In this unearthly place
Felt his presence
Chill her face
Watched the mist
Against the ground
Rise, then fall
Without a sound
Could this be illusion?
A trick, not a treat
He’s slowly surrounding
Himself, at her feet
Feeling the tug
She realizes fast
As he pulls her under
With a sinister grasp

I already did, missy! I’ll post mine soon.
Hey, if you want to enter your daughter’s pumpkin into SMM for a chance to win a $50 Amazon or eBay gift card (to be emailed), that would be cute! I’ll also post the pics on my blog since SMM can be a scary place for kids. We may have an entry from a child from the UK.
Here are the guidelines if you’re interested:

Anyone can enter the contest if you’d like to give it a go or know of anyone else. 🙂

This is fabulous! This is a great scene and perfectly spooky feel. I particularly love, Watched the mist / Against the ground / Rise, then fall / Without a sound. It is my favorite kind of movie.
