The Wicker Horse


The Morris dancers I saw had a wicker horse with them which provided a delightfully sinister counter-point to the dancing. It sort of jiggled about scaring the children who were watching.

I think anything is more creepy if you make it out of wicker. Imagine an evil clown, then imagine an evil clown made out of wicker. I think even a kitten made out of wicker would be frightening.
