These are two of the best Werewolf transformations to ever hit the cinema screen.
Graphic content. Sensitive audiences beware.
A quick one night stand
Dusting off the marriage rust
Lust and ecstasy

Back to the routine
A normal day to day life
One night stand erased

Two quick weeks later
Man finds a bloody bundle
Laying on his desk
Moonlight casting rays,
buttery light fills the ground,
the night is alive,
with nocturnal sound.
What hides inside the shadows?
Creeps among the black,
using this golden light,
only for attack.
Is it a Werewolf?
Transformed by the moon,
or some other creature,
awoken to soon.
A simple pay day
One job – lots and lots of cash
Two very rich men

An abandoned house
Nestled in a dark forest
Ancient and empty

I hear dead people,
talking through machines.
I hear dead people,
talking crisp and clean.
Movement above me
Something in the attic dark
Stirring all about
She floats – transparent
Ghost descending down the stairs
She evaporates
I am cold upon this floor,
in the spot I lie.
embers – out
blizzard – strong
I lift a gentle sigh,
breath white in front of me.
The snow – all around.
Entombed
Peace I finally see.
Ghost in the dark hall
Fading into nothingness
Vanishing from view

Yum, I say,
as this rat chews soft.
Yum, I say,
while sitting in my loft.
Damn, I say,
as the days drift long.
Damn, I say,
it’s all gone wrong.
Embers almost cold,
my will is weak,
food – gone
I start to seek.
Any type of food,
anything to turn,
away this hunger mood,
anything, please, I yearn.
Watching the snow fall,
chilling my desire,
waiting on a sign of hope,
dying embers in the fire.
Trapped like a beast,
within the blizzard of snow,
food – scarce
my bones begin to show.
Haunted?
Cursed.
Trapped?
Inside.

The lamp – the object,
is cursed.
We’ve seen it turn on.
Hidden in the attic.
Sitting all alone.
No current, no electricity.
Does the spirit linger?
In objects,
once the body passes on.
Forever – eternal.
Never truly gone.
Do objects have a special place?
Some residual energy.
Do objects hold the key?
To all the spirits you hear and see.
Victim’s will be taken,
with the piercing of a bite.
Warm soft blood,
eternal living from dying light.
Hear the eerie wind whistle, across the cold dark night,
see the unknown figure, float into sight.
Slowly it drifts, pale and transparent.
It stops and looks at me.
I look at it.
Its eyes are not there, only sockets full of despair.
A smile rises across its face,
the grin is pure evil and full of pain,
it raises an arm and points to the right,
towards the graveyard just out of sight.
I freeze at the window and shake at the knees.
A cold sweat creeps down my back, just like I’m under attack.
I scream at the top of my lungs, “Go away leave me alone!”
It drops its arm and dissolves with a cold chilly laugh.
