Song "Enter Sandman"
I used this classic metal song with my teen students. It was the starting point on a lesson where we talked about fears and phobias. When students are a bit older, they can talk about their childhood fears and it is a great opportunity to practise speaking (mainly for ESL/EFL). It may also be useful to talk about literature and fantasy characters.

AWESOME Greek mythology song (superb "hook")
This is the best and most engaging "hook" for any unit involving teaching Greek mythology to teenagers that you will ever find. SAMPLE PREVIEW VERSES:
For instance, the story of Cronus is strange:
He murders his father and becomes deranged.
After marrying his sister Rhea for fun,
He eats all his children – all except one.
Zeus escapes swallowing and one day comes home –
Cronus pukes up the five kids, now fully grown –
Then Zeus kills his dad, sealing Cronus’ fate.
Murder, incest, and cannibalis
