Mysterious object appears on little girl's bedroom wall and mum doesn’t know what it is! - PHOTOS

A mum won't let her daughter sleep in her own bedroom after a mysterious object appeared on the bedroom wall.

The little girl spotted the weird thing and told her mum, who had absolutely no idea what it was.

The strange object is black or brown in colour and measures about 5cm by 3cm.


In a bid to try and work out what it was, she shared a photo on the parenting website Mumsnet.

She wrote: "DH [darling husband] just gone away for three days, otherwise he would talk me down I'm sure.

"But right now it's just me and the DC [darling children] and I've opened my daughter's room to discover this.... nest? Chrysalis?

"It's about 5cm x 3cm. Help!"

Other parents were equally terrified.

One wrote: "Good lord. I'm afraid I have no idea what that could be but I don't think I'd be staying in the house never mind the room so I applaud your bravery!"

Another added: "Omg this is horrible! I honestly am so intrigued yet so horrified. Uggh."

One mum added: "WTF. I'd be firebombing my house if I found that."

Others wanted her to poke it to see what happened.

The woman replied to these suggestions saying: "Briefly considered poking but I’m in charge of DC [darling child] so if I fall over in horror we are all a bit stuck.

"Just done 999 practice with DD just in case."

Some have suggested it could be a snail or a wasps nest, but others disagree.


One wrote: "I think snail too. I think he has been crushed so that stuff has stuck to his shell, but has managed to crawl up the wall. It isn't a nest, they don’t stick to walls like that. He is a poor, injured snail who needs to be outside eating rhubarb."

Another user replied: "Definitely looks like a snail. They hibernate so it's probably been hiding in a dusty nook in your house all winter. Attic or somewhere."

But another argued: "What kind of mutant f****** snails are rolling around the rest of the UK? Surely snails, look snail-shaped?"

Others had some possibly less helpful suggestions.

One said: "That is NOT a snail. It's a portal to another world. I'd move out!"

Another added: "It really does look like a vertically mounted zoo turd with a crust of mould....perhaps a zebra or giraffe wandered by?"

One mum suggested: "It's a Haggis!!! Rarely seen outside of their native Scotland I believe."

One requested: "Take a photo with your face RIGHT next to it so we can tell how big it is."
