On a deserted, darkened street
Halloween arrives with its treats
The two of us, walking down the lane
Scared and excited, looking for fame
An empty house breathes, coming alive
Energy awakens and desires to thrive
An electrifying party is set for tonight
The ancient house turns up its lights
A full moon illuminates the night sky
Just as witches in black, prepare to fly
Special guests add to the scary fun
Arriving from their past, one by one
Escaping from his creator’s famous lab
Frankenstein stumbles in, frightfully fab
Waking up from sleeping in a coffin bed
Dracula flies over, with a thirst for “red”
Howling eerily, over sighting a rare full moon
Wolfman pounces in, not a moment too soon
Sitting like unsuspecting flowers on a wall
The two of us don’t want this to end at all
Music and spirits fill the old, rundown place
This Halloween returns with a familiar taste
The impromptu party doesn’t last long
Finishing the night with one final song
Precisely tapping ruby-colored shoes three times
A young girl requests to return home before Nine
Walking past the darkened, empty house
You and I cannot even hear a tiny mouse
Realizing again, it’s time for lights out
Planning to return in a year, no doubt

bool!!
