Season of the Witch

Free verse poem for 13 Poetic Days of Halloween Contest 2025

Harry Grimbridge met a tragic fate on a fall night
trying to get away from the menacing men
a creepy tragedy that was a mystery
trying to find answers
that seemed buried in cobwebs
Dr. Challis and Ellie started to explore
the underpinnings of the sinister plot
Silver Shamrock was the place of horror they found
that spawned freakish tragedies
Stonehenge embedded in ritual masks
created to spread unchecked horror
chaos and strange twists arise
the continuous beeping of impending doom
threatens to overtake the airwaves
Does Dr. Challis succeed to undo the evil?
the answer is not completely clear
but Michael Myers is probably near
waiting for his time back in the spotlight
