- Halloween Zombies -

Passed the old church at midnight
Night time dark, damp and windy
Thoughts about coming home to a warm bed
Hear sounds from the bushes and trees
Glimpsing human shadows
They move slowly and very quiet
The wind comes against me with a rotten smell
The smell is indescribable nauseating
The lights of a car further down the street
gives me a cruel picture
Three human figures indented and rotting faces
Apathetic and dull but driven by the will to kill
The car is advancing by my side, the driver he knows he's seen it before
Zombies love this place at midnight
Never go here alone on the night of Halloween
< Stories of Zombies originated in the Afro Caribbean spiritual belief system of Vodoo, wooden publican of the people being controlled as laborers by a powerful wizard.>
Who has not heard of it ....
I can still smell the rotten smell
