This incident is a creepy-crawly eerie event.

People reported a freakish incident where Desirae Kelly, a 29-year-old woman, woke up on the 18th of October at 5:00 A.M. upon feeling a ‘fluttering sensation’ in her right ear. She brushed it off as a bedroom comforter fluff that was tickling her ear and went back to bed.

She described the incident to People, “By the time that urgent care opened, I had almost talked myself out of going because I was like, ‘Oh, it’s all in my head. It was 5 a.m. I was tired,’” but decided to give it a scan on the insistence of his fiance, who she was about to marry in two weeks.

She explains, “I’m sitting in the waiting room, and that’s when I felt it move again. It was painful. It felt like something was at the base of my eardrum. In that moment, I was convinced it was wax,” adding, “And then I started crying, one, because it was uncomfortable, but two, I felt embarrassed that now they’re going to look in my ear, tell me it’s wax, tell me to clean my ear out, send me home, and I’m going to get a bill in the mail.”

The nurse who was examining her suggested that small kids usually get things stuck in their ears, and Kelly thought to herself, “I didn’t have the heart to tell her, first of all, I did not put a bead in my ear.” The nurse suggested that there was definitely something in her right year, and she recalled to People, “I didn’t even think about it being a moth!” adding, “And [the nurse] goes, ‘It’s curled up in the back.’ And that’s when the fear started to set in.”

Kelly continues to reveal horrific details of the procedure, “The nurse then begins to irrigate Kelly’s ear with “a water bottle with this tube, and they kind of set it at the base of your ear, and it sprays water in the back and it flushes it out. And I’m holding this little bowl under my ear, and she’s squirting and squirting and squirting, and the water’s coming out,” she recalls. “We’re dumping the bowl and we’re dumping, we probably dumped it three times. And then she goes over to the sink to refill the water. And while she’s refilling the water bottle, I feel it moving at the back of my ear. And she’s rushing back over and telling me, “Put the bowl up to your ear!”

She reiterated the moment, saying, “I watch, from the corner of my eye, something black fall from my ear to my sweater, and the nurse took a step back. She literally stepped back. It all happened so fast. She takes a step back and then immediately steps forward again and starts to grab and shake at the hoodie that I was wearing. I watch something jump from my shoulder to the ground. And then I watch it crawl. And that is when I realized it was a spider and that it was alive.” She further added, “I was looking at a live spider, and it wasn’t small,” adding, I would say it was about the size of a nickel.”

Kelly’s expression thereafter, which she filmed on TikTok, went viral, as she tells People, “They had to give me a bag to throw up in because I was gagging. It was so traumatic. And I’m throwing up, I’m watching as they’re putting this clear medical container upside down over the spider [on the floor]… I was sobbing.”

After the horrific incident, People confirms that Kelly and her ear are completely intact as she says, commenting on the rampant spider situation in Missouri, “I knew the seal on our back door in our bedroom needed to be replaced, which let me tell you, it has now been replaced,” adding, “So, chances are it was just crawling across the pillow, which is so unsettling to think about. And it had to have been the perfect setup for it to crawl into my ear.”
