Once upon a time, in a room so dim,
Mandy couldn't sleep, the wind howled grim.
A smidge of air slipped past the pane,
Curtains fluttered like a ghostly mane.
Shadows danced on the ceiling with ease,
Streetlights flickered in the breeze.
As they waited in line, actors appeared in the crowd.
Moving like broken toys, and some not making a sound.
Suddenly, a chainsaw roared, and a clown came in sight!
But it was just an actor, pretending with all his might.
In the murky swamp, where eerie shadows creep,
A green glow emerges, casting a spell so deep.
Through thick fog's embrace, a monster does rise!
Insects hum and chirp, creating a symphony of surprise.
