Robert Fripp and Toya Willcox debuted a Halloween version of their Sunday Lunch series over the weekend. In the video, the couple performs a cover of David Bowie’s classic song “Scary Monsters (and Super Creeps).”

In addition to the makeup, Toya wears a black jacket with nothing underneath and sings a song from 1980 while Fripp plays guitar. The video ends with Robert saying in a creepy voice, “Welcome to Toya and Robert’s Scary Sunday Lunch” as Toya playfully kisses the prog rock pioneer on the head.

New episodes of the Sunday Lunch series are few and far between these days, but Toya and Robert offered fun covers of The Stooges’ “Search and Destroy,” Blink-182’s “Dammit,” “(You Gotta) Fight for Your Right (To Party)” and KISS’s “Lick It Up,” among other songs, over the past year.
