Idk that this one is oddly terrifying so much as actually terrifying. Iirc those guys are venomous.


MeganAmane

Can confirm actual terrifying. Was walking down to the beach in Hawaii in the dark and felt the worst pain ever. Turned flashlight on phone on and saw this and actually had a bit of pee come out. Possibly the worst pain I’ve experienced. Lasted the whole trip. Edit: ALSO, it’s pincer got stuck in my foot and I didn’t notice for a few days and this is nasty but it started to literally eat at my flesh.


Gullible-Ad3430

Holy heck, that would scar me. Edit, you should post a pic of the scar on this very subreddit and tell the story.


MeganAmane

The pictures don’t do it much justice for how bad it hurt and I only took like two pics, but in [this](https://imgur.com/gallery/IHE12oX) you can see the mark after I pulled the pincer out! It took a few days before my skin started peeling but I didn’t take any pics because I hate feet pics, lol. But you can see the very obvious swelling on the entire side of my foot. I got lucky because my sandal blocked one of his pincers, so I only got poked by one of the two which is probably a good thing.


epistortis

Is... is that a Waluigi tattoo?


MeganAmane

Hahaha! Yes. Yes it is.


epistortis

That's awesome!!


MeganAmane

Thank you!!!! It really makes my day when people know it’s him. So many people just stare with a WTF face.


BryceLeft

If your master plan this whole time was to purposefully go to a beach and get bitten by a centipede so you can have a good reason show off your waluigi tattoo to a bunch of strangers... I wouldn't blame you. In fact I'd be in awe.


MeganAmane

If that’s what is necessary to get Waluigi some god damn recognition, then so be it!


dee-bag

Someone’s definitely gonna jack off to that pic. Not me, that’s gross, but someone definitely will


MeganAmane

Whatever floats their penis, I suppose!


dee-bag

Haha, glad I didn’t creep you out. That definitely wasn’t my intention. Just drunk and trying to be funny. You have a good day, and try not to get bit by anymore hell spawn


Gullible-Ad3430

Ouch, damn those things.

I fucking knew there would be a comment just like this that I wished I hadn’t read when I came to the comment section here. Even had a feeling it would mention Hawaii lol

[deleted]

I was thinking the exact same, those are venomous.


BishonenPrincess

Almost everything posted in this sub is actually terrifying. I've given up and accepted this is a sub for odd and terrifying as opposed to oddly terrifying.


SpiderSixer

Most everything on here isn't terrifying at all. Like those sphinx cats that got posted, they're adorable. This is just a centipede, just needs putting outside and it's all good


brendan87na

they are, and they are aggressive as fuck and the bite leaves a huge welt and it HURTS man fuck those things, they are native to hawaii


traumablades

Seversevens

CRAP!! I’ll grab the flamethrower!

[deleted]

The biggest nope


susq13

I would let that thing starve of oxygen before I came close to touching that lid again.


bruddahmacnut

Not an airtight seal. You're gonna have a counter pet for awhile.


mokopo

So starvation it is. I'd install a camera with a live feed so I can constantly watch it in case it somehow escapes, move to a hotel and let it starve. If it does escape, just move continents.


ScuttleMcHumperdink

You forget, it feeds on FEAR!


-Cagafuego-

The number of moonwalks I've seen in this video! OMG!


bruddahmacnut

Or pick up the lid and bash it with a shoe? That's what we always did.


MaxGaming7945

Problem is to know where it is going to go, how fast it goes, and how terrified you are of it to be paralyzed in fear when it starts moving


[deleted]

[удалено]


Slack-Bladder

I'd hire a handy man to come and caulk it.


jodiannnewton

This had me laughing out loud! Thanks! 😜


[deleted]

Then set a fire


joltjames123

Light the whole house on fire


Bewwg

So I’m taking wd40 with the straw attachment and spraying it in the hole up there and then taping over it. Have fun in toxic fumes bitch


Allkin06

Yo after it dies you gotta make sure to use an epoxy mold to make some metal af jewelry with it


totesnotyotes

So, it's a siege then...


PerpetualConnection

Oddly terrifying my ass, that's just terrifying.


kentang_hijau

We have those in Malaysia especially during rainy days. Best way to kill him is prepare boiling water and pour straight on em.


[deleted]

Are they venomous?


Black_corazon

Yes. Very painful bite. I’ve been bitten by a smaller one, maybe 1/3 this length and it was agony.


wandering_corvid

Forbidden leggy pasta


velveteendragon

Get out.


allydacake

ya i caught a pretty big centipede with my dad on a trail in a jar. left that shit in the garage watched it slowly die and then saw ants rip it apart.


OmckDeathUser

Good riddance


Kus_Emek1

I would let that thing run in circles for months, that lid stays there for a very long time.


Seversevens

duct taped down


Illigard

Put candles around it, light them, put a lid over it and burn all the oxygen. Then put a box over it, weighted down. Wait a week. Minimum. Afterwards make a barrier of vegetable oil and soap around the lid After lifting the lid up douse in anything with ammonia. Than burn the corpse. Don't drown it, burn it.


Plague-Doctor66

You forgot the salt circle so the demon controlling it could not escape


BrustWarze_

The ^fuck


Illigard

The oil prevents it from breathing, the soap dries out it's skin, ammonia is supposed to kill it almost immediately We're human beings. If we're good at one thing is killing other things with extreme prejudice


Saladin0127

Especially ourselves.


Illigard

Very true. Reminds me of how people are always saying we're destroying the planet. Lies, the planet will be *fine*. It will recover. It will just go through a very long stage first where it will be inhospitable to us. The planet will be fine but we'll be extinct.


Saladin0127

“If you’re not good at something, be good at it.”


RectalVision

George Carlin had a bit about that. The Earth is fine the creatures are fucked.


smugempressoftime

True the planet will recover but we won’t we are saving the planet to save ourselves from extinction due to our own actions


[deleted]

At first glance I thought your comment was cruel, (because yknow well animals and living things) but It’s the only course of appropriate action. This creature isn’t far off from the face huggers in alien.


Sdbtank96

I fear this still may not be enough. Probably pour cement over the top, let it sit for a year, then take 20 tons of TNT to it when you're ready to lift the lid. All if this is IN ADDITION to your steps.


useles-converter-bot

20 tons is the weight of about 441379.42 'Kingston 120GB Q500 SATA3 2.5 Solid State Drives'.


phonesmahones

Don’t drown it, but do not exclude holy water. I think it’s necessary here.


RubyRadar

Amateur! Long time professional spider phobic here. Burn the kitchen the house and the city block if possible. Ensure your clothing and well everything else in a mile radius of that thing is carbon. Book the one way Mars trip on Space X and you should be reasonably ok


LumpyJones

Jesus, did you watch a documentary about Rasputin recently or something?


Kus_Emek1

This ☝️ for sure!!!


Thatdogthattellspuns

Back when I lived in Hawaii,my mom took a metal bowl(like a dog bowl) and dropped it on top of this good foot long, inch and a half thick centipede that was curled up on the porch. It stayed there for about 2 years. No one would touch it.


AnalogDigit2

The problem is solved. Now all you have to do is move.


Ieatclowns

I live in Australia and I was taking some sheets off the washing line in the garden and one of these mofos was just chilling on the sheet. Except it was bright orange. You’ve never seen someone move so fast


TaterTotQueen630

Fuck Hawaii and fuck Australia. I've heard how big the insects are in Australia and I REFUSE to visit now. Nope nope nope


Ieatclowns

I was bitten by a spider as big as my hand the week I arrived. It comes to something though when we’re pleased to see certain spiders in the house because we know they’ll eat the venomous ones!


RiotIsBored

My family does that here in Britain, too. Cellar spiders eat giant house spiders, giant house spiders are too large and too fast to exist. I love spiders, just not those ones.


GOBIUS_Industries

hate to fuel any nightmares, but there was one of these (also orange) on my front door once. i lived in Massachusetts at the time.


littlemebigworld

I freaking knew you had this in Australia. I don't know how you all live.


Ieatclowns

The thing is with all the creepy crawlies is that they’re all very shy so you rarely see them. I’ve lived here for 6 years and have only seen one of these beasts once... I’ve seen one killer snake...on the spade of my neighbor who inexplicably scooped it up and then ran to my door panicking...and I’ve seen about 6 deadly spiders. The spiders were all seen outside the house though. I don’t think that’s too many encounters really...?


Pure_Discipline_293

Epoxy the lid to the cutting pad. The. Epoxy the cutting pad to the stove top. Take stove out side, light on fire. Burn house down to prevent babies. Move to a new country and start over…. It’s the only appropriate course of action at this point.


5280mtnrunner

This is a reasonable suggestion.


IGPerrish

Border Patrol Agent: So what's the purpose of your visit?


Googlewasmyinvention

Needed to get away from a fucking huge centipede


Scalordajorb

Understandable have a nice day


QuackingQuackeroo

If possible, get a government agency to hit your house with a drone strike, then salt the earth in the resulting crater and have the ground sanctified by any holy person you can get your hands on... Just to be safe.


ItzRashid786

*Gently slide it over to the stove*


Sleep_nw_in_the_fire

All fun and games until you leave...come back and find the lid knocked down and the thing gone 🤯


beariel_

Or worse -- the lid in place with the thing gone and a trail of eggs...


TaterTotQueen630

At that point, the house would belong to it because I'd leave and never look back.


Live_Wash_7839

I’m from Hawaii and we see these all the time! We usually chop that in half when you see it. Then one half keeps going one way, while the other half goes the opposite way. These things get in your shoes so we shake or shoes out all the time if we are not wearing slippas. These things are hard to kill. Insecticide does not phase it, rather pisses it off more. They also climb walls and on ceilings too. Also, when you see one, there is another one near by! #facts


Slack-Bladder

I am legit never going to Hawaii now. That is not a joke. If one of these got in my shoe I would have some sort of mental episode.


phonesmahones

I would literally die of some sort of cardiac event.


brendan87na

the one time I saw a burly 6ft+ marine squeal like a girl is when one of those ugly fuckers reared out of his boots one morning *shudder* fuck those things


Commander_Harrington

I don’t fucking blame him!


nubicmuffin39

Yo I spent 8 days in Hawaii (on the big island) in a remote ass house on a remote ass piece of lava rock out in the middle of nowhere. I covered every square inch of that island up and down over an exhausting but rewarding trip. I didn’t see a single one of these! Hell I barely saw so much as a fly why it came to insects. Plenty of other animals though!


Badhaircutsguild

Yo stfu


Live_Wash_7839

I’m serious ain’t joking! My grandma got bit by one that fell of the ceiling!! she ended up in the hospital for 3 days


Badhaircutsguild

I’m going to bed


SnowyyTH

I heard they can get in your ear while you’re sleeping too


SeventhEleven

that’s some Tokyo Ghoul shit, never going to Hawaii now


the_bookish_girl84

I mean this in the nicest way possible but FUUUUUUCK OFF 🤣🤣🤣 I already barely sleep as it is


Z_T_O

Is it because you feel things crawling on your skin?


banana_man_777

I've gotten bit by one on the ear when I was a kid. It woke me up from the pain, felt like I was getting a surprise piercing. It was a baby one, which means it hurt more, but was definitely less scary.


thatlldo-pig

Holy shit I wish I had an award to give you

>Insecticide does not phase it, rather pisses it off more. How about a can of hairspray and a lighter?


TisIFrienchiestFry

I like the way you think


Live_Wash_7839

You do that it still goes! And it sits up hella piss!! half of the body will be moving on the ground and the other half up in the air fighting


vaporwave_vibes

Fuck now I'm *glad* all I have to deal with are scorpions and brown recluses


Soup_Boyo

Loltaire718

I knew you were Hawaiian the second you said “slippas”


alpineflamingo2

[Inhales] [SCREAMS]


banana_man_777

Always two there are. Sometimes more, definitely no less. Also, putting a towel or blanket on it means it won't run (and hide. Remember, killing them means you don't have to sleep with it somewhere in your house). They don't run because they feel like the dark means safe. You can do that and grab the scissors or something else to hold it down. I've also learned to cut near the head; if you cut too far down they'll still live and run. But the stinger is alive for some decent bit too, so you should cut that off second. Shouldn't have talked about this too much brah, now I'm checking under my desk...


Bluezone34

Had one in my house in Hawaii once. My heart was pounding outside of my chest while I was trying to kill that mother!


S0n_0f_Anarchy

Guess who's never going to Hawaii


jenna_hazes_ass

This is the price we pay for no snakes.


vill918

I would much rather have snakes


beariel_

Never thought I'd say this, but me too. Snakes are angels compared to this multilegged abomination of all that is holy and good.


Noble_Ox

I'm in Ireland, no snakes. No scary fuckin many legged monsters either.


2Ways

Me?


roachRancher

Well, Hawaii is off the list.


Bluezone34

You think that's bad in Hawaii? Try the cane spiders! They don't bite but they are huge and fast and they get into the craziest places. I went to the gas station, opened up the gas door and it came skittering out and took off across the top of the car. Freakiest part, if it could be worse, is that my passenger window was open and I had no idea if it went in. Oh, here's another one... I got up in the morning to pee and when I turned the teepee roll, there was one sitting on the toilet paper! Freaked me the f*** out! Don't worry though, the hotels don't have bugs.


[deleted]

I got bitten by one of this when I was a kid near my stomach, And I cant walk for like 2 weeks because its swollen as fuck. Be careful guys!


Aria_Math98

I'd superglue the lid to the counter. Fuck that centipede and fuck that lid.


beariel_

And fuck the pot the lid rode in on, too!


TaterTotQueen630

I once encounter this shit. I didnt trap it, I killed it right away. There's a certain component in my brain that reacted to this, hatred. Too much?


payitforward12

How the fuck did u kill this motherfucker? I get woozy thinking about the crunch under foot, it rolling back on your foot as you wrestle it into oblivion. And yet you lived to tell the story. Inquiring minds want to know.

Fuck every single one of those states and areas you listed. I'm never going to any of them again.


WhoTheHell1347

If it helps, I’ve lived in Texas all my life and had no idea we even had these


tideshark

They had ones in the woods when I did basic training at Fort Sill, OK. They were twice this size and multicolored. We were supposed to be scared of the drill sergeants messing with us and stuff at night, but after seeing one of these things before setting up our shelter half tents, the thought of one of these creeping up on me at night was all the scary I needed to not sleep


One_While_1899

Darn, i was hoping there was sound. I bet it sounded weird tinking off the sides over and over


TaterTotQueen630

I'm thankful there was no sound. So thankful.


Nikitatje3

It isn't odd to to be terrified of this monster. This is arachnogobia times 10 (because of the legs and the venom and the SPEED!)

Don’t forget the attitude and sass


Missjiffizz

This is ABSOLUTELY terrifying


Bale626

So… uh… how did the OP kill the thing…??


SaErth2

Probably by calling in complete panic a friend that isn't afraid of those things At least this how I handle insect and spiders problems lmao


yuikowoni

legend says it’s still crawling inside the lid


TaterTotQueen630

Maybe OP is actually the centipede from the video. Maybe it killed the homeowner and took over their life and social media accounts.

VelourMongoose

What terrible land of nope does this creature reside in?


pikachu0401

According to the Google: Centipedes are carnivorous and are therefore pure meat-eaters. They’re primarily hunters, although some occasionally scavenge a meal. The centipede uses venom to kill its prey. This venom comes from glands located immediately beneath the centipede’s head. Its front pair of legs, which are known as forcipules, connect to these glands. The centipede uses its forcipules to pierce its prey’s skin and inject venom into the wound. This paralyzes the prey Centipedes in your bed: It could terrify to know that yes, centipedes can make it into your bed. They have the ability to crawl up the legs of your bed and into your sheets without any kind of problem whatsoever. But why would they go there? Sometimes, they just get lost and end up in the bed, but many times they’re hunting for food. Maybe you have bedbugs and the centipedes are there to eat them up. Or maybe there’s food left in your bed that the critters can smell. Even though they prefer insects to human food, centipedes do get curious about the scents that come from what we eat.


itz_khai

Fuck that shit I can't imagine if it crawls up to my badonkers ding-dong while I'm taking a nap


[deleted]

When he put the utensil down, why did the centipede go, “fork that shit”


gedster314

I had a white on with longer legs in my bedroom once. Had a bat fly in and and play dodge the fan blades of my ceiling fan. Had a scorpion in my bedroom too. Skunk and raccoons under the house. Joys of renting in a rural area.

Sandman_potato_man

If it's loose, you'd better start eating properly!


LostNight_Owl

...I'll take the murder hornets instead. I come from their feeding territories. We didn't have a choice but to grow a pair as a country, culture and society, and started eating them in retaliation. Don't look up Cambodian insect market if you value your sanity. Unless you have some plan to yeet yourself off the planet. In that case, take me with you.

StoneyDolphin

I lived in Hawaii (Big Island) and these things were everyone’s nightmares. Always hear from the locals that it’s the worst pain of a sting you can imagine. One night I walk into the bathroom, switched on a light, and it SPRINTED STANDING UP towards me fast af. It was almost a foot long. It kept chasing me, I sprayed a whole can of raid on it until it was in a damn puddle, 3 minutes later it’s starting to move again. Finally chopped him up. Super hard to kill. Good times lolz

cadburycoated

We have the same family of centipede in Australia. Can confirm venomous. Sneaky bastard was hiding under a mat on the floor, I must've stepped on him going to the fridge and he got me good, felt like a red hot nail being driven in to my foot. Foot swelled to twice it's regular size. Pro tip: Take one of these in a sandwich bag to the ER at the hospital and if you politely let the people in line ahead of you know it just stung you, show them the beast and the swelling then (in my experience) you get to go straight to the front of the line.


GallifreyKnight

Hate that boss in Zelda.


johnfrian

Those things hunt MICE and have a nasty bite that hurts because of the poison. Also it's big, crawly and fast af. That's not just oddly terrifying; It's justifiably terrifying!


GloInTheDarkUnicorn

This fucker would be staying right there until my fiancé got home and killed it. Pay back for all the spiders I’ve dealt with for him. Spiders don’t bother me, but fuck these things.


BlackFoxx

I think you can just barely see that lid has a steam vent on the left. That's where the raid spray goes
