When darkness comes upon this eve,
beware stakes and knives that cleave.
Demons come from graves of rest,
search for victims in death's quest.
Masquerading within reflection,
living dead avoid detection.
Capture lost souls what they seeks,
heart stopping fear as odor reeks.
They lurk about you dare not sleep,
pure evilness in dreams they creep.
Nightmarish ghouls, stench on breath,
it brings to you the hint of death.
Upon this eve they come for you,
ghosts and goblins and witch's brew.
All Hallow's Eve with mouth agape,
try as you may there's no escape.
