Geocache Description:


It was a dark and stormy night. No beam of light.
Dark and stormy, halloWEEn night.

Wash your boots. Brush your hair.
Look around. Get fresh air.

Endless darkness, no way out. No soul to meet.
Is there anything? Under your feet?

The bats were flying. Like halloWEEn Beast.
Facing north. Looking east.

Inside or outside. The wind always blows.
Through the window. Nobody knows.


The door was locked. With fastened chain.
Locked. Blocked. They'll see again.

Waiting by the entrance. Someone was there.
Who did that? When and where?

There was something beside the gates. Near the wall.
Cat or bat? Perhaps not tall.

It was a dark and stormy night. Wrong or right.
Dark and Stormy. That was the night!
