PONDEROUS THOUGHT Prompt;
Spooks and Creeps.
This month’s prompt is simple; write something scary.

👻👻👻
Deep in the silence of the night
Kids dressed up as goblins and ghouls
Carry baskets shaped like cauldrons
Look for strangers to trick or treat
Tell them to stay away from the tombstones
And the creaking deadwood in the graveyard
Creatures that live there are not the friendly types
Not all who roam the streets that night are in disguise
Some are what they really look like
Evil spirits looking for a tasty morsel
Beware and hurry back home
The real danger is lurking around the corner
Shush….. now be quiet
👻👻👻

Love it Sadje. Reminded me of the origins of Halloween in Scotland where people got dressed up to blend in with the evil being roaming the streets
