When Donna Porée, a 22-year-old woman, returned to her flat after staying away for three months,witnessed a shocking scene. In her absence, a sack of potatoes, reportedly kept against a wall in her home, turned into something which we often see in the really scary sci-fi films.

“Before realizing that it was a lot of potato sprouts, I was frightened by the silhouette of the long stems against the wall,” she told HuffPost. Then she added that her initial scare turned into laughter after she realised what she was looking at.
