A passive presence, not an active threat
Black Bunny is one of the documented enemies that doesn't actively pursue the player. It lingers at distance — corridors, edges of rooms — and persists until the area resets. Treat it as a marker that the zone is non-standard rather than an immediate combat encounter.
Why "do nothing" is the right counter
For most enemies, the counter is an item or an action. For Black Bunny, the documented response is recognition + avoidance. There's no item that consistently neutralises it across community guides, and active engagement risks sanity damage you wouldn't otherwise take. Note its location, complete your current room task, move on.
Where the documentation gets thin
This is one of the less-documented enemies in the catalogue. Community sources confirm its existence and the passive-presence behaviour, but specific counter mechanics aren't widely published. We've kept the entry at confidence: uncertain for that reason. If you've observed a reliable counter (item or action), the Sources page is where to contribute it.
