It’s Halloween night
alright, sit tight
the ghouls are out
don’t scream, don’t shout
what’s under your bed
it’s scary, but it’s dead
just crawled onto your hand
this terror I can’t stand
the witching hour’s here
and the night’s full of fear
BOOOOOOOOOOOO!

For Day 13 ("The Witching Hour")of Sammi's 13 Days of Samhain and d'Verse's Quadrille (44 words exactly)
great beat to this one, Happy Halloween! 🎃

Eek! I spent the entire evening wrapped up in a novel called “Ghost Eaters.” I like to read something spooky on Halloween and this one was so good I could not put it down! Happy Halloween, Dora!

Well I wish I could have snuck up & yelled “Boo, Pumpkinhead!” at a strategic moment! Now I’ve got to recommend this book to someone I know who is a big horror, I mean HORROR, fan. I take my scares in short stories. I still haven’t got over King’s “Different Seasons” collection and that was decades ago.

It’s that time of year and I can’t resist. To me Vincent Price is the impresario of horror.

Something else we share in common! It’s so easy to conjure up his voice, no matter how long ago you last heard it!

I really have too much fun with rhythm sometimes. It’s like bouncing up and down, in my head, of course.🙂

There was too much laughter outside from kids going door to door, and I thought I’d join the fun the Vincent Price way! 🙂
