The darkness on this night

And my sense on edge,

The chills and the goosebumps

And the hairs are prickling

Upon the back of my neck,

Alert me frightening realisation

That something is not right tonight.

I sense movement in the corners

But I really can’t be sure,

Was there something lurking

It’s hard to feel reassured,

I hear the creaking of floorboards

A knocking on the walls,

I thought I saw something appear

At the window but maybe not,

My mind is playing tricks on me

Sure that’s true as I am in Salem’s Lot.

It’s Halloween so what did I really expect

It’s a night where many are on edge,

Though kids playing outside

I can hear them as they trick or treat,

I move to the doorway to see

Then something suddenly grips me,

And I am pulled down through the floorboards

And I spy the evilest demon ,

And I know, that’s the end of me

I become another lost soul

On all Hallows Eve.
