Poet Brian Bilston has shared a new poem on Mastodon, prompting readers to note it could double as a horror piece with Halloween approaching. Some respondents say the poem gives them strong echoes of Doki Doki Literature Club, the psychological horror game that disguises itself as something innocent, with one reader describing instant flashbacks to the game's darker moments.

Why now: Halloween is approaching and readers are reinterpreting a poem from a horror and gaming angle.
