The Unknown Demon of Halloween

Writhing, wriggly slimy maggots

weaving through her hair,

her black heart  the embodiment

of repulsion and despair



A malevolent wicked demon, 

many tales do foretell,

she’ll ravenously stalk you Halloween night

and drag you down to hell.



No-one knows her identity

but surrendering to fear,

most turn off lights and keep doors locked

when Halloween is near.



The blood of fresh kill gushes

as she’s feasting on her quest,

she’ll devour your brain, pick your bones

and throw away the rest.

.

She’s diabolically deceptive

her look she will disguise

this vicious, raging  evil will

paralyze you with her eyes.



So when venturing out on Halloween

Best keep her in mind

beware, take care... you never know

what mask she hides behind!
