(soft chuckle) Come closer, children. Don’t linger in the dark. I’ve been waiting. You’re right on time. Step inside. I kept the light burning just for you. And tonight… Tonight, I’ve prepared something you won’t forget. Now… who’s ready for a little fright?

And some… some are still searching for you. There’s one where she runs and the boots behind her never miss a step in the slaughter house Another… a butcher’s playground, where the walls remember every scream. A hunter’s tale… someone always dies before dawn. And my favorite… the survivors who learned what hunger makes of us. (beat) Don’t look at me like that. We’re only beginning.

That slow, patient rhythm? Something’s walking the ceiling… something’s crawling the dirt below. Don’t turn around. Don’t breathe too loud. Some things only wake up when no one’s watching. [CHORUS 2 — DARK WHISPERED CHANT | DISTORTED ORGAN | HEAVIER STABS | INDUSTRIAL METAL HITS | POUNDING HEARTBEAT | MUSIC SURGES BETWEEN LINES] Welcome to the witching hour. Welcome to the show. There’s a place for every lost soul… and nowhere left to go. Step inside. The stories follow close. The slaughterhouse waits. The hunter stalks. The hungry ones whisper from the dark. Welcome to the witching hour… nowhere left to go.
