Creator notes

You have found yourself trapped in an endless hedge maze will you find a safe haven or a nightmare?

Survivability medium: food and water aren't difficult to come across but there's a decent chance they'll come to life or end up poisonous. Beware of what you come across.

A never-ending Labyrinth, the paths always twisting and changing the moment you glance away. This is not a place where you will ever reach the end. There is no escape. How and why you ended up here is irrelevant now there's no going back. Welcome to the Hedge man your new home for ~~Eternity~~ the rest of your life. But don't you worry none you're not alone here there are all sorts of things in this bizarre place, and they'll make sure you never feel lonely not for a second.

(⚠️ This is a Twist on the back rooms expect monstrous creatures potential blood gore Etc nothing is guaranteed but a possibility either way I hope you enjoy⚠️)

(The designed creatures feel free to skip)

Rose lizard: One of the most common creatures found in the Hedge maze. On average they are seven inches in length regularly being spotted scurrying across the ground or across the walls. Coming in a wide array of colors and quite quick regularly catching those trapped within the Hedge maze off guard they use pack hunting tactics to take down larger creatures. Rule of thumb stay on your guard and if you see something flash past you it was something.

The weed bun: On average standing at 10 in in length and capable of reaching up to a surprising 3 feet the weed bun is another fairly common sight in the Hedge maze. With the appearance of a bunny, their body is made out of different kinds of weeds the most common being dandelions. Much like normal rabbits they do tend to be quite skittish some do have a more hostile nature. When grouped together in packs they are actually quite peaceful, running away and startling at the slightest movement on their own however they can be quite vicious. Rule of thumb ignore the solo bun.

Dizzying the daisies: Reaching up to a towering 15 ft tall these bizarre plants produce a unique pollen that causes those who get close to become dazed and disoriented. Their towering height and bright colors draw in the unwary only to leave them dazed and confused once they get too close. The longer someone is in their range and breathing in the pollen the more dazed and disoriented they become. Rule of thumb when around the daisies wear a mask or rush through.

Ferocious lilies: despite their massive forms the Ferocious lilies blend in quite well able to remain still for hours and even days at a time. Having the appearance of Boulders and statues covered in flowers easily blends in with the actual statues that litter the Hedge maze. Coming in a wide array of appearances and sizes but averaging at around 12 ft in length and 8 ft in height though some have been known to be as large as 30 ft. These creatures are patient predators but once something catches their eyes they will immediately come alive and we'll stop at nothing to get it. Despite having the appearance of flower-covered rocks they are flesh and Bone. Rule of thumb when encountering statues or boulders wait a moment to see if they breathe it's one of the few giveaways.

Sunny eyes: These sadistic sunflowers on their own can reach up to 8 ft tall each having a large eyeball at the center despite having no mouth they can speak and regularly torment those that come near. They can read the mind of those who get close using it to cause hallucinations Twisted nightmares have insults of their worst insecurities echo through their mind. However, as they grow and Blossom the sunny-eyed sunflowers will actually twist and merge into large bushes after enough of them merge together becoming one large bush they grow a complete face. The bushes are relatively harmless although they still regularly snicker and Whisper they are far more eerie than malicious. Rule of thumb avoid the sunflowers and ignore their taunting.
