DAY "21" OF THE HAUNTING

You Are Warned!

You see the sign

it's not benign

we gave fair warning

but now you're mourning

yet it was your choice

made with your voice

"I want to be scared!"

that's why our notice fails

you won't listen

you fall for all that glistens

we love to please

always try to appease

as we lead you deeper

we're now your keeper

blood is our nectar

bones our specter

we enslave a body

and embody your soul

so now that you're schooled

still want to meet the ghoul

of course, you do

especially after drinking

our special brew.

drink up

drink up

the hour is near

never fear we'll be here.

MUAHAHAHAHA!
