Annabel Lee

I do not own Being Human U.K. in any way.


It was many and many a year ago

In a kingdom by the sea

It was a normal sunny day in L.A, when Mitchell saw her.

A girl with long blonde hair and beautiful blue eyes.

He couldn't help himself. He walked across the street to where she was standing. "Excuse me miss", he said.

She turned to face him.

Mitchell's eyes fell onto the necklace around her neck. "That is a very interesting necklace", he said.

It was the silhouette of a black raven on a red background.

"Quoth the Raven", Mitchell recited.

"Nevermore", she answered back, "How did you know?"

"Just a hunch", he said, "I'm Mitchell".

"Annabel", she told him.


I was a child and she was a child

In this kingdom by the sea,

But we loved with a love that was more than love

I and my Annabel Lee

Mitchell loved her more than anything.

She knew what he was, but she didn't care. She loved him nonetheless.

Mitchell was his way to her apartment when he was surrounded by a group of vampires. "What do you want?" he asked them.

The leader stepped forward.

"Herrick", Mitchell said.

"Been awhile, Mitchell", Herrick said.

"No, Herrick", Mitchell said, "I'm clean".

"Ah, that again", Herrick said, "Come back to us. Join the fun".

"I said no", Mitchell said. He started to walk off.

He stopped when Herrick said, "Is this because of that girl? What's her name? Oh yes! Annabel".

"If you touch her, I will kill you. Do you hear me Herrick?" Mitchell threatened.

"Don't tell me you love her", Herrick said, "Oh! You do, don't you?"

"Leave her alone. I mean it Herrick", Mitchell said and walked off.


The wind came out of the cloud by night

Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee

Annabel was walking home from work one night when someone grabbed her.

They covered her mouth so she couldn't scream.

She felt something pierce her neck, before she lost consciousness.


Mitchell called her phone again, but she didn't answer. "Where are you, Annabel?" he muttered.

Suddenly, someone stepped out of the shadows.

"Come with me", he said.

"What have you done to her?!" Mitchell yelled.

"Come with me", the man said again.

Mitchell was taken to an abandoned warehouse and the man lead him inside. "Where is she?!" Mitchell yelled at Herrick.

"Hello again Mitchell", Herrick said.

"I said, where is she?" Mitchell growled.

Herrick rolled his eyes.

Two vampires carried her in and threw her at Mitchell's feet.

He knelt down and looked into her frightened black eyes.

"It hurts Mitchell", she told him.

"I know it does, love", Mitchell said. He straightened back up and glared at Herrick.

"You always knew it had to end in this", Herrick said.

"We're done here", Mitchell said picking Annabel up.


But our love it was stronger by far than the love

Of those who were older than we

Of many far wise than we

A few days later, Annabel asked Mitchell, "Do you still love me?"

"Of course I still you love you", he told her, "Why wouldn't I?"

"Because of what they turned me into", she said.

"I'd be lying if I said I won't miss the way you blushed and the cute little noises you made when you slept", he said, "Neither the angels in Heaven above/Nor the demons down under the sea/Can ever dissever my soul from the soul/Of the beautiful Annabel Lee".
