One Halloween Night

There was some fright

And evil was afoot.

A wretched plan

To destroy Man

With fire, ash, and soot.

Lone moonlit beam

Of silver light

Did shine upon one knight:

A prophesy

To save the world

Or, at least, put up a fight.

Richard, this brave man, he was,

Except, no man was he!

For he was a vampire,

Destined to do battle against his own kind,

You see.

In a sleepy New Hampshire hamlet,

Where evil lurks and grows,

Friends and foes,

He is destined to find,

As the Halloween shadows grow late:

A tender love named Noah,

The monster named Fangs and their hate.

Come heed the call

Of angels' wings

As destiny unfurls,

Will you open this book,

And turn to page one

To see if Richard saves the world?
