If it's in a word...
10 years ago
Or it's in a look,
you can't get rid
of the Babadook.
If you're a really clever one,
And know what it is to see
Then you can make friends with a special one
A friend of you and me.
A rustling sound then three sharp knocks
Ba-ba Ba-Dook Dook Dook
That's when you'll know that he's around.
You'll see him if you look.
This is what he wears on top.
He's funny, don't you think?
See him in your room at night,
And you won't sleep a wink.
Let me in.
I'll soon take off my funny disguise
(take heed of what you've read)
And once you see what's underneath...
You're going to wish you were dead.
The story of Mister Babadook from The Babadook. I'm glad that some movies remember what real horror should be like (not just endless jump scares). If I ever have kids, I'm totally going to read them this story just for the fun of freaking them out. Nothing like taking what at first appears to be a children's story and turning it evil to really scare the pants of someone. :P
