In the spirit of Hallowe'en Those are the footsteps that creep up the stairs followed by a twist of a knob, you're caught unaware did you leave the door open for a visitor that night were you in bed with a novel when fear took flight? recognize that fear after a film on a haunted house kept you fearful, wide awake a ghoul creeped up on his prey, quiet as a mouse a heinous plot was at stake now you witness those steps on your very own the old heart throbs, flesh is far from stone... what when the door to your bedroom creeks ajar and the shadow of a visitor beams in from afar your better half then slips gingerly into the room could just as well have been a lady on her broom!
