Waking up to a wild animal in your house is usually a rough way to start the day. However, one Richmond, Virginia, doctor just experienced the worst version of that scenario. Dr. Krista Edelman recently went viral on Instagram and TikTok after sharing the chilling story of how a bat attempted to crawl into her mouth while she was asleep. With over 1.2 million views, her story left people feeling more than a little uneasy.
Edelman told her viewers, “So, brace yourself, this is a bat PSA. So, this morning I was asleep, and I had a dream that there was a little mouse trying to get into my mouth.” Half asleep, she reached up to her face. She claimed, “I touch something that is kind of slimy and a little hairy and cool, and I immediately somehow knew it was a bat. This bat was legitimately trying to burrow between my lips into my mouth.”
