Ha! I just realized something. When Joss Whedon was writing for the Anya character in his Buffy the Vampire Slayer TV series he included that she is very frightened of rabbits. This is odd because she had been a powerful demon (now turned human) who'd been around since the Dark Ages. When she was a human back then she liked rabbits. Had she seen how they turned to killers in later centuries? Whedon no doubt knew of the Monty Python killer rabbit but it's very possible he knew of this medieval stuff. He is very well read. It's just the kind of inside joke he likes.
