 A tree is seen in Suffolk, England, in this file photo taken in May 2011. With its haunting beady eyes, twisted snout and crooked teeth, this tree has been dubbed one of most terrifying in Britain as it appears to dribble slime from its gaping mouth. Located in the grounds of Stowlangtoft Hall, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk, the 70ft tall beech looks reminiscent of the Whomping Willow tree in Harry Potter or an enchanted Disney forest. Local David Garnham took the pictures, and believes the bizarre tree - which also appears to have a twisted tongue forking from its mouth - looks like nature's very own version of Edvard Munch's classic Scream painting.
