          In 1906 the small but booming town of Fairfax, TX,  felt it was no longer acceptable to have an insane asylum near by.  The asylum was soon closed.  During the course of moving the inmates, a terrible accident occurred.  The last wagon to leave the asylum crashed leaving only two inmates: Stanton Mayfair (a gaunt shaky man in his mid thirties with severe anxiety) and Maynard Gaimes (a disturbingly quiet man with a history of violent psychotic tendencies), alive to escape into the woods.

          Though the area was searched many times, the inmates were never found.  The only sign the townspeople had of their existence were the occasional disturbing discoveries of half-eaten rabbits found in the woods.  Several days later the body of one of the inmates, Stanton, was found hanging from a nearby train bridge, brutally murdered.  The other inmate, Maynard, was never found.  Yet the half-eaten rabbits continued to be discovered, thus giving birth to the legend of “The Bunny Man.”

          The story takes us to the present day in which a group of friends and amateur paranormal investigators discover the town of Fairfax.  They eagerly travel to investigate this supposedly haunted town only to come across the legend of “The Bunny Man”.  Upon investigating the legend a startling secret is uncovered.  A string of brutal murders spanning the course of a century have occurred at the strange and ominous bridge outside of town.  These murders are all connected to the Bunny Man legend and are as yet unsolved.

          The group discovers the legend of “The Bunny Man” is not merely an old myth, but rather a terrifying reality.  They stumble headlong into a real life horror.  This horror haunts them through the hushed whispers of the small town, down the decrepit bowels of the old asylum and finally to the fatal truth at the heart of the mystery...  The Bunny Man bridge...  From which there is no escape!
