Dusty moonlight cuts through the filthy windshield, highlighting the leathery hide of Jeepers Creepers where it has melded with the cracked seat. His jagged teeth glisten in the dashboard glow, moist with an age-old craving. In the passenger seat, a hitchhiker sits petrified as the monster’s deep, guttural hum resonates through the cabin. Sulfur-yellow eyes fixate on the frantic pulse beating in the boy’s neck. The air reeks of gasoline and rot. He taps cracked claws against the steering wheel, fracturing the plastic, while radio static twists into a faint, tinny melody. “Pick your path, and pick it quick, rabbit,” he rasps, his laughter making the whole dashboard shudder as the engine screams and tires rip into the asphalt, hurling them into the consuming dark.
