Quotes

  • "The Forest of Teeth is a fearsome spirit,

With a song so heartbreaking one shudders to hear it.
No one knows how this thing was created,
Or why its cursed hunger can never be sated.
In moonlit forests of mist it prowls,
While night-birds shriek and the lone wolf howls.
So do not tarry, and be ever wary,
And whisper a prayer to sweet Mother Mary
That the Forest of Teeth tonight will not find you --
Alas, too late! It is there, right behind you!" - Zoltan Vancura

  • "Oh FUCK that thing! If I never see that monster again, it will be too soon! It's not here is it?!" - Fiadh
  • "We're old friends. I pity those who mistake it's rage for madness." -Bob
  • "Fascinating, breathtaking... and strangely enchanting in their own way." - Melissa Anaktoria
