if you told yourself every night that the unnerving scraping and clicking sounds couldn't actually be a horrible, unseen, lurking bug, and it was probably the wind and house noises and then you were confronted by himwhen you tried to step outside and now you're trapped possibly for good.

one night in my dorm room i was sleeping on my back with my arms above my head. i was awakened by something walking across my palm. i sat up and flung the object across the room and squealed like the girl i am and awoke the whole suite. cue a night of 4 girls squealing and screaming and throwing shoes at this thing. then laying in bed with the lights on staring at the ceiling waiting for dawn to come.

that used to happen to me at least once per summer. hopefully it won't anymore.

that appears to be some kind of weta. be careful with it because if it feels threatened it will hiss and bite. the bites are strong enough to draw blood

Pretty much picking it up will make it bite. So just trap it in a plastic cup and throw it outside.

I linked a picture gif above to show you it tearing that lady's hand apart.

WETA GONNA GETCHA.

Do you live in New Zealand? You must cause thats where they're from.

it may not be a weta, but i haven't let go of the idea that it might have been radicalized by a foreign element.
