Horror nowadays is only
Violence and gore
Effects and nothing more
And now
It's all become a bore
Jump scares here and there
But nothing chilling to the bone
It lacks the certain tone
That leaves you scared to be alone
Oh where are all the tales? That
Made you check under your bed
And where are all the monsters that
Would fill your soul with dread
What makes you wonder
What goes bump
In the night
Makes you jump
Out of fright
Heart thump
Blood pump
Gives you
Goosebu...
Goosebumps
I miss reading
Goosebumps
Turning every page
Would raise my hair
Goosebumps
Reading gave me
Goosebumps
Readers beware
You’re in for a scare
When I was young I didn’t read
But thanks to R. L. Stine
Since ‘round the age of nine
This boy was hooked to every line
Sure they were for kids
But they were scary nonetheless
My bed would be a mess
I thought my dolls were all possessed!
They got me into reading
And inspired me for years
It’s brilliant how they all tapped into
Basic human fears
Like for example
Piano lessons
Living dummies
Monster blood
And walking mummies
Killer gnomes
Killer homes
Killer bees
Killer trees
Killer bogs
Killer dogs
Killer beds
Killer heads
Killer dregs
Killer eggs
Killer death
Killer breath
Goosebumps
I miss reading
Goosebumps
Turning every page
Would raise my hair
Goosebumps
Reading gave me
Goosebumps
Readers beware
You’re in for a scare
