Bruce Springsteen may have canceled the annual Halloween bash and display at his New Jersey mansion, but he sure is making up to fans.

Springsteen has posted a free download of his song ‘A Night With The Jersey Devil‘.

The free track is a Halloween “treat” for fans, some of who might have been disappointed about the cancellation.

The singer also posted a short message on his site that read:

“Dear Friends and Fans,

If you grew up in central or south Jersey, you grew up with the “Jersey Devil.” Here’s a little musical Halloween treat. Have fun!”

Late last week we told you Springsteen and his wife Patti decided to cancel their annual Halloween event due to “concern for the safety of kids and parents” after the event became a “catastrophic success”.
