These should be a bit easier.

Eerie occurings
in your suburban district.
Who shall you summon?

An arc and two dots
on a smooth field of yellow.
Answer without words.

Place, not TV show
Boomclickclickboomclickclickboom
Back, and to the left

I can accept that, although the answer on the card is George Herbert Walker Bush. This makes the anagram work.
