Fright Night in the Sixties
In the sixties every single Friday evening was TV fright night
We preteens sat in front of the screen with friends, terrified all right
What we saw was in gray scale, black and white, but truly horribly scary
alien kidnappers from another dimension grabbing us and our Uncle Harry
we stayed awake hours after the show went off the air, which it did.
I still remember these amazing slumber party opportunities I had as a kid.
Our cousin Lou came over to watch, wearing her PJs under clothes
We invited her to stay all night to watch TV which scared us to our toes.
