Bringing Fear

In a dark cottage There’s an old witch That boils a potion The cauldron bubbles over itself Wafting smell about the room Near the elixir Sits a Jack-O-Lantern Light glows inside There are shelves That hold some ingredients Some are still alive Candles still burn eerily Casting long shadows about The witch has use Of everything that’s here To bring fear this night
