The night is freezing, in shadows deep,
a little girl’s fate unfolds.
An eerie figure in the haunted house,
a haunting chase, a terror untold.

Midnight chimes, a funeral toll,
as graveyard spirits begin to patrol.
Through twisted woods, she runs in fear,
footsteps echo, drawing near.

The ghostly spirit, desperate to taste life,
whispers of doom in the soulless moonlight.
A chilling wind, a fast-paced heartbeat echoing,
the malicious spirit pursues the dance of death.

“Please stop!”
The girl yells her lungs out.
“Why are you doing this to me!”
Despair takes over the girls body,
wishing she could just disappear from existence.

The chase persists,
a girl tripping, shredding tears of fear
as she drowns in the ghostly night.
With no help, nowhere to hide.

Deadly screams in the uncanny air,
A tragic end to this dark affair.
The spiteful spirit claims its prey,
In the realm where nightmares play.
