For many people Easter is a joyous occasion, family gatherings, a long weekend and for kids it also means a visit from the Easter bunny. But what if I hat sweet little rabbit is more then he seems?
For most people Easter is celebrated around the world as a religious holiday commemorating the resurrection of Christ.
But for others especially children it's a time of excitement and anticipation as they await the arrival of the Easter bunny and a basket of goodies . Colorful eggs and chocolate delivered by a kind magical bunny.
what's not to like about that!
All fun and games, right?
However, for years now there have been sightings of a "Easter Bunny" that is a lot creepier then common depiction would suggest.
Many have claimed too see a large human or near human sized rabbit, sometimes with intimidating red eyes and sharp teeth not exactly the kind and cuddly bunny we often think of.

Now, many would argue that what is being seen is nothing more then a prankster in a costume or a young child's imagination going a bit overboard. However some of these sightings seem to exhibit supernatural qualities like the human sized bunny appearing out of nowhere or having ghost like abilities ranging from being semi transparent or walking through walls sometimes even disappear at a moments notice.
If these sightings where only a few that would be one thing, but there have been similar accounts around the world. Some believe this is a coincidence or possibly even a form of mass hallucinations. Other believe it to be a type of tulpa.
A tulpa is a creature created by thought alone either by a intense concentration by an individual or through mass beliefs by a large number of people. Basically if enough people believe in something it is essentially willed into existence ... Though they are hard to control and often dangerous as they will eventually take on a will of their own...
Others claimed this is nothing more then an urban legend, in any case it's still interesting to think the simple fact that people believe is enough to make it a reality.

In America, the original Easter Bunny tradition we celebrate today can be traced back to German immigrants who brought there Folklore and tradition with them, in pagan times the rabbit was a sign of spring and fertility along with the egg. During the christianization of Europe many pagan customs where incorporated to gain more followers. The original Easter Bunny was the Osterhase Easter Rabbit .
The Angelo Saxon Goddess of spring fertility was called Ostara or Eostre her symptoms were the egg and the hare representing fertility. The colored eggs and bunny are still used to this day in our Easter celebration.
And modern pagans still hold a festival for the Goddess Eostre during the spring equinox.
