-> ''Deep in the Hundred-Acre woods, a young boy named Christopher Robin came across some most unusual adolescent creatures. Crossbreeds, who some would describe as abominations. The creatures introduced themselves as Owl, Rabbit, Eeyore, Piglet and most importantly, Winnie-the-Pooh.''\\\
''With the naivety of youth, Christopher ignored the dangers and befriended them all. He brought them food, and with each passing day together, their bond strengthened and grew.''\\\
''The days turned to years, and with the years came maturity. Eventually, Christopher had to make the hard decision to leave his friends to attend college, to become a doctor, requiring them to fend for themselves once more.''\\\
''Then Winter arrived. The nights were deathly cold with the land barren and completely devoid of food. One fateful night, on the brink of starvation, Pooh decided that in order to survive, the group must consume one of their dearest friends, and thus, Eeyore was no more.''\\\
''The trauma of this act warped the minds of the group. They became feral and developed a hatred to all things human, and in particular, Christopher Robin for abandoning them.''\\\
''A pact was made. They renounced their humanity, and returned to their animalistic roots, swearing never to talk again.''

* OminousLatinChanting: Prominent in the score is repeated chants of "Sanguis et Mel" (Latin for "[[TitleDrop Blood and Honey]]").

%%* GoMadFromTheIsolation: Piglet and Pooh have become violent killers after Christopher Robin left the Hundred-Acre Wood as they were forced to act on their animal instincts to survive the wild, resulting in them both eating Eeyore and blaming Christopher Robin for what happened.

%%* OurSlashersAreDifferent: For starters, they're murderous versions of Winnie the Pooh and Piglet. This adaptation of the characters sees them turn feral and bloodthirsty after Christopher Robin leaves for college. What makes it worse is they don't look like the cute, lovable stuffed animals we know them as, instead looking like demented killers in animal masks.
