Satire Nightmare: Night Terrors That Tickle
Writing the Satire
Nightmares satires dark – tickle them light. Target a scare: “Monster growls – I pet it.” Hit the fear – shadows, shrieks: “Night says run – I nap.” Keep it fun – grim flops. Write: “Terror says boo – I laugh.” Poes gloom inspires. Start yours: “Dark says flee – I stay.” Practice turns fright into fun.
Teaching the Technique
Teach nightmare jabs with a scare twist. Give “ghost comes” – twist: “Ghost so fierce, I hugged!” Show Poe gags – dark, zing. Steps: fear, quirk, jab. Assign “shriek night” – spark: “Shriek so loud, I slept!” Discuss fun: light wins. Warn off gloom – tickle rules. Night-off: pitch a terror, best tickle wins. Nightmares are spooks – teach them to spook it.
