Night of the Evil Bunnies
In a half-forgotten town where children dare not speak of what the darkness breeds,The clock stutters and the porch lights flicker, failing to push back ancient weeds.The wind claws at the siding as if some memory gnaws beneath the paint,Every room a pressure chamber, every hallway whispering restraint.Legends crawl along the baseboards—stories of the rabbits with carnivore’s hunger,Born from a midnight myth, older than the city’s cemeteries, deeper than any slumber.
It begins with a static in the core, a cold pulse through the insulation and wires,Windows fog and curtains twitch as if every thread is catching on spectral fires.They arrive in a ragged procession, pelts matted with cemetery loam,Ears twitching, eyes rimmed in rust, jaws flecked with the residue of old bones.Tiny claws slip beneath the door’s warped seal, scuttling in time with a fevered prayer,Each footfall a blasphemy, each shadow on the wall a dare.
No cradle is safe, no lover’s bed immune to their patient, skittering advance,They nest beneath the cracked foundations, gnawing through every last chance.Forget the schoolyard tales of moonlit hunts and sugar-coated dreams—These rabbits gnash, these rabbits scream.Incisors gleaming, faces caked in the dust of centuries gone rotten,An unbroken bloodline of malice from the forgotten.
Every corner of the house is an ambush, every attic harbors teeth,They slip through the piping, the vents, the crawlspace beneath.A child glimpses a shadow, shrinks from the claws curling under the bed,But it’s not just the young who feel the tremor; it’s every soul with dread.Stiff whiskers twitching, crimson pupils dilated by stolen sleep,No warning before the bite, no mercy in the leap.
Some remember the night the town priest vanished,Last seen in the rectory, door chewed open, vestments slashed.Old records say the rabbits first rose after a fire scorched the north field,But all attempts to explain them end with names no grave has sealed.Neighbors barricade their doors, packing salt along the sills,But the evil bunnies slip through cracks, immune to every pill.
They’re small, they’re nearly silent, but their hunger carves a hole in the world,What they take isn’t just flesh, but peace, and every secret unfurled.Someone’s fingers, trembling, trace the claw marks in the dust,While the family pet lies cold in the grass, its eyes glazed with ancient mistrust.The rabbits move in silence, a choir of hisses, squeals, and claws,No plea will be answered, no defense—just the law of their jaws.
On nights when the wind howls, don’t trust the lull of routine or the hush after prayers,Because in the places between sleep and waking, the evil bunnies plot in pairs.Under every floorboard, behind each chipped stone, their colony grows,Their writhing bodies pulse beneath the town like an ache nobody shows.If one should glimpse them, fur blackened, eyes like cauterized wounds,The only mercy is in not surviving the night’s doom.
Long after the screams have faded and the house has grown cold,People find odd stains and pellets, reminders of the stories the old folks told.No one believes in monsters until they feel them burrowing beneath their skin,Until rabbit teeth press against their throat and the real hunt begins.The evil bunnies do not vanish with daylight—they become part of the walls,Waiting for night to unravel again, answering nothing but hunger’s calls.
Those who survive whisper to anyone foolish enough to linger or pry,Don’t trust anything soft in the dark, don’t meet the glare of a bloodshot rabbit’s eye.Some horrors come in fangs and drool, in howls and breaking glass,But here, the soft shuffle of paws is the promise: you’re never alone in the grass.Evil wears many shapes—tonight it’s fur, claws, and the cold of a century’s hate,And no one escapes the night the bunnies came, not the quick, not the brave, not the late.
