The Whispergrass has a long pot-like face. And a freaky tiki face makes it look a bit scary. Its body and limbs are like twigs. It has sharp little claws & sharp little teeth. Its eerie hissing makes minds in the vicinity blur, it befuddles the brain. Cowardly people sometimes black out. Though it can be bloted out easily, 1 out of 100 fall victim to it. After the victim loses consciousness, the Whispergrass crawls out of the hole, & drags the victim in. Even some small animals are relished. Its hair or “grass” is mildly poisonous, if you make tea from that, you’ll have serious tummy trouble.

Very informative! Which is the natural habitat of whisper grass? Can it be propogated or grows only naturally? Giving common Indian names .. at least in Hindi or Gujarati (or Marathi even) will be good. Thanks!

That’s a really interesting question. Its natural habitat is given in the description above, though it’s found in forests also. It is an animal, and cannot be “propagated”. In Marathi, the Whispergrass is known as हिरवाकोल.
