Snake story...I spent my childhood summers on the farm with my grandparents when school was out. I mean out in the country in SE Missouri.
They had an wood frame farmhouse that sit out between the cotton, soy bean, and corn fields,..anyway,
a 'snake' had gotten inside the wall between the kitchen and the living room. Well grandma would tell grandpa it was there and he'd go in kitchen
and listen at the wall and couldn't hear anything....this went on for a couple of days. She'd say "hear it, hear it,...there it is", he'd keep listening and would tell
her "aint nothing there..!!" Finally she told him "there it is, I can feel it moving in there"....he finally agreed there was something there, he told her to
get the broom and point the handle where she thought it was,......he took his 12 gauge and blowed a 2 foot hole through the wall.
What was left of that snake ended up in the living room in pieces. For years and years grandma would tell that story anytime someone would ask about
the big patch in the wall. She never mention anything about noises in the wall again....
