10 Creepy Plants

[Cheesy Potatoes]

I found an article online about 10 of the creepiest plants on earth. I found it really funny and interesting.

My favorite has to be the tenth one. I cannot really imagine something as creepy as that. It looks like it came straight out of a Stephen King novel. Plus, it oozes this red blood-like substance. I am confused on whether I should poke it with a stick or run away from it.

How about you guys? Which is your favorite? Do you know of another creepy-looking plant that wasn't on the list?

This article is very interesting, thank you for sharing it, Cheesy Potatoes.
All of those plants are so creepy and weird! Unfortunately, none of them grows in my area, I've never seen them in person.
My favorite are devil's claws:

I think the black batflowers are kind of pretty in a spooky way, like something Morticia Addams would have at her wedding. I hate the bleeding tooth fungus. It looks so evil.

Actually, the bleeding tooth fungus reminds me of gummy bears and raspberry syrup. In my opinion it looks like a really weird dessert that could be served on Halloween, haha. I'm pretty sure all children would like to try it

These plants are very special and not something I would like in my yard.

I like Buddhas head and the bat plant. I bet the last human looking one is fake. Isn't there some kind of plant whose flower smells like rotting flesh... What am I thinking of? Saw it on tv I think. Anyway thanks for sharing such a freaking bunch of plants. Isn't nature wonderful haha

The little creature in Pan's Labyrinth was a mandrake root and they do look kind of human.

Here's the animatronic mandrake root that was used in the movie.

Where is it that you live? You certainly have some peculiar plants wherever it is! Fascinating to look at though, thanks for sharing the pix.

Yeah, just like the one seen in one of the Harry Potter's films. I never thought there wee plants that looked so much like a little person, lol. The one in the article really looks like a small person!

OMG. Number 2 is crazy. How the heck do they even grow that way. It's crazy that they look so much like people. It's just odd and weird, yet crazy and cool.

Thanks for sharing this. It is truly amazing and apparently creepy what can be found in the natural world. Number 2 was my favorite, truly amazing!

Those are some creepy plants for sure! When I was a kid, there was this tree we all used to go to called the upside down tree. It looked like it was growing upside down like out of a horror movie. I don't know what kind of a tree it was though.

I live in the Philippines. From what I know, these plants do not grow in my area. I just found this article online and thought you guys might be interested in it.
