Here are some popular Halloween songs and poems bringing the festival to life.
Rufus Jack-o-Lantern
Rufus Jack-o-Lantern
Was a very scary sight,
With triangle eyes, a twisted mouth,
And a huge hole for a nose.
Rufus Jack-o-Lantern
Is a ghost tale so they say,
But the children know how the story goes,
How he came to scare them one day.
There must have been some magic
In the candle mom put in him,
For when they struck a match to it,
He began to laugh at them.
Rufus Jack-o-Lantern
Was alive as he could be,
And the children say he could scream all day
Just like any banshee.
Rufus Jack-o-Lantern
Was a very scary sight,
With triangle eyes, a twisted mouth,
And a huge hole for a nose.
Rufus Jack-o-Lantern
Is a ghost tale so they say,
But the children know how the story goes,
How he came to scare them one day.
He chased them down to the old graveyard
With a broomstick and a mop.
He scared them half to death until
He came to a sudden stop.
Oh, Rufus Jack-o-Lantern,
His time had come to go.
He had to stop his scary chase
When his candle would no longer glow.
Thumpity, thump, thump,
Thumpity, thump, thump,
Look at Rufus go.
Thumpity, thump, thump,
Thumpity, thump, thump,
Watch out or he'll get your TOE!

Over the Graveyard
Over the graveyard and through the tombs,
To the haunted house we go.
The ghosts are a fright,
This spooky night
So come and join the show.
Over the graveyard and through the tombs,
Just hear the dreadful cries,
The banshees howl,
The black cats yowl,
Their shrieking fills the skies.
Over the graveyard and through the tombs,
Where all the goblins meet,
Witches and ghouls
They are no fools,
They all yell, "Trick or Treat."
Over the graveyard and through the tombs,
The jack-o-lanterns gleam.
Bats fill the skies,
With glowing eyes,
Hooray! It's Halloween!

Now Sing We All
Now sing we all,
It's Halloween.
The night of fright has come!
This time of year we wait.
We hope he won't be late.
The Great Pumpkin will come,
The Great Pumpkin will come,
The Great, the GREAT Pumpkin will come.
He comes each year,
On Hallow's Eve.
He's coming here tonight.
Let's go into the pumpkin patch
They'll put us in the booby hatch,
But we will have such fun,
But we will have such fun,
But we, but we will have such fun.
Now sing we all,
It's Halloween.
The night of fright has come!
This time of year we wait.
We hope he won't be late.
The Great Pumpkin will come,
The Great Pumpkin will come,
The Great, the GREAT Pumpkin will come.

Trick or Treat
Dashing through the streets,
Meeting goblins as we go,
Wearing contour sheets,
Wishing it would snow.
Bells in doorways ring,
Making spirits bright,
What fun it is to come and sing
And get some food tonight. Trick or treat, trick or treat,
Trick or treat we say!
Try to get the treats before
The ghost takes us away!
Trick or treat, trick or treat,
Trick or treat we say!
If you don't have treats for us
We'll never go away!

Spirit Wonderland
Screech owls hoot, are you listening?
'Neath the moon, all is glistening.
A real scary sight, we're happy tonight.
Waitin' in a spirit wonderland.
Black cats yowl, can you hear 'em?
Ghosties howl, don't you fear 'em.
A real scary sight, we're happy tonight.
Waitin' in a spirit wonderland.
In the streets, we're begging for some candy.
We've been waiting for this night all year.
We've tried to embarrass everybody,
And to make a costume filling you with fear.
Later on, while we're eatin'
What we got trick or treatin'.
We'll share all our sacks
Of Halloween snacks,
Waitin' in a spirit wonderland.
