A girl found 60,000 bees in her closet after thinking there were monsters in there. Turns out, she wasn’t wrong!

Charlotte Girl Discovers 60K Bees In Her Closet
Hearing monsters in the closet is something every kid goes through. As a parent, you have to tell them there’s nothing there. They’re just hearing things or it’s in their imagination. However, you never expect there to actually be some sort of monster in there. In this case, that monster is 60,000 bees.
Sure, it’s not Monsters Inc. but finding 60K bees in her closet had to have been shocking for this young girl and her family. According to BBC, a beekeeper discovered tens of thousands of bees above the girls bedroom. The family got heat cam video of these bees in her closet and it’s scary stuff! Personally, I think there are few things scarier on this earth than bees. Their look, their sound, their stingers–all of it gets me. I’m more afraid of them now than when I was young! This would be my personal nightmare.
Months went by with young Saylor saying she heard something in her closet, but her parents wrote it off as her being a kid–she had just seen the movie Monsters Inc., after all. So, it made sense that she would develop that feeling and fear. However, they never expected to actually find 60,000 bees in her closet.
BBC reports the bees would have spent 8 months building this massive hive. You know it’s a big deal when even the beekeeper tells you they’ve never seen anything like this or a hive that went that far down into the wall. BBC reports that the honeybees damaged the house’s electric wiring but the homeowner’s insurance won’t cover anything pest-related because it’s considered preventable.
