It's coming as every year.
FRIGHT NIGHT

Halloween is far more than a horror filled day
When witches and goblins come out to play
The Jack o Lanterns sit there smiling at you
That is because they have nothing else to do

Vampires are out there looking for blood to suck
One might avoid them if they have some of luck
The person they bite will become a vampire too
And they just might be out there looking for you

The Werewolf is roaming and killing for his fun
Can only be stopped with silver bullets or gum
Perhaps the most dreaded of all in your block
Is the master of horror, the malicious Warlock.

There is still another who for heads is a seeker
All dressed up in black, he is the Grim Reaper
Load up your biggest basket with apples and candy
You can buy them all off if you keep that handy

They are all just the children of your hometown
But on Halloween, they will shake you down
Because it’s their night to charge you a toll
That can only be paid with candy from that bowl.
