‘You are cordially invited,’
The enchantingly embossed
Card explained,
‘To a Grand party for Halloween.
Costumes will, of course, be mandatory,
With a Revolutionary France theme.’
I naturally dressed
As a member of the Vendée.
I followed the lovely warble
Of the nightingale,
As no one can resist its sweet
Enchanting trill.
Having walked through
An opaque fog,
I arrived at last
At the intended address.
Alas, to my unspeakable horror,
It was no mere party.
I was truly in
Revolutionary France.
Now that’s scary!

Yes any party that goes back to the late eighteenth centry is always such big trouble
