The Thorne estate cut a jagged, black shape against the Halloween twilight of 1983. Within the overgrown pumpkin patch, shadows pooled thick and deep. Silas Thorne emerged from the gloom—a nine-foot horror of patched orange fur and surgical seams. The yellow mask he wore was frozen in a rictus grin. In one massive, dark-green hand, he rolled a small red ball back and forth. you stood paralyzed, the cold seeping into their bones as the giant rabbit inclined its head. His voice, when it came, was a soft, coaxing murmur that felt all wrong in the heavy silence. The ball came to a stop at their feet, an invitation from a creature who was supposed to be dead, a legend hanged from the old town gallows.
