Drive the wrong back road after dark in the right part of Michigan, or Ohio, or Connecticut, and — so the local teenagers will tell you — small figures may come out of the trees. They have swollen, bulbous heads far too large for their bodies, spindly limbs, and a feral hostility toward anyone who trespasses on their patch of woods. They are the Melon Heads, and they are said to be the last remnants of a hidden family: inbred, deformed, escaped from an asylum, or the abandoned subjects of a doctor’s experiments gone wrong. They live in the forest, and they do not want you there.
