by George Orwell, i just think hearing about a dead future and a dead past through a skull is some how fitting
ReplyDelete"Hamlet" by Shakespeare.

ReplyDeleteNeil Gaiman's M is for Magic....
ReplyDeleteMy guess, Servant of the Bones by Anne Rice or maybe Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut.
ReplyDeleteemail is tonto@bex.net or thru etsy.com/johnnynothumbzzz
Of course a skull would love to listen to Skulls, an audio book about his friends.
ReplyDeleteIt would be Treasure Island me thinks!!! Ye old classics never die, ya rekon??? Aye me hardees!! YO HO!!!!!

or for the skulls music pleasure, some AFP, with Who KIlled Amanda Palmer.
I think they'd listen to The Haunted Mansion or The Shining, of course! Who wouldn't?
ReplyDeleteWell of course "Skulls by Noah Scalin"
ReplyDeleteSlaughterhouse V... very skully.
ReplyDeleteHamlet, of course! Where else does a skull get so much attention?
ReplyDeleteStephen King's Dreamcatcher (just got in on a 20 cd set :) )
ReplyDeleterhonnyreaper@yahoo.com
Terry Pratchett's 'Reaper Man' would be favorite - and one of mine, too!
ReplyDeleteI ar tigerbay(at)northwestel(dot)net
Perhaps "The Tell-Tale Heart", by Edgar Allen Poe.
ReplyDeleteI think that The Book Thief, which is narrated by "Death" would be an appropriate choice for these skull-icious earbuds.
ReplyDeletehderaps@mtbluersd.org
As Simple As Snow. Its a good book. I don't think a skull would care much to hear about other skulls anyway...Assuming he wants to hear a story in the first place we can conclude that he is sentient. Generally, most skulls in literature have no such quality! So what comfort would he find in reading of other dissimilar, lifeless and dull bones?...Yeah, he would want to hear something a little thought-provoking instead, I think. :)
ReplyDeletegood omens by gaiman and pratchet
ReplyDeletechoke.
ReplyDeleteamber.rieger@gmail.com
To me a skull represents what we are when all of our pretense is stripped away. I think a skull would like to listen to confessional poetry and journals read by Sylvia Plath.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Leann and think Poe's work would be a skull favorite. Though if a winner, I'll be listening to BoneJovi with them.
ReplyDelete"The Great & Secret Show" by Clive Barker
ReplyDeleteA Dirty Job by Christopher Moore, naturally.
ReplyDeleteI think they'd listen to any of the Terry Pratchett novels, especially those dealing with Death hisself.
ReplyDeletethey would listen to the audio book version of...Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull!
ReplyDeleteOzzy Osbourne's new book " i am ozzy" these headphone's would go with the price of darkness words of wisdom ..if you could understand what he says...
ReplyDeletewar of the worlds...and the music of rob zombie of course =)
ReplyDeleteamydhull(at)gmail(dot)com
I think it would listen to something by Kathy Reichs.
ReplyDeleteAny skull would enjoy the Joe Pitt series by Charlie Huston. Pulp-noir at its finest!
ReplyDeletelisa@badbabyart.com
PS - I the Morbid King buds are especially AWESOME!
hamlet
ReplyDeleteThe Necronomicon, of course !!! I mean, what skull wouldn't enjoy a nice audio book of the means for summoning the Old Ones?
ReplyDeleteThe Exorcist, as read by the author-- that's some scary stuff! Much more intense than the movie, which I didn't even know was possible.
ReplyDeletelemonwitch@hotmail.com
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman, I think. Actually...probably nearly anything by Gaiman ;)
ReplyDeletedisturbedenough@hotmail.com
The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman. Actually...probably anything by Gaiman.

Stephen King's Bag of Bones
ReplyDeleteI would listen to American Gods by Neil Gaiman. Because he is one if the best writers out there.

Guillermo Del Toro & Chuck Hogan's The Strain
ReplyDelete"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies." Every skull should listen to that book!
ReplyDeletea skull, huh? well, isnt it the bones of a human? sooooooo...wouldnt it be listening to whatever the human chooses? XD
ReplyDeleteSkulls would listen to Edgar Allan Poe's "Tell-tale Heart" or "The Pit and the Pendulum".
ReplyDeleteThese two stories invoke strong themes concerning the sanctity of life and the resultant dilemma of what is death like and what is means to take a life.
Obviously have to go with the philosophical, since when you are dead, you got all the time you want to think.....despite that there is no brain left in your head.

The Statement of Randolph Carter
ReplyDeleteby H. P. Lovecraft most definitely
"Again I say, I do not know what has become of Harley Warren, though I think--almost
hope--that he is in peaceful oblivion, if there be anywhere so blessed a thing. It is true
that I have for five years been his closest friend, and a partial sharer of his terrible
researches into the unknown. I will not deny, though my memory is uncertain and
indistinct, that this witness of yours may have seen us together as he says, on the
Gainsville pike, walking toward Big Cypress Swamp, at half past 11 on that awful night.
That we bore electric lanterns, spades, and a curious coil of wire with attached
instruments, I will even affirm; for these things all played a part in the single hideous
scene which remains burned into my shaken recollection."

ReplyDeleteSkeleton Crew by Stephen King! tWarner419@aol.com
ReplyDeleteI will stray from my normal response of anything by Edgar Allan Poe and say listening to Clive Barker's Mister B Gone would be perfect.
ReplyDeleteemail -mark.mihalko(at)comcast
I would be totally disappointed if someone didn't mention "Get In The Van" by Henry Rollins. He is a GREAT story teller.
ReplyDeleteI think they would like to listen to The Halloween Tree by Ray Bradbury.
ReplyDeleteH.P. Lovecraft's Call of Cthulu, followed by Metallica's Call of Cthulu.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was The Graveyard Book. Other suggestions include The Necronomicon, Creepy Suzie, and anything by Edward Gorey
ReplyDeleteTales of Terror from Edgar Allan Poe.
ReplyDeletemy email is ladymeta@gmail.com

The Monkeys Paw. I just read it and can imagine the figure at the door with a skull & zombie-like appearance.
ReplyDeleteI think George Carlin's "Brain Droppings" would be appropriate for that foramen magnum. Or, for the more refined skull, Alighieri's "Divina Commedia."
ReplyDeleteYou can reach me at Chroshere@aol.com
Any skull would love to read Stephen King's short story "The Body"... I think.
ReplyDeleteH. P. Lovecraft's collected works.
ReplyDeletekozytartan@gmail.com
Why, "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold of course!
ReplyDeletesiddownshaddup@yahoo.com
Hey, you can call me a dweeb, but Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince would be the perfect great book to listen to with the skull earphones.
ReplyDeleteMy first thought was also the Necronomicon but since that has been suggested maybe a close second albeit a much less fun title would be "On Death and Dying"
ReplyDeleteby Elisabeth Kubler-Ross
Skeleton Crew by Stephen King.
ReplyDeleteemail: dark_one69@hotmail.com
I would have to say Clive Barkers Cabal, just because it is one of my favorite Barker stories.

A skull would be perfectly happy listening to 'The Strain' by Guillermo Del Toro and Chuck Hogan. Listening to this book through a set of skulls is the way it should be.

ReplyDeletemrsradu@yahoo.com
I think the would enjoy A Punisher audio book.
ReplyDeleteUnknowntepes@aol.com
How about my own audiobook that was released a few years ago, HOLY ROLLERS? It's a disturbing tale that asks, "What if those pesky door-to-door evangelists showed up on your front porch one day . . . but then they absolutely refused to leave until you had listened to their 'Good Word'? What if they carried guns, a straight-razor . . . and something even scarier, locked up in a black leather briefcase?"

Night on Bald Mountain, or Phillip Glass' Orphee. Or even Damnation de Faust. Something strong and powerful, from hell itself.
ReplyDeleteI think she would like to listen to Dante's "La Divina Commedia" - in Italian, of course.

ReplyDeleteMaybe they would listen too the worm song, "The worms crawl in, the worms crawl out, into your stomache and out your mouth. "
ReplyDeleteMy skulls would be curious skulls. They'd listen to "The Archaeology of Death and Burial" by Parker Pearson, and then follow up with something like "Dead Men Do Tell Tales" by William Maples. After that they might start talking back!
ReplyDelete"The Silence of the Lambs" by Thomas Harris
ReplyDeleteI believe a Skull would find the face transplant quite amusing.

ReplyDeleteI am actually going to go with two books, Choke, and Wicked. To amazing books, perfect for a skull to get more educated on himself lol
ReplyDeleteMost definately, "A Dirty Job," by Christopher Moore.
