You can use quarter tones.  You can even try microtones.  But you'll
need to select an instrument that would play it in a reasonable way,
legato and with consistent loudness.

For example, this "glissando" sounds so scary, you may want to use it
for Halloween :)

\version "2.16.0"

melody = \relative c' {
  \tempo 4=400
  \set Staff.midiInstrument = "Choir Aahs"
  c4 cih cis cisih
  d dih dis disih
  e eih
  f fih fis fisih
  g gih gis gisih
  a aih ais aisih
  b bih
  c
}

\score {
  \new Staff {
    \melody
  }
  \layout{}
  \midi{}
}
