The snake creeps through the wall crack

In the clip, a small snake is seen moving inside an unpainted, plastered wall. It coils itself slightly, tries turning around, and then slides right back inside the crack like it owns the place. The household started screaming as panic set in, and honestly, same.

The wall looks like it was newly built, and the snake slipping into it gave serious haunted house energy. With the snake vanishing, some people couldn't even process to keep living there, knowing it might still be lurking around.
