Movement in mirrors
Old pictures with eyes
Faint creaks from the floor
A full moon surprise
Through windows, unhinged
Ghosts roam to spread fear
When chilling winds howl
Telltale, that they’re near
The scent of a wolf
Paw prints down the hall
Lock tight every door
Lest trouble befall
This one night each year
As monsters break free
Remember these words
Save room for candy
