The Hickman Cemetery Horror

Deep down within the sleepy hills, there is a place

A Cemetery, where the dead shall never rest

Nothing there remains...but ancient graves

No corpse has been set within the ground...

for countless ages

And the legends of the locals say

At night something lurkes between the monuments of death and decay

Down at Hickman Cemetery

The last caretaker, old man Hickman

He has said he regrets the day he locked the gates

and stopped puttinig bodies into the earth

For closing the graveyard brought upon them the worst

Because the things the locals see

Live beneath the tombs, in catacombs they reside

Wasting away, starving deep inside, emaciated ghouls, slowly they die

Then one night they came, while close across the street

old man Hickmans daughter in bed fast asleep

She did not hear them

As the window opened

Frenzied from starvation

Not upon the dead with they eat

But the supple flesh of the living will be thier feast

The very next morning Hickman found what remained

Human teeth and bones

And a trail of blood...leading to the graves

What the search party found they kept locked away

Deep within the ground

Safe and sound, as long as THEY feed

So the townsfold reopened the Cemetery
