Brugmansia (Angel’s Trumpet, Devil’s Snare)

Source: Momtastic[/caption[
Found in the tropical regions of South America, Angel’s Trumpet seems like a perfectly lovely flower at first glance. If consumed, however, this flower can produce a deadly high. Brugmansia is an intense hallucinogen that, if consumed, can cause paralysis, confusion, tachycardia, dry mouth, diarrhea, migraine headaches, hallucinations, and death.
Historically, the plant was used by some South American cultures to discipline children as well as drug wives before they were buried alive with their dead husband.
