Incorpeal

I was sent to investigate
Strange happenings in a house
A family tormented endlessly
By strange noises in the night

Desperate for their sanity
They hired me to banish this being
A dark cloaked entity
That they believe to be a ghost

Crashes in the night
Flickering lights
And the smell of rotten flesh

Is what greeted me
On my first night at this property
Prepared to rid this place
Of this energy

Ecee Crucem Domini
Fugite Partes Adversae
Ab Insidiis diaboil
Libera Nos Domine
(Behold the cross of the lord
Flee away ye hostile foces
From the shores of the devil
Deliver us O' Lord)

After my prayer
And spread of holy water
The house fell silent
But not for long

Everything begins to shake
Heavy breathing, behind my ear
My ritual just provoked
This dark presence

Furniture thrown
Across the room
Pools of blood
Formed beneath me

Screams! Rape! Murder!
A spectral voice
Screams! Hung! Gallows!

The family watched in horror
As their house was torn apart
Slashed pictures and sporadic lights
Cold gusts of wind from every corner

They blamed me for this anger
Set loose inside their home
My ritual upset the spectre
I must learn more to contain this ghost...

In the 16th century
This exact spot was the town gallows
There was a monk hung
For the rape and murder of a young girl

He wore a black robe
Cursed and hexed the entire town
But his spirit still dwells
And preys on the family in this house

The horror ignites
The screams that fill the air tonight
I prepared the second ritual
Salt circles and the essence of sage

Blood and water drip from the ceiling
Putting out the candles
And gusts of wind
Disrupting the circles of salt

My last chance to rid this
Place of this paranormal curse
I get ready the prayer
And scream with all my breath

Ecee Crucem Domini
Fugite Partes Adversae
Ab Insidiis diaboil
Libera Nos Domine
(Behold the cross of the lord
Flee away ye hostile foces
From the shores of the devil
Deliver us O' Lord)

All fell silent
The family roused
My the commotion
All of a sudden
The crucifix on the mantle
Began to float and invert itself
We all looked upon it in shock and disbelief

Screams pierced the air
From the daughter of the family
On the stairs
Being dragged up with force
By the neck
A grey and ghostly hand
Lacerates
Leaving bruises on her throat
Make my way
To the stairs with holy water
Pouring it
On the girl and the darkness
Clouds of steam
And an unearthly howl
Through the air
Finally brought peace and banished this being...
