It was around midnight as a chill passed through my soul,
my body shivered and from where this came I didn't know.
Sitting beneath the moonlight silence engulfed me there,
it was as if the devil had just made me aware.
The unseen death often plays tricks upon the mind,
lost and alone you feel nothing but know it's nestled inside.
Others look right through you not a one can tell,
how evil does reside within becoming such evil from hell.
Like a turning of a page I changed unknowing why,
today I feel the need to feed and can see in pitch dark through my eyes.
Changing ever so slightly leaving friends and family this day,
for the hunger has engulfed me in such a way, on them today I prey.
The day I slipped slowly out of sight,
to reside amongst the undead they are everywhere this night.
As my body wretched in savvier pain and my form so changed,
I was no longer the child yet a demon now remains.
The children upon the streets on this hollows eve,
never knew of the evil presents the world of the unseen.
For each child taken engulfed with in its form,
unable to scream for in one swipe their throats have become torn.
The horrified faces of the children taken today,
remains to be seen for within my lair they are so displayed.
Masks of fear stretched across bone,
now resides in the devils home.
Children as they dwell in drugs,
brings him a smile each day.
The very young within their minds,
he whispers its OK.
Time passes and the devil lets them have their fun,
yet in time they find themselves the only one.
For the mind has been bridled and the body forgotten today ,
has given their soul to the devil its now his playground for which he preys.
Within the children ones who knows not fear,
leaves their souls open yet the devil is so near.
He hunts them for his pleasures for the warnings,
they chose not to hear .
and within a split second as the devil enters,
there is whispering in his ears.
Voices of the dark guides him down a lonely path,
he refuses all love and belief-es and instills in others his wrath.
Closed within his own cell once known as his body indeed,
no longer follows the human race for in hate he only feeds.
Now finding they are the devils slave,
no longer lives just survives for the hunger every day.
Lost between worlds going slowly mad,
and unable to even remember what once he had.
Beware of the devils candy on hallows eve,
its a way the devil plants his seed.
No child is safe so do beware,
you don't end up in the devils lair.

Author notes
Know to do this in time you stand alone dirty and starving and without a home. The hunger eats within you feeding forever more for within that very candy holds the elixer for sure . Children in this country do beware and eat not of any candy another hands you there . For today the devil walks the street without fear and watches each child that passes with a wicked snear

Oh, great God this was scary! I've never read a poem that has put so much horror and fear in my heart yet I couldn't even blink and kept reading each line making me thirst for the next.
Wonderful, you wrote this with great imagination, I can only suggest one thing, revising for spell check, you got few here and there.
Best of luck in the contest! <3
