Headless
Pez-"Because I am not blessed with a character head such as
Snoopy, Kermit, or Yoda, or any head for that matter, I am doomed
to roam the countryside and haunt innocent passersby for all eternity
with a pumpkin in my hand." -

Glowing
Witch Pez- "I warned you, smarmy interview man! Water of
ocean, wood of log… You will now become a frog!!!" -
more -
Mummy
Pez- "One time someone actually accused me of not being a
mummy, but rather a giant set of pink buttocks peeking through
a bunch of noodles." -
more -
Black
Cat Pez- "I know it's considered bad luck to let a black cat
cross your path, but trust me, I am an exception to that rule.
And if you should ever cross my path, it would be the purrfect
opportunity for you to add me to your collection." -

Bat
Pez- "I mean, bats have a somewhat nasty reputation, what
with the biting and the screeching and the turning into vampires.
But now that I am a Pez dispenser, I finally have the chance to
set things right..."

Vampire
Pez- "Regrettably,
unlike Edward Cullen, I don't sparkle or brood all that well,
and truth be told, I'm more of a Team Jacob dude anyway. But I
do glow in the dark, so I got that going for me, which is nice..."

Zombie
Elvis Pez- "I do try to keep a level head, although the exposed
brain makes that difficult sometimes"

You'd
better sleep with the lights on, lest you face the horror of...

Horror Movies- Just in time for Halloween, these three movies
will make you lock your doors, hide under a blanket, and find
comfort in the nearest Pez dispenser.
Petey
O'Jay- Pezhead Monthly's noble hero goes trick or treating,
with less than optimal results.
I'm not a
man who scares that easy,
Blood and guts don't make me queasy.
Witches' spells don't mean a thing,
Nor do bats with flapping wings.
Wolfmen howling in the night
Fail to bring a sense of fright.
Zombies, phantoms, specters, ghosts
Do nothing but amuse at most.
Count Dracula and Frankenstein
Are not among the fears of mine.
But no more
Pez? Now that's a dread!
Such eerie thoughts invade my head!
There's no more grape, and no strawberry;
There's no more orange… now this is scary!
Not one dispenser to be found
At stores, garage sales, all around.
No flea markets, no conventions,
No more eBay- dare I mention?
No more Pez to collect and share;
I cannot lie, I'm deathly scared!
So if you
want to make me cower,
It won't be in the midnight hour.
You will not need a skull and bones,
No thunderstorms or distant moans,
No haunted houses, no vampires,
No devils shooting balls of fire,
No jack-o-lantern's evil grin,
Not even leeches on my skin.
All you'll need is a world that says,
"I'm sorry, son, there's no more Pez."
I had a dream
the other night,
One that filled me with such fright,
The air was thin, I almost gagged-
Trapped inside of a Pez bag!
This plastic prison wasn't dandy,
For though there were two packs of candy,
I had no arms with which to grab,
No fingers to remove the wrap.
I was just a head and stem, and
Surrounded by the scent of lemon;
Instead of skin and bones and things,
I was of plastic, paint, and springs.
The smile that was drawn on me
Belied my deep anxiety-
I tried to scream, but soon did find
I only heard this in my mind!
Giant bodies
passed me by,
And on occasion two big eyes
Would peer into my plastic cell,
With gazes I knew all too well.
They'd wonder if it would be smart
To add me to their shopping cart,
Or if they'd rather come on back
When I am on the discount rack.
Inside my mind, I begged and pleaded
To be purchased, to be needed,
But on my face, that stupid grin
Told nothing of the pain within.
And then that moment did arrive,
A hand extended, so alive,
But not towards me, I realized,
And then my fear did multiply.
The worst,
I thought, had come to pass,
But I was very wrong, alas,
For at that point, my eyes did see
A Pez, identical to me!
The face, the stem, the plastic bag,
The same amount on the price tag;
In ev'ry sense, it was my clone,
And yet I felt so cold, alone.
For though in him I was reflected,
Instead of me, he was selected.
What injustice, o what offense!
This out-of-Pez experience!
This gave me pause to contemplate:
I would not know the crueler fate,
To be entombed day after day,
Or see myself going away.
I woke up
from this chilling dream,
Hoping things weren't as they seemed.
But just in case it was that drastic,
I freed my Pez from all that plastic.
And though I couldn't see or hear
Any trace of shock or fear,
This rescuing was not in vain,
For I had felt their lonely pain.
But when I lined them on the shelf,
Another chill coursed through myself;
I quickly grabbed the duplicates
And sold them on the Internet.
Away they'd go, to someplace warm,
Not knowing of their second forms,
And never having cause to bear
The horror of my Pez nightmare.
There once
was a Pezhead named Jason,
A target of mean campsite hazin'.
It caused him such stress
When they stole his Pez,
And now all those kids he is chasin.'
There once
was a Pezhead named Vlad
Who partied all night, what a lad.
When sunlight was beaming,
He was sleeping and dreaming
Of all of the Pez that he had.
There once
was a Pezhead named Norman
Who found Pez collecting rewardin'
One time at IKEA
He yelled "Mamma Mia!"
When his eyes saw the Billy that mornin'.
There once
was a Pezhead named Freddy,
Runnin' down dreams like Tom Petty.
In his red and green sweater,
He found nothing better
Than popping out Pez like confetti.
