MONSTERS

MONSTERS Legends myths and old wives tales From T.V film and book, Are monsters real or fantasy Let’s take a closer look. Bram Stokers Dracula The original vampire name, Meant a simple walk just after dark Was never the same again. The late nineteenth century When his legend came to be, From a castle in Transylvania Across many lands and sea. A four hundred year old immortal From his coffin he will rise, His vampire teeth will drain your blood As he stares into your eyes. He will claim your soul as he consumes you On your body he will dine, An undead bride of Satan Count Dracula`s concubine. Sunlight at the break of dawn Or a stake right through his heart, Are the only ways to kill him Then this world he will depart. Then Dr Frankenstein and Igor A monster they did create, Seven foot tall and body parts They sealed their monsters fate. Grotesque cuts and stitches With bolts right through his neck, Sent villagers with pitch forks and torches To the castle for too wreck. The poor creature escaped the castle And in the windmill he was found, But the fear full villagers took no pity And burned him to the ground. To the tormented soul of the werewolf From a good man who was bitten, To a gypsy curse in the moonlight In a story that’s long since written. The full moon brings the beast to life As his body is broken and bent, Then he howls and claws in the darkness Then he sniffs with his nose for a scent. It will hunt you down with no mercy He can rip anybody apart, It can sense and smell your fear for miles It can hear the beat of your heart. The only way to kill it Is a silver bullet or a blade, To cleanse it`s soul and free it From its murderous tirade. We’ve got mummies warlocks and demons And the creeper who hunts you till June, Monsters of the deep and a shark called jaws And the creature from the black lagoon. We’ve got Dr Jekyll and MR Hyde Pin head goblins and elves, Norman Bates and Bigfoot And even the devil himself. There is penny wise and Freddy Krueger Who like get inside your head, Damien from the omen And zombies who rise from the dead. Sadako Yamamura with the long black hair She will crawl out from inside your telly, Invisible predators from outer space And aliens that burst out your belly. Michael Myers the boogie man He seems to feel no pain, Shoot him stab him burn him He just gets up again. A truly evil presence With his walk and frightening stare, His boiler suit and human mask With an unkempt head of hair. He killed dozens trying to reach the one His sister Laurie Strode, Murderous since the age of six In evil killer mode. There is only one way to escape Michael Even if you have a gun, Scream like hell and don’t look back And run run run. The headless horseman and the woman in black They would keep you up at night, Peeking out from the back of the couch Waiting on your next fright. King Kong and Godzilla They’ve laid New York to waste, Velociraptor and the T Rex Will make you move in haste. Then there is Jason Voorhees He`s indestructible as well, He wreaks havoc on Friday the thirteenth On his annual trip from hell. He kills them in camp Crystal Lake He`s even killed in space, He wears a pot holed hockey mask To hide his gruesome face. From old films to the new films We all like a good scare, Till it`s time to put the lights out And head of up the stair. Lying in the darkness With monsters in your head, Scared to go to the toilet In case something’s under the bed. Then you catch a glimpse of something In the corner of the room, Then you breathe a sigh of relief It`s just a red balloon. THE END.
