On Halloween (October 31st) zombies will dance to music discs

This is a Michael Jackson "Thriller" reference. The actual song wouldn't be implemented, nor would the exact dance have to be, it's a small reference, nothing more. It's popular enough that the exact animation or song wouldn't be needed to get the reference. It wouldn't happen on hard or hardcore mode, since the act of dancing would probably involve them not attacking anyone during a disc song (which is fair on easy I think since easy is, well, easy. Normal too) In general this would also just add more personality to mobs. I get that zombies realistically wouldn't be intelligent enough to dance, but parrots can do it, so maybe it's not out of the question, on an exceptionally spooky day. Maybe it could also work on other undead too, since skeletons are basically just zombies with less meat on their bones, literally. Only undead in the overworld though, because the Nether is so spooky, the undead there probably don't dance (every day is scary in the Nether, so they don't love the "thrill" as much) also that's to keep the balance so the Nether is still dangerous on any difficulty.

    I really think this would add more personality to mobs. But, then Halloween wouldn't exactly be scary: it's the one day where you can just not worry about mobs. I'd suggest that they'd attack you still, but still while dancing, just to get the vibes.
