The moon was bright above us
Giving little light for our sheet covered feet
Excited for the hocus pocus
And our much desired treats
All we had to do
Was finally meet
A dark and scary weirdo
Who lived down the street
The house was run down
Surely would give you a frown
The haunted windows
And the pillars with shadows
Making your skin crawl
With goose bumps
Trying not to bawl
With the thump… thump. Thump.
Of your fearful heart
Racing as you climbed the stairs
Reaching a sign that says enter if you dare
The spiders fall from cobwebs
Their eyes a terrible blood red
Ring the doorbell once it says
A treat awaits you it says
The ghoul that answers begs the differ
Be sure to call him mister
After that he'll load you down with snickers
Just watch out for the splinters
On the railing of course
Not the candy you dorks
Have fun in the night
May you delight in the fright
