Does anyone know the name of the tune that plays during the dance scene of this Silly Symphony?

That would be theme music from "Alfred Hitchock Presents" which was originally created by Carl Stallings for this cartoon.

I haven't seen "Hell's Bells" before, but the theme music to Alfred Hitchcock Presents was a tune called "Funeral March of a Marionette" (listen to a midi version here (http://home.gci.net/~glenn/funeral.mid)). It was a tune dating back to the late-1800s.
