Halloween is frighten full of scary sounds
Kids are walking in the night with they costumes on
And having fun as they journey on
They collect candies and play trick or threat
And walk through the neighborhoods and saying trick or threat
When the moon is full and high in the air
Gleaming bright everywhere
There always some costumes that can give you a scare
Costumes can be scary, frightening and cool
It’s a time when children are in a good mood
And the time they tell ghost stories
And even talk about they favorite hobbies
Halloween, Halloween a kid’s best night
That can be filled with wonderful sights
And give someone a fright.

Witches,vampires,warewolves and all
October 31st is the night to be a skull.
Just come out and trick or treat and you would have much candy to eat.
Don't be scared, just have fun because halloween has just begun.

There once was a cat that lived in a witches hat that came out every Halloween night,
From ghosts to goblins,
And silly black bats,
ITS HALLOWEEN SAID THE OLD SCARY WITCH!

Come on Xivio on Halloween,
There’s no doubt you’ll HAVE to scream!
Footsteps running behind you in terror,
Your heart beats fast and you stare into the mirror!
You spy a zombie and give us a scream! Yes a scream!
If you don’t scream, your not part of the team,
Attack that zombie don’t look at your freakin’ hompy!
Stab it! Grab it! Get messy and bomby!
Ooh never mind it was only Tommy ._.
~Sophie <3 Xivio!~
Pumpkins shimer big and bright.
The witches get ready for their flight.
They ride into the night.
Brooms in hand, wand in mouth,
They fly the stary sky from north to south.
~Taylor~
The vampires come out at night to kill the children of fright.
Whom fear their deadly bite.
And hide in the absolute darkness of light.
~Taylor~
GHOSTS!
Theres only one thing that scares us the most
It's that creepy,crawly,flying thing, that we call a ghost.
They scare alot at nite,
And sometimes during the day,
You always try to prepae for em,
But they scare ya anyway.
When ever they come near you,
They always give you a chill,
The kind of feeling you always get
When you find a fifty dollar bill.
~Jawan~
Peter, Peter Pumpkin Eater
Had a wife and couldn't keep her,
He put her in a pumpkin shell
And there he kept her very well.

So don’t go out on Halloween night so stay in bed and don’t lose your head
Because then you’ll be died so don’t go out on Halloween!!!!!!!!!!
~Liam~

Bats, goblins and ghosts too
Whoever created this thought it through
The smell of pumpkins fill the day
But during the night creatures play
Masks and costumes are just apart
The best ones are the beasts at heart
The ones that cry with howls and boo's
The normal people have no clue
They run among us
But un-noticable thus,
They made this thing
And we shall call it halloween~

Five Little Pumpkin Sitting On A Gate
Five little pumpkins sitting on a gate,
The first one said,
"Oh my, it's getting late."
The second one said,
"But we don't care."
The third one said,
"I see witches in the air."
The fourth one said,
"Let's run, and run, and run."
The fifth one said,
"Get ready for some fun."
Then whoosh went the wind,
and out went the lights,
And five little pumpkins rolled out of sight!
~Jesslyn~
Spooks
There's a goblin at my window,
A monster by my door.
The pumpkin at my table
Keeps on smiling more and more.
There's a ghost who haunts my bedroom,
A witch whose face is green.
They used to be my family,
Till they dressed for Halloween.
~Sandra Liatsos~
Walk Into My Parlor
"Will you walk into my parlor?"
said the spider to the fly;
"Tis the prettiest little parlor that you ever did spy.
The way into my parlor is up a winding stair,
And I have many curious things to show when you are there."
"Oh no, no!" said the little fly,
"to ask me is in vain;
For who goes up your winding stair
can never come down again."
~Mary Howitt~
Halloween
Witches flying past on broomsticks,
Black cats leaping here and there,
White-robed spooks on every corner,
Mournful moaning in the air,
Goblins peering out of windows,
Spirit-things that rap and run-
But don't be scared-it's just October,
Having one last hour of fun!
~by Mary Jane Carr~
Haunted House
There's a house upon the hilltop
We will not go inside
For that is where the witches live,
Where ghosts and goblins hide.
Tonight they have their party,
All the lights are burning bright,
But oh we will not go inside
The haunted house tonight.
The demons there are whirling
And the spirits swirl about.
They sing their songs to Halloween.
"Come join the fun," they shout.
But we do not want to go there
So we run with all our might
And oh we will not go inside
The haunted house tonight.

The Scariest Thing
Some things are scary
Others are not,
Like ghosts and goblins,
And things that rot
Cats and dogs are not scary
At all,
All they do is play chase
And catch a ball.
But the scariest thing
Creeps around at night,
Looking for victims
To scratch and bite.
It hides its face
It's too ugly to see,
It rules all the monsters,
Both tall and wee.
Those who've seen his face,
Their eyes burst and bleed,
They beg for mercy
"Spare us, spare us," they plead.
But he's not a giver
He takes what he finds,
All sorts of people
Both sightseers and blind.
You've got the picture,
That he is the king
Of everything scary,
Every little scary thing.
So watch out at night 'cause if
By him you're seen,
He'll give you an evil grin
And say...
HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Adorable Debbie, costumed like a queen,
When out with her basket on Halloween.
She knocked at the door of Mortimer Huff,
Who goes to extremes with the Halloween stuff.
Like Freddie Kruger and his glove, he's dressed,
And Little Debbie is sore distressed.
In round-eyed surprise she cowers in dread.
"Twick or tweat," she coos, then bites off his head.
~John~
Once on Halloween
It was quite a scene
I heard a scream
and ate a bean.

Halloween Night
The Ghosts and Goblins roam the streets
As Witches fly out to find some sweets
The Vampires come up to play at night
and wonder round till morning light
Next are the Zombies walking down the road
Acidently steping on a witches toad
But now the light comes from behind the trees
and all the monsters scury home like bees
The Ghosts and Goblins go back to there woods
Then Witches fly home with there faces in hoods
As Vampires run back to there houses
The Zombies get in to there graves and back in there poses.
~Kaitlyn~
5 little pumpkins sitting on the fence, one fell off and bumped his head
He rolled down the hill and was never seen again
Now there's only 4 pumpkins sitting on a fence..
etc..
Then at the end now theres no more pumpkins on the fence.
Green eyes peer out behind you,
No light around,
There's no flashlight to guide you,
The eyes look hungrily behind you,
You're alone,
No ones around,
For miles and miles,
You hear something move,
Your heart beat thickens,
Pounding against your chest,
Something pounces toward you,
You scream as you hit the ground,
All the happiness is gone,
There's only fear,
A wave of coldness flutters through you,
Shivers crawl all over,
You can't decide whether to cry or scream,
Deep inside you wish it were all a bad dream,
An army of mist falls all around you,
You can't escape,
It's behind you...
Green eyes peer out behind you,
No light around,
There's no flashlight to guide you,
The eyes look hungrily behind you,
On the howl moon shining of Halloween Night.

Witch
Witch,witch where do you fly?
Under the clouds and over the sky
Witch,witch what do you eat?
Little black apples from hurrican street
Witch,witch what do you drink?
Vinegar and good red ink
Witch,witch where do you sleep?
Up in the clouds where the pillows are cheap.

THE SKELETON
I went to the doctor's, cause I had a cold and there was a propped up skeleton, all musty and dusty and old
The doctor said 'wait here', and left And I was full of fear cause that skeleton's standin' there starin' at me
And me, I shed a tear As those bones began to rattle and shake as in a strong earth-quake
But everything else is still, as that rattlin' sound the room to fill
As those bones began to rattle and
shake,
jiggle
and
quake
And all my remaining breath to take
