LYRICS:

There is a man in the woods
He watching!
There is a man in the woods
He watching!
He is a creature, a ghost, he stalking
You can't escape
His Voodoo he
Haunting

Call me, Horned King
Magic Throne,
Got red dreads and threads of bone
Wendigo the bell tolls

If I die, still got my homie
In my time, demons told
Look upon the spells of old

Hexes hang don't care for money
More of a killer than the king of crows

No love before, unless it was that time
He met woman and she was so crazy
He thinks about her almost all the time
He can give you anything you want baby

There is a man in the woods
He watching!
There is a man in the woods
He watching!
He is a creature, a ghost, he stalking
You can't escape
His Voodoo he
Haunting

Real creeper in the back of the classroom
Looks like a super model like a cat dude
Not a neko just a hungry ass wack dude

Kinda silent but he cooking food in the backroom
Got raised, but he son of the hag rage
Got mission, a goal he got real fate

Destined to end the world its a shame
Peaked when he won the trial of the war mage

There is a man in the woods
He watching!
There is a man in the woods
He watching!
He is a creature, a ghost, he stalking
You can't escape
His Voodoo he
Haunting

He got friends, he got love
He got kids, he got gold
But all of it, went in the snow
He knows, he's gone, his daughter lives on
His son stronger than Khorvon

There is a man in the woods
He watching!
There is a man in the woods
He watching!
He is a creature, a ghost, he stalking
You can't escape
His Voodoo from
Haunting


CHARACTER LORE:
This song is about an NPC in my tabletop game, Whu Whu Wizards, which centers on a secret order of wizards who reside in a floating black castle drifting through space. The character in question is Alo “The Horned King,” father of player character Sora Evergreen, from my 2015 fantasy setting The World of S@LT. Alo belongs to the BlackRock Society and is often called “The Wendigo” or “The Hex Master” by his fellow BlackRock wizards. Renowned for his power and adventures across the continent of Quel’Thulaz, he won BlackRock’s War Mage trial four years in a row. Like all BlackRock wizards, he was destined either to become a savior or to unleash terrible doom. During his travels with allies known as The Mind of Meridian and Marcus Mutarecaelum, he met and fell in love with a wandering barbarian woman named Fern. Alo and his crew spent many years attempting to thwart the League of Mog. Ultimately, Alo sacrificed himself to protect the children he had with Fern (Sora & Allen) from her father, Khorvon Khass. Now, The Mind of Meridian contains his “demon” spirit to keep him from succumbing to madness and causing widespread destruction. Alo watches from the shadows as his children grow up without him The Horned King’s golden glory lost, at least for now.
