There was a song on a 70s novelty album (mostly 50-60s songs) I had that sounded something like that. I thought it had a name like “March of the ghouls” or something but its not any of the ones with similar names on YouTube. The telephone ringing wasnt there and there was a jazzy guitar bit that sounded like something, many somethings, approached and passed by into the distance. I have to almost think that it was an inspiration even if they didnt remember it.
