Grammy-winning Swedish metal band Ghost will play Lubbock's City Bank Auditorium Thursday, Oct. 27 just in time to start a long Halloween weekend.

Papa Emeritus III and his Nameless Ghouls will likely make quite a stir in Lubbock due to their look. They've allegedly ran into problems finding backup singers and many groups have criticized the band's costumes and statements about religion.

But they absolutely melt face, and FMX is excited to welcome Ghost to Lubbock.
