Watch Barack and Michelle Obama Dance to Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ for Halloween

President Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are not afraid to break it down — especially to spooky tunes during the White House’s annual Halloween party.

During the White House Halloween reception, the Obamas welcomed area students and children of military families for trick-or-treating and a brief dance to Michael Jackson’s “Thriller.”

“We’ve been working on a little dance. We don’t know how it’s going to go, but we think we should all just try it anyway,” Obama, dressed in his very best dad-sweater, said before getting the crowd ready.
