Scariest Castlevania songs

When I think of scary music in these games one thing has always been a mainstay. The fadeout.
I really see a deviation from Castlevanias of the past musically and theme wise. It is a horror game for better or worse, not just an action game although that is one of the forms this series has taken on over the years.

With that said, what are (in your opinion) the scariest Castlevania songs?

For me (in no patickler ordah)

Title Screen for SCIV
Start and password for CVII
Heart of Fire CVI
Etude for the Killer CV Chronicles
Nightmare for CVIII Japan
Within These Castle walls CVII
Poison Mind CVI
In the Villa CV64
Meeting Dracula the first time in CV64
Door of Holy Spirits SOTN
Any boss theme from CVIV
Stalker CVI
Creature of the Depths CV Chronicles
Dracula rises from grave SCIV (great soundtrack)

Stop me if you've heard this one.
A Belmont falls through a trap door into a square prison with no exits. After hitting three sides he smashes through the last one. Relieved and low on health he looks at the camera, smiles and says......"Pork chop?"
ULTIMATE FOURTH WALL BREAK!!! That just happened!!!

I agree the villa's music from CV64 is one of the scariest songs (by the way the song is titled "silent madness").  I also think that the music from the tunnel stage with Reinhart in CV64 is scary too.

The CV songs that always evoke a sense of uneasiness and scariness to me are:

Intro for SCIV
Password for CVII
Villa from C64 (Specially at first when the dogs come out)

Wandering the Crystal blue. Very very beautiful, but scary in that stage  ;)

Curse Zone, to me, is the scariest song of any Castlevania game.

I remember the intro to Simon's Quest scaring me as a kid. We lived in an old house, and I had to play it upstairs alone. The night music from that game was kind of scary, too, and helped with the day/night contrast a lot.
It's like Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, but instead it's Who Wants Fried Chicken? I do.
