Chills in Castlevania

Rain pours

Soaks him to the bone

Every crash of thunder

Sends his nerves leaping

He jumps a foot off the ground

He journeys on


Surrounded by strange, frightening creatures

He's never seen before

His weapons useless

Hopelessly useless

His heart pounds

He journeys on


When he stumbles

He smells rotting flesh

As mummies reach for him

Decayed bodies wrapped

In tattered bandages

He scrambles away

He runs

He journeys on


Come and see

The alluring woman

With snakes for hair

They hiss and show off forked tongues

Slithering at him

A scream rips from him

He flees into darkness

He journeys on


Pitch black

He cannot see

Trips on his own terror

Hopelessly useless weapon clattering

As he tumbles

And

Oh God

A shadow

It towers over him

What—is—it


Oh God

Oh God

Death incarnate

Stares him down with hungry eyes

A fresh soul for the harvest

Oh God

Oh God

OH GOD

OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD


A final scream

Echoes through the castle

The sharp scythe slashes

Torn body drops in a pool of blood

Say good night


They say his spirit still roams these halls

When the witching hour strikes

And the darkness falls


Hear him in the creaking and moaning wind

Feel him in the shivers down your spine

See him among the shadows in the room


Listen to his haunting cries


Come and see

Come and see


Happy Halloween!
