Halloween night

Halloween is a time when the dead spirits rise.
It's when dead bodies pop up from their graves in surprise.
Halloween is a time to trick-or-treat.
It's a time to collect candy so succulent and sweet.
Halloween is a time to dress up as you wish
From a vampire, to a pumpkin, or even a fish!
Halloween is a time of terror and fright.
It's a time when the dead run around all night.
Halloween is a day filled with shouts and screams.
It's when all of your nightmares are no longer dreams!
