Good day, Halloween pals! My title’s Mike, and I’m thrilled to hitch the Halloween Love neighborhood. I’m an artist, storyteller, and long-time fan of the whole lot spooky. Again in 2020, impressed by my two younger boys’ love of Halloween, I started writing and illustrating quick spooky rhymes for them. What began as a small bedtime mission slowly grew into one thing a lot greater – a inventive nook of the web full of authentic paintings, eerie animations, and a few free tales for youngsters (and adults) to get pleasure from.
A New Voice within the Shadows
It’s a nice honour to share my paintings and spooky tales with Halloween Love. On my webpage you’ll discover tales like Massive Frankie, Maggot-Mouth, The Witch with an Itch, and my latest story, Crying in My Attic. There’s even a mischievous digital doll named Dolly who loves a sport of “cover and search”, you’ll discover her on the base of the web page, in my Halloween Lab.
A FREE Story
Right here’s considered one of my tales from the spooky aspect of the net – it’s referred to as ‘Daddy is a Zombie!’
Zombie tag is my favorite sport,
I run and conceal and name his title,
“Daddy daddy, you gained’t get me!”,
Upstairs I run, did he see?
Into my bed room, shut the door,
Disguise beneath my mattress, lay on the ground,
Footsteps and growling, he’s getting close to,
My door swings open, daddy’s right here!
Ft broke and bony, toe nails so lengthy!
This will’t be daddy, the place’s daddy gone!
I hold very quiet, the ft stroll round,
I hold very quiet, I don’t make a sound.
If this isn’t daddy, who can it’s?
My mom, my brother, an actual zombie?
However zombies eat brains, and I like my head,
So I hold very quiet, beneath my mattress…
A moan and a groan, toys fall to the ground,
A bang and a crash, a slam of my door,
I’m locked in my room, I scream and I shout,
“HELP it’s a zombie, get me out!
A hand reaches down, adopted by a head,
Bits of its mind fall subsequent to my mattress,
He opens his mouth, I set free a scream,
It’s enamel are all yellow, a tongue slimy inexperienced.
The zombie is growling, it mumbles and speaks,
“Uuuurrh…. it’s…. brains…. me…. eats….”,
I shut my eyes tightly, this sport isn’t truthful,
This have to be a dream, or a nightmare.
My eyes slowly open, the zombie says “boo!”,
Adopted by “uuuurrh, I’ve discovered you!”,
This sport is so scary, however I like to play,
The zombie was daddy, he acquired me immediately…
