Fear the ghosts

The entity will rise in a dark, cold mist
to claim another victim, add to its list
The creaking floor boards strike fear in your mind
Your eyes search for the source, but none will you find.
The voice of a demon is heard in a groan...
"GET OUT, GET OUT. LEAVE US ALONE"
You think to run, to get outside,
but the fear has your body petrified.
The mist has formed and changed position.
It stands before you, an apparition.
Is it a loved one who has passed away
or a demonic spirit that wants you as prey?
In a flash it swoops straight toward your bed.
The air becomes heavy, sudden feelings of dread.
Again there's a moan, the many voices now shriek,
"Cut him, Cut him, our spirits are weak"
"Kill him, Kill him, his soul we need"
"It's been too long, we need to feed"
The gashes appear on your chest and leg.
they burn and bleed, for your life you beg.
A visceral moan is heard in a roar.
"Die, Die" as your thrown to the floor.
"Open him up, rip him apart"
"bleed him dry and crush his heart"
You feel the life slipping, losing your grasp.
You pray for redemption, a final gasp.
Suddenly your lifted and the mist disappears from your sight.
The light of the dawn has ended the night.
Your fear subsides with the rising sun
thankful its over, the torture is done.
But what will happen later this night,
when darkness returns and the spirits take flight?
