When you can't breathe, you can't scream.
Step back with me to the year 1997, I am only a teenager dating my husband and we go see this new hyped up horror movie Anaconda. Staring Jennifer Lopez, Ice Cube, and Jon Voight. We are in the theater, popcorn, pop - all the vitals, and Bam!!! a huge snake in swallowing a grown man whole. My husband jumped so high out of his seat that his hand (clenched into a fist) caught me in the face. He fears snakes, the bigger oh! well that's just a no no. and alot of people do.
Snakes are deeply misunderstood, and the most misrepsented of all snakes is the "Anaconda", "Common Anaconda", "Water Boa", " or (( gets goosebumps)) the "Green Anaconda". Hear my evil laughter echo! All are creepy looking but are not as dangerous as the most known poisoness snake humbling our world. "Anacondas" are constricters. (squeeze..pop!) A perfect weapon of horror to batter us with. "Ouch"
Anacondas belong to the "Boa" family of snakes. The Green Anaconda is the world's largest snake growing 6 to 9 meters or 19.8 to 30 feet. The longest and heaviest Green Anaconda, recorded by a scientist, was a female with a total length of 521 cm and a weight of 97.5 kg. 
The color pattern consists of olive green background overlaid with black blotches along the length of the body. The head is narrow compared to the rest of the body, usually with distinctive orange-yellow striping on either side. The eyes are set high on the head, allowing the snake to see out of the water while swimming without exposing its body. They spend most of there time in the water and can achieve speeds high speeds however appear slow and awkward on land due to their huge size. Anacondas are primarly nocturnal and have a wide diet. They will eat almost anything they can overpower. ( squeeze... ). Birds, mammals, fish, other reptiles. They will even comsume prey as large as deer and capybara, though this is rare. They are not man eaters.
Anacondas are the most dramatized and most feared predator portrayed in natural horror films. Terrifing images of grown men being swallowed alive and in one piece by these snakes, and despite the movie "Anaconda" poor ratings, not many have not seen or at least heard of it, and cannot deny the shock of special effects and weird humor to see John Voight get scarfed down and regurgitated all covered in gooey digestive juices.

Here is what some members commented back to me from my last horror/scarey newsletter. Voodoo... *fear*
Terrific editorial, Staine. I learned a really lot. Thank you. Jaye P. Marshall 
Thanks very much! 
Thanks so much for going over the truth behind voodoo/vodun. It's always fun to learn about something, especially when it's something that is completely misrepresented in society. And yes, demystifying something scary makes it, well, less scary. Though I'm sure horror movies/stories will continue to frighten. sarahreed
Thanks!!!
I leave you all alone in the shadows as I fade into wdc darkest places till next time I can spook you all. CandyStaiNeCane
