(1) I was wrapped in white and buried in my tomb a long time ago. Now, I wait in the dark with my golden treasures all around. Outside the sand piles high over the top of my tomb.

(2) I am a monster that has been on a diet. There is no fat on me! Or muscle either! You might say that I am all skin and bones --without the skin. I rattle when I walk. And my teeth chatter when I talk.

(3) I come from far, far

away. Most people think I

am green and hideous.

But really I am not so

bad. I am just looking

for a few Earthlings to

put in my zoo back on

my home planet.

Who am I?

______________________ Who am I?

______________________ Who am I?

(4) Welcome! Have a seat.

Dinner will be served

shortly. Sorry we don't

have any garlic bread. I

can't stand it. What am I

drinking you ask? Don't

worry . . . it's . . um . . .

grape juice. Now just relax

while I look at your neck.

(5) I walk through walls as I please. Sometimes you can see me and sometimes you can't. I moan and I groan. I rattle chains. You find me in old houses, graveyards, and castles.

(6) Most of the time, you would never guess I was a monster because I look just like you. But once a month, I let my hair down and howl at the moon. But beware! If I bite you will become like me.

Who am I?

_______________________ Who am I?

(7) Made of metal, I

do the work of my

master who controls

me by remote

control. My master

made me take over

the world.

(8) Dressed in black, I

brew potions, I cast

spells, and I put curses

on people. If you bother

me or my cat, you'll sit

on a lily pad and eat

flies.

(9) I live under bridges

and in caves. I eat

travellers that pass my

way. I am large and ugly. I

carry a club. Think of a

word that rhymes with

'roll.'

Who am I?

~ HALLOWEEN ~

By Harry Behn

Tonight is the night

When dead leaves fly

Like witches on switches

Across the sky,

When elf and sprite

Flit through the night

On a moony sheen.

Tonight is the night

When leaves make a sound

Like a gnome in his home

Under the ground,

When spooks and trolls

Creep out of holes

Mossy and green.

Tonight is the night

When pumpkins stare

Through sheaves and leaves

Everywhere,

When ghouls and ghosts

And goblin hosts

Dance round their queen.

It's Halloween.

~~~ A BOO-GRAM GREETING ! ~~~

Green cats eyes

in midnight gloom

fly with the witch

on her ragged broom

Ghosts and shadow people

evade our sight.

None may not see what they might.

We begin our door to door Halloween flight.

Not knowing our immediate blight

we bravely approach your door and RING……

TRICK OR TREAT!!

We say with a strong and mighty grin.

Candy and little toys we hope to gain

from this daring plan imagined in these little brains.

BOOOOO!! We are greeted as a scary hand

extends to our goodie sacks.

The lights go black, we stagger back!!

Screams explode, others jump!!

Dogs howl and unfriendly things give us a bump.

It’s Halloween! The voice screams as

we dump out our goodie sacks and run!

Monsters by Leanne Guenther

M any different creatures walk around
