"All I wanted was a house haunted and eerie!!"
"A moaning and groaning retreat for the dreary!!"
It was tall, it was regal....it had character galore!
The old house I spotted......on the Dark Lake Shore!
The sign said, "For Sale: Contents Included".
It looked wonderfully haunted...ghostly polluted!
I called the agent...a lady named "Wart"
And made an appointment, to see the old fort!
"Just promise it's haunted", I begged the old witch.
The sale went through with nary a hitch!
I was soon to discover, with ample alarm....
That my spirits were misfits from "Ye Olde Spirits Farm"!
There was Harriet the Witch, who was scared of herself,
And spent most of her time in a box on a shelf!
There was "BOO" who soon proved that he wasn't all there...
Whose best joke was to drape himself over my chair!
And then there's the triplets, as cute as can be...
But not very scarey if you want to ask me!
The scariest thing in the whole haunted house...
Is this skittering and jittering little, pesky Ghostmouse!
So you see that my dream of owning a home...
With ghouls and monsters that shriek and moan...
Is not going to happen, so I just babysit...
These sweet and disturbed, rejected misfits.
Now I must go get Igor, who with his small brain.....
Hasn't the sense.....to come out of the rain!
