Scariest Thing You’ve Ever Seen In Your Backyard? – Great Answers Here

If you know me, you know I like to throw out odd questions on social media from time to time. I like to see (read) the always interesting comments that I get from those crazy questions.

My latest question to the wonderful world wide web, was "What is the scariest thing you've ever seen in your backyard?" I figured there would be some replies that I would have never expected.

As for me, nothing out of the ordinary in my backyard, except snakes. I don't have a fondness for snakes and those harmless snakes that slither in my backyard scare the heck out of me every time I stumble upon on unexpectantly. Good thing these backyard snakes aren't poisonous, otherwise I'd be in big trouble.

But what about the responses received regarding my question? The first response I saw was from Eric. P who commented 'My Neighbor.' And a few other's made the same comment. Now that's funny.

As for the others, well, take a look below and enjoy. There are comments recalling  some scary things and several really funny comments as well. Not sure they are true or not! And by the way, all photos are just stock photos. No real depiction of any people, animals or things...just sayin.
