With Halloween coming up soon, I thought that I would have some fun.
A is for acid, and melting of flesh
B is for burning, getting rid of the rest
C is for corpse, who insides are rusting
D is for demon, all pea soup and cussing
E’s for electrocute, tied to a chair
F is for Freddy, fall asleep if you dare
G is for ghastly, ghouls and ghosts
H is for horror, which we love the most
I is for It, the clown with the smile
J is for Jigsaw, who’s actions are vile
K is for killer, every horror needs one
L is for lunatic, lock him up when he’s done
M is for monsters, both big ones and small
N is for Norman, who lived with his Ma
O is for Ogre, tearing skin with his teeth
P is for petrified, ‘cause you are the meat
Q is for quarantine, don’t let them get free
R is for Raven, the classic Poe story
S is for sinister, when Hitchcock was king
T is for tomb, full of lots of dead things
U’s for undead, who rise from the mire
V’s for what else? The immortal vampire
W’s for Weird Tales, and stories fantastic
X is for Xenomorph, the Alien classic
Y is for yelling, as you pass out from fright
Z is for zombies, watch out they can bite
