A night in a hotel turned into a nightmare: a tourist noticed an unexpected guest in his bed

Parker Pannell decided to relax in his hotel room, but instead of a restful night's sleep, he received an unexpected surprise. A large crab was hiding in his bed.

According to Parker, he had just laid down when he heard a strange rustling sound under the sheets. Thinking it might be an insect, he began thoroughly checking the bed. He removed the blanket, pillow, and even the mattress cover. However, he found nothing suspicious.

However, the sounds continued. He then continued to investigate and saw something that "made his blood run cold": a large crab was nestled between the mattress and the wooden frame.

Parker, unfazed, attempted to carefully remove the unexpected "guest" with a towel. A video posted on Instagram* shows the crab scurrying along the edge of the bed before he deftly lifts it and points it out to the camera.

According to Parker, he was staying at a beachfront hotel, so it's likely the crab simply wandered into the room by accident. The man did not specify what he did to it, but commentators speculated that he returned the animal back to the sea.
