Easter
is this coming Sunday, and if you grew up before the '90s or so, then you
probably remember that the Easter Bunny, like Santa Claus, would come to the
local mall, where you could go get pictures taken with it. Maybe this still happens, but I haven't
noticed it in quite some time. Even now
that I have kids who firmly believe the Eastern Bunny is coming on Sunday to
deliver them "presents and chocolate coins" -- not sure where they
got either of those –- I haven't seen any advertisements for, or heard anything about, any giant Easter
Bunnies or photo ops with said giant Easter Bunnies. There may be a good reason for that.
Check out this fantastic gallery of "19
Vintage Easter Bunny Photos That Will Make Your Skin Crawl." (Thanks to Adam for the link.) Perhaps the reason there are fewer Easter Bunnies nowadays is because it's impossible to make a human dressed as giant bunny look anything but psychotic, especially after Donnie Darko.
#5 has to be the creepiest.
#7 is apparently what passed for a bunny in the Depression.
#8 is pretty solid, given the look on both kids' faces.
#11 looks like one of Rust's drawings from True Detective. The Yellow King has been at it for longer than we thought.
#18 is every child's nightmare -- who you believe to be a benevolent holiday mascot is actually a kidnapper.
#19 is simply demonic. Dear God, those eyes. And is that blood on its right hand? Children's blood?
