Id say this spooky poem was definitely your cup of tea. It was great. The setting and the description of the animals that hid. There was a real sense of foreboding in this. Good luck in the contest. Gretchen

Thank you for the great review on my Halloween poem. I avoid writing horror most of the time.

I've got to say that horror is certainly not my genre of choice, but you've done a great job with that horrific creation, my lady! Great rhyme scheme to tell your tale... thanx for sharing and best of luck! ;) Yvette

It may not be your cup of tea, Beth, but I really enjoyed this terrific ghost story in iambic pentameter. You captured the horror of the original event very vividly, as well as what happened to the hapless couple who blundered into this cursed place.
This is the kind of story I used to thrill to at summer camp at night around a campfire. Great job!

I do the occasion horror, but it does not come naturally. I prefer crime with humor. You are sweet. Karen

Thank you for reviewing my Halloween poem. I'm almost reluctant to write violent stuff like this. I appreciate the six stars.

You can join in on any cup of tea that you won't too. It's always good to get outside our comfort zones, but there isn't anywhere you don't seem comfortable. Thanks for sharing.

I don't like horror, but your poem is well written and very creatively told, with its story from the past included with the present situation, all within a poetic framework. Best wishes for the contest.

That poor couple never knew what was coming, poor things. I guess you don't come back from something like that.
For someone who doesn't write horror, you sure did a good job with this, Beth. It had a backstory and was super-creepy.
Your story/poem is told well with just enough rhyming and alliteration. Well done!
Happy Halloween,
xo

For not being your cup of tea, you certainly provided an excellent and very scary entry for the Halloween Poetry competition. Great atmosphere with an easy-flowing, rhythmic recitation of this creepy tale. Very well done!
