The Dream Snatcher

A storm's raging in the realm of Daga
Coachman pulls his horses to halt
There stood a castle with gargoyles spouting water
While rain poured cats and dogs 
          
From a Royal carriage descends a passenger
Cloaked head down to his feet
An owl was terrified of seeing him,flew off instantly
  
At the crack of thunder, bats came rushing out the halls
A dark shadow appeared at the door, and made a trolling call
“Dreaded day to you My Lord,”  this way to den 
"Dream Snatcher" was trapped in a mirror
As King cobra slid pass and went
   
 The Devil removed his cloak, and the incantations commenced
 “Dream Snatcher you are hereby summoned to snatch dreams of children 
 I command! Away with dreams and frighten them...
 Scare them with blood sucking vampires, soul eaters, and ugly ghouls
 Let no child escape, the dreamless fate that will ensue"
                
"Come forth and honor me
Bow down on your knees
And the Demon chanted
"Ra-Ra- Daga-Daga-Dunga, By the powers of darkness come forth from the mirror, Ra-pa-pa" 

Out of the mirror came a blinding streak of light 
The Dream Snatcher was set loose to spread havoc at his delight

Then Lucifer spoke to the Thunder God of sky

" I'm sending out this warning to children everywhere
Look in the corners of your rooms and under your beds
Up at ceilings or maybe somewhere in your heads
Watch out! Who's that there? He's coming for you"
                   
The Dream Snatcher is here...

Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha, Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!"

I like the story it's like a Halloween story. It even better than the vampire fantasy poem I wrote. I wonder if you read it. Tell me what you think if you do read.
