Countdown to Horrorthon Contest! 3 days to go: Horror Cliché Haiku Hump Day!!


Becky screamed in dread
The bloody words on the wall
Would take days to clean

I think you know how to do this, folks. It's Wednesday and I've declared a surprise assault on the sanctity of Eastern poetry. Think of some overused, beloved/hated horror movie cliché and give me 17 syllables on it. As an added bonus I will actually declare a winner when I post tomorrow's contest. But you're all winners!

Boobs bounce in moonlight
Machete glint in the pines
Have sex and you die

The week keeping us from Horrorthon is halfway over! Wax poetic!

(But also, scroll down. Jordan and I both have new posts up.)

Hey man!

There's so much great stuff downstream in the blog, and I haven't gone near any of it (and then I keep concluding that there's no point because the posts have disappeared and nobody will read any subsequent posts).

Thanks! But I'm afraid your haikus are just awful.

We love our new house
"Get out!" the house doth demand
Nah, let's piss it off

A creepy old book
Cool let's read some passages
Demon kills the lot

When exploring stuff
remember famous last words

Main road has traffic
Here's a dark dusty shortcut
Hey, what could go wrong?

Mom's little angel

Weird guy wants me dead
Well of all the rotten luck
Stupid car won’t start

Johnny Sweatpants said...

"You're all gonna die!"
Why should we listen to him?
He's just an old drunk

Catfreeek said...

I killed the bad guy
that single stab wound should do
drop weapon and sob

what he's up again
I'll just run away screaming
that should scare him

Catfreeek said...

Girl causes bad thing
all friends die protecting her
girl lives makes sequel

Catfreeek said...

Where is everyone?
All alone in this ghost town
could it be the plague

Octopunk said...

'Tis a good question
Even a good slasher flick
Starts out with more peeps

I can get away!
I will run barefoot through this
darkened woods. Oops! Tripped!

DKC said...

Don't go in there? Why?
It's just an abandoned shed
with sharpened farm tools.
