do you like to be scared



Do you like to be scared - Well I hope that you do

So gather real close cause I'm gonna say boo


What is orange and green and lives on your porch

Has a hole in the middle just right for a torch

It has jaggedy teeth and triangular eyes

If you said a pumpkin, I'd say you are wise


Do you like to be scared - Well I hope that you do

So gather real close cause I'm gonna say boo


What is black as the night with a scary green face

And she rides on her broomstick all over the place

Her cackle will boil the blood in your veins

If you said a witch then I'd say you have brains


Do you like to be scared - Well I hope that you do

So gather real close cause I'm gonna say boo


What is like you and me when the sun's shining bright

But turns hairy and scary with a full moon in sight

His howling will stop all the beats of your heart

If you said a werewolf I'd say you are smart


Do you like to be scared - Well I hope that you do

So gather real close cause I'm gonna say boo


What is white as your bones and flies through the air

On Halloween night it will give you a scare

It comes from the grave and it likes to say Oooooooo

If you said a ghost well there's no fooling you


Do you like to be scared - Well I hope that you do

So gather real close

I said gather real close

cause I'm gonna say boo

Alternate Ghost ending

You think somethings moving when there's no one in sight

If you said a ghost then I'd say you are right


Additional Verse

Who sleeps upside down underneath your front deck

And has fangs that will pierce all the skin in your neck

He can turn to a bat and fly off through the sky

If you said it is Dracula, you’re a smart guy



do you like to be scared - Behind the Scenes



Making up riddles with children is lots of fun.

There is an easy formula to this song.

1) Choose something about Halloween

2) Describe what you are thinking about in the first three lines

3) Give the answer and congratulate the listeners in line four


The most difficult part of making up each verse is following the song's cadence and rhyme scheme.

Go ahead give it a try.


In 2017, I had some free time on October 30th.

It was a beautiful but windy fall day.

I didn't have anyone around to help me but I wanted to make a Halloween video.

I was able to film Do You Like To Be Scared with my IPhone and some free images from the public domain.



Forgot My Oars

do you like to be scared
find a color
five pancakes
Forgot my oars

good to have you here
one that got away
pretend you're a rocket
shake an egg
swimming up the river
Up in the sky
