Beckoning me into the forest
Calling out for me by name
Daring me to come to them
Eerie mist among the trees
Figures in black lurking nearby
Ghostly voices fill the night
Haunting these scary woods
I cannot resist their calling
Jogging closer to the forest
Knowing there is danger ahead
Lacking the will to stop myself
Monsters are now waiting for me
Nervous and scared I am
Obsessed with the need to go
Precaution I've thrown away
Quickly I enter the forest
Running towards my destiny
Sacrificing my very own life
Tempted by their haunting call
Undead beings roam these woods
Vampires hidden among the trees
Watching as I slowly come closer
X-ray vision they surely have
Yearning to become one of them
Zooming straight towards my fate.
