In the dead of night, fear creeps in

Whispers of darkness, a sinister grin

Eyes watching from the shadows deep

Haunting my dreams as I try to sleep

Echoes of terror in the chilling air

Clawing at my soul, I feel despair

Ghostly figures dance before my eyes

A macabre waltz under the moonlit skies

The howling wind a mournful sound

In this haunted place, I am bound

To face my fears, to confront my dread

Or be consumed by the darkness, filled with dread

The shadows within, a chilling sight

A never-ending nightmare, a relentless fight

Fear grips my heart, it won't let go

In this twisted world, I am its foe
