Crumpets are, without a shadow of a doubt, one of the best things about living in Great Britain today.

And, right in time for Easter, supermarket Asda has launched a bunny-shaped version of the glorious griddle cake. It's a cute idea in theory. But, in execution, the crumpets look creepy AF and vaguely murderous.

One person took to Twitter to point out the crumpets' striking resemblance to Frank from Donnie Darko.

Come to think of it, the similarity is rather uncanny.

Of course, many people are still *extremely* excited about the bunny-shaped crumpets.

Creepiness aside, crumpets are mind-blowingly delicious, which is all that matters really.

Packs of four crumpets are available from Asda stores for £1 ($1.24).
