The Pub sign depicted a horned devil like creature
the exterior had an unwelcome feel
this was the attraction to visitors the weird feature
it certainly had that ghoulish appeal
rumours told of witchcraft and human sacrifice
the entire building was not nice!
Sacrificial blood its said was used to paint the sign
implements of torture and knives
adorned dark walls of irregular and uneven design
where a stench of death survives
from every corner there seems some movement
often faint voices in torment!
Hooded figures are often seen inside and without
though often considered spectral
stories suggest some are mortal creating doubt
in caves below the cult goes on
the practice never ended the dead cannot rest
and with visitors emotions jest!
The village a hamlet lost in a medieval time line
the old pub the central core
the church now a ruin after going into decline
an unexplained fire years before
the pub sign draws your attention like a beacon
causing resistance to weaken!
Yet the tourists come in search of its unholy past
even the sceptics leave unnerved
tainted by questions of its history the legend cast
whatever the truth its observed
that repugnant awareness takes away rationality
that has led to insanity!
It start with the first glance of The Pub Sign!
