Your reaction to the cover art is a clue to how you'll take these audio selections.  If you perceive this image as hokey and fake-scary, then that's what you'll likely feel about these tracks.  But if you're scared by the cover, you're probably the right level of naïveté to be spooked by the skits and music.
