A family has been left terrified after a snake slithered across their kitchen floor - before disappearing. Clare Farrell, 41, said it went behind her family's dishwasher and hasn't been seen since.
They were getting ready for dinner when the snake, which was about 3ft long and believed to be a corn snake, suddenly moved across the floor on Saturday evening. The snake, which isn't venomous be can bite, was thought to have escaped from a nearby property, reports the M.E.N.
Clare said the snake had spooked her, her four children and her mum, 74, who lived in an adjoining flat to the family's home. Clare lives there with daughter Isabelle, 14-year-old twins Sammy and Freya, James, aged eight and seven-month old baby daughter Sienna.
