Picture this: You're walking home late one night. It's dark, but amidst the flicker of a few street lamps, you catch a glimpse of a pale figure wearing a crooked top hat. Almost feline in form, it grins menacingly — and sends a chilling whisper into the breeze: "It is fun to have fun but you have to know how."
For most people, this is nothing more than an absurd, shudder-inducing thought. But for some young people on TikTok, the idea of seeing Dr. Seuss's Cat in the Hat mischievously wandering the streets has become a shared source of paranoia.
