While brain worms have made many horrifying headlines this year, the good folks at the New England Journal of Medicine offer some fresh nightmare fuel ahead of Halloween: an ear spider. And there’s a video.
I can’t tell if this is sound medical advice or not. Seems legit, apart from perhaps alcohol might be too rough on the ear drum.
