THE CHESHIRE SPIRAL – HALLOWEEN NIGHT 👻 THE HAUNTED MASK ( 8 / 13) 🎃 PRESAVE ON SPOTIFY https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/the... The Haunted Mask is a classic Goosebumps book by RL Stine about a shy girl, Carly Beth, who buys a terrifying mask from a strange shop to get revenge on bullies If looks could kill Lyrics Maple Avenue burns in orange light Pumpkins grin from every porch Cardboard skeletons sway in the wind Carly Beth crosses the street smiling beneath the mask She loves Halloween But not the way she used to Last year she screamed Last year they laughed Chuck Steve Sabrina The rat in the candy bag The driveway full of spilled sweets Their laughter echoing through the night Not tonight Tonight the screaming belongs to everyone else The half-moon slips behind clouds as the wind stirs the trees Bare branches scratch the sky like claws She grips the broomstick The sculpted head stares forward Watching Waiting Two boys approach in the dark Perfect Her body trembles with anticipation The mask is hot Too hot Her breath rattles inside it Closer Closer NOW She bursts from the shadows with a monstrous howl The boys collapse in terror Their eyes wide Their screams sharp The sound thrills her A deep roar tears from her throat not a sound she meant to make Footsteps A mother rushing down the driveway “Are you scaring my kids?” Carly Beth should apologize She always would have before But something inside the mask burns Anger Hot Hungry “Go away” she snarls The voice that leaves her mouth is not her own Low Animal Ancient Her muscles coil A thought flashes through her mind Rip her apart Tear the skin from her bones The woman stares back in shock The boys pull her away She’s crazy Crazy The word echoes through Carly Beth’s skull The mask tightens Hotter Hungrier She wants to chase them She wants to hurt them Then “Who’s there?” Sabrina stands in the porchlight Cat Woman Carly Beth steps forward slowly “Don’t you recognize me?” Sabrina gasps “That mask... it’s incredible” The praise feeds something dark inside her They walk into the night together Wind whipping leaves across the street Sabrina talks & talks & talks Carly Beth barely hears her All she can feel is the heat The rage The mask breathing with her “Where did you get it?” “Can I touch it?” Her fingers brush the cheek “Why is it so warm?” Something snaps “SHUT UP!” Carly Beth lunges forward hands clamping around Sabrina’s throat For a moment she almost squeezes Sabrina stumbles back in terror Carly Beth freezes What did I just do? “Gotcha” she laughs nervously. “Just a joke” But even she doesn't believe it They reach the first house Two small children open the door The little girl trembles at the sight of her Carly Beth leans close “I’ll eat you” The girl screams Candy drops into their bags But the thrill isn’t enough Carly Beth laughs & runs into the yard The night continues More houses More frightened faces An apple instead of candy She hurls it at the house Another The gutter rings like a bell “Carly Beth... something’s wrong with you” Sabrina whispers. Carly Beth doesn’t answer Inside the mask something else is smiling 🎃 FULL ALBUM    • The Haunted Mask [Djent / Metalcore / Deat...   #Djent #Goosebumps #ConceptAlbum #TheHauntedMask #Metalcore #Deathcore #Metal #DeathMetal #Prog #Thall #Technical #Progressive #HeavyMetal #TechDeath #Heavy #Scary #Spooky #Creepy #Eerie #Ethereal #Atmospheric #Haunting #Halloween #Horror #ChildrensHorror #KidsHorror #ViewersBeware #CarlyBeth #Haunted #Mask #Story #Concept #Album #Music #Song #Lyrics #Tale #RLStine #Fear #GhostStory #Haunt #Possession #Possessed #Demon #Monster #HalloweenMask #TechnicalMetal #TechnicalMetalcore #ProgressiveMetal #ProgMetal #ProgressiveMetalcore #ProgressiveDeathMetal #TechnicalDeathcore #ProgressiveDeathcore #Rock #Aliencore #PostHardcore #Swancore #MathRock #Emo #Screamo #Punk #Alternative #HardRock #MetalMusic #MetalAlbum #RockAlbum #Book #Audio #Audiobook #Narration #Characters #Prank #Worms #WormSandwich #Slappy #MapleAvenue #October #Fall #Autumn #ProgRock #ProgressiveRock #MathMetal #Chuck #Steve #Sabrina #MaskShop #Terror #Face #Faces #Masks #TheUnloved #Unloved #SymbolOfLove #Love #Mother #Brother #TheMaskShop #Costume #CostumeShop #Night #HalloweenNight #PlasterHead #Heads #Head #TwoHeadsAreBetterThanOne #HeadOnAStick #Scare #Bullies #Breakdowns #Breakdown #Slam #Shred #Riffs #Riff #Shredding #Grooves #Groovy #Groove #Chugs #ChugPatterns #OddTimeSignature #Polyrhythm #MetricModulation #Syncopation #Bounce #Screaming #Gutteral #Growls #Singing #Melodic #Hardcore #TechnicalDeathMetal #MetalcoreAlbum #DeathcoreAlbum #DjentAlbum #Conceptual #CarlyBeth #Literature #Writing #Read #Reading #Scholastic #Bookfair #90s #1990s #1993 #Nostalgic #Nostalgia #TimJacobus #Artwork #Art #BookCover #CoverArt #Painting #TimJacobusArt #BlastBeats #Drums #Guitar #Vocals #Bass #Instrumental #Intro #Theme #TwistEnding #Thriller #Musical #Cinematic #Visualizer #Theatrical
