ALL HALLOWS EVE

There is one day a year when evil makes all the rules
in the middle of the night there will be lots of ghost, goblins, and ghouls
On the last day of October the souls of the dead will rise, is what we believe
the souls of the dead will walk with the living on this All Hallows Eve

Beware on this night of the dead souls, the spirits can deceive
they are looking for souls to take back with them and it could be your soul they retrieve
With everyone dressed in disguise, the dead souls could be right in front of your eyes
keep an eye out because to let one of these creatures touch your soul really would be unwise

On this night there are witches that are cooking up a special brew
to cast their spells and make them work they may need a body part or two
They chant the words that make it real and sprinkle their secret ingredients into the stew
watch out if you see something out of the corner of your eye, it might be a witch coming for you

There will be creatures roaming about lost and alone looking for a home
beware if you see someone walking stiff and erect and you hear a strange moan
Watch out if you see someone in ragged clothes and skin that looks like stone
it could be a hungry Zombie looking for a meal of flesh, blood, and bone

There are Demons from the pits of hell that likes to eat brains, which are in a lost dimension
they were cast away with a spell by a wizard of his day and put in a worldly suspension
These demons that are pure evil and likes to do nothing but kill, were put in an unholy detention
on this day they can come back and prey on humans while looking for redemption

If there is a full moon out there will be fright, because werewolves stalk the night
be careful because they look like you and me until the full moon is in sight
The werewolf is roaming, searching for his prey to bite
all it takes is a scratch from his jagged teeth and you will join him in his blight

In the dark there are humans that have been around for ages that are cursed
they search all night long for blood to satisfy their eternal thirst
You cannot run if he smells your blood, he can change into a bat and come down from higher
he will gaze into your eyes, then bite you on the neck, this creature called a Vampire

So on this night if you're out in the street
beware of everything around you and keep an eye on those that you meet
If you're at home where you think it's safe and then you choose to leave
I hope you make it back all in one piece on this ALL HALLOWS EVE
