Read it, feared him, then hated him, looking back I just feel so sorry for him, and what he could have been.

"Honey Boo Boo" or her mother.

I was in my early teens and reading Watership Down in bed when I got a part where a maimed rabbit from the old down is mistaken for some sort of evil spirit.. I remember feeling scared reading it, but couldn't relive the experience when I read it again a few years later.

The mother lost a lot of weight. She looks somewhat decent now.

>Unu the Phlegm of Cancer was a forgotten beast. An enormous scaly tarantula. It has a broad shell and it undulates rhythmically. Its pumpkin scales are oval-shaped and overlapping. Beware its poisonous bite!

I wouldn't worry about anything in this thread! Books aren't scary and honestly you shouldn't concern yourself with anything above or below this thread. Just move on to another thread and
don't
worry
about it.

"God" or some sort of demiurge figure in one of Philip K. Dick's schizophrenia fuled shorts I forget the name of, where it's hideous presence pretty much everywhere, always watching and judging, everyone but the suddenly aware protagonist keeping sane because knowledge of Him is suppressed by chemicals put in the drinking water.

Was any of this shit supposed to be funny?

>>9309140
Nah, one of his shorts. Much more immediate and aggressive than Ubik, doubt it was even published until after his death. Need to get my hands on the whole collection, been years since I read trough it but it still left an impression of a very underrated short story author in comparison to his more famous novel output.
There's even a story there written in the late 50s or early 60s featuring a proto-grey goo scenario, only with gumballs.

Wrong.

The Wendigo

>>9310528
wendigo are real though. that's like saying "cannibals"

>>9310567
Skinwalkers are real too, I've killed one

>>9311014
wendigo psychosis, bro. look it up. there's a couple well verified accounts of people who believed they had gone wendigo and ate people, and while the authorities don't always agree they are wendigo, they agree they need to put down the cannibal. usually the wendigo agrees because it's the only way to end the human hunger.

>>9311029
I'm sure what anon says is not real is the wendigo beast symbol, not the manifest human behaviour
