1
00:00:25,151 --> 00:00:27,278
Jimmy!
2
00:00:29,655 --> 00:00:31,282
Jimmy!
3
00:00:35,328 --> 00:00:37,580
You out here?
4
00:00:38,790 --> 00:00:40,374
Boys!
5
00:01:52,113 --> 00:01:53,740
Jimmy?
6
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:04,834
Jimmy?
7
00:02:19,057 --> 00:02:20,391
In our suburbs,
8
00:02:20,433 --> 00:02:24,187
evil lurks behind closed doors...
9
00:02:24,228 --> 00:02:29,358
True stories so terrifying because the horror is real.
10
00:02:29,400 --> 00:02:33,446
You will never look at your neighbors the same way again.
11
00:02:33,488 --> 00:02:35,323
I'm John Carpenter,
12
00:02:35,364 --> 00:02:37,909
and this is
"Suburban Screams."
13
00:02:47,126 --> 00:02:48,896
People'd say, "Do you know about the Bunny Man?"
14
00:02:48,920 --> 00:02:50,838
And I'd say, I know about the Bunny Man,
15
00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:52,799
but not because I read about the Bunny Man.
16
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:54,234
It was like he was right behind us,
17
00:02:54,258 --> 00:02:55,468
breathing down our necks.
18
00:03:05,645 --> 00:03:07,355
My name is Ed Kidwell.
19
00:03:07,397 --> 00:03:10,983
Moved to Fairfax, Virginia, in 1970,
20
00:03:11,025 --> 00:03:13,069
about age nine years old.
21
00:03:14,987 --> 00:03:16,072
My dad was military,
22
00:03:16,114 --> 00:03:17,907
and he was stationed at the Pentagon.
23
00:03:17,949 --> 00:03:21,494
That's where my dad bought a house, was in Fairfax.
24
00:03:23,287 --> 00:03:24,956
We lived in the Burke section.
25
00:03:26,541 --> 00:03:27,976
Our neighborhood was just being built,
26
00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,461
so there was still a lot of dirt roads,
27
00:03:30,503 --> 00:03:32,338
a lot of construction going on.
28
00:03:35,341 --> 00:03:37,927
On the maps that they gave you of the neighborhood,
29
00:03:37,969 --> 00:03:42,265
it was gonna be a good 20, 25 streets...
30
00:03:45,601 --> 00:03:46,811
But when we moved there,
31
00:03:46,853 --> 00:03:48,205
there was only maybe three streets,
32
00:03:48,229 --> 00:03:50,106
four streets completed.
33
00:03:56,529 --> 00:03:59,031
I was born in Fairfax Hospital,
34
00:03:59,073 --> 00:04:01,075
so I'm a legit native.
35
00:04:02,535 --> 00:04:04,746
Not a lot of people are from Fairfax.
36
00:04:04,787 --> 00:04:06,789
They moved there for a job,
37
00:04:06,831 --> 00:04:10,460
or their parents moved there for a job.
38
00:04:12,128 --> 00:04:16,174
Here is Fairfax, Virginia, a city in progress.
39
00:04:17,508 --> 00:04:19,135
Just a hop, skip, and a jump
40
00:04:19,177 --> 00:04:20,762
from our nation's capital,
41
00:04:20,803 --> 00:04:23,806
we're building the houses for tomorrow today...
42
00:04:25,808 --> 00:04:27,685
And turning this sleepy rural landscape
43
00:04:27,727 --> 00:04:29,479
into a vibrant community
44
00:04:29,520 --> 00:04:33,316
ready for your growing family to move in and call home.
45
00:04:34,984 --> 00:04:37,570
Fairfax is a suburb of Washington, D.C.
46
00:04:37,612 --> 00:04:40,156
So the more that the government grew,
47
00:04:40,198 --> 00:04:43,326
the more that the rural areas around there were expanding.
48
00:04:48,873 --> 00:04:51,501
But it was absolutely a good place to grow up,
49
00:04:51,542 --> 00:04:53,002
a safe place to grow up.
50
00:04:55,713 --> 00:04:57,024
You didn't think there was crime.
51
00:04:57,048 --> 00:04:59,592
We'd stay out till the sun went down.
52
00:05:01,010 --> 00:05:02,929
You'd play tag at night,
53
00:05:02,970 --> 00:05:04,055
hide and seek.
54
00:05:04,097 --> 00:05:05,348
There was a lot to do.
55
00:05:05,390 --> 00:05:07,016
There was...
56
00:05:07,058 --> 00:05:08,434
it just wasn't that feeling of,
57
00:05:08,476 --> 00:05:09,769
you're in danger all the time,
58
00:05:09,811 --> 00:05:12,021
that you've gotta watch for strangers.
59
00:05:14,107 --> 00:05:15,316
At the time, I didn't...
60
00:05:15,358 --> 00:05:17,068
I didn't think about some guy
61
00:05:17,110 --> 00:05:19,237
running around dressed like a bunny.
62
00:05:27,245 --> 00:05:28,579
One of our neighbors
63
00:05:28,621 --> 00:05:31,499
invited us to a Boy Scout campout.
64
00:05:31,541 --> 00:05:32,917
They have a big bonfire,
65
00:05:32,959 --> 00:05:35,670
and everyone sits around and tells stories.
66
00:05:35,712 --> 00:05:36,963
And one kid starts with,
67
00:05:37,004 --> 00:05:39,257
"Have you heard the legend of the Bunny Man?"
68
00:05:39,298 --> 00:05:41,884
And one of the other leaders interrupted him and said,
69
00:05:41,926 --> 00:05:43,636
"They're too young.
70
00:05:43,678 --> 00:05:45,221
"We don't want and don't need this.
71
00:05:45,263 --> 00:05:47,056
This story is not... just stop."
72
00:05:47,098 --> 00:05:48,349
You know?
73
00:05:48,391 --> 00:05:50,077
That made all us little kids go,
74
00:05:50,101 --> 00:05:51,310
"What's that?
75
00:05:51,352 --> 00:05:53,229
What's the Bunny Man story?"
76
00:05:54,564 --> 00:05:56,566
I don't remember the first time
77
00:05:56,607 --> 00:05:57,835
I heard the story of the Bunny Man.
78
00:05:57,859 --> 00:06:00,153
I just remember it always being around.
79
00:06:00,194 --> 00:06:01,755
I think it was probably a little bit more
80
00:06:01,779 --> 00:06:04,490
about the urban legend at that point,
81
00:06:04,532 --> 00:06:07,994
the idea of a guy in a bunny suit with an axe
82
00:06:08,035 --> 00:06:10,747
terrorizing, this area
83
00:06:10,788 --> 00:06:12,099
that's being developed,
84
00:06:12,123 --> 00:06:13,916
figuring they're trying to scare us and...
85
00:06:13,958 --> 00:06:15,626
Or people trying to scare me.
86
00:06:19,380 --> 00:06:23,968
Most urban legends have a kernel of truth in them.
87
00:06:24,010 --> 00:06:26,929
And the kernel of truth in this one, I think,
88
00:06:26,971 --> 00:06:30,099
really terrified people at some visceral level.
89
00:06:37,106 --> 00:06:39,108
I have always been a history buff,
90
00:06:39,150 --> 00:06:41,235
and I am a trained genealogist.
91
00:06:41,277 --> 00:06:45,782
So in about 2011, I joined the Burke Historical Society,
92
00:06:45,823 --> 00:06:47,909
which is a small group of people
93
00:06:47,950 --> 00:06:51,621
who are interested in preserving and sharing
94
00:06:51,662 --> 00:06:54,707
the fascinating history of Burke, Virginia.
95
00:06:54,749 --> 00:06:58,127
I decided to write a book called "Wicked Fairfax County"
96
00:06:58,169 --> 00:07:00,838
and knew there had to be a chapter on the Bunny Man.
97
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,341
So I started researching and found that
98
00:07:03,383 --> 00:07:07,512
there were many different legends about the Bunny Man.
99
00:07:07,553 --> 00:07:10,139
But the commonality in all of them is
100
00:07:10,181 --> 00:07:13,559
there was a farmer that lived in Fairfax County, Virginia,
101
00:07:13,601 --> 00:07:15,186
100 years ago.
102
00:07:27,782 --> 00:07:30,284
The farmer kind of kept to himself.
103
00:07:30,326 --> 00:07:33,079
He wasn't married, had no family.
104
00:07:33,121 --> 00:07:34,997
And one night, the local pastor thought
105
00:07:35,039 --> 00:07:37,125
he would go pay him a visit.
106
00:08:33,723 --> 00:08:35,808
As the pastor approached the house,
107
00:08:35,850 --> 00:08:38,770
he heard strange babbling in a language
108
00:08:38,811 --> 00:08:40,855
that he did not understand.
109
00:09:29,445 --> 00:09:31,781
Mother of God.
110
00:10:10,027 --> 00:10:13,281
So the pastor hightailed it out of there,
111
00:10:13,322 --> 00:10:16,325
went and got the police, and found out that
112
00:10:16,367 --> 00:10:18,786
the cow had been reported as stolen.
113
00:10:18,828 --> 00:10:20,121
So they arrested the farmer.
114
00:10:20,163 --> 00:10:22,331
He said he had stolen the cow
115
00:10:22,373 --> 00:10:25,293
because a demon had told him to do it.
116
00:10:28,463 --> 00:10:30,465
So the farmer was sentenced to time
117
00:10:30,506 --> 00:10:32,759
and vowed that he was gonna get revenge on the town.
118
00:10:34,302 --> 00:10:36,345
But then supposedly, it was a bus
119
00:10:36,387 --> 00:10:38,556
that wrecked with prisoners on it,
120
00:10:38,598 --> 00:10:42,060
he escaped, and they never caught him.
121
00:10:42,101 --> 00:10:44,353
And so then he was running around through Burke.
122
00:10:44,395 --> 00:10:47,774
He kept himself alive on eating rabbits.
123
00:10:49,525 --> 00:10:51,486
And then he would take the carcasses
124
00:10:51,527 --> 00:10:53,654
and hang it on the bridge like a warning
125
00:10:53,696 --> 00:10:56,449
to tell people to stay away.
126
00:10:56,491 --> 00:10:59,744
And then children reported seeing him
127
00:10:59,786 --> 00:11:01,954
near the bridge, dressed in either
128
00:11:01,996 --> 00:11:05,333
rabbit skins or a bunny costume,
129
00:11:05,374 --> 00:11:09,212
and they started calling this escapee the Bunny Man.
130
00:11:09,253 --> 00:11:11,714
Eventually, they chased him onto the train tracks,
131
00:11:11,756 --> 00:11:15,218
where he was hit by a train and killed.
132
00:11:15,259 --> 00:11:18,388
And the next morning, three children were missing.
133
00:11:18,429 --> 00:11:19,972
So the police went out to the bridge,
134
00:11:20,014 --> 00:11:22,100
and they found the three children hanging
135
00:11:22,141 --> 00:11:26,062
off the bridge by their necks.
136
00:11:26,104 --> 00:11:28,356
And they had been gutted like rabbits.
137
00:11:31,609 --> 00:11:33,361
So now it is said that
138
00:11:33,403 --> 00:11:35,947
if you go to that bridge at midnight on Halloween,
139
00:11:35,988 --> 00:11:38,574
the Bunny Man's ghost will come and murder you.
140
00:11:38,616 --> 00:11:41,077
And the next morning, people will find you
141
00:11:41,119 --> 00:11:43,830
hung off the bridge just like those three children were
142
00:11:43,871 --> 00:11:46,249
100 years ago.
143
00:11:47,375 --> 00:11:48,751
But that was a big deal,
144
00:11:48,793 --> 00:11:51,170
the Bunny Man story.
145
00:11:51,212 --> 00:11:53,631
And other people said, "No, that's not the truth."
146
00:11:53,673 --> 00:11:55,174
It was real.
147
00:11:55,216 --> 00:11:57,111
The whole neighborhood talked about the Bunny Man.
148
00:11:57,135 --> 00:11:59,095
They'd... it wasn't "You're a fool.
149
00:11:59,137 --> 00:12:00,656
You're listening to the Bunny Man story."
150
00:12:00,680 --> 00:12:01,931
It'd be weird.
151
00:12:01,973 --> 00:12:03,367
You'd go three or four blocks over,
152
00:12:03,391 --> 00:12:05,601
those kids had the same stories.
153
00:12:05,643 --> 00:12:06,894
It was not a legend to us.
154
00:12:06,936 --> 00:12:08,521
It was the truth.
155
00:12:14,193 --> 00:12:15,778
But in elementary school,
156
00:12:15,820 --> 00:12:18,072
we'd hear the stories of the escaped person
157
00:12:18,114 --> 00:12:19,741
in the woods.
158
00:12:21,284 --> 00:12:23,578
Everybody's got their own version of that.
159
00:12:26,456 --> 00:12:29,792
And then in the 1970s, it got very real.
160
00:12:46,267 --> 00:12:48,436
Yeah.
161
00:12:48,478 --> 00:12:50,146
That's just what I was thinking.
162
00:13:45,034 --> 00:13:45,993
What?
163
00:13:46,035 --> 00:13:47,203
Shh.
164
00:13:49,414 --> 00:13:50,915
Listen.
165
00:14:44,969 --> 00:14:47,346
No!
166
00:14:47,388 --> 00:14:48,765
No!
167
00:14:48,806 --> 00:14:49,974
No!
168
00:15:34,852 --> 00:15:36,229
No.
169
00:15:36,270 --> 00:15:38,648
No!
170
00:16:11,222 --> 00:16:12,348
Let's go!
171
00:16:15,101 --> 00:16:16,310
Let's go!
172
00:16:48,551 --> 00:16:49,719
Come on.
173
00:16:51,846 --> 00:16:55,058
Come on, Robert.
174
00:16:55,099 --> 00:16:56,726
Start the car!
175
00:17:22,043 --> 00:17:24,712
Please.
176
00:17:28,049 --> 00:17:29,050
Just go.
177
00:17:29,092 --> 00:17:30,301
Just go.
178
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:43,064
The young couple took off.
179
00:17:43,106 --> 00:17:44,500
Fortunately, they were not injured.
180
00:17:44,524 --> 00:17:47,110
They called the police,
181
00:17:47,151 --> 00:17:48,945
so a police report was made.
182
00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,742
Honestly, it's hard to say if I believed in the Bunny Man
183
00:17:54,784 --> 00:17:56,327
or not as a kid.
184
00:17:56,369 --> 00:17:59,747
But as I learned more when I got older,
185
00:17:59,789 --> 00:18:02,208
I believe there really was a Bunny Man.
186
00:18:05,837 --> 00:18:10,383
Because there's actual evidence now.
187
00:18:10,425 --> 00:18:11,652
So it doesn't get to that level
188
00:18:11,676 --> 00:18:13,261
without there being truth, right?
189
00:18:13,302 --> 00:18:15,596
There is truth to it.
190
00:18:15,638 --> 00:18:18,099
And I was in the rural area that this all happened in.
191
00:18:18,141 --> 00:18:19,600
I was within miles of it,
192
00:18:19,642 --> 00:18:21,853
so definitely thought about it more.
193
00:18:23,938 --> 00:18:27,358
And then a couple weeks after that,
194
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:29,527
a security guard saw something
195
00:18:29,569 --> 00:18:32,447
within a mile of where the first story took place.
196
00:18:32,488 --> 00:18:35,658
Okay, it's D-R...
197
00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:36,993
Truckster.
198
00:18:37,034 --> 00:18:39,078
Truckster.
199
00:18:39,120 --> 00:18:40,913
No, that's not a word.
200
00:18:40,955 --> 00:18:44,709
Trackster?
201
00:18:44,751 --> 00:18:45,752
Trackster?
202
00:18:48,963 --> 00:18:50,715
81, clear.
203
00:18:50,757 --> 00:18:52,216
80-14, clear.
204
00:18:54,385 --> 00:18:55,678
It's trickster!
205
00:18:55,720 --> 00:18:57,096
Man.
206
00:18:57,138 --> 00:18:58,138
That's good.
207
00:19:08,858 --> 00:19:10,193
What the hell?
208
00:19:29,420 --> 00:19:31,756
What the hell are you doing?
209
00:21:23,993 --> 00:21:26,204
Hold it!
210
00:21:26,245 --> 00:21:28,414
Hold it right there!
211
00:21:40,635 --> 00:21:42,762
The Bunny Man, he got away.
212
00:21:42,804 --> 00:21:45,181
And both the original incident
213
00:21:45,223 --> 00:21:47,183
on Guinea Road in October 1970
214
00:21:47,225 --> 00:21:49,227
with the couple in the car
215
00:21:49,268 --> 00:21:51,354
and the incident at Kings Park West
216
00:21:51,396 --> 00:21:52,688
with the security guard
217
00:21:52,730 --> 00:21:54,607
were reported in "The Washington Post."
218
00:22:10,206 --> 00:22:12,667
So my dad, he's sitting at the dining room table,
219
00:22:12,708 --> 00:22:14,711
reading "The Post," like he normally does.
220
00:22:14,752 --> 00:22:17,797
And here's a story in there about the Bunny Man,
221
00:22:17,839 --> 00:22:19,465
probably 10 houses away from our house,
222
00:22:19,507 --> 00:22:20,591
where this happened.
223
00:22:24,887 --> 00:22:26,848
Now it's much more serious
224
00:22:26,889 --> 00:22:28,141
because there's police reports.
225
00:22:28,182 --> 00:22:29,559
There's eyewitnesses.
226
00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,936
And your parents became fearful of it.
227
00:22:31,978 --> 00:22:33,247
Now being a parent myself,
228
00:22:33,271 --> 00:22:34,522
I can understand that.
229
00:22:35,898 --> 00:22:38,443
I do remember in the '70s,
230
00:22:38,484 --> 00:22:41,696
there was a lot of news about kids that would go missing,
231
00:22:41,738 --> 00:22:44,949
these kidnapping stories that were going on.
232
00:22:44,991 --> 00:22:47,535
And then you hear a local story about a guy
233
00:22:47,577 --> 00:22:49,078
in a bunny suit with an axe.
234
00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:51,706
And I think that just sent this mentality of,
235
00:22:51,748 --> 00:22:53,249
you could be taken.
236
00:22:58,504 --> 00:22:59,756
So my dad, when we were going
237
00:22:59,797 --> 00:23:01,090
to the store that Saturday,
238
00:23:01,132 --> 00:23:02,675
when we drive by, he slows down.
239
00:23:02,717 --> 00:23:04,343
He goes, "That's the house right there
240
00:23:04,385 --> 00:23:06,220
that the Bunny Man hacked on."
241
00:23:08,097 --> 00:23:09,974
And so all us kids are staring out the window.
242
00:23:10,016 --> 00:23:11,267
We see hack marks.
243
00:23:11,309 --> 00:23:12,560
Obviously, someone had taken
244
00:23:12,602 --> 00:23:14,395
tons of target practice out there.
245
00:23:16,105 --> 00:23:17,440
This is true.
246
00:23:17,482 --> 00:23:19,358
This happened right by my house.
247
00:23:20,943 --> 00:23:23,404
And so when you went to bed, you thought about that.
248
00:23:23,446 --> 00:23:26,157
You thought about the Bunny Man and where's he gonna attack?
249
00:23:26,199 --> 00:23:29,911
And it wasn't just a story
250
00:23:29,952 --> 00:23:31,579
that they were trying to keep from us.
251
00:23:31,621 --> 00:23:33,748
You had to be careful.
252
00:23:33,790 --> 00:23:35,583
He was where we were.
253
00:23:49,847 --> 00:23:51,241
You start thinking, the Bunny Man.
254
00:23:51,265 --> 00:23:52,934
The Bunny Man's coming after you.
255
00:23:54,519 --> 00:23:56,330
He could have been anywhere in the county.
256
00:23:56,354 --> 00:23:57,647
We gotta watch out for this guy.
257
00:23:57,688 --> 00:23:59,732
Keep your eyes open for this guy.
258
00:24:01,401 --> 00:24:02,795
Then all the sudden, my mom was worried
259
00:24:02,819 --> 00:24:04,404
about what we were doing.
260
00:24:04,445 --> 00:24:07,115
And the streetlights come on, you better be home.
261
00:24:07,156 --> 00:24:08,699
It was creepy.
262
00:24:10,618 --> 00:24:12,012
That's just...
263
00:24:12,036 --> 00:24:13,204
It heightened your fear
264
00:24:13,246 --> 00:24:14,789
of what's in the dark.
265
00:24:14,831 --> 00:24:16,416
What's going on?
266
00:24:18,543 --> 00:24:19,877
The Bunny Man was real.
267
00:24:19,919 --> 00:24:21,295
He was running around.
268
00:24:21,337 --> 00:24:23,337
He was one of those people the police never catch.
269
00:24:25,258 --> 00:24:26,467
You don't want to be cornered.
270
00:24:26,509 --> 00:24:27,949
You don't want to become his victim.
271
00:24:30,430 --> 00:24:33,349
Is it possible the Bunny Man's watching us?
272
00:24:36,686 --> 00:24:40,273
But then you'd hear stories pop up every once in a while
273
00:24:40,314 --> 00:24:42,483
of a Bunny Man incident.
274
00:24:42,525 --> 00:24:44,485
The Bunny Man was here.
275
00:24:44,527 --> 00:24:47,071
Supposedly, they saw the Bunny Man here.
276
00:24:47,113 --> 00:24:49,991
I know at least three people who had eyewitness accounts
277
00:24:50,032 --> 00:24:52,952
of seeing him.
278
00:24:52,994 --> 00:24:54,579
I didn't, at first, always...
279
00:24:54,620 --> 00:24:56,682
I didn't always believe these stories.
280
00:24:56,706 --> 00:24:59,083
But I heard enough of them that I do believe it.
281
00:24:59,125 --> 00:25:01,878
I had a paper boy for "The Washington Post."
282
00:25:01,919 --> 00:25:03,004
He was 16.
283
00:25:03,046 --> 00:25:05,465
And in 1972,
284
00:25:05,506 --> 00:25:08,509
he said that he was delivering papers,
285
00:25:08,551 --> 00:25:10,678
and he claims to have seen a guy
286
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:12,239
in a bunny suit skipping down the street,
287
00:25:12,263 --> 00:25:13,723
dragging an axe behind him.
288
00:25:13,765 --> 00:25:15,534
He said he had nightmares about it for years.
289
00:25:15,558 --> 00:25:16,851
It was like a... it was actually
290
00:25:16,893 --> 00:25:20,772
a fairly traumatic event for him as a kid.
291
00:25:20,813 --> 00:25:21,981
I believed him.
292
00:25:22,023 --> 00:25:23,542
There was no question, from my perspective,
293
00:25:23,566 --> 00:25:26,069
he was telling the truth.
294
00:25:28,529 --> 00:25:30,907
And then in junior high,
295
00:25:30,948 --> 00:25:34,410
I started hearing about the bridge stories.
296
00:25:34,452 --> 00:25:36,537
It is an active railroad bridge,
297
00:25:36,579 --> 00:25:38,206
although seriously looking at it,
298
00:25:38,247 --> 00:25:39,540
you would not believe that.
299
00:25:39,582 --> 00:25:41,018
If you were gonna have a haunted bridge,
300
00:25:41,042 --> 00:25:43,753
it would be that bridge.
301
00:25:43,795 --> 00:25:47,423
Ever since the Bunny Man legend became viral, if you will,
302
00:25:47,465 --> 00:25:51,552
kids have flocked to Bunny Man bridge on Halloween.
303
00:25:53,096 --> 00:25:54,972
Teenagers being teenagers,
304
00:25:55,014 --> 00:25:57,642
kids from as far away as Pennsylvania
305
00:25:57,683 --> 00:26:00,895
come down to the bridge on Halloween.
306
00:26:00,937 --> 00:26:02,539
Because, that's when the Bunny Man
307
00:26:02,563 --> 00:26:03,898
is supposed to appear.
308
00:26:05,775 --> 00:26:08,152
I was surprised how many people were bringing
309
00:26:08,194 --> 00:26:10,029
new stories about that bridge.
310
00:26:10,071 --> 00:26:11,840
And the fact that there are still stories out there
311
00:26:11,864 --> 00:26:14,200
that haven't been documented, it tells me
312
00:26:14,242 --> 00:26:17,370
that there's a lot more to it that we don't know.
313
00:26:32,260 --> 00:26:34,095
Holy shit.
314
00:26:34,137 --> 00:26:36,139
Look at Nick Larson.
315
00:26:36,180 --> 00:26:39,100
Wasn't he the Bunny Man for Halloween last year too?
316
00:26:40,435 --> 00:26:41,561
Who even invited him?
317
00:26:41,602 --> 00:26:43,813
He's such a freak.
318
00:26:45,106 --> 00:26:46,399
Hey, Nick.
319
00:26:46,441 --> 00:26:48,693
Show us your moves!
320
00:27:00,621 --> 00:27:02,206
Hey. Nice costume.
321
00:27:07,128 --> 00:27:09,380
What the fuck?
322
00:27:09,422 --> 00:27:10,882
Nick Larson?
323
00:27:10,923 --> 00:27:13,134
Hi, Stephanie.
324
00:27:24,270 --> 00:27:26,647
Yeah!
325
00:27:57,887 --> 00:27:59,138
Run!
326
00:28:09,524 --> 00:28:10,983
- We need to go!
- Wait!
327
00:28:11,025 --> 00:28:12,402
Help!
328
00:28:12,443 --> 00:28:13,736
Help!
329
00:28:13,778 --> 00:28:14,987
Help me!
330
00:28:18,241 --> 00:28:20,034
Help!
331
00:28:22,036 --> 00:28:23,996
Hurry!
332
00:28:24,038 --> 00:28:25,748
Here!
333
00:28:25,790 --> 00:28:26,833
Help!
334
00:28:26,874 --> 00:28:28,793
Help!
335
00:28:29,961 --> 00:28:31,170
Hurry!
336
00:28:31,212 --> 00:28:33,005
Help!
- Help!
337
00:28:33,047 --> 00:28:34,132
Please!
338
00:28:34,173 --> 00:28:35,842
Somebody help us, please!
339
00:28:35,883 --> 00:28:36,883
Let's go!
340
00:28:43,808 --> 00:28:45,059
Come on!
341
00:28:45,101 --> 00:28:46,060
I need your help!
342
00:28:46,102 --> 00:28:47,437
Help!
343
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:55,754
That was probably the most ominous
344
00:28:55,778 --> 00:28:58,030
of any of the stories I heard.
345
00:28:58,072 --> 00:28:59,240
This is, something
346
00:28:59,282 --> 00:29:00,592
that you could tell still stuck with them.
347
00:29:00,616 --> 00:29:02,618
Somebody comes out of the woods
348
00:29:02,660 --> 00:29:04,680
and tries to grab a friend of yours in a bunny suit,
349
00:29:04,704 --> 00:29:07,248
and you grew up with the urban legend of the Bunny Man,
350
00:29:07,290 --> 00:29:09,500
you're gonna remember.
351
00:29:09,542 --> 00:29:12,962
After that, it seems the Bunny Man was everywhere.
352
00:29:13,004 --> 00:29:16,632
In one night, police fielded 50 calls
353
00:29:16,674 --> 00:29:19,677
about a man in a rabbit suit with a hatchet.
354
00:29:19,719 --> 00:29:22,430
Was it possible it was the same Bunny Man
355
00:29:22,472 --> 00:29:24,599
from the 100 years ago incident?
356
00:29:24,640 --> 00:29:26,142
I don't know the answer to that.
357
00:29:26,184 --> 00:29:27,769
I honestly don't.
358
00:29:27,810 --> 00:29:30,646
But now you have some sort of hysteria going on.
359
00:29:34,734 --> 00:29:35,902
Kids would talk about it
360
00:29:35,943 --> 00:29:38,196
in the lunchroom and on the playground.
361
00:29:38,237 --> 00:29:40,448
Everything seemed like there was somewhere
362
00:29:40,490 --> 00:29:43,076
that the Bunny Man could be hiding.
363
00:29:43,117 --> 00:29:45,787
And it seemed like every noise you heard
364
00:29:45,828 --> 00:29:47,830
was the Bunny Man attacking people.
365
00:29:47,872 --> 00:29:51,209
You'd hear a rooster or even a fox scream.
366
00:29:51,250 --> 00:29:53,103
I don't have you ever heard a fox scream at night.
367
00:29:53,127 --> 00:29:56,089
It sounds almost like a person screaming, the fox.
368
00:29:56,130 --> 00:29:57,757
I would just...
369
00:29:57,799 --> 00:30:00,760
All the kids would be so scared.
370
00:30:00,802 --> 00:30:02,303
One time, we were all playing,
371
00:30:02,345 --> 00:30:03,679
doing our...
372
00:30:03,721 --> 00:30:05,240
Whatever we do around the neighborhood.
373
00:30:05,264 --> 00:30:07,600
And one of the kids came running around,
374
00:30:07,642 --> 00:30:09,060
tearing around the corner.
375
00:30:09,102 --> 00:30:10,812
And, he had fear in his eyes.
376
00:30:10,853 --> 00:30:12,897
And he's yelling, "It's the Bunny Man!
377
00:30:12,939 --> 00:30:14,565
He's coming! He's coming! He's coming!"
378
00:30:16,150 --> 00:30:17,669
our parents, they asked questions.
379
00:30:17,693 --> 00:30:18,736
"Did you see him?"
380
00:30:18,778 --> 00:30:20,113
And if you didn't see him,
381
00:30:20,154 --> 00:30:21,465
they would just say, "you're safe.
382
00:30:21,489 --> 00:30:23,157
You're home."
383
00:30:23,199 --> 00:30:24,951
But then you were curious.
384
00:30:24,992 --> 00:30:27,954
And so we were always out looking to see
385
00:30:27,995 --> 00:30:29,622
if we could find the Bunny Man.
386
00:30:33,126 --> 00:30:35,628
So I remember when we went camping
387
00:30:35,670 --> 00:30:37,296
in that area by ourselves.
388
00:30:38,548 --> 00:30:39,674
That was brave of us
389
00:30:39,716 --> 00:30:41,342
to go out there without adults.
390
00:30:43,261 --> 00:30:45,430
A couple pals that I hung out a lot with...
391
00:30:45,471 --> 00:30:48,307
It was Mike that lived down the street from me,
392
00:30:48,349 --> 00:30:50,852
and then a guy across the street named Richard.
393
00:30:50,893 --> 00:30:52,311
He was the one that would...
394
00:30:52,353 --> 00:30:55,481
Would get you to do things.
395
00:30:55,523 --> 00:30:58,985
Richard came up with the crazy idea to go over to this house
396
00:30:59,026 --> 00:31:01,487
where the Bunny Man supposedly lived.
397
00:31:03,656 --> 00:31:04,657
Come on, Mike!
398
00:31:04,699 --> 00:31:06,325
Don't pussy out!
399
00:31:06,367 --> 00:31:07,744
We've come this far.
400
00:31:07,785 --> 00:31:09,996
- We're doing it!
- Fine.
401
00:31:13,458 --> 00:31:14,518
Get that thing ready, Eddie.
402
00:31:14,542 --> 00:31:16,002
Don't touch it!
403
00:31:16,044 --> 00:31:18,546
I said the only one who touches it is me.
404
00:31:18,588 --> 00:31:20,882
If my dad knew I took it, he'd kill me!
405
00:31:20,923 --> 00:31:21,883
Shh!
406
00:31:21,924 --> 00:31:23,176
What if he's in there?
407
00:31:23,217 --> 00:31:25,887
That's the point, dickhead!
408
00:31:25,928 --> 00:31:28,598
I'm gonna distract him, and you're gonna snap a photo.
409
00:31:28,639 --> 00:31:30,141
And we're out!
410
00:31:30,183 --> 00:31:32,351
I'm not so sure about this, Rich.
411
00:31:32,393 --> 00:31:34,312
What if he tries to, I don't know,
412
00:31:34,353 --> 00:31:36,773
hack us for going on his property.
413
00:31:36,814 --> 00:31:39,025
Ladies, stop!
414
00:31:39,067 --> 00:31:41,694
It's just a weirdo in a costume.
415
00:31:41,736 --> 00:31:43,362
If he tries to do anything,
416
00:31:43,404 --> 00:31:46,282
I'll kick him right in his little bunny balls.
417
00:31:48,034 --> 00:31:50,578
One snapshot is all we need.
418
00:31:50,620 --> 00:31:53,498
Now man the fuck up and come on!
419
00:32:10,264 --> 00:32:11,682
Go up to the window.
420
00:32:11,724 --> 00:32:13,101
Yeah.
421
00:32:22,777 --> 00:32:25,405
There's no one in there.
422
00:32:25,446 --> 00:32:26,948
We're going in!
423
00:33:59,665 --> 00:34:00,875
Snap some photos!
424
00:34:00,917 --> 00:34:02,627
Ed, come on!
425
00:34:24,190 --> 00:34:25,691
Turn it off!
426
00:34:34,826 --> 00:34:37,120
It was probably just a deer or something.
427
00:34:42,500 --> 00:34:44,210
Don't move.
428
00:34:51,092 --> 00:34:52,593
Shh!
429
00:34:58,224 --> 00:34:59,767
Relax! It's just...
430
00:35:38,264 --> 00:35:40,349
I think about how scared we were.
431
00:35:40,391 --> 00:35:41,350
We just couldn't believe it.
432
00:35:41,392 --> 00:35:43,227
It was the Bunny Man.
433
00:35:43,269 --> 00:35:45,688
And all of us turned around
434
00:35:45,730 --> 00:35:47,899
it was like someone lit a fire.
435
00:35:47,940 --> 00:35:49,942
We just started running.
436
00:35:56,824 --> 00:35:59,494
But he was never caught.
437
00:35:59,535 --> 00:36:01,871
And so when I see an axe, it brings me back
438
00:36:01,913 --> 00:36:03,456
to the Bunny Man.
439
00:36:03,498 --> 00:36:04,499
This is his weapon.
440
00:36:04,540 --> 00:36:06,000
This is what he had.
441
00:36:06,042 --> 00:36:07,752
That really gets me.
442
00:36:07,794 --> 00:36:10,797
That's where it hits home.
443
00:36:19,889 --> 00:36:21,609
Most people don't expect to find out that
444
00:36:21,641 --> 00:36:23,476
the Bunny Man was actually real,
445
00:36:23,518 --> 00:36:25,228
that there actually was a young man
446
00:36:25,269 --> 00:36:26,521
in a rabbit suit with a hatchet
447
00:36:26,562 --> 00:36:28,940
running around threatening people.
448
00:36:28,981 --> 00:36:30,066
But he was.
449
00:36:30,108 --> 00:36:33,069
There actually was a Bunny Man.
450
00:36:38,741 --> 00:36:41,077
My theory is that the Bunny Man
451
00:36:41,119 --> 00:36:42,912
could not deal with the fact
452
00:36:42,954 --> 00:36:46,040
that the rural area that he was living in
453
00:36:46,082 --> 00:36:48,042
was becoming more suburban.
454
00:36:48,084 --> 00:36:50,044
He was very upset by all of this.
455
00:36:50,086 --> 00:36:51,462
He could see it coming.
456
00:36:51,504 --> 00:36:53,840
He could see the westward march of suburbia
457
00:36:53,881 --> 00:36:57,927
into that formerly rural area of Fairfax County.
458
00:36:57,969 --> 00:37:00,888
He just grew a lot spookier and a lot more violent,
459
00:37:00,930 --> 00:37:03,224
and he just lashed out.
460
00:37:04,726 --> 00:37:06,644
In Fairfax, everywhere there's
461
00:37:06,686 --> 00:37:08,438
something green, they're putting a house.
462
00:37:08,479 --> 00:37:11,107
It's just progress.
463
00:37:11,149 --> 00:37:13,067
So maybe he's trying to slow progress.
464
00:37:13,109 --> 00:37:14,986
Maybe that's his attempt, you know.
465
00:37:18,072 --> 00:37:20,032
I've always kind of had a theory that...
466
00:37:20,074 --> 00:37:21,868
That whoever owned those farms
467
00:37:21,909 --> 00:37:23,453
that had sold to those developers,
468
00:37:23,494 --> 00:37:25,955
it's probably a son or something
469
00:37:25,997 --> 00:37:28,458
of one of those people.
470
00:37:31,044 --> 00:37:34,505
But why he chose to wear a bunny suit.
471
00:37:34,547 --> 00:37:37,717
We'll never know the answer to that.
472
00:37:37,759 --> 00:37:39,177
There's so many theories.
473
00:37:39,218 --> 00:37:40,845
I have my own.
474
00:37:40,887 --> 00:37:44,140
There were a lot of rabbits in that area.
475
00:37:44,182 --> 00:37:47,226
Maybe it was just a statement of, hey,
476
00:37:47,268 --> 00:37:48,662
you're tearing up the home that these...
477
00:37:48,686 --> 00:37:51,856
That this wildlife lives in.
478
00:38:01,741 --> 00:38:05,411
In 2018, a man's body was found near the bridge.
479
00:38:06,829 --> 00:38:09,040
So it is possible that the Bunny Man
480
00:38:09,082 --> 00:38:12,210
is still alive today and watching all of this.
481
00:38:14,462 --> 00:38:16,339
We still hear the stories.
482
00:38:18,466 --> 00:38:21,844
So, it's very plausible he's still alive.
483
00:38:23,346 --> 00:38:25,932
So you gotta be concerned about
484
00:38:25,973 --> 00:38:27,975
who's creeping up on you,
485
00:38:28,017 --> 00:38:30,895
because the Bunny Man's running around there.
486
00:38:42,281 --> 00:38:44,075
He's still running around.
487
00:38:45,952 --> 00:38:47,995
You gotta be scared of that axe.
488
00:39:31,855 --> 00:39:33,855
