Is it the Abomination Vaults?

When the fog is creeping,
And the moon is low;
When the town is sleeping,
Gauntlight starts to glow!

That’s when she arises
For her midnight lunch.
Naughty kids are prizes
For her teeth to crunch.

But if you obey me,
And obey the rules;
You’re safe from Belcorra;
She just eats the fools!

It have might have been the rhyme about the Scarecrow (a golem) which is an adversary in "The Skinsaw Murders" in Book II of Rise of the Runelords. The rhyme itself is not actually in the AP, but it can be found in the appropriate section of the Magnimar sourcebook (CS series).

Mumble Mumble Scarecrow,
Alone in the maize.
Sleeping in the daytime,
A stitched man he stays.
But when the moon she rises,
Up Mumble gets.
He shakes his hands at first
And moves his feet the next.
And when the dog is snoring,
And when you’re fast asleep,
Mumble Mumble Scarecrow
Will find you good to eat.

(Weirdly, while the rhyme is about the Magnimar menace, it's also appropriate for an earlier section of "The Skinsaw Murders".)

Well, like I said, the rhyme itself is not actually in RotR, so if you were hunting for the rhyme alone then you wouldn't have found it in RotR (either version).

The Magnimar sourcebook has both the rhyme and a lot of other useful stuff which was very helpful when I ran RotR for my two groups. :)
