Welcome to the 2016 October Frights Blog Hop
I thought we'd start off with a song... Halloween is like Christmas to me, and when I posted this picture on my FB page...
I couldn't get the Christmas tune
out of my head, So I decided to write my own Halloween version. I'm not a poet, like some of my fellow Blog Hop authors, and certainly I'm no lyricist, but I took a shot at it and had some fun. And you can play along as part of my giveaway. Details at the bottom.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year.
With the kids trick or treating And skeletons rattling you full of good fear It’s the most wonderful time of the year. It’s the creep-creepiest season of all. With those Halloween greetings and devilish meetings. When death comes to call It’s the creep-creepiest season of all. There’ll be flash mobs of Thriller And bloodthirsty killers All howling in the shadows They’ll be scary ghost stories And tales of the gory Halloweens long, long ago. It’s the most wonderful time of the year They’ll be many dead rising And witches devising When black cats are near. It’s the most wonderful time of the year. It’s the most wonderful time of the year There’ll be monsters time warping Riff Raff hiding corpses When Brad (and) Janet are near. It’s the most wonderful time of the year. They’ll be parties for ghosting Body parts for roasting And howling in the shadows They’ll be scary ghost stories And tales of the gory Halloweens long, long ago.

Great job with the lyrics! We used to have a "Best Halloween Songs of the '80s" CD, and I'd have to go with Oingo Boingo's Dead Man's Party or the Ramones Pet Cemetery for my favorites. Happy Hopping!!
