What guitar song "haunts" you the most

Kush

Years ago when I was still in my early teens, I watched a horror movie called Sleepwalkers. It was an adaptation of Stephen King's book by the same title. It was your typical 80's/ 90's horror movie, nothing to write home about. But it was the first time I would hear Johnny and Santo's Sleepwalk. That guitar just stuck with me, it is the one thing that, funny enough made that movie scary for me. That song just evoked this creepy ominous sense of tension whenever the movie cut to the next scene. Now almost than 20 years later, I still think its one of the most hauntingly beautiful tunes I have ever heard. (Joe Satriani did a cover of it but it doesnt capture it all) There is a definite link to the visual experience I was having when I first heard it, but perhaps for you guys its something else? What are your experiences?
Here is the song I am referring to:

my grandfather had a recording of andres segovia playing four suites by fernando sor; in A Major, G Major, B Minor, and A Major. i wouldn't exactly call it haunting music, but i loved it and my grandfather loved it.

so it's haunting, i guess

Sleepwalkers had a tune in from enya called boadicea ,that i remember was also quite ominous. And the fugees used it in a song again, ready or not, its quite a cool sounding thing

God I love this song, written by Hugh Prestwood

I don't pick up the mail
I don't pick up the phone
I don't answer the door
I'd just as soon be alone
I don't keep this place up
I just keep the lights down
I don't live in these rooms
I just rattle around

I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
As quietly as a mouse I haunt these halls
I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
You took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house

I don't care if it rains
I don't care if it's clear
I don't mind staying in
There's another ghost here
He sits down in your chair
And he shines with your light
And he lays down his head
On your pillow at night

I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm just a shadow upon these walls
I'm living proof of the damage
Heartbreak does
I'm just a whisper of smoke
I'm all that's left of two hearts on fire
That once burned out of control
And took my body and soul
I'm just a ghost in this house
Oh, I'm just a ghost in this house

I saw this when it first hit the big screen, and this song has never left me.

Wicked game by Chris Isaak and Sleepwalker ( the original one from back in the day )

Brothers in Arms. Must have listened to it a million times by now and it still pushes all my buttons in all the right places... :-[

A ten minute guitar solo I heard on HouseMD:

Otherwise I'll never forget the first time I listened to the Paris, Texas soundtrack & The End by The Doors.

+1's for Closer and Feelin' Bad Blues as well!

A classic. It's been haunting me since I was a child.

I was coming here to say Jeff Buckley's version of Hallelujah, but now I have to say it's a tie between Brothers in Arms and Hallelujah. Both songs send shivers down my spine.

I get goosebumps just thinking of Brothers in Arms.

I second that. We turned our sailboat into the proverbial aquatic boom box, Brothers in Arms rule at Deneysville
