Best Terrifying Poems

Original limerick  written by Jan Allison


A petite ballerina named Tina
Seemed serene but she couldn’t be meaner
When she got in the sack 
She was on the attack
At the size and the shape of his ‘wiener’

Her suitors would then try to dodge her 
After insults on...

Faces of Terrifying Demons


Some look into the Demon dark
And are engulfed

Crushed and torn apart
These poor souls
Descend to the narcotic escapes
Or turn to face the world
In return 
With violence, anger and hate
Or fall at last
In the suicidal ends of life

Some prefer never to look
At all

Into the...

Seemed serene but she couldn’t be meaner

At the size and the shape of his ‘wiener’

Her suitors would then try to dodge her 
After insults on their little todger
But listen up guys

-I wake up and I'm cold
-My eyes began to open
-And my vision clears up
-I'm out side, in a forest
-Every things wet
-Like it rained
-But there's something different
-Its sticky
-Then I realize
-I am surrounded
-But there not moving
-Not one of them
-There isn't a sound in the sky
-Or a movement...

In memory it is standing still
with decrepit stateliness,
a crumbling mansion on the hill,
in pathetic loneliness.

Mama says when she was young
it was owned by a rich man
and was the nicest house in town.
Just picture it if you can.

When the Great Depression hit,
the rich man lost his...

And starts our five our decent into my sage scented hell

All of whom live in shacks made of wood that came from...

At night all alone
Frozen as a stone
You try to rest your head
But you’re filled with dread
Afraid of the monsters who might get you tonight
I see you frozen with fear, I hear you screaming with fright
You play the scene in your head
And then you wish you...

Birds seen flying together in large flocks tonight
Words of warning sounds emit as coos and cackles
Herds of cows start running toward the barn door light
Blurred together as a murder of black crows and grackles

Snow starts fiercely falling down from the clear night sky
Glow of red...

The witches cackle
Werewolves howling at the moon
Cauldrons full of spells

Rubber masks invade
Skeletons dancing from limbs
The graves are empty

Terrifying truths
Halloween curses exist
Mother-in-law lives...

It’s coming, that time of the year,
to do up my taxes, I fear.
I shake with great fright
and toil through the night.
What’s owed is becoming too clear.

I regret the money I’ve spent
on food and the lights and the rent.
My cat needs a job;
a bank I may...

  One empty black night,
Two yowls shrieked through the night air;
Three minute cat fight.

One shudders at the dying plea of beasts;
Two injured cats is bad; glad it’s not three!

An app on my phone says they’ll be snow tonight - we can expect .2 inches in New Haven. I can’t wait because where I come from snow is an event.

In Georgia, the mere suggestion of a snowflake in a weather report results in businesses...

Winged gargoyle appeared in my sleep with glaring teeth.
I felt intimidated, there seemed to be sinister ways beneath.
Why would the sleep faerie put such a gargoyle in my dream?
I ran from this monster, my terrified heart pumping full steam!...

This is my translation of the first of Rilke’s Duino Elegies. Rilke began the first Duino Elegy in 1912, as a guest of Princess Marie von Thurn und Taxis, at Duino Castle, near Trieste on the Adriatic Sea.

It's not that simple for hacking bank account
It needs advance information technology
Genius is breaching privacy, security and law
A misuse of knowledge and wisdom
Just because of greediness 
A careless step will fall into his trap
Money can fly away without wings
Hardwork won't pay 
Why is the world...
