Spider Bunny

More about the book

Carlton Mellick III, the godfather of bizarro fiction, pays homage to the unsettling children's commercials of the '70s and '80s. Petey is the only one who remembers the disturbing Fruit Fun cereal ads from the 1980s, featuring lumpy cartoon children and the eerie mascot, Berry Bunny. These commercials haunted his childhood, filling him with nightmares of being pulled into a cereal bowl by the grotesque characters. When Petey mentions Fruit Fun to his friends, they are baffled, having never seen the commercials or even heard of the cereal. Even online searches yield no results, leaving Petey questioning his sanity and the reality of his memories. However, the bizarre nostalgia resurfaces as Berry Bunny reappears on his television, promoting the cereal in her unsettling voice. Suddenly, Petey and his friends find themselves trapped in the surreal world of the commercial, surrounded by flesh-and-blood cartoon characters. This absurd horror tale from the cult author of Cuddly Holocaust, Cannibals of Candyland, and I Knocked Up Satan's Daughter pulls readers into a bizarre journey that is both captivating and terrifying.
