These Little Black Hands had been preparing their strategy early. They planned to instil an unprecedented fear into these people.
Although they were not entirely confident... It didn't affect their decision to enter the scene.
It took them a considerable amount of time to decide upon their appearance.

Coming from an unseen place can lead to an unexpected effect; the less visible, the more shocking and frightening it will be. When something mysterious pops up out of nowhere, many find it startling and overwhelming.
