Evil lies
In emerald eyes
Be wary of her meek disguise
She hides it well
This living hell
The hunger never dies
She must find
Else lose her mind
A victim to sate her need
His scent is near
The smell of fear
His body he must cede
So she may live
Though not forgive
The horror she inflicts
Night is done
And she has won
Her blood stained lips she licks

Hello Friends!
Oh how I’ve missed you all. This crazy thing called life, well, it can get in the way sometimes. But October is coming and that’s my favorite month. I get to go all ghoulish and horrid, right up to the last day! I can’t wait. The brain is already churning out the macabre and there’s more where that came from! See you soon!

Come take a ride on my broomstick
Meet my precious cat, Mr. Quiver
We’ll turn your head, round and round
Upside down, make your whole body shiver
Throw in some jack-o-lanterns
Light the candles, watch them flame
The goblins? In the graveyard?
They’re writing numbers, taking names
I will tell my tale this Halloween
About the time I caught your eye
And how you fell for my greatest plan
I’m so sorry that you had to die
Your time has come to a dreadful end
On the gravestone, etched in black
Your name and, yes, the date you left
Sad to say, there’s no turning back

She lies in darkness
Hiding, in her own shadow
Waiting, just for you

Ghoulish creature in full moon light
Eerily stalking you, in ebony night
No longer hidden, the Hunter’s Moon glows
Lighting the way, with terror, he shows
A hideous face, with a sickle in hand
His quest for you, most carefully planned
Watching and waiting, he stares in the dark
Empty eyes gazing, he’s leaving his mark
Quivering soul, he’s gotten into your head
Wearing you down, no escape from the dead
