When people think about plants, they often think of the common trees, flowers, and bushes they see every day. Most don’t realize the world has tons of crazy foliage growing all over the place, some of which have the ability to kill any living thing that gets too close.
Who needs Triffids when we already have some otherworldly plants here on Earth?
Find here! 7 Terrifying plants want to kill you, if you are…..!
4Doll’s eye (Actaea pachypoda)
The actaea pachypoda, or doll’s-eyes, looks like a demon out of some Japanese horror movie, despite the fact it’s an all-American plant. While a white flower bearing a single black berry looks and sounds innocent enough, having ten or more of them staring at you from their, on average, two-foot-tall blood-red stalk is enough to give anyone the heebie jeebies. When you add the fact that the plant is poisonous is enough to kill a human, it magnifies the plant’s demonic nature.
Should anyone want to ingest the berries for whatever reason, he or she can expect a sedated heartbeat, along with hallucinations, dizziness, and possible death, meaning it could very well drag a person to the underworld. However, the poisons have no affect on birds, which is how its seeds are spread, and that means the birds are in cahoots with this plant. Any hiker who comes across the doll’s eye should stay far, far away.
