The Hill That Ate People

Description

<p>I have a record of scary stories narrated by Vincent Price or maybe it was Boris Karloff...I don't know for sure, I have to dig it out and check, but anyway, one of the stories is an old Sioux legend that began like this..."There once a hill that ate people, the rabbit's grandmother told him never to go near it. So the rabbit went to the hill and called out, 'Gobble Hill, swallow me! Come, devour me!' But the hill knew the rabbit and took no notice."
<p>I thought that's got to be the best opening line to a monster story I've ever heard.
