Mares and filles, all colts around,
Here to bring you the ghoulish sounds,
The sensation the occasion sure to bring you fright,

That one time of year known as nightmare night,

We all dress up, go trick or treatin',

'cause it's candy what we want and we'll soon be eating,
Gotta make sure to leave some for nightmare moon,
To make sure she doesn't come back any time soon,


Who do I go as this year?
Gotta make sure that I strike the most fear,

Do I go as a shadowbolt or an ursa major,
Or perhaps discord? Nah, that's way too major,


All I know is I'm gonna have fun,
I'm gonna make it my mission to scare everyone,
'cause it's nightmare night, come on, don't be late,

Get your scares ready, oh boy I can't wait.

Do you feel that chill in the air?
Not knowing if the ghouls are either here or there,

Don't be silly, filly, it's a beautiful sight,
It's the best time of year, it's nightmare night.


Do you feel that chill in the air?
Not knowing if the ghouls are either here or there,
Don't be silly, filly, it's a beautiful sight,

It's the best time of year, it's nightmare night.

CHORUS

Ponies dressed up on this holiday,
And the little fillies start to run away,
Cause they've got their candy and they're running soon,

Now to give their offering to Nightmare Moon
This is Nightmare Night, what a fright, give me something sweet to bite


So why do we celebrate nightmare night?
Well let me tell you a story, and some insight,
The lunar protector of equestria,

Her name is nightmare moon, the sister of celestia,

She was banished for a thousand years,

When she eventually returned, all of our fears,
Of revenge and chaos and forsable anarchy,
But we're apparently safe if we leave her some candy?


It's whack I know, it makes no sense
Well when you're younger though, it's quite immense,

But alas it's a night where we can all have fun,
And since when did having fun ever harm anyone?


So we'll trick or treat, play games and have fun,
'cause the proceedings of tonight have only just begun,
So I'll treasure this night, ain't got no fear,

'cause nightmare night's my favorite time of the year

Do you feel that chill in the air?

Not knowing if the ghouls are either here or there,
Don't be silly, filly, it's a beautiful sight,
It's the best time of year, it's nightmare night.


Do you feel that chill in the air?
Not knowing if the ghouls are either here or there,

Don't be silly, filly, it's a beautiful sight,
It's the best time of year, it's nightmare night.


CHORUS

BREAK

Ever wonder why the air's so cold,
And you feel a chill running down your spine?
It's cause Nightmare Moon now stalks your soul,

Sacrifice your sweets on this Nightmare Night,

CHORUS
Ponies dressed up on this holiday,
And the little fillies start to run away,

Cause they've got their candy and they're running soon,
Now to give their offering to Nightmare Moon
Now they've pleased their lord and they're on their way,
Let's just hope to Celestia she's not here to stay,
Now the kids are safe and Nightmare Moon's not here,

Now can't wait to do it all again next year
