Notes About The Poem

Haunted House By the Hill

In that haunted house by the hill 
where nobody now dares to dwell 
abides an spirit of such evil 
so great for you or me to get near 

So long ago in the days of yore 
a well-to-do family lived there 
their soul fed it with so much sin 
and debauchery they never did heed 

So they partied and made merry til' the end 
and unspeakable orgies there took place 
things that no decent soul would comtemplate 
in secrecy they smeared the town with all their filth 

But as everything must come to end be either good or bad 
so a very dark and forboding night they all went too far 
for in their debauchery and cruel games 
a deadly and final price did all of them have to pay 

Since then that night in this house by the hill 
horrible screams mixed with sobbings can be heard 
misterious noises that no one can ever explain 
and your blood will chill in your veins if you
ever dare to visit the haunted house by the hill.
