''Samhain III: November-Coming-Fire'' was the band Samhain 's third release. It was issued in 1986 on lead singer Glenn Danzig 's independent record label, Plan 9 . It is considered by many fans to be the band's best piece of work, as they were evolving their own style of music, which was often described as Gothic Metal despite a lack of musical connections to the genre. It contains a re-recorded version of the Misfits' "Halloween II."

This was the last LP issued by the band during its existence, although some songs were recorded later for a planned follow-up LP to be called Samhain Grim, and these later found their way onto Final Descent .

This recording is marked by intense reverb, powerful vocals, and guitars treated with "chorus". As well as, what seems to be, a constant siren of sonorous feedback in the background. This sound was a staple in Samhain recordings, and most likely, came from Danzig's interest in the work of artists like Bauhaus and Alien sex fiend.

The album later inspired a band of the same name.
