The Lyrics
Try to guess the movie spin-off of this historical Urban Tale...
This urban tale was true?
Unspeakable crimes
Three kids, Ouija knew
Entity speakin'
Of a real sick man
Albino mistreated, pea coat & large hat
1930s trains carried him around
People often misspoke of him
They were murdered, graveward bound
In grotesque ways often found...
This urban tale was true?
Unspeakable crimes
Or wicked lies?
Dog was Gloom
Flesh consumed
His name meant doom
Don't think or say it
Living beware
His insanity
Hideous face, couldn't bear it
Your precious flesh- he'd tear it!
Murder spree
This urban tale was true?
Identified or denied?

The line 'don't think or say it' gave it away. It's the horror film Bye-Bye Man. It's in Schneck's historical book President's Vampire: Strange-But-True Tales of the United States of America. An old and odd book I read in college. So what did I win?
Two coins: one silver, one gold!!! Heh-heh!
