I am standing right behind you
I am knocking at your door
You feel me breathing down your neck
But you turn around and can't sense me anymore
I'm your worst nightmare
I have been since first breath
I control your life
For I am your death
Your personal stalker
I watch you with intent
I'm closing in on you
It's the worst night you've spent
For it's All Hallow's Eve
And I'm closer than before
I creep up behind you
You shiver down to the core
My hands close on your throat
You're not feeling so dandy
But I squeeze a little tighter
And say "Hand over the candy!"

I really couln't think of a way to scare anyone for this contest but I tried my hardest and I thought I would add a little humor at the end! Enjoy!
