THIS terrifying tree is one that children are certain to leave alone.
With its haunting beady eyes, twisted snout and crooked teeth the shrub has been dubbed the scariest in the country.
The un-fir-gettable 70ft beech was spotted by David Garnham in the grounds of Stowlangtoft Hall in Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.
And he 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.
Mr Garnham, a maintenance technician, said: "It really does show nature's true beauty and also says a lot about what the imagination can conjure up.
"It's a bit like the enchanted forest - where it moves towards you but stops when you look at it. I can't imagine too many children wanting to go climbing up that tree.
"I've called the photo 'Nature's Scream' because I think it does have an uncanny resemblance to Edvard Munch's classic work."
We don't know if we wood go anywhere near it.
