Scenes of Boogiemen and Vampires
Night is suffocating with lots of fear
Scenes of boogiemen and vampires quite near
A haunted house sits on top of a hill
Where spiders scatter about on the sill
A single light is lit in upstairs room
Looking frightful as if to spell some doom
Lightning flashes to reveal a graveyard
Where the dead lives again in his backyard
The pathway up to the dark front entrance
Is littered with Jack-O-Lanterns that dance
There are snakes that wait for one to walk by
So they can strike at him, cause him to die
The whole land smells of great fear and of fright
Bad place to visit on Halloween night
