It's Always Rabbits
Dabbling with folk horror drabbles
Edric and Thalia Wickerham, and their daughter Tamsin, arrived at Bwthyn Penllost on a particularly murky day in the Welsh countryside.
For the next several months, Edric would renovate the bwthyn while Thalia would work on her paintings.
"Don't go far!" Thalia called as the girl ran off to explore.
After most of the boxes were moved in, Tamsin reappeared.
"Look, Da!" she said, proudly holding a plump rabbit.
"Get that out," Edric said firmly.
"But Da..."
"I said no."
"Mind your Da," Thalia added.
"Yes, Ma," Tamsin sighed, releasing it just beyond the gate.
Their stay was without incident.
