Molly McKane

 

 

Buried in the Forest, is Molly McKane.

She cursed all those who utter her name.

Murdered as a Witch, a wicked old soul.

She was cruel as sin, heart black as coal.

As the flames took hold, no scream or cry.

Vanish did the Sun and black was the sky.

Whisper her name 3 times, it's now said.

And Molly McKane will rise from the dead.

From the bleak Forest, so the legend goes.

Molly McKane, through the years has rose.

Dare say her name 3 times, that deadly call.

And Molly will hunt you down, one and all.

A vengeful spirit, don't wake her from sleep.

As old Molly McKane has a promise to keep.
