Summary:
Samantha Heather Mackey is an outsider in her elite MFA program, repulsed by a clique of eerily saccharine rich girls who call each other “Bunny.” But when she’s unexpectedly invited into their world, curiosity (and loneliness) pull her in.
What follows is a surreal, unsettling descent into a world where creativity, identity, and reality begin to blur. As the Bunnies’ rituals grow increasingly bizarre and violent, Samantha finds herself both enchanted and horrified—questioning what’s real, what’s imagined, and what she’s becoming.
Bunny is a sharp, twisted exploration of belonging, female friendship, and the dark side of artistic creation—equal parts satire and psychological horror.
