It was the town of Staunton Where the murder did occur On demon's night in '83 He escaped into the world For in her chair dead as stone Lady Higgin's life did end The old b**h gave him candy But the devil gave him sin A hatchet buried through her chest Had split her everywhere And through the window Sat her corpse as sirens filled the air On foot the madam wandered Deep into the night As costumes children stood and stared at this Butchered, twisted fright Demon's night, on demons night The devil comes alive Demons night, it's demons night See the evil in his eyes Tonight is the night when dead leaves fly like Witches across the sky The legend lurks from asylum black and k**s into the night Bury the hatchet!!! Evil comes from within Bury the hatchet!!! While evil commits the sin Demon's night, on demons night The devil comes alive Demons night, it's demons night See the evil in his eyes The western state asylum was Soon closed forever more The unsolved crime got locked away But the nightmare had been born and Every year on Halloween There's a gleam that fills his eyes And rest a**ured by November first That someone else has died Demon's night, on demons night The devil comes alive Demons night, it's demons night See the evil in his eyes
