So, I wasn't really expecting to do another one of these, but...

This actually happened a good number of years ago now when I was still in grade... five? Maybe six? Somewhere around that age.
Anyways.
I was sleeping soundly when I started feeling something moving on the end of my bed. I thought it was just my blanket falling off so I gave a little nudge with my foot, only for the movement to continue.
So, I sat up in the dark and put my hands on something scaly at the end of my bed. Being half asleep, the first thought I had was "Giant Caterpillar" and I went to lay down and go back to sleep.
As I was laying down, I woke up some more and realised that it definitely was NOT a giant Caterpillar and was in fact a snake. A carpet python, to be specific, and not a small one either.
I called out to my parents who were sleeping in the room next to me and they thought I just had a bad dream, until they saw the massive snake on the end of my bed. So they let me sleep in their room and we closed my bedroom door, intending to deal with the snake in the morning (it was somewhere close to midnight at the time).
But then it started knocking things off of shelves. So we ended up grabbing a pillow case, putting it inside, and then putting the snake outside before going back to bed.
You'd think that would be the end of the snake issue.
It wasn't.
The next morning my dad left the front door open for about five minutes, came back and the snake was climbing over our living room couch.
So, back into the pillow case it went and we drove it into a bushy area and released it there.
Only for the neighbour to say they had found the same snake in their house.
