An elderly man found hundreds of round, strange objects under his porch that looked like eggs: when he cracked one open, he froze in horror at what was inside 

For the past few days, the 70-year-old pensioner had hardly been able to sleep peacefully in his old house. Every night, strange noises came from under the porch — as if hundreds of tiny bodies were rustling against the ground, occasionally interrupted by a faint, chilling sound, like a whisper.

That night it became unbearable. Around three in the morning, the man couldn’t take it anymore: he grabbed a flashlight and a shovel and went outside. He followed the noise. When he reached the porch, he knelt down at the spot where the sounds came from and shone the beam of his flashlight into the darkness.

His breath caught: the ground was covered with hundreds of whitish-green oval objects, resembling large chicken eggs. Some were partly buried in the earth, others lay exposed on the surface.

What alarmed him most was that many of the eggs were beginning to change color — dark spots appeared on the shells, as if something inside was moving. With a trembling hand, the old man picked one up. It was warm and slightly moist.

— My God… what is this? — he whispered.

Mustering his courage, he struck the egg with the shovel. The shell cracked, and at that very moment the man froze: inside there was…  To be continued in the first comment 

From within emerged a writhing dark creature. It wasn’t a chick. It was a baby snake.

He barely had time to recoil when a menacing hiss came from the darkness. From under the boards slithered out a full-grown snake — thick, long, with glistening scales. It suddenly raised its head, opened its mouth wide, and lunged at the man.

Terrified, the old man nearly dropped his flashlight. He swung the shovel and ran without thinking. His heart pounded so hard it felt like it would burst out of his chest. Reaching his neighbors’ house, he called emergency services.

When the specialists arrived, they could hardly believe their eyes: under the porch there was indeed a huge snake’s nest, hundreds of eggs, and several adult snakes.

Under the porch it was warm and damp, which is why the snakes had laid their eggs there.

The area was cleared, the snakes removed, and the man was strictly forbidden from approaching his house until the site had been fully treated.
