Sound Effects No. 13 – Death & Horror is an album produced by Mike Harding of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and released in 1977 by BBC Records & Tapes. It is the thirteenth instalment in the label's Sound Effects series and contains over 80 sound effects related to horror and death, so that producers may use them in amateur film and stage productions. Mike Harding and label staff man Ian Richardson picked numerous "classics" from the BBC Effects Library and from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, but also created many new sound effects for the album themselves, many of which were created by "mistreating large white cabbages." The effects are arranged throughout the album into six distinct themed sections.

| - "It is important to remember that this is the latest in a series of sound-effects albums we are putting out for a specific market of amateur dramatics and home movie people. It is not just something put out for a laugh. We had many requests for eerie and horrific effects for stage thrillers." (en)

| - Sound Effects No. 13 – Death & Horror is an album produced by Mike Harding of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop and released in 1977 by BBC Records & Tapes. It is the thirteenth instalment in the label's Sound Effects series and contains over 80 sound effects related to horror and death, so that producers may use them in amateur film and stage productions. Mike Harding and label staff man Ian Richardson picked numerous "classics" from the BBC Effects Library and from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, but also created many new sound effects for the album themselves, many of which were created by "mistreating large white cabbages." The effects are arranged throughout the album into six distinct themed sections. The original release was pressed onto a black vinyl that changed to a translucent blood red colour when held up to strong light. Upon release, the album drew controversy regarding its violent content, especially from anti-obscenity campaigner Mary Whitehouse, who criticised what she felt was an "utter lack of responsibility" on behalf of the BBC. While this meant the album was briefly pulled from sale, it soon returned to stock, and the controversy encouraged it to sell some 20,000 extra copies, making it the first sound effects album to chart within the Top 100 of the UK Albums Chart. The album has been described as one of BBC Records' most memorable releases and writers have described its sounds as sounding authentic. It was re-released as a "blood-splattered" vinyl LP by Demon Records in 2016. Two sequels to the album had also been released in 1978 and 1981. (en)
