The Thing-That-Goes-Bump-in-the-Night

It’s 12 pm and I’m getting prepared, to give some nice people a fright. I’m such a big lump and I’m going to jump, ‘cos I’m a Thing-that-Goes-Bump-in-the-Night. It’s a limited occupation, with quite a rigid routine, Just a bang and a groan, in some person’s home and it helps if you sound a bit mean!

The master of the dead
